if sandals && ponytail but NOT bad hygiene or lack of social skills and/or creepy then hire fi
I think the question really is; How many programmers have problems with bad hygiene or lack of social skills and/or creepy?
because: if programmers with bad hygiene or lack of social skills and/or creepy > microsoft programmers without bad hygiene or lack of social skills and/or creepy then linux has a problem. fi
This will also lead to stereotyping the linux programmers which doesn't have those problems.
is this what has heppened here, or are the problem with the suits "not understanding linux culture" or whatever suits better?
I personally is of the opinion that this problem is created by the OSS guys themselves.. but maybe that's my prejudice.
