I meant freedom as in liberty, not free as in 'free beer.'
In other words -- if you are free to write code any which way, complexity will result. Or conversely, in order to keep code consistent, someone would need to enforce rules.
- api 5y agoI 100% agree, but the problem is that most people care a lot more about free as in free beer than free as in liberty. I have for quite some time seen the two as being at odds. Free as in free beer undermines free as in liberty by destroying the economic basis for anything other than surveillance or closed business models.
