Hurd development started early 1991 once the licensing issues with Mach were resolved - so I don't see where he got "years" from.

Nothing from MINIX was actually used in the kernel, Linux - I don't even think it even had an influence on its design - Linus happen to have used MINIX until he got sick of its design and decided to start writing his own OS, but only ever ended up writing the kernel.
>We haven't seen any major ME vulnerabilities
Aside from all the major ones intel has succeeded in covering up.
