If you start doing things because you hate others and want to screw them over, the end result is bad.

I never try to make any far-reaching predictions, so much can happen that it simply only makes you look stupid a few years later.

Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about data structures and their relationships.

One of the reasons that I really don't mind that people are selling Linux commercially is exactly because it does make me feel good that people use the product.

It was such a relief to program in user mode for a change. Not having to care about the small stuff is wonderful.

I've actually found the image of Silicon Valley as a hotbed of money-grubbing tech people to be pretty false, but maybe that's because the people I hang out with are all really engineers.

What I find most interesting is how people really have taken Linux and used it in ways and attributes and motivations that I never felt.
