As a PHP developer, why did no one tell me I am supposed to not give a fuck about FOSS??

I'm confused, and maybe naive. How are CSS/HTML and JS frameworks web stuff on the "Doesn't give a shit about open source" axis?

Was thinking the same about PHP :D Maybe because the license allows it to be used in proprietary software?

Yeah, those two squares tend to have a pretty smooth gradient between the two. People who are progressive FOSS enthusiasts tend to like some of the “more traditional” stuff in reality too.

It is not as good an IDE as PowerPoint imo, hard to be productive with the mere notepad. Not even mentionning the lack of comic sans ms /s

Now I have an existential crisis...

At work I develop for windows servers with vs code, which I also use at home on my Arch powered ThinkPad ...

WHAT AM I!?

Aren't a lot of open source libraries and languages initially open sourced from faang? I'm using Airflow at work, which is a descendant of something Facebook open sourced. Pretty sure all of them open sourced a bunch of of their data center designs too

Initially open-sourced? No.

FAANG jumped on the open source bandwagon once they realised they could not complete with the Linux dev ecosystem, and so hastily implemented drivers and other open source tech built on existing FOSS libraries and concepts.

They've contributed a lot, but they built upon existing frameworks pioneered by linux/FSF

Airflow actually started as internal project at Airbnb.

Ah woops, that's right, mixed that up. PyTorch is the one we use from Facebook.
