In engineering, being right is essential and trumps everything else. Being polite is professional but optional. If being polite is placed on the same level as (or above) being right, the project is essentially dead.
He has to be a jerk to keep kernel quality high. There is no other way. Same as you have to be a jerk (at least temporary) when grading exams, for example.
I don't think so. I think he will just learn to be cutting and harsh in a polite way. It is not that hard to utterly destroy somebody while staying perfectly polite and seemingly not even getting personal at all.
In fact, Linus demonstrated here that he can do this. (Yes, AmiMoJo is not only an SJW, but also deeply stupid...)
Indeed. And as soon as a car is in "full nanny" mode (and we will see that, too many humans are just unsafe drivers and that will give us self-driving cars as the only choice eventually), all responsibility for accidents is with the manufacturer.
With power and control comes responsibility. A mythical "supreme being" is not exempt from that.
Also most conservatives. Just look at the current moron-in-chief: Nothing is ever his fault.
People that recognize their mistakes and learn from them generally do not go into or care much about politics. Politics is a dirty and corrupted field because it does not care about facts, ethics and rationality, and at the same time lies egregiously about that. Unless the human race manages to overcome politics (and with that greed for power), it is what will kill it. I am not hopeful.
Obviously what I think is very relevant to you or you would not have bothered to answer. A nice failure on your part that provides a good estimator for your level of rationality.
Also, what makes you think China is spying because it needs to? I think it spies on US businesses because it is _easy_. Incidentally, the US does a lot of economic espionage as well and has been doing so for a long, long time, even if the NSA does not admit it openly. Does the US do that spying because it needs to?
Classical behavior of a country in decline: It is never their fault (in truth, it universally is), it is always "enemies" that "sabotage" and "steal secrets". As a result, they never fix the problems that actually bring them down.
The truth is that China probably does not need to steal many US secrets by now.
An analogy is not an analogy when it grossly misrepresents what is going on. Then it is just a lie. But I can see you just want to promote your messed up view of the world.
They are not. They are faster at doing simple transformations on digital information. In the analog space for difficult problems (and learning language certainly is a difficult problem) computers are somewhere between very slow and incapable.
That one would tell you that the robot would be several orders of magnitude slower. If you actually had that knowledge. Electronics is slow and large in comparison to neural tissue.

Bullshit. But the SJWs and other scum do so love their laws and rules and bureaucracy. When you people take over, everything dies in the end.

Yelling is optional, putting them on the blacklist is not.

We will see what happens when the first self-important moron does not get it.
Sure, the Journals did not shut down. But they either switched to English or now allow English in addition.
That has been over for a while now. The last German-language Chemistry journal shut down something like 10 years ago.
Indeed. That is the other explanation, and it seems more and more likely to me.

There is no way to deduce you meant that. I assumed you meant a 2nd Google account (for whatever purpose). But thanks for the clarification.
Google offers ssh login with remote X11? Interesting. Not that I have any use for that, really, but interesting nonetheless.

Car manufacturers are not omnipotent. Stop lying.
True.
Indeed. Truly staggering. Something seems to be badly broken in the brains of the people behind this.
And I will generally avoid logging in in the first place. Fortunately I need their poisoned "services" only very rarely.
You are mistaken. You should not project yourself onto others....
Indeed. Good point.
I am nor a naysayer. I am a technology expert. Not sure whether you are equipped to understand the difference though.
