“Jeff Dean once shifted a bit so hard it ended up on another computer.”

“Chuck Norris can kill you. Jeff Dean can kill -9 you.“

Did not understand. Please explain.

kill -9 sends SIGKILL to a process, which cannot be caught and results in the immediate termination of the program (except in a couple very specific cases).

Thanks :)
