From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I imagine Ted T'so and dis stupid 'thin blue line' comment as well as him yelling at previous rust devs during in person meet ups was not happening in a vacuum.
Linus has really failed at punishing these characters before toxcitiy killed any rust momentum at all.
I hadn't heard of that comment, which wasn't as dumb as it sounds, though some obvious solutions were overlooked and the phrasing wasn't great.
