because he is, actually, smart? I'm in totally different field, devops, don't laugh :), but I religiously follow their approaches to security and design in general.
Yes he is. I complimented on the code quality, and that doesn't come from itself.
But "being smart" does not require you to be arrogant and condescending. Theo is, and seems to need to say "I AM SMART" all the time. Like "Hey, I found this thing where the manpage says X but look the implementation is actually Y. POSIX says X, so probably Y is a bug". Answer: "I AM SMART. I will fix this". Ooooo-kay. I didn't say you weren't smart.
