Still asking myself what that four year old girl who contributed to the kernel is doing today. Hopefully she goes into IT somewhere, she’d have a killer résumé.
Sauce?
OMG, I’m gonna google her!
s( s) -
14 year old with 10yoe of contributing to the Linux kernel is exactly the current IT market is looking for
1 line of code?
Amateur, I changed 1 byte of code in the Linux kernel!
It was random driver with something along the lines of “if (hardware_version > 3) fail()”.
One day we got a new shipment of hardware that wasn’t working for some reason until I upped that 3 to a 4.
That’s 3 bits, from 00110011 to 00110100. Can anyone top that?
I’ve changed 0 bits of the kernel
Someone needs to hit us with “I convinced someone to not contribute to the kernel”
I was thinking about trying to contribute, but the code I was fixing is filled with so many workarounds that I’m terrified of breaking one.
“What if I just change this a bit…”
segmentation fault
“Nope, nope, let’s put that mystery code back…”
