Wtf is that naming convention

Works at Google, but looking for a job, why?

It says he's not looking for a job though

>toxic linus back
Hello saar. First of all "toxic" linus was never gone. Just because he let Rust into the kernel doesn't mean he stopped being "toxic". He routinely told both rust and non-rust devs off when needed. This is yet another garbage thread on /g/.

That's a beautiful rant. That's the art of a real programmer.

He's right you know.

Wonder who will inherit Linux.... Wonder if they will be Finnish too? Pondering the mysteries.

That's AI slop

>>106227142 (OP)
He's a highly functioning autist. There's no cure for this, really. I think his problem is the fact that there's too many people and too many unknown factors working on this project.
He should make his own private Linux kernel and only hire couple of people he personally knows to work on that.

>>106227142 (OP)
Linus is full of hate, thats why i dont use linux

>>106227142 (OP)
He was always a retard, I can't wait for him to die.

>>106233081
seriously, what the fuck was the usecase for that function?

>>106233535
When he dies Microsoft seizes full control of the kernel.

...
Why would you name your two 16 int bits a and b when the purpose of them is to combine them for a 32 bit int? I dun geddit.
I kinda want to see the rest of the code now, the "helper" function already has me scratching my head.

Did someone unironically try to add this to a Linux header file?

Yes, mind you someone who works at Google. It shows you the quality of programmers working at the biggest companies.

>>106232839
that's a white guy

Fuck this guy. He's not even a good programmer.

>>106227142 (OP)
What's wrong with just:
>rejected, don't pollute public namespaces with private helper functions
And possibly, if you really feel like writing more:
>also, a side note: make_u32_from_two_u16 - despite its verbose name it's not really clearer or easier to understand its intent than from the implementation itself- try a better name, or just use the inlined implementation itself
Linus sounds like an asshole for the sake of being an asshole - so he's just an asshole.

>>106236291
>Linus sounds like an asshole for the sake of being an asshole - so he's just an asshole.
Always been. That's why he's great.

>>106236291
The name is clear though but it should be a macro. There's nothing wrong with helper macros for this (or guaranteed inlined functions)

>>106227414
>>106235380

he's not at Google, but used to be. just checked

>>106236312
No, it's not.
I honestly don't understand what is "make_u32_from_two_u16" supposed to mean exactly.
It's literally easier to understand the intent from "(a << 16) + b" just like Linus said than from that shitty name.

>>106236291
>Linus sounds like an asshole for the sake of being an asshole - so he's just an asshole.
You're an asshat for not thinking things through, you lazy ass, and then offloading that work onto Linus, so, yes, he has a "right" to be as ass to you.

The submitted code/function's name is ambiguously interpretable, you have no intrinsic clue as to the byte-order, you need to check the function itself, first.
Second, that should be a macro, if it should even exist at all.
I'm sorry, hello? Bitwise manipulation of data is more basic and natural to the computer than arithmetic, and you should definitely realize that as a systems or kernel programmer.

It might be acceptable to make that mistake if such things are not clearly communicated before, and then a 'dressing down' might not be appropriate, but I highly doubt that would be the case.

If anything, this is evidence of the sloppiness of Google code.

>>106236418
>I honestly don't understand what is "make_u32_from_two_u16" supposed to mean exactly.
You have nobody bur your mother to blame for your being mentally challenged.

>>106236540
>no intrinsic clue as to the byte-order, you need to check the function itself, first
You could name the arguments properly. Problem solved. There's nothing intrinsic about your usual C function's argument order that requires 10 arguments in whatever fucking order someone came up with 30 years ago.
It's normal to abstract operations you use often.

>>106236540
>If anything, this is evidence of the sloppiness of Google code.
Okay, there is one exception:
You use that helper function (that probably should still be a macro, unless you need) to dynamically change the byte-order either while compiling or during run-time.

I mean, in a multi-arch header, that could be a legitimate macro, because byte-orders are different accross hardware.

I'd have to know the context, without which I don't think I can quite judge Linus's reaction.

>>106227142 (OP)
Microsoft can't hide their obssesion with jeets anymore.

>>106236600
>>106236600
>It's normal to abstract operations you use often.
That should be macro.
Anyone using a full-blown function without having to change byte-order during run-time for that instead of a macro, has no idea what they or the code is (actually) doing.

It's like the noob trying to hide the fact he's a noob in counter-strike, it might not make sense to you, but you light up like a christmas tree on radar.

>>106236679
>inb4 it's optimized away
SLOPPY. CODE.

>>106236291
This - Linus' attitude is tiresome at this point. He's literally just some bitchy gen xer that other faggot gen Xers thought was epic.

>>106236291
Idk it sounds more personal so it drives the point further, also maybe don't try to push (bad)code outside of the standard window? Cherish the learning opportunity

Based Linus
Zoomers should get discriminated even more until they commit suicide

>4chan will believe anything that's in a screenshot

>>106236291
You're correct. People suck off Linus too much.

>>106227142 (OP)
>toxic linus
being correct and straightforward is not the same as someone being toxic. he is not even doing any ad hominem. but I am now: If you feel like this is toxic, then perhaps that's because you feel like you have been the target of such toxic behaviour. but in reality, you are not the target, you are the cause. so fix your shit.

Pretty much this.
I think he is aware the moment he resigns, trannies will shit up Linux so hard it will be a disaster for humanity.

>trannies
Boy, were some of them obnoxious!
But let's bury our axes, they got used by Big Tech as well.

'Shemales' were less hated, we can go back to something like that.

Face it, you got used, they never cared for you, you were just a vehicle to make normies think Big Tech cares more about anything than just profit margins and stock prices.
You sick fucks.
I usually get along with everybody.
And speaking as a person from the "I don't give a fuck, leave me alone"-faction:
I still don't give a fuck that you're tranny, neither in a positive nor negative sense.

Also, all you faggots go watch Con Air, by /g/od, that is one of the most bestest, actionest movies of all fucking time, even fucking O'Brien is in it as well, /g/et. the. fuck. outta here. And Chris Rock. Steve Buscemi. The tech guy from Mission Impossible. And a 90's soft country ballad song as the leading track, to top it all off.
What an era.
