That just explains Torval’s attitude, which I just explained to you first (by the way) but it doesn’t explain your statement that “all of Linux is now poisoned“.

That’s gonna require a substantial amount more proof than a philosophical position taken by Linus Torvalds

(to be clear: I’m pretty anti AI myself, and I don’t agree with Torvalds position, and I’m definitely not arguing in Support of it)

    "Linus Torvalds used AI to fix a Linux bug" <-- literally spelled out in the headline.

    1600 commits contain the word "claude" alone: https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Atorvalds%2Flinux+claude&type=commits

    It's so easy to find out, yet you insist that you are right. Hilarious.

    The only thing that’s “hilarious“ here is how you’ve interpreted one thing to fit into your perception of another.

    On the other hand, I find it rather sad, especially how, in a single sentence, you seem to see several things that just… aren’t there….

    And I get the argument that you’re trying to make, but you’re making it very badly.
