Whose the best programmer?

rms isn't a programmer

Why not?

this, the only programmer who does not write niggerlicious shit

They're just businessman, never wrote shit.

he doesn't write software

t. schizo degenerate faggots
also terry only run templeos on a fucking virtualbox on a fucking ubuntu
tell terry to kill himself and castrate your dicks

Torvalds probably. He's been writing low-level C code for some thirty years now

He used to.

$ man ls | col -b | grep -e 'Written by'
Written by Richard M. Stallman and David MacKenzie.

>low level
Yeah, I'm sure you could do better and make your own OS with as much popularity and stability as linux. Kill yourself.

This is the only acceptable answer. The smartest programmer that ever lived. Chosen by God

Jeff dean is also very smart. But he works for the botnet.

B-but look at all the (honorary) PhDs of Dr. Stallman (as he refers to himself)

Terry is at most an average programmer
This nigger doesn't know that terry has/had a separate desktop machine which ran Temple OS natively

Why is he in SD, why is terry dress like a homeless mam, why is the soy so close? Look and his fist of anger.

Wow what a fucking looser soyboy beta cuck

He consistently comes up with new techniques in graphics development and has been a programmer lead for a few tech demos disguised as games. Even if you're not into video games, he has come up with quite a lot of cool stuff.
Linus. RMS is more of an activist, PHP used to be shit before the community got together to finally fix it and Guido has too much of an ego to be a good programmer.

Terry looks straight out of a cyberpunk game

terry actually looks fucking good here

Psst, kid, wanna take down Microsoft?

Out of those, Linus.

RMS hasn't written anything in 30 years now, even if we limited all four to LISP, Linus would come out on top. If he'd kept programming, RMS would be the leader for sure.

he hasnt invented shit apart megatexture and his stencil trick

Torvalds > Stallman >>> Guido >>>>> Lergorff
I'd rate Torvalds and Stallman really close, but Torvalds is ahead because he's still active.

What has Stallman actually written?
Torvalds > Python guy > PHP guy > Stallman

No we go to Langley for the CIA niggers Terry.

Most of the GNU operating system.

>never wrote shit

Where is the proofs?

Dennis Richie

>What has Stallman actually written?
Educate yourself. RMS wrote the original GCC compiler from scratch. Also GDB and of course Emacs. He's a great coder.

KING BY DIVINE RIGHT.

emacs

agreed

>RMS is more of an activist
That's definitely what he does but it doesn't speak to his technical ability.

I'll admit, if you hadn't trolled with this, I would have.

A worthy inclusion.

Compiler hackers and kernel hackers are both kind of up there.

You forgot: "my feet hurt"

Terry is a monk

>Terry is at most an average programmer
Is this a new pasta

>torvalds: doesn't program anymore

>rossum: never programmed in his life

Theo of course. Look at the beauty called OpenBSD.

Richard Stallman > Linus Torvalds > Guido > Herfdurf

Anyone can make a language. Guido made a mediocre one and Herfdurf made a terrible one.

he was a programmer long time ago. emacs, gcc,...

this is where you got it wrong, he stole all software from people practicing this and even told them to their face that he gives a shit about their ideology

nice greentext vimtard.
lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2008-02/msg02140.html
stallman maintained emacs as long as he was able to do.
>>code some shit 20 years ago
he coded the best and most versatile editor, which is a superset of vim and every other shitty editor out there, for almost 25 years and stepped down because not only he was maintaining a huge project but also he had work to do as the founder of the FSF.

emacs has a bright future, due to having already a skillful team as a successor to stallman.
What does vim have? are the waganda niggers going to take over when moolenar craps out... or is moolenar's begging to keep him alive for ever going to keep him maintaining vim?

>being good at slowness contest
wow that takes some serious programming skills

emacs is trash.

/thread.
I can't stand why people keep forgetting this guy over a Jow Forums meme such as Stallman.

I won't take that answer without his iconic partner on the same line

Guido DiGiorno; he literally invented a snake, how is that not the coolest shit ever?

>Where is the proofs?
His credits hidden in BASIC.
No programmer is smart enough to run a company.
So if he states he ran the company while also programming some of the software, one of those must be false.

Emacs is a piece of shit. Stallman is a barely human shaped foot fungus

I hope you mean Thompson, not Kernighan.

why would anyone do that, ofc Thompson

still better than the others

That said, Rasmus is probably still better than you.

Read up on RMS at MIT. He is a legit genius. He wasted it all by becoming a crazy freetard activist. Blame autism.

I built a fast compiler on a stack machine too and I'm only a master's student. It's not difficult. Please admit to yourself that Terry is just a meme because of his views, not because his tiny compiler is interesting.

Don't forget he had a hand in most of the GNU version of various Unix tools, the GNU core libs, and the GNU core tools. That is a ton of stuff that is still used to this day. I mean hell just one of these alone is quite the accomplishment.

Torvald actively contributes to the development of the Linux kernel you fucking retard. Just take a look at the Linux kernel mailing list archives.

Attached: 1518386984683.jpg (780x658, 62K)

Richard Stallman wrote GCC which is what Linus Torvalds used to compile his kernel. He hasn't written much the last decade but there's no denying he's written a lot of software still used by a lot of people today and there's no doubt he's a skilled programmer. Linus Thorvalds is probably a better programmer today simply because he's had more practice and kept the skill alive by programming daily.

idiot

Probably Justin Timberlake or Stoya

>Linus
Kernel is barely readable
>Stallman
GPL in every file takes too much space, and RMS probably didn't programmed a line since starting GNU

>Kernel is barely readable

who actually give a flying fuck how readable something is if it works and it's efficient

This CIA nigger is good.

It is not efficient, even Linus agrees on it.
>Torvalds said he'd love for Linux to shrink in size "We've been bloating the kernel over the last 20 years, but hardware has grown faster".

sorry, i meant efficient compared to shit like windows

I had a teacher in college that looked exactly like Dennis Ritchie, and he was also super smart. I guess its the beard that does it.
