Prof_Eibe4 year old got her first linux kernel patch accepted
That is so wonderfully wholesome; I needed that today.
I wonder what editor she used. Hope it was vim!
if this 4 year old is better with emacs than i am i’m going to kill myself
Let’s just make room for the next generation
And you should not forget that Emacs is way harder when you are 4 because your hands are smaller!
For one second I thought this was, like, Euler’s second coming with a child just looking at code and being like:“Huh, so thats programming? Btw. you made an whoopsie there! frantically pointing”
somewhere there are such geniuses undiscovered because they were born in the wrong place and in an unfavorable configuration. that hurts us all more than we’ll ever know.

Please inform your niece that the patch has been applied and that the
lonely "s" need pine away no longer.
Thanks,

Otome-chanI saw the title and was about to start calling bullshit but then I actually read it and it's honestly the most adorable and wholesome thing. Her patch is greatly needed, and is critically important. I can't believe that such a major bug was missed by the dev team.
DannyMacMan this warms my heart ;‿;
So cute!
This feels like a “Little Bobby Tables” moment…
