When a patch has already gone through two people, at that point, I
can either look at the patch and say: no, all your work was wasted, and
micromanage at that level – and quite frankly I don't want to do that, and I
don't have the capacity to do that.
So most of the time, when it comes to
the major subsystem maintainers, I trust them because I've been working with
them for 5, 10, 15 years, so I don't even look at the code. They tell me these
are the changes and they give me a very high-level overview. Depending on the
person, it might be five lines of text saying this is roughly what has changed,
and then they give me a diffstat, which just says 15 lines have changed in that
file, and 25 lines have changed in that file and diffstat might be a few hundred
lines because there's a few hundred files that have changed. But I don't even
see the code itself, I just say: OK, the changes happen in these files, and by
the way, I trust you to change those files, so that's fine. And then I just say:
I'll take it.

I would love to see Google buy T-Mobile. I hope they are
seriously thinking about who's going to control the pipes. Soon this will be a
serious problem.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Shin Jong-kyun, Samsung’s head of mobile and IT, told Yonhap News
that the company has no intention to negotiate with Apple to reach a settlement
like HTC did recently.
“It may be true that HTC may have agreed to pay 300
billion won (US$276 million) to Apple, but we don’t intend to (negotiate) at
all,” Shin told reporters, according to the publication.

Got the urge to read every UberSoft strip, from start to finish. My wife and
kids think I've gone nuts, because I can't stop laughing like a maniac.
