Is this the open-source scam?

I think I've read every word he ever typed, often several times, and I run the "Clacks Overhead" chrome extension ... Yes, cost is important, but value is much, much more so - and developers forget that as well in favour of "New" or "Interesting". And the most valuable things a business needs to have, have no "cost": staff loyalty, customer loyalty, reputation. And are the easiest to throw away to save $5 on a $1000 unit.

Yep. It is a delicate balance that needs to be maintained. Sometimes you need to give the customer/client what they need, instead of what they say they want, but that gets pretty tricky too. I was never much in favor of "Maurice and his Amazing Rodents". Sam Vimes is the character I identify with the most. (Except I don't have a rich wife.) "Unseen Academicals" is one of my favorites as well. I also like Gaspode the wonder dog, the Witches, and, of course, Rincewind.

Sure, the hamburger is free, but if you want a patty, a bun, some cheese, maybe a leaf of wilted lettuce...
