I don’t want to sound condescending, but what do you think all this talk about Rust and AI tools is about?

Yeah I am aware. It’s very good that they’re looking at it and great that Linus is supportive and not a stuck-in-the-mud. Doesn’t invalidate my comment thought. He’s still saying security bugs are no worse than other bugs.

And if some feature turns out to be a gaping security hole you’ll quickly see it turn into a bug. That’s what the quote is about. Every security issue is a bug so it has to be handled like a bug and squashed.

I mean… I don’t think that’s what he’s saying. Nobody is saying not to fix security bugs…
