I don't think that's convenient for him. Let's email him for his consent.

Sold. I will watch Skibidi Toilet and perhaps discuss the lore with my 6 year old nephew.

So, uh, how do you live in modern society?

Shameful is very much an understatement...

Looks like a footnote. I'm curious, where's this from?

But open-source doesn't always mean working for free, nor does it mean people do it for purely ethical (or socialist?) reason.

There are lots of reason why open-source is attractive after discounting ethics and money. I imagine being credited for being a major contributor to a popular open-source project would mean better job opportunity in the competitive tech job market. The gig doesn't directly offer you money, but it does gravitate the right company that has the money to fund your work they find very valuable. In a sense, this isn't that far from how capitalism work -- credits are due to the people who brings most value to the society, whether the source of the software are open to all or not.

This is of course a very superficial statement to make, but I remember Eric Raymond wrote about this in more a detailed (and more convincing!) manner in The Cathedral and the Bazaar.

To be fair, the more podcasts, the more competition in making podcasts more high quality, the more quality podcasts I can listen to, the more reason I have to do boring chores or exercises.

Yay to podcasts.

TIL. Damn.

Reminds me of the how early the covid policies were based on age-old misconceptions about aerosols.
