Re: Doubt in USB Drivers
Little will remove you from the challenge if you ask questions in public. If this hasn't already happened... keep reading, take your time, and figure it out yourself! Good luck.

Re: Issues with Community
First of all, if you missed my email on this topic (sent a few weeks ago), please go read or reread it.[1] Things were relatively quiet on this front until this week. This is all my opinion (and I carry no clout here), but if you are frustrated or annoyed by Nick's emails, the best thing you can do for him and for this list is just to ignore them. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but I don't think anyone is ~obligated~ to review or respond to every patch, or think about every question raised -- and frankly, all this exasperation about Nick creates a lot more noise in my inbox than the questions and patches themselves. And as a newbie myself, I've actually learned a thing or two from it all. I commend those of you who have continued to respond patiently to Nick, as well as those who haven't banned him. I don't know that there is an ideal short-term solution here, but I do notice that his input has changed gradually over the past few months; I suspect that could continue. Perhaps continued repetition of the idea that he set aside patch submission as a goal and use bug reports as a way to explore and better understand the kernel.

Re: Help with btrfs project
Guys, stop it. Nick has told us he has Asperger syndrome; as such, he is not likely to understand facetious or flippant remarks for what they are. The time you've spent responding to Nick's emails would be much better used reading a little about autism spectrum disorders [1,2] and the kinds of difficulty and confusion they cause in more normal (neurotypical) contexts, for both AS people and the people they interact with. Otherwise, just move on. I am not a psychologist or an expert on autism spectrum disorders, but I know enough to recognize that his behavior on this and other lists is consistent with several aspects of those disorders. The sad thing is that he's getting treated as a malicious troll or a fool, when it's pretty clear (to me, anyway) that he's fascinated by the kernel and just trying to learn as well as he knows how. Without going into autism spectrum intricacies or speculating on Nick's particular traits, I'll note that Aspergers is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction and nonverbal communication (from Wikipedia) -- which we have seen repeatedly in Nick's frequently inappropriate and unresearched questions and misunderstanding/misuse of the good advice he has received. The resulting frustration is understandable. I acknowledge that the format of this and especially the working kernel lists is simply not equipped to handle Nick's sort of engagement. The best practice, if you're frustrated by Nick's emails, is probably to follow the protocol for feeding trolls -- ie, don't -- even though his motivations are different from what I'd consider a real troll's. You simply cannot expect him to respond (neuro)typically to your input. I don't intend to discuss this here anymore, but I really hope the above can provide a little context to help the community make more fruitful decisions in response to Nick's questions, or at least temper your frustrations.
