I will, in fact, claim that the difference between a bad programmer and a good one is whether he considers his code or his data structures more important. Bad programmers worry about the code. Good programmers worry about data structures and their relationships.
Linus TorvaldsI'm basically a very lazy person who likes to get credit for things other people actually do.
Linus TorvaldsIn my opinion MS is a lot better at making money than it is at making good operating systems.
Linus TorvaldsI'm not a big believer in revolutions. What people call revolutions in technology were more of a shift in perception - from big machines to PC's (the technology just evolved, fairly slowly at that), and from PC's to the internet. The next "revolution" is going to be the same thing - not about the technology itself being revolutionary, but a shift in how you look at it and how you use it.
