Wait, why can't devs use GPL software at work? How is code compiled with GCC any different from code compiled with Clang, legally speaking?

  He obviously means software ( libraries, tools ) which become part of your product. Not tools to build your product ( compilers, bug trackers, operating systems and the like ).

    Oh, whoosh. Thanks, I'm not a professional programmer so I haven't had to think about things like that yet.

      No it was a good question! I did not make that at all clear, and the distinction is important.
