Another classic case of "if everyone does something differently than you do, it might be worth investigating why". The hubris to think that basic C time functions have been "broken" all this time, and that nobody noticed or cared. What a joke.
Doesn't he work for Microsoft?

My bad, that's Raymond Chen.
Basically he's best known for:
* Jargon file
* Parading himself around as "Mr open source" in the late 90s
