"you will need them again; maybe at another team, maybe at your next company or next job."
Why does the author highlight this?
So the motive for open sourcing is primarily to help yourself? The collaboration and chances to get better are more important IMHO.
- j_s 14y agoPerhaps the author has changed jobs enough times to have experienced this first-hand, or chose to emphasize a very practical/selfish motivation in order to appeal to those who would not otherwise even give open source a second thought.
- pnathan 14y agoUnfortunately, that logic will go over like a lead weight with companies that prize 7+ year terms and loyalty. "You might leave!? No! We're keeping it"
