    If my boss ever spoke to me like that about a mistake, I would straight up quit. Either be respectful or get fucked, that goes doubly so for a non-profit relying on the good will of contributors.

      I think Linux has grown beyond the good will from contributors. I got the sense most folks do this as part of their job.

      So it’s not your boss. It’s someone who you have to make happy to do your job. And your boss can’t help. Quitting won’t help. Not if you want to work on the kernel.

      In that case, the high stakes world of kernel management is probably not for you.

      Please leave and give me the job instead. It’s the fucking Linux kernel we’re talking about; mistakes can mean many, MANY bad things happening to production environments

      Your boss would probably do worse, and fire you instead. Now it isn’t just your fee fees being violated, it’s your living wage disappearing.

      As such, this comparison isn’t really useful.

        Only a shit boss would fire someone for making mistakes instead of correcting them.

        Also drop the whole pretentious right whinger act, you’re not a tough guy online.

          Most bosses are shitty.

          I’m not a right winger, nor acting as one. Stop making shit up / assuming shit about other users as a diversion tactic, and stick to the discussion.
