KernelTrap Interviews Andrea Arcangeli

An anonymous reader writes "Andrea Arcangeli completely rewrote the 2.4 Linux kernel virtual memory subsystem several years ago, a surprising event during the evolution of a stable kernel series. A very intelligent 27-year-old from Italy, Andrea spoke with KernelTrap in great detail about the past, present and future of his Linux kernel efforts. An interesting interview ."

    Some of the biggest advances come out of people who don't succumb to the brainwashing of the formal education system. What's the point of getting schooled in the same mediocre theory everyone else is getting schooled in? College is useful for people who need it, but for the rest of us who can think for ourselves, and be imaginative on our own, it's just a system to make money by selling expensive parchment. Why do you feel you need a piece of paper to tell you who you are? It's such a crock.
