Unless I've misunderstood their policy, they also forbid individuals using Class 1 certificates commercially. For example, if you run a blog with "Support my blog! Buy my T-shirt swag from swag-selling-site.com[link]!" then

Yes; but if they want to release the BSD kernel as a whole under the FreeBSD license, then they already cannot incorporate code that has any other license whatsoever. For example, they wouldn't accept my patch under the hypothetical l

I don't see "thin" in that description. (One can't infer it; "healthy ⇒ thin" is false. Do you have inside information on this study?)

It's possible to do similar things without setuid/root, by modifying the absolute paths in the binaries and config files. To modify binaries, http://nixos.org/patchelf.html . I'm not aware of an automated t

That licensing (GPLv2 & commercial) is pretty permissive. It's open-source. They didn't even pick the AGPL, so you probably don't even have to share your source code if you're feeling selfish and running your /

If you're arrested or indicted, these make it clear: it's better not to have talked to the police. But I'm still looking for analysis of how talking to the police affects the chance that they won't arrest you at all. If

Once I made a Ruby program noticably slow by using "array += items" instead of "array.push *items" in a loop, making it O(n^2) instead of O(n). Once we noted that doubling the input size quadrupled the runtime, I found the bug. (I was a Ru
