- a96 7mo agoIt's not about likes, it's a flat out lie.
- necovek 7mo agoI can dislike word "bread" being used to represent edible produce made from (wheat) flour, yeast and water and insist that be called dough-nut (it looks just like a big nut made from dough), but I would be frequently misunderstood. This is why we standardize meaning of words, out them in a dictionary — so we can more effectively understand each other. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/open-source https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/open-source
