The Culture War Comes to Linux - Motherboard
▻https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/yw43kj/what-happens-if-linux-developers-remove-their-code
After #Linux adopted a new Code of Conduct, a small group of programmers threatened to rescind their code from the project. Lead Linux developers say the threat is “hollow.”
A small group of programmers are calling for the rescission of code contributed to Linux, the most popular open source operating system in the world, following changes made to the group’s code of conduct. These programmers, many of whom don’t contribute to the Linux kernel, see the new Code of Conduct as an attack on meritocracy—the belief that people should mainly be judged by their abilities rather than their beliefs—which is one of the core pillars of open source software development. Other developers describe these attacks on the Code of Conduct as thinly veiled misogyny.
It’s a familiar aspect of the culture war that many online and IRL communities are already dealing with, but it has been simmering in the Linux community for years. The controversy came to the surface less than two weeks after Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux, announced he would temporarily be stepping away from the project to work on “understanding emotions.” Torvalds was heavily involved with day to day decisions about Linux development, so his departure effectively left the community as a body without a head. In Torvalds’ absence, certain developers seem committed to tearing the limbs from this body for what they perceive as an attack on the core values of Linux development.
So far, these threats haven’t actually resulted in developers pulling code from the Linux kernel, but some Linux contributors fear that this controversy could snowball to the point where significant chunks of the Linux kernel are revoked from use. This would have huge ramifications for anyone online, given that most internet services used on a day to day basis run on Linux. I spoke with a number of Linux developers about the source of the controversy, what could be done to improve the Code of Conduct, and why they think these threats to implement a Linux “killswitch” are totally overblown.

After Years of Abusive E-mails, the Creator of Linux Steps Aside | The New Yorker
▻https://www.newyorker.com/science/elements/after-years-of-abusive-e-mails-the-creator-of-linux-steps-aside
Valerie Aurora, a former Linux-kernel contributor, told me that a decade of working in the Linux community convinced her that she could not rise in its hierarchy as a woman. Aurora said that the concept of Torvalds and other powerful tech figures being “equal-opportunity assholes” was false and sexist:
Vu l’exemple opposé donné sur Python, ça donne envie de se mettre à ce langage en tant que femme.
Linus #Torvalds explique que
– le manque de #diversité parmi les développeurs open source n’est pas un problème parce que les gens sont « différents »
– que l’#open_source c’est pas une religion
– que de demander aux gens d’être respectueux c’est de l’idéologie américaine

Linus Torvalds on Oracle-Google dispute
Swapnil: What is your opinion about the whole Oracle Google court battle over Android?
Linus: I don’t really know all that much about that and that is another example of lawsuits not being all that great. It seems to be completely bogus and it is kind of embarrassing. One of the defenses that Google was using was the posting by Jonathan Schwartz’s blog entry saying that he was so happy that Google is using their technology and then the fact that company, after being sold a few years later, turns around and sues Google for using their technology — that kind of tells you that "OK, there is something wrong going on”.
I don’t actually know the details. I mean Java I really don’t care about. What a horrible language. What a horrible VM. So, I am like whatever, you are barking about all this crap, go away. I don’t care.
La #vidéo francisée des 20 ans du #noyau #Linux - Framablog

Le noyau Linux a #20 #ans. C’était en effet le 25 août 1991 que #Linus #Torvalds (qui fait justement l’objet de la librologie de la semaine) a en effet posté son célèbre message.
Pour l’occasion la Linux #Foundation nous a proposé un petit clip anniversaire.
Bordel ! Si c’est bien toi le grand type que j’ai connu au lycée !!!! désolé le commentaire n’a rien à voir avec l’article même si j’en ai parlé avec un collègue il y a quelques jours
faudrait se recontacter si t’as Fb ce serait sympa...
Artois Noeux Les mines seconde 4 littéraire 4 mecs pour une tripotée de nanas :) le café du centre le baby foot .....
Alors qu’est ce que tu deviens ??? Moi j’ai stoppé mes études à la licence (en histoire de l’art...) et comme j’avais du mal à trouver du boulot avec ce diplôme j’ai réussi à me faire embaucher à la Poste, maintenant je bosse à Calais...
