coworker was at a research conference overseas and got some for me as a gift

full cookie dossier:

they are small, individually wrapped orange cookies in a metal tin. they are shaped like lions. texturally, they are somewhat reminscent of shortbread; a bit crumbly. I would say they are most comparable to chinese almond cookies, with a similar hint of almond flavor and a stronger mango flavor. There aren't any whole mango pieces involved.

estimated threat: negligible

It's so frustrating to see The Most Important Guy In Linux behave with the same degree of maturity I would expect from tilted teenage gamers.

Every month I see Linus Torvalds constantly shedding credibility for no reason whatsoever. Calling someone a "paid actor" is pretty demeriting, dude!

This whole brouhaha is pretty disappointing. If they want to conflate individuals with their government, then every american maintainer should be removed as well, since their tax dollars fund US imperialism. Linus should clarify what specific sanction/rule/whatever led to their removal, as the blog author correctly points out. Linus's obscurantism is just throwing fuel on the fire.
