Although I hate Siraj's content, this is exactly what most freelancers or coders in companies do, use proper licensed code & use that for commercial purposes which is absolutely fine.
- vageli 7y ago> Although I hate Siraj's content, this is exactly what most freelancers or coders in companies do, use proper licensed code & use that for commercial purposes which is absolutely fine. So, at the very least, this guy displayed the licenses of the ripped content as well? If not it's not proper use.
- htfu 7y agoSomeone on Reddit gave an example of him deleting the license off a file he'd taken (and repo README only saying that the project is "by him"). Seeing how the rest of the files in the repo did have the same license remaining it was probably just a mistake, but this whole thing just gives off a really fucked vibe. Adapting code, using code, taking code. Same same but very different.
- sireat 7y agoIndeed. I do not understand why Siraj felt the need to delete licenses. Surely his students did not expect him to generate all the material himself out of thin blue air. Even someone like Peter Norvig has a github full of other people's notebooks with proper licenses and attribution. There is nothing wrong with that.
