But who would host the workshops for her? Who would pay her to write more? She was rejected multiple times from multiple publishers.

- WalterBright 7y agoI write and give away free software. People have paid to come to my workshops. They've paid me to write more. It's sort of like why would anyone pay to attend MIT, when you can watch videos of the lectures for free on youtube? Oddly enough, MIT is doing better than ever.
- icebraining 7y agoMIT has an IP-equivalent in the form of the exclusive right to tell people you graduated there. Plus a regular property right in who frequents the campus, and it's known that much of the value comes from the network one forms there.
- WalterBright 7y agoExactly my point. The value isn't in the video of the lectures.
