I have no idea how you could work a patreon while you're doing other poo poo, especially when it's tax time I wouldn't mind a patreon so I could have some money for beer, but it'd be a nightmare with tax and disability SmokaDustbowl fucked around with this message at 08:53 on Feb 11, 2017 |

esr posted:I expect most other hackers confronted with sudden wealth will make similar choices. Reporters often ask me these days if I think the open-source community will be corrupted by the influx of big money. I tell them what I believe, which is this: commercial demand for programmers has been so intense for so long that anyone who can be seriously distracted by money is already gone. Our community has been self-selected for caring about other things -- accomplishment, pride, artistic passion, and each other.

i'm kinda curious how he thinks the aca wrecked his wife's legal career my first guess: she didn't want to tell him the real reason she got fired and knew if she blamed it on obama he'd believe it without reservation
