It seems that over on Shitter, a random VC/executive tech bro of the day is trying to redefine "Open Source" yet again. Three different people tried to make me care about this.
And while on a technical level the answer is super simple -- there is a commonly accepted set of easily applied tests the passing of which determines if it is, in fact, #opensource -- the only thing I did find myself actually caring about is that this kind of thing simply does not happen over here. And that's really nice
