FWIW, Luke was clearly trying to prod Linus into acknowledging the problem of the "trust me, bro" warranty on the WAN show instead of treating it like a joke. I think he was also making some expressions of dissatisfaction about how that cooler block review was handled, which is a major part of this.
Obviously, there's only so far he can push things on his employer's platform. Plus, the two of them have been friends for a long time. But I do wonder if he's going to break in the not so distant future.
Without Luke on the wan show Linus would be useless. It would be one guy saying whatever comes off the top of his head ranting uncontrollably about everything.
He knows when he goes off on a subject and Luke is there that Luke is going to challenge him if he's being an ass, so you get a better quality of content from Linus than he would produce on his own.
Linus isn't going to watch his mouth, that's honestly his shtick.
If you can stop your friend/boss saying something stupid (which they may regret saying later if they change their mind) then how does responsiblity make that not worthwhile?
