Kernel 6.8-rc2 debuts after very robust discussion about 'inodes'
Linus Torvalds criticized a Google contributor on the Linux kernel mailing list for his suggestions about filesystems.
The debate centered around the use of inodes as unique identifiers for metadata on a filesystem.
Torvalds’s strong language and tone in his response to the contributor were reminiscent of his past flippant attacks, for which he previously apologized.
Linus might be an asshole but he’s actually competent. Elon Musk is a fucking joke of a person. Not to mention Linus hasn’t done anything that compares to things like Elon suing his way into being a “founder” of Tesla and kicking out the actual founders.
