New rule for filesystem developers (feditown.com)

Linux filesystem developers MUST have a pair programming session at least once a week to stave off psychosis.

Frequency of sessions MUST be increased as symptoms show or worsen.

Yeah... Maybe expand it a bit and include mandatory therapy and a beer league softball club (they don't need to drink, but it is very okay to be terrible at the game).

Edit: My anonymity and brevity edits may have gone too far. This is not just about filesystem developers, but several kernel module developers I have interacted with.
