       tfw you can't write C and will never have to deal with the mailing list but you still feel strongly that kernel hackers should be assholes

       @ACE_Recliner @scarlett kernel hackers are wizards, they're pretty much granted the privilege of being assholes to us mere mortals

       @scarlett@catgirl.science @wowaname@anime.website Yeah I would say the issue is a whole lot more complex, you're going to find the full spectrum of human emotions and personality types in any kind of software development venture and kernel hackers are no exception.  Sure there are assholes (not as many as you'd think), but you'll also find nice, polite, firm, salt of the earth people as well.  It all just depends where you look and who you end up talking to.

       @scarlett Kernel hackers should be assholes, and be damn good at their job.
