If your boss says “write me code that doesn’t have a GPL license because I want to license this to other customers in a non-GPL way” you cannot use, or have a machine use, GPL code. This isn’t about whether or not you’re allowed to use GPL

Yes. Building a tool that facilitates or even automatically copies code and then using it would absolutely open you to issues. I'm actually not sure what your thought process around why it wouldn't - if you're byte for byte

This isn't devs of course, this is just young people. The more you learn, the more you realize how little you know. That takes time. We call it wisdom. There are no wise young people - only wise beyond their years.

What's even more amazing is that the person in possession of it would have to identify themselves to bring an infringement claim... At which point they're open to theft charges. Bathing in kool aid indeed.

it's not really going to change the lifetime value of a customer, I bet, once they're onboarded. But it will absolutely lower conversion. People do month to month because they don't know if they'll find value in it, it&

The issue is that a 747 is too big to fly from, say, London to St Louis profitably. This is a single aisle, small aircraft. It is a big unlock for more point to point, small market to big market flights (and even small market to small mark

the EQS is like 2000lbs more than a Model 3 - you should compare its efficiency to a similarly sized Model S. Comparing the mileage of cars that are sized wildly different is kind've pointless.

If they refund the entirety of the second transaction, logic follows a third transaction of $9,975 would be correct if you actually wanted to buy $10k. I suspect that's not what's going to happen though. OP will get a refund of $

Depends on the technology and where that limit is. Increasing bandwidth to the cable head end or FTTN? Trivial. Replacing DOCSIS 2 equipment with 3.2 equipment? More expensive. Running actual FTTH? Hard, large upfront costs, but you have an
