Intel transformed from a technology company to a management company. That somewhat explains their highly unreasonable behavior.
Management can seriously make or break a company in various ways. It sucks... :/
In case it’s unclear to anyone, David Woodhouse (the person Linus is replying to / previous poster) works for Amazon and previously Intel[1] aka @dwmw2 on Twitter, ironically his twitter profile is: “Kernel hacker. Known to occasionally promote an attitude of violence towards complete morons.” *[1] Correction, I thought (as does Google) that he still worked at Intel, but it was pointed out that he now works at Amazon…
Thanks for this, the beginning where he quotes himself threw me off.
Why do people censor words like that? They are not fooling anyone.
They are fooling the content filters some corporate services use to block emails though.
I think we should count ourselves lucky we have someone so good at spotting bullsh*t like this - and isn’t afraid to call it out as they sees it. Intel & friends have absolutely disgusted me lately, it could be all to easy to settle for less based on their standards, but let’s not let them set the standard - they’ve shown they can’t be trusted with quality and when they fail - they can’t be trusted to be transparent…
Many business failures i've witnessed happened ultimately because nobody had the energy to cut down the bullshit forest that constantly regrows around a company.

Edit: Just to make this clearer you can see his email in the Signed-off-by of the patch under discussion: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/20/163

This isn't the case, he works for Amazon. Unless he also works for Intel but that seems unlikely. Edit: Just to make this clearer you can see his email in the Signed-off-by of the patch under discussion: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/20/163
I would really respect Intel if they would.
Furthermore, we are left to wonder if Microsoft is also being fed “bullshit” patches, and if they may be less discerning than Linus regarding a proper solution.
