Do you guys remember when Linus denied C++ because it's used by "substandard programmers" and "it's much much easier to generate a total and utter crap with it"?

old man is in love with the slop machine he is being bought off with, because it's the only thing on earth that apologizes obsequiously like a beaten slave, when he lets out another one of his infamous abusive rants.

And most of what I come up with are abstractions that later turn out not to fit. It's almost better for everyone that AI writes simple, redundant code. It's easier to change later, and it's more readable by AI.

linus is showing a welcoming attitude to AI which arguably has the same problems that he had complained about.

One big difference is that C++ compiler developers didn't offer him money, and didn't donate him computer resources for Linux. But maybe, in a parallel universe, Linux has a class named `AbstractOpenGLGraphicsDriverFactoryFactory`.

Form very strong opinions on a subject Defend it dogmatically and rudely Contradict yourself as soon it makes your life easier Repeat I respect Linus a lot, but he could use some anger management
