One of the questions I've always hated answering is how do people make money in open source. And I think that Caldera and Red Hat - and there are a number of other Linux companies going public - basically show that yes, you can actually make money in the open-source area.

Avoiding complexity reduces bugs.

An infinite number of monkeys typing into GNU emacs would never make a good program.

I want my office to be quiet. The loudest thing in the room - by far - should be the occasional purring of the cat.

Hmmm, completely a-religious - atheist. I find that people seem to think religion brings morals and appreciation of nature. I actually think it detracts from both.

We all know Linux is great...it does infinite loops in 5 seconds.

I actually don't believe that everybody should necessarily try to learn to code. I think it's reasonably specialized, and nobody really expects most people to have to do it. It's not like knowing how to read and write and do basic math.
