And yet... open source software continues to slowly eat the world.
- bugfix-66 4y agoWith open source software you receive something very valuable: social capital, credit, respect. Communism is where you do the work (or don't) and everybody is rewarded equally. That's the Copilot model: you work hard to write the code, and receive nothing in return, because now everyone and their 10-year old brother can write it simply by asking for it... and your name never appears. You were robbed.
- marssaxman 4y agoI wasn't robbed; I gave it away on purpose. I don't care if my name appears; credit was never the point. Sharing back to the community which has shared so much with me is enough.
- bugfix-66 4y agoPeople like you can EXPLICITLY OPT IN to being used by Copilot or Dall-E. The rest of us aren't so selfless.
