      1/ My unpopular take: Free and Open Source Software culture often goes way past the point of absurdity in its idealism. It often winds up doing to software what file sharing did to music: It devalues the work and the creators behind it, and it breeds an entitlement culture.

      2/ It'd be one thing if we had basic income or lived in a Star Trek future. But what FOSS winds up being in the current climate is yet another way for the rich to get richer (free labor!) and a hindrance to making an honest living for creators.

      3/ I'm not saying it's all bad. It's really nice to have all this stuff for free. And to have transparency on certain key plumbing of the world's code. In the case of DeOldify, it's great free advertising and on the whole I've probably benefited way more than lost.

      4/ But the appetite for everything being free- including the labor- is weirdly unquestioned and ubiquitous. And I suspect (but can't prove) that that sort of culture drives inequality more than solves it.

      5/ It also drives evil business models. You've heard the saying- "If you're not paying for it, then you're the product." Facebook and Cambridge Analytica come to mind. I'm not the only one saying this of course. Jaron Lanier has been talking about this for years.

      This is a tricky subject. Being self taught in mostly everything I know in software, if it weren't FOSS I would have never been able to transition. But that might be an edge case. I'm kinda happy that Fb & Google are dev PyTorch & TF; but I think the pb is on smaller projects

      As I've been thinking more and more about this, I think a business model that might be interesting to try to keep both the openness and accessibility while making it viable might be to require licensing above a certain level? Number of people / commercial applications, any else?

      I think Unreal Engine perhaps is the best example of this? It seems like they're doing fine with it.

          I don't know enough about them to know But I have no idea how this could apply to libraries, like pandas or matplotlib They're used by millions, yet IFRC they're not doing so well. But it don't really see pip install telling you to out your PayPal credentials to do the install :/
