I want to bet this dude is a giant asshole. Not sure why people keep making a hero out of him, he sounds like an awful person.
Maybe, I've never met him, but that changes nothing.
Linus Torvalds is a giant asshole and he doesn't know how to talk to people, he's still one of the most important people in tech.
Linus is not an asshole, he's just right and tells his opinions straight without playing games. That's called honesty.
Being right and being an asshole aren't mutually exclusive. One is what you're saying, the other is how you're saying it.
