Remember, you are "not allowed" to criticize Linus about how he uses LLMs on patches he himself doesn't understand in the Linux Kernel, despite screaming at others in doing the exact same thing (with him and Claude introduces a bug in the process).

This is especially with C code which has hundreds of foot-guns and you can just look at how Linus does not care about code quality in something as critical like an OS kernel and then carelessly introduces a race condition.

If that was anyone else and Linus caught it, they would be completely smoked by his wrath in the mailing list.
