In his article about not stealing ideas, Grega Stritar mentions karma and being a good person by not stealing. Yet for some reason, he also chose to use an unlicensed watermarked image from iStockphoto at the head of his article.
Perhaps I am reading to much into it, but it really seems to undermine his credibility and trustworthiness in this regards. He claims he is not willing to steal ideas, but he is willing (apparently) to steal images?
Where is the line actually at?
- stritar 14y agoActually, stealing the photo was intended as a joke... Do you think that if would steal a photo, I would leave a watermark on it? :)
- exodust 14y agoLOL, is it from here: http://nicholasnoel.me/tag/hacker/ http://nicholasnoel.me/tag/hacker/ Good article anyway! I think it's mostly fair. Although when people a secretive of their ideas, it's also that they don't want their incomplete or incubating idea out there amongst colleagues and friends. Inevitably someone asks, (and it might be your mum who asks) "so how's the internet-enabled frypan idea going?", and then you have to talk about it as if it's real to someone who probably can't help you with it anyway.
- thoughtcriminal 14y agoI was just going to comment on that photo. Clever and meta. It reminds me of the homies that show the price tag on their apparel.
- jonathanjaeger 14y agoIs it stealing if you have the watermark? Just curious what their terms are.
