Is Linux For Losers? - Forbes polemic article - divide for conquer
When you read this Forbes article : Is Linux For Losers? - Forbes.com
You can conclude that neither Linux (a bad operating system if you follow the article) nor BSD (a lawsuit over BSD scared away developers if you follow the article) are usable.
The journalist has found a guy named Simon Lok telling us a stupid reason to move from Linux to BSD: A comment in source code 'Does this belong here?'
Which is funny is the fact that this comment is in BSD kernel source code too : http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/arch/mac68k/mac68k/machdep.c?rev=1.116&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup
For non programmers , comments in source code are just comments.
They can be useful for yourself, ununderstandable to anybody else or useful for developers only or...or finally even useful to a world audience like this one "Does this belong here? " pushed in front by Forbes.
This last comment shows you that this Forbes jounalist aggregate interviews of two guys to produce the idea that you shouldn't use Linux nor BSD.
Divide for conquer.
