Blah Tumble Woof Woof is a tumblelog.

The point of releasing code is to let people use it. Most people want to use it commercially, because that’s how the world works. Your code isn’t so special and wonderful that it couldn’t have been written by someone else. So, using the GPL is enforcing assholery on everyone because you think that someday, some other asshole might not make their code available in a time of dire social need. That’s crazy. It’s dealing on pure idealism and ignoring statistics and commercial reality.
