Anyone involved in GNU Project?
I like that "Although most of the GNU Project's output is technical in nature, it was launched as a social, ethical, and political initiative."
My comment:
The above is really big and where STEM / Science, Tech, Engineering, Maths seems to do not-so-well is political intention and even seems to avoid thinking about how it can be used it for evil or re-packages... so the consideration of the "why?" overall etc and how to make sure of these things I think is a big oversight (like not giving a manual how to use something or why)....
So I was impressed **not only** by technical achievement of GNU Linux but the going towards: "social, ethical, and political initiative." which I think EVERYTHING can do.
And what doesn't do politics IS EVIL UNDERCOVER
muhahahaha.... I mean... it's deliberately 'non-political' STEM so the meta hierarchy / government can collect these tools and use it in more hidden ways or just for patenting in a money race, rat race, arms race or whatever just not giving away / solving humanity road map...
@freeschool The founder of the FSF is a gifted Mathematician. In Mathematics I can say that FLOSS was used for mostly everything.
Why some in the STEM Fields don't have the same values? They are likely bound by contracts and they don't own their work. Some are just greedy and seek wealth instead of being a pillar of light.
