It's tough to see someone so obviously intelligent be touched mentally like that. I truly wonder what kind of person he was before his schizophrenic break. And it scares me too, because what is stopping those wires from crossing in MY brain someday?
It makes me want to fork his OS and clean up the references to religion, maybe add some driver support that he refuses to add so that it will actually boot on bare metal. But I'm nowhere near as talented a programmer as this man.
