It’s called intellectual progress, only by standing on the shoulders of giants can one stand taller, everything else in humanity operates in that mindset. Ad a developer you get paid to develop, not to hodl onto bits and bytes. <Insert link to diatribe from politically licensed software being kicked out of popular software libraries>

rotor posted:I'm not even saying don't give away the source to your worthless open source bullshit. I'm just saying retain control of it and don't give it to assholes, fascists and murderers. Probably because it turns the custodian into a fascist. Why the obsession with source code, the question equally applies to toilet paper or any material goods. The philosophical statement is probably along the lines of: who are you to paint everyone good or bad? Is a murder always evil? No, humanity is not that simple.
