i wonder if he'll ever get any of his loot back

Kapow!

Try doing some "factual analysis" on GK-H's body of work and get back to us.
We're not interested in your emotional reaction to what he said at a talk,

it will have legs in its second life

i already have. if GK-H sucks as much as you imply, then his code would suck and so would Linux code in the systems he oversees.

Sounds like you're speaking to yourself.
GK-H has a considerable body of work.
Where's your "factual analysis" of his suckage compared to other professional C programmers or kernel devs?

That's applies to everyone, in every field.
GK-H has been deeply involved with Linux kernel development for TWENTY years.
If he sucks so much then so does Linux sucks and i would think you must scrupulously avoid using it in all circumstances.

if any of the other programming languages were good enough, the Law of Rustification would not exist.
that said, Zig apparently is showing great potential as a Rust alternative but still some way distant from a 1.0 release

While he's written a fair bit of code, he's mostly been a maintainer for a long time.
There are ~5000 Linux kernel devs representing over 300 corporations.
Do they all suck as much as GKH? Then why would anyone adopt Linux?
Hint: Linux world domination happened quite some time ago.

Anyone who's seen Zuck testify at Congress has seen Meta AI in action.
I'm quite impressed at how close to human it appeared

"All input is evil"
It was a slide he displayed around 27m 20s in his talk before the RustNL group

"what he is alleged to do"
WTF? that's like saying Linux is "alleged" to have been named after Linus Torvalds

" which involves turbulence"
you don't say

sounds like something on a sign held by a homeless person

"and security is a process meant to allow them to do that safely"
we've proven for decades that we're not very good at security
