KernelTrap Interview With Rusty Russell
Jeremy Andrews writes "KernelTrap has interviewed Rusty Russell, a humorous and productive contributer to Linux Kernel development. Author of ipchains, netfilter/iptables, futexes, per-cpu counters, hot pluggable CPU support, and the new in-kernel module loading code, Rusty's efforts have had a significant impact on the upcoming 2.6 kernel. For a humorous sample of Rusty's wit, one only needs to look at his email signature which reads, 'Anyone who quotes me in their sig is an idiot. -- Rusty Russell.'" Rusty is a great guy, and this is a worthwhile read.
While we at BASH are yet unable to cure niggerism (or any other such God-inflicted curse of skin pigmentation), we have had record success turning limp-wristed, "Queer Eye" watching nancy-boys and bull-dyke lesbians back in to straight, God-fearing, Republican-voting human beings!
All we need is your pious financial support, plenty of imprecatory prayer and a good-sized, Leviticus-charged stone or two, and soon the GNAA will be a thing of the past!

If you or anyone you know exhibits these signs they may be a homosexual and at risk of joining Satan's Army, or the GNAA.
Rusty is a great guy. He's doesn't get the credit he deserves. I met him at a LinuxCon a few years ago. Most kernel developers are stuck up pricks, but not Rusty. And he tosses salad like a pro too!
Congratulations on your purchase of a brand new nigger! If handled properly, your nigger will give years of valuable, if reluctant, service.
INSTALLING YOUR NIGGER.
You should install your nigger differently according to whether you have purchased the field or house model. Field niggers work best in a serial configuration, i.e. chained together. Chain your nigger to another nigger immediately on unpacking it, and don't even think about taking that chain off, ever. Many niggers start singing as soon as you put a chain on them. This habit can usually be thrashed out of them if nipped in the bud. House niggers work best as standalone units, but should be hobbled or hamstrung to prevent attempts at escape. At this stage, your nigger can also be given a name. Most owners use the same names over and over, since niggers become confused by too much data. Rufus, Rastus, Remus, Toby, Carslisle, Carlton, Hey-You!-Yes-you!, Yeller, Blackstar, and Sambo are all effective names for your new buck nigger. If your nigger is a ho, it should be called Latrelle, L'Tanya, or Jemima. Some owners call their nigger hoes Latrine for a joke. Pearl, Blossom, and Ivory are also righteous names for nigger hoes. These names go straight over your nigger's head, by the way.
CONFIGURING YOUR NIGGER.
Owing to a design error, your nigger comes equipped with a tongue and vocal chords. Most niggers can master only a few basic human phrases with this apparatus - "muh dick" being the most popular. However, others make barking, yelping, yapping noises and appear to be in some pain, so you should probably call a vet and have him remove your nigger's tongue. Once de-tongued your nigger will be a lot happier - at least, you won't hear it complaining anywhere near as much. Niggers have nothing interesting to say, anyway. Many owners also castrate their niggers for health reasons (yours, mine, and that of women, not the nigger's). This is strongly recommended, and frankly, it's a mystery why this is not done on the boat
HOUSING YOUR NIGGER.
Your nigger can be accommodated in cages with stout iron bars. Make sure, however, that the bars are wide enough to push pieces of nigger food through. The rule of thumb is, four niggers per square yard of cage. So a fifteen foot by thirty foot nigger cage can accommodate two hundred niggers. You can site a nigger cage anywhere, even on soft ground. Don't worry about your nigger fashioning makeshift shovels out of odd pieces of wood and digging an escape tunnel under the bars of the cage. Niggers never invented the shovel before and they're not about to now. In any case, your nigger is certainly too lazy to attempt escape. As long as the free food holds out, your nigger is living better than it did in Africa, so it will stay put. Buck niggers and hoe niggers can be safely accommodated in the same cage, as bucks never attempt sex with black hoes.
FEEDING YOUR NIGGER.
Your Nigger likes fried chicken, corn bread, and watermelon. You should therefore give it none of these things because its lazy ass almost certainly doesn't deserve it. Instead, feed it on porridge with salt, and creek water. Your nigger will supplement its diet with whatever it finds in the fields, other niggers, etc. Experienced nigger owners sometimes push watermelon slices through the bars of the nigger cage at the end of the day as a treat, but only if all niggers have worked well and nothing has been stolen that day. Mike of the Old Ranch Plantation reports that this last one is a killer, since all niggers steal something almost every single day of their lives. He reports he doesn't have to spend much on free watermelon for his niggers as a result. You should never allow your nigger meal breaks while at work, since if it stops work for more than ten minutes it will need to be retrained. You would be surprised how long it takes to teach a nigger to pick cotton. You really would. Coffee beans? Don't ask. You have no idea.
MAKING YOUR NIGGER WORK.
Niggers are very, very averse to work
I prefer talking with his daughter, Georgie Russel...
I've worked with Rusty back in 1978 at TeleSys Interactive where we designed the DEC Alpha along with the folks at Sony. Rusty was great in creating and then subsequently optimizing the assembly code for the modular interface which we used in our token ring network. He also designed our own TCP stack which proved to be quite efficient and ended up being used at Datsun in the mid 90s when they became disenchanted with the progress that the Amstrad folks were showing.
It was a pleasure working with him and we still keep in touch, although I've retired from the IT field and have pursued more holistic goals.
Which is nice.
are you an idiot?
because to the rest of us you look like a raving blathering one.
someone who knows absolutely nothing about that which he speaks.
I.E. a complete and utter moron... you might as well be suffering from turets...
only a total dimwit with an iq below 60 thinks that.
oh wait... after reading your previous posts to slashdot I see that you really are... sorry.. i hate to insult the handicapped.
does someone need to take you to the potty?
and my signature says:
...can you believe it?

"Fuck YOU!"

100% true! I also met rusty, not only is he a fabulous salad tosser, but his Cleveland steamers are to die for!
Too bad he's such a dick about supporting the libiptc API. It's pretty confusing to use, and his asshole wit shows up in what little documentation there is.
There's my 2c about Rusty Russel.
I agree with the IBM comment. But this looks like an attempt by a Slashdot wanna-be to get his name out there. Come up with your own idea, don't copy a great site and attempt to call it your own.
