Comment on: Yet another FUCK RICHARD STALLMAN rant, because that communist hijacker still isn't getting as much hate as it deserves!

Are you against copyleft? If so, why? RMS foresaw that merely releasing software under a Free licence would be insufficient, as it would be "consumed" by proprietary projects, and the Free ecosystem he had in mind would not materialize.

His concerns were shown to be well founded. Look at what is happening with the "open core" abomination, the phenomenon where Free software projects, such as OSM (Open Street Map), have their work used by parasitical, proprietary software. Essentially, the Free software is left and then desirable features are added to the project as proprietary code.

Anyway, to have been involved in this issue for so long, you must once have been an ardent FSF enthusiast. I wonder what it was that turned you elsewhere?

Comment on: How difficult is it to create a search engine?

The code is Free. It is much better than other engines.

Comment on: Programmers are having a huge debate over whether they should be required to behave respectfully to each other

How about one of these rich Sheiks who buy clubs like Manchester City buys a football team and populates it half with quality players and the other half with 'oppressed' women, who are finally given the chance to fulfill their potential. You would need several changing rooms to accommodate everybody in the team.

Record all the excuses and complaints. It would be quite funny, especially when the top players some how manage to give the 'oppressed' players a chance for a goal.
