I don’t know if I agree, but we are very much in a world where that would make sense.

Why do drug companies deserve justice for developing and pushing heroin-analogues, but not tech companies?

And here we have it, the endgame of safety fascism. Do you have a loicense for that compiler?

[simonask]

Do you call building codes and bridge engineering standards "safety fascism" as well?

The stakes aren't any lower for us.

Me being allowed to publish hobby software is just as high stakes as a fscking bridge? Get a grip, man.

[simonask]

You’re moving the goal posts. You can build all the hobby bridges you want. It would be deeply irresponsible to ask the public to cross them, though.

I never mentioned building critical software like medical diagnosis software, software for industrial equipment, etc.

If I write a trash library for a random project and someone else starts using it to run their nuke plant, that isn’t my fault. Read the license. NO WARRANTY.
