> I think Linus should be more respectful of other people
You all need to grow thicker skin. If we're really engineers, we can't dance around criticism. Linus' comment was about the code; he never insulted the developer. If you attach your self worth to the code you write that's your problem.
What would you have him do? Sugarcoat it? "Uh actually sweetie please rework this function it's not quite there".
It's a PR; honest, unbiased feedback on the code (and optionally how to improve it) is the only thing that matters. If the code is garbage then the reviewer needs to say so.
