totally. and if scraped, they must be able to provide the source. I don't care if it costs them money/compute time. They are allowed to grow with fake money after all

Any proof ?

I go regularly on Twitter/X, I still have to see suggested hate/nazi/whitethingy in my timeline. How people get exposed to this shit ?

Time to buy some shares, I guess.

When you think about it, we have so few "season" to experience in a human life, a max of farming knowledge must be shared and available to all.

OP never said he/she commits such code but wants to iterate, test, explore.

Of course, unused var should not be part of a commit.

and no royalties? $3000, would be few, even for only one professional writer.

tbh, cause my other comment in this thread were more windows-rant, I had one moment where I felt "alone" in enterprise (i was 23). It was in 2007, laptops in enterprise, at least in this insurance company was not common, and I was the only person with my glorious x60, at least within the openspace :). I was called in a meeting to help to display something, except that this is was my personal laptop, with hardware issue and gentooised, i don't remember exactly the issue but X was not willing to start at resume, even after reboot. I felt alone in front of the senior dev and manager guys :P Of course, it was the classical Murphy shit moment.

Note that this projector was usually connected to one of these HP pizzabox running wintel but it was not working. So I guess I shouldn't be totally ashamed at the end.

They had long longevity cause you didn't need a fucking client/gatekeeper (win only) to be allowed to use it, no DRM, was cross-platform from the beginning, was light, still light and the gameplay is simply awesome.

I could trade my WFH for a room with a view and a door. :) fuck openspace and flexdesks!

I remember my internship at google 10y ago, with all the free perks, service to make you forget about chores, the cool attitude, etc...
