What happened to Linus? He looks so old now...
He got old.
Not especially old, though; he looks like a 54yo dev. Reminds me of my uncles when they were 54yo devs.
As a 46 year old dev I'm starting to look that way too.
I guess having 3 kids will do that to you.
That, and developing software for 30+ years.
That and leading an open source project for 30 years.
THE open source project.
Whether you're leading a project or not, time will have pretty much the same impact. He's in his mid-50s, and he looks pretty good for that age.
I mean he's aging quite well given his position... Many people burn out way earlier.
I told him not to go to that beach.
[citation needed]^/s^
That's an excessive amount of aging is what folks are seeing. Not that he's just old.
He's lost a lot of weight in 4 years so that's probably exacerbating the wtf.
He's 54, I think he looks pretty average for that age. He looks like an old dad, because he is.
he aged
Source?
What happened to he is happening now to you.
If you find out what happened, let me know, because I think it's happening to me too.
People age. You don't look the same as in 2010 either, I know that without having any idea what you look like.
Oxidative stress is a bitch
He's 54 years old
Time
Wow, yeah that's a big difference from how I remember him
He has a real Michael McKean vibe
It's like he aged 10 years in the past 2 years... damn
