- isbvhodnvemrwvn 6y agoAre we? > I will still think odd that’s someone who is a professional hasn’t found one bug in an open source lib that is worth a PR or even an issue in a decade of work. It seems like the person is surprised how nobody has any contributions from just their professional work. Naturally unless I had no life outside of programming I would spend the vast majority of my time doing my 9-5 stuff.

This is because I work at a large consulting company that touches on any and all business fields. Free Github private repos has been a blessing for just storing modifications to existing projects.

I have no idea about enforcement, and most coworkers I've had have ignored those clauses.
