Hi,

in the Ruhr area, for example, ordinary workers who worked on blast
furnaces were well paid if they had ideas that went far beyond the
comprehension of well-trained engineers. These engineers had fairly good
knowledge but no practical experience but were willing to learn from the
uneducated but experienced workers. In the Linux universe there are
developers who only develop their software but do not use it
professionally. They defend their unworldly ideas with unfounded
arguments and unworldly statistics. Do you think that Oliver has a lot
to do with turbines for nuclear power plants? This is easily
recognizable nonsense ramblings. Feedback from users is dragged into the
dirt, look what I wrote and how misleadingly selected he answered.

Regards,
Ralf
