He might be a fraud. Don’t know. It’s a good initiative anyway. I’ve been waiting for FOSS DIY cars to become popular for 15+ years. Don’t know why it never really takes off. Well, probably because of the big players lobbying/preventing, regulations and the lack of capital.
Hopefully that can change if supporters/contributors provide feedback.
Well, not made by. He’s a capitalist after all. 🙂
This is basically my experience of western millennial women from upper middle class. But they do it unconsciously.
They read all the feminist literature and talk about it a lot. But then they for sure expect you to pay for everything and handle all practical things… After all you earn more (because you’re older, work more and didn’t go for a useless art or HR degree). Also, you have to account for all bad things that happenes to other women in different places and time. Grrr…
They also feel very confused because of this big central hypocracy in their life. But whatever you do, don’t mention it or question their self-image. That will just cause more work and expenses.
I’m a copyleft fan in theory, but…
In practice my experience is that anything GPL actually doesn’t benefit the fellow worker/programmer as much. Since the worker probably works for an evil soulless company, he would have to use a different permissive software or buy something proprietary. I.e. if you choose copyleft you provide to a commons that is only accessible to a minority of workers. I also believe that most companies (even big tech) will try to contribute important or significant changes to permissive upstream projects instead of running their own private forks (the latter is much more annoying and expensive).
