Well I saw plenty of opinions of radical left wing people calling for pretty atrocious things against "CIS white males".

I don't believe violence should be justified, one way or another.

He made those remarks after he pretty much was forced to "professionalize" by The Foundation.

I do agree however that at no times should criticism of code or work become personal.

Linus' use of explicit language was exactly something that should be used as an example. He rarely attacked people, but instead attacked the actions that they did or ideas that they had.

First impressions matter mostly to those who are influenced by them. Many scams have been successful because of exactly that.

A stupid name might do well on search engines for example (as in, those names could be easily searched)

Furthermore I don't really consider the name to be stupid. I don't quite really know of many other ways of succinctly highlighting resilience as a property in a name.

What is the opposite of a guy, then?

They who place shallow attributes above merit, deserve neither.

I find it strange too, especially since the first human trial happened on April 16th.

I've been tinkering on Linux as a hobby for about 2 years now and was made aware of strace a couple of months after starting to dig a bit deeper. You make me hopeful of my future employment.

Then again, you can't expect Signal's target users (normal tech un-savvy people) to have FDE. But that's not necessarily bad in my book. IIRC Signal's security model wasn't aiming for maximizing security but instead making mass-surveillance harder to execute while offering an acceptable UX.
