> I read this as a sad commentary on how the Open Source philosophy, that seems to be so drummed in to kids at University, leads them to think that the best course in life is to give away their best work for free.
Of course, this naturally contrasts with Fucked Company/TechCrunch's Deadpool, which is a sad commentary on the "turn a feature into a company"/startup philosophy, also drummed into kids at University, which leads them to think the best course in life is to give away their best years for free (a.k.a. worthless equity).
We can speculate about how things might have turned out, but we will never know. There are lot of dead open source projects that never amounted to anything. Life isn't in black and white
