I'm a supporter of Free (libre) Open Source Software but the reality is that there are disagreements on what these words mean as well as what is acceptable behavior. Honestly, I don't get emotional about it. After over 10 years in the Drupal opensource community I've heard these arguments over and over again.
This is my view point.
- Free (libre) means modifying and copying the code is allowed via the license.
- Open Source means the code is viewable and downloadable.
These topics have been talked to death in the FOSS world. I have no time for people that want to complain about people following the license of their software. That includes forks/copying whatever is allowed by the license. Drupal was forked a few years back. The license allows this. Many people were offended and angry. It is really dumb IMO to get angry about this. If you don't want a project to be copied/cloned/forked then change the license. Seems that is what happened here. I have no dog in this hunt. I like folks on both sides. Feels silly to me honestly. If I or my company write code we can do what ever we want with it. License it to be copied or not. If I license my code in a way that allows it to be copied I don't have the right to get all offended when someone does just that. You have to be ready for people to not give credit (though some licenses require this).
Read the license, no need to get all emotional about it. Now, the personal attacks/comments are another story and one I'm even less interested in discussing.
My two sats.
ᕦ(ò_óˇ)Day 8 of exercising everyday before the saloon opensWent for a 14km walk today again. I got up at 9AM but the train took a while so I was at the beginning of my walk at 11AM. The saloon opens at 12PM for me so seems like I am testing the boundaries of the streak definition: "exercising before the saloon opens".
I'll have to get up earlier. It's also getting quite late when I get back home. My original idea with the streak was to always be back when the saloon opens!
I mentioned here that I would try to find my way using the sun. That worked quite well! I only got slightly confused when I have seen a highway sign for my destination which pointed in the opposite direction. But I realized I am not a car and thus it's not meant for me.
No pictures today in the name of privacy - also there wasn't anything particular interesting except a bigger hill I thought about capturing for @DarthCoin because of his comment yesterday.
Tomorrow I'll go shooting at 10AM. Have to think if that counts as exercise. Maybe I'll just walk there, too. It's 6km and up a hill - actually, that's quite a big hill, so maybe it's actually not that flat around here? ;)
