Is it really "anger issues" writing an angry email on your computer?
Go back a few decades and when men got upset, they would beat someone physically.
Linus himself sees his own behavior as problematic and has put significant work toward changing it. Call it whatever you want, I guess, but just because it doesn't result in physical bruises doesn't mean it's not problematic.
Yep. But I think he is behaving pretty ok in every outburst. But anger issues, oh yes. But to me it's more like "I hope he's okay" rather than an unstable situation. He's working on it. And he's pretty serious it seems.
