Linus Torvalds (Git was originally created by him) seems to be actively contributing in GitHub for the Linux kernel repository (also created by him): https://github.com/torvalds/linux Anyone has seen his position on this topic?


> Anyone has seen his position on this topic?

Well, he's not a fan of GitHub pull request as per the last decade.

Isn't the Github repo a mirror?


Yeah the commit messages suggest all the heavy-lifting was done on kernel.org's server. It's just matched his GH user to the email in the commit.


Fake news. That's just a mirror. The development happens over emails.

It would be easier to believe if F-Droid was also listed.


It's just added to IzzyOnDroid repo[0]. But that's not a real thing...

...which is work in progress[1]

Very nice! however the square representing the value of silver 43.9b, should be ~half 100b square. It looks more like a ~quarter.


Just great! I really hope it will happen.


Nice... but after the second home:

Yes it is!


Interesting, you get as "Did you mean..." the word with accent. I hope that translating from chinese you will not get this kind of tricks I don't want to walk 10km insted of 10 yards when looking for a hotel!


Well I think it is wrong, A mile is not a kilometer and a yard is not a meter. I think it is a mistake, one can talk about miles in spanish and kilometers in english.


Yes.

Why is that in reply to my own previous comment? I cannot see how this is "replying" (maybe you intended to post a regular comment).


Yes, sorry it was a regular comment (new in ycombinator). Thanks for it and Looking forward for your table :D.
