TIL that operating system Linux is an example of anarcho-communism
(en.wikipedia.org)
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 think even he realized his tocicity was a problem a few years ago, so he took time out to work on that and seems much more balanced now.
It's unkown whether he improved his temper or whether he just built a very good mail filter for himself though.
That's fair, but the result seems to be the same; he's nowhere near as caustic when interacting with people as he used to be. I had quite a lot of sympathy with the message in most of his technical rants, but the delivery was counterproductive. If he's changed that I think he's done well.
