It matters hugely, a lot of the good FOSS is good because the people who wrote it were passionate about what they are doing. You cannot create this passion with money, which was one of the largest points the author is making.
- Kinrany 5y agoIs being averse to having good things a prerequisite to passion?
- tomxor 5y agoI did not say that, I only said it matters that you like doing the work. If anything, wanting good things and being dissatisfied with what you have is a pre-requisite to having the passion to creating something new. But none of what I am talking about are liquid, they are tangible - you can't have bad money, it's just money.
