Yes, who haven’t had a glass of red wine, relaxing music and some inline assembly…

To be fair, he merged the original version and not his own… at least not yet until it have been properly tested.

It’s good that he says it’s not tested, but the point of sharing code that potentially doesn’t work, escapes me, other than as a hobby.

Proofs of concept are a very common thing everywhere. Sometimes it’s easier just to show code instead of explaining everything, which was the case here.

I think proof of concepts are a waste of time for everyone involved, unless the person actually completes the work. Otherwise, it’s just a matter of some guy whining to get help only to get the credits later for it being “his idea”.

I think any person who thinks writing such code manually is a good idea for many different devices lacks intelligence. Apparently, Torvalds thinks he has done something useful, which only signals to me how far out of touch he is with modern engineering.

It’s annoying that so many people are so stupid these days. An Internet on which not every moron could go, must have been paradise.

I’m wondering who actually is out of touch here. You don’t seem to understand fundamental concepts and instead of thinking about what a “proof of concept” is, why they exist and what benefits they bring.

Nobody knows you and by that you didn’t contribute anything to the global community but seem to think that you are more accomplished than Linus Torvalds. Do you even know who that person is?
