People are always telling me all I ever do is take, take, take. I never give back to the community. Ya well, I don't have time for that sort of stuff. Sure, I have talents and programming abilities that could be put to good use in the open source community, but I'm busy "gettin' mine." A man's gotta eat. Haven't you ever noticed that those guys don't get paid? They do make a pretty mean operating system though (It's got a penguin for a mascot and everything). As far as I can tell these open source guys live off the warm fuzzies they get from making high quality software products freely available to the masses. Here's where I contribute. It is a proven fact that everyday my usage of open source software feeds a programmer suffering from warm fuzzy starvation.* That's right, I'm a philanthropist.
*This is neither proven nor a fact.
