Code being freely shareable and remixable is great. Selling that open source code for profit is not.

- WisNorCan 4y agoIs your take that Microsoft should offer this for free? Or if they are not willing to do it for free, Microsoft should cancel this service and we should wait for Apache or someone else to offer the service? Or something else ?
- gfrff 4y agoMicrosoft should make this service free for open source (not just thought leaders), and compensate people otherwise. I should have a 0.01% equity in Open AI if they're using my stuff like this. Or they should do opt in.
- throwaheyy 4y agoHalf serious/flippant, we need MS to create a cryptocurrency so that developers can be credited with micropayments each time their code gets “quoted” in the IDE. <ducks>
- earnesti 4y agoWhat is wrong with someone making a little dough. It is just numbers in database.
- jdbernard 4y agoYeah, but those numbers translate to food on the table for my kids, a roof over their heads, better education, etc. Come on, this is a tired response. Nothing is wrong with people making money. There is a lot wrong with people making money off of the hard work of others without any consideration or remuneration.
