Linus Torvalds Calls Joseph a Moron

Btw, Joseph, you're a quality example of why I detest the github interface. For some reason, github has attracted people who have zero taste, don't care about commit logs, and can't be bothered. The fact that I have higher standards then makes people like you make snarky comments, thinking that you are cool. You're a moron. Linus

A dark-mode screenshot shows a long, aggressively worded comment criticizing GitHub’s interface, its users, and their lack of care for commit logs, ending with the blunt insult “You’re a moron.” The punchline is the signature-like “Linus” at the bottom, implying the comment was written by Linus Torvalds and exaggerating his famously abrasive opinions about software quality. It is shared as an absurd reaction to pretentious or overly harsh online criticism.
