Yes, but there is a long history of thinking about the various definitions for "free". This alone warrants the discussion. Surely they see what you mean, but it does sound like you both default to different definitions of the word. I agree with you, but I maintain that you are being much to certain about the naivety of the objection.
Because we're on HN:
There's 'free' as in beer ...
And there's 'free' as in 'freedom'.
- nautilius 5y agoAll that is true, but burrows conveniently switches back and forth between definitions just to keep a 'controversy' alive. Hence bad faith. [edit] Also, I cannot really see how anyone, not even burrows, would confuse 'free' treatment with 'free as in speech'.
