Bruh You Used MIT

Bruh You Used MIT
The MIT License is basically the "do whatever you want with my code, I don't care" of open source licenses. It's one of the most permissive licenses out there—you can copy, modify, distribute, sell, and even use it in proprietary software. The only requirement? Keep the copyright notice. So when a dev slaps an MIT license on their repo and then gets mad that someone "stole" their project... buddy, you literally gave everyone permission to do exactly that. That's like leaving your front door wide open with a sign saying "help yourself" and then calling the cops when someone takes your TV. The Persian cat's dramatic pose perfectly captures the absurdity of complaining about something you explicitly allowed. Should've gone with GPL if you wanted that copyleft protection, my friend.

The Double Standard Of AI Theft

The Double Standard Of AI Theft
The double standard in AI ethics is absolutely wild. Artists get the angry flower treatment when AI scrapes their artwork without permission, but suddenly everyone's a calm little daisy when GitHub Copilot yoinks thousands of lines of GPL-licensed code. The difference? Programmers aren't considered "real artists" despite crafting elegant algorithms that would make Picasso jealous. Next time someone says "it's just code," remind them their entire digital life runs on that "just code" someone wrote. The irony is we'll probably use AI to generate the angry tweets about AI stealing our code.

Read A License Agreement For The First Time And Was Shocked

Read A License Agreement For The First Time And Was Shocked
That moment when you actually read a license agreement and find the "may contain traces of nuts" disclaimer hidden in the GPL text. This is the software equivalent of finding a fly in your soup, except the fly is legally binding. Most developers just click "I accept" faster than they abandon side projects, but this brave soul actually scrolled past line 3. Truly revolutionary behavior.
