“All operating systems suck, but Linux just sucks less.” — Linus Torvalds

Linus Torvalds is a Finnish-American software engineer best known for initiating the development of the Linux kernel in 1991 while he was a student at the University of Helsinki. Torvalds' creation has since evolved into a global, open-source project that forms the basis for the Linux operating system, widely used in server, desktop, mobile devices, and embedded systems across the world. Beyond the Linux kernel, Torvalds also spearheaded the development of Git, a version control system essential for managing the source code of the Linux kernel and numerous other large-scale software development projects. His contributions to computing have been recognized with numerous awards, including the Millennium Technology Prize and the ACM Software System Award. Torvalds' work has had a profound impact on the software industry, promoting the open-source software movement and influencing the development of free software.
