Did you thing it was still the 2000's or something?That you were still free to write code, put it out there and have people use it freely?A decade ago, I made a joke comment to a friend that you were soon going to need a carry permit to operate a compiler.Joke's not so funny in 2026.
So, the guy that HN loves to mock and poke fun at - Richard Stallman - was utterly correct after all.
Don’t forget “imitate”. HN comments are often indistinguishable from rms screeds, in sentiment, misogyny, and agenda, and political extremism.
rms isn't a misogynist. He is a political extremist though, for the political cause of free software.
