if your program is infected with it, then it is impossible to free it of it without rewriting it from scratch stallman? more like chairman hitler-mao

#include gpl.c start: for I = 1 to 50 print.l "this program is free" next end;

you know why that won't compile?

yeah it's why numpy uses FFTPACK instead of fftw3 (see my graphs thread for the same information)

so is proprietary software like if you use proprietary code then you have to pay royalties and people who make derivatives of ur code have to as well

yeah but the gpl costs no dollars as such so it fools you

the gpl v3 is not very good almost every single person who writes a single line of code in any language owes quite a bit to gpl v2

never use the gpl use either the bsd or mit licence. whichever one of those it is that makes stallman the angriest

GPL as trialware enforcement http://libre.adacore.com/comparisonchart/ I don't quite get how they managed to do this. The really dickish thing is that it's not just the compiler that they release under two different licences, it's the runtime as well. (Apparently the GCC version has a runtime linked exception but idk how legit that is, it seems like adacore would have to have all the rights to release the non GPL version anyway).

jony ive aces posted:so is proprietary software At least with propriety stuff you normally can pay someone to do so, GPL makes it really hard
