that even the thousands of developers who wrote most of that code don’t understand how their own code works anymore?

The bugs I have fixed that were written by that idiot "me from a few weeks/months/years ago"...

several times I have searched for a problem and found my own stackoverflow question with no replies.

The worst thing is when it happens in this way and you can't remember even though it was your own question https://xkcd.com/979/

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
