I didn't say a quote cannot be deceptive. I don't see this one as even remotely deceptive, though. If you know who Linus is, you know he owns the Linux kernel. A quote about him not reading code would therefore be taken to refer to the kernel code. In that context, the quote is accurate. Linus by his own admission is not reading the kernel code any more.
Not really... Not from what I already perceived it.
> I don't see him suggesting anything
Um, I am not suggesting that he is?
What are you trying to get at here? Do you think I am lying when I say I felt deceived? I don't doubt you when you say you didn't feel deceived.. both are legitimate experiences.
> Not really... Not from what I already perceived it.
What did/do you perceive his role to be? He manages and he doesn't read code, exactly what the headline says.
> Um, I am not suggesting that he is?
Then I have no idea what you mean when you said "or that he was suggesting something somewhat outlandish".
> What are you trying to get at here? Do you think I am lying when I say I felt deceived? I don't doubt you when you say you didn't feel deceived.. both are legitimate experiences.
I'm just trying to understand what you felt deceived about. If you felt deceived, then you felt deceived, and I'm not disputing that. I just don't understand why you felt deceived.
