Comment on How I got promoted to staff engineer twiceparent

Comments

Sports and programming just aren't comparable. Some finnish student wrote the linux kernel my man, while living with his parents.

Have you ever heard the expression "the exception that proves the rule"?

Also I love how you think the Linux kernel is valuable because Linus started it and not because millions of hours have been invested in it by other engineers (most of whom are employed by big corps).
