exactly, and, this actually matters, richard could program circles around your butthole all day long whilst you'd be none the wiser. You know it, you know it well. There is no chance in hell you'll an iota of what richard did. Consider that when you realize he ain't even trying to be a programmer.
I assumed he was still living off his MacArthur/Takeda grants and travelling the world sending emails. That's his ``work'' according to him.

No he doesn't, I just meant he did, while at MIT and sometime after that, my point was just that none of us will even qualify to MIT, let alone do anything that gets recognition by other professional programmers, say gcc. Mind you fricking compiler. This shit is way beyond any of us. He getting upset about stupid plebs is really nothing, he could throw a tantrum all day long on every occasion and that would just be our fault. Because, we're not as capable as that dude.

He's said that he doesn't do much personal programming or contributes code to any project these days. The reason being that his personal computing requirements are fulfilled and that he wants to dedicate his life to promoting free software as there are plenty of important non-free software that needs liberating.

Please understand, I don't mean to say that I think I am better than you, just that I find your behavior insufferable. Please keep such behavior contained within the collection of angst and idiocy that is /g/. Thank you!

too bad for you, homofag, im never leaving. ill even advertise this shit board to ppl on /g/. enjoy your buttfrustration, progfag, 4 ur days r numbered.
>>34
Again, I never asked for you to leave, just that you stop acting like a angsty idiot from /g/ while you are here. If you invite other angsty idiots from /g/ to this site, I will extend the same humble request to them as well.

If you are speaking in regards to >>27, that was more of a suggestion than a command. As in, if you go back to /g/, you will find yourself in a more compatible setting (among idiots similar to yourself). While I find you insufferable, the only thing that I want for my sake alone is for you to stop being insufferable while you have any sort of contact with myself. Note that due to the nature of this interface, I wouldn't be able to tell if you are here are not, just that there is a person who writes text that I find insufferable.

That's largely what has been happening. In fact, that was one of the primary aims of open source, to use rhetoric appealing to businesses instead of hackers (``You should open source your company's software and this is why...'').
