Linux kernel hacker and maintainer etc.

I’m finally going through LKML and posting my horribly delayed pull request for v6.5. Considering Finnish yearly celebrations, such as Mid-Summer Eve, the timing was just super awful. #linux #kernel #lkml #pullrequest #pr #tpm #keyring #sgx #x86 #intel

@EntropySloth and also, if one reviews patches, the patches might come from quite variable palette of political systems. at that time, i only look at the code, i don't really care about politics as long as communication is aligned with the code of conduct.

this also applies to companies. when i was working at intel and reviewing kernel patches, i completely ignored the source of patches, and absolutely never favored intel in lkml.

i think my beliefs help with this type of thinking when you have your kernel maintainer hat on, but even if i had some other views, i'd stay strictly professional and ignored all that. it is all about contracts that you make and i like following those that i make.

@EntropySloth yeah no worries i understand :-) being neutral means also not attacking on people when they say their opinions, if they are polite when they state their opinion. that is what being inclusive means.

@EntropySloth they are also wealthies countries in the world, not too many people live in the streets, and people generally happy of their lives and well educated. it could be better of course but i guess balancing market economy depending on situation has been pretty well tested.

@EntropySloth you probably missed the socialism part, this is just the kind of society ive lived in for my whole life. no extremes. and it has been a good way to manage nordic countries for past 100 years so i dunno...

a #regular #person who goes to work, pays taxes, maybe has some outdoor activities such as picking some berries and mushrooms from the forest, and possibly plays in a band or performs electronic music, or perhaps does some sports, is really the new #radical I suppose.

In other words, that kind of person is #extreme #neutral.

in a functional #democracy you need both strong left-wing and right-wing, and each election is more like collective decision, which prepares a functioning mix of #capitalism and #socialism, which makes sense at the time.

this is the only #political #manifest that i support. it is super boring, but it actually works.

to add, i don't always follow this, sometimes your are just really stupid when you cannot control your nerves. taking your words back is a respectable property in a person IMHO. so lets not judge people for lets say a single misogynistic, racist or whatever comment. it is okay to denote from that but categorically labeling people for bad behavior is just driving people to the extremes. we are not robots after all...

these thoughts have been my mind only because of disregarding vocally in public against his one controversial figure in the finnish government. i think it was not attack to the right-wing side of the finnish politics. if anything, it was governing that side (i'm also pretty variable on which side i vote, i don't have a fixed positioning). there was provable evidence of strong involvement with extremist groups. so speaking out loud against that kind of thing is only political in the sense that you support a healthy democracy.

i hope both sides are healthy and strong, and the thing was more like fighting against terrorism, because domestic terrorism is also terrorism.

like last year when warren buffet downplayed #bitcoin and other #cryptocurrency, it is pretty hard to make any conclusions from that what he really thinks of cryptocurrencies. it was just a signal he wanted to give to the public.

when #investing, i do not understand people who follow any of the big names, or their advice. obviously the signal you want to give as such, is the one that plays for your own benefit, which does not equal anyone else's benefit, unless that is the best post possible #investment #strategy.

"Sillä kun viemäriputki halkeaa ja lokavesi tulvii kadulle, apuun eivät riennä hipsterit jopoillaan. Asfalttimurtuman reunalla eivät kilise nenärenkaat. Siellä eivät komeile rastapipot eivätkä pasteeraa muotibloggarit kuin korkeintaan ottamassa onnettomuusselfieitä."

unohdetaan politikointi, tämä on vaan niin hyvänmielen ja terapeuttinen teksti :-) https://www.ess.fi/paakirjoitus-mielipide/137325 #persvako #äijät

... ja eihän siitä raa-asta väkivallasta ja kuolemasta tarvitse luopua. sitä varten on holokansi. kyllä jossain pitää aina toteuttaa agressionsa.

yhteiskunta toimis varmaan paremmin, jos ihmiset tykkäisi enemmän star trekistä kuin star warsista. sen sijaan, että tapeltaisiin pilotit tai huput päässä, niin juteltaisiin mukavia neutraaleissa kokovartalotrikoopuvuissa, ja 3D-tulostettais sitä mitä nyt sattuis tarviimaan. #startrek #starwars #yhteiskunta #society
