It literally wasn't. He paid way more than what the stock was worth. (Hence why he desperately tried to get out of it, and why the board desperately tried to make sure he had to go through with it.)

I think he's just saying the headline is (potentially maliciously) ambiguous. I certainly assumed "told not to testify [or else]" when I read it.

There are some fantastic gems of videos that still get released, but they're really hard to find amongst the YouTube crap videos.

Linus LOVES corporate buzzwords. He certainly never fails to remind critics that he's just running a business.

He's said before that he hates it, but including one of those thumbnails boosts viewership by 30%. I certainly don't like it, but it would be really hard for me to resist that extra income too.

Not planning to tap into them or anything, but we just noticed while crawling around down there today.

I wonder if laziness is going to be what ultimately pushes mass adoption. Most people just don't want to deal with the maintenance associated with perfect lawns.

The board must be getting tired of this by now. He's showing that he doesn't know how to handle their user base.

It's even worse. Sometimes it's "oh, profits are only 120% of last year? SELL SELL SELL"

I've had RIF on the same part of my home screen for over a decade. That muscle memory will be very hard to break.
