This is what I did at @BevryMe with @WriterJohnBuck for the Christchurch Manifesto, which is censored in my birth country:

OpenAI has potential to be a peaceful nuclear weapon: their magnitude on economic warfare can be equal! This is the pressing & significant concern to empire, more than copyright & ethical quandaries! Hence why their reasoning for secrecy is that of national interest & security. https://t.co/sNfunJg6Ty

What happens when your invention becomes part of the national interest. Openness becomes a threat to national security, a la Aaron Swartz. Its empire vs sovereignty. https://t.co/Sm77io4sC3

@timsoret @edsludden Regarding the humans vs ai debate, its akin to orators complaining about literacy. It can be a boon to spread the flame of the human spirit, or it can be feared for the material concerns of the status quo.

@timsoret @edsludden Such a conception also views any claims of human copyright as insulting, audacious, and anti-human. Akin to usury of the mind.

@timsoret @edsludden That all we can do is best receive the inspiration of the gods; and discover their works that flow through us. In fact, this is the origin of inspire. Spires are our antenna/portal/umbilical to the heavens. When we are inspired, the connection is tethered.

@timsoret @edsludden If one subscribes the aether conception of divinity, then none of us invented anything, we were just conduits for the inspiration of the muses, the divine creative spirit that flows through an umbilical source to the universal aether of consciousness.

@aramaswamis With only one exception occurring since, where the hiring team promised BEIPA would be fine, however they never checked with their legal team; it was another contract that was generic, traditional, & overreaching; aka "standard & immutable".

@aramaswamis Since 2014, I either require BEIPA or California as the legislative state; worked well.

@aramaswamis Those interviews in 2014 would end with letter of offer meetings where I was told that I would either need to transfer ownership of my open-source work, or stop using it and blacklist/remove it at the company; as my contributions are widespread that is unachievable.

@aramaswamis USA is blessed by most companies using California as its legislative state, which is progressive for both employees and employers; see the legislative section in the BEIPA documentation. Australia has been a lot more traditional in its tech industry and protections.

@aramaswamis Once the 2013 sponsorship stopped, I was able to find a little consultancy, however the rent increased beyond those means. Looked for work, had many interviews to even letter of offers, however their contracts were impossible for me to sign. Ran out of time before funds ran out.

(3) as previously implied, the huge wage gap. If you've been doing it for 10+ years, you're looking at a 10x wage gap. This is completely glossed over and unspoken, for what seems is a representation issue.

(2) Many IP clauses in contracts imply transferring ownership of any consumed package the employee authored or even contributed too, something unachievable with prolific open-source devs; for me this caused temporary homelessness in 2014; BEIPA & California protect against this

(1) Employers have rarely considered self-employment work experience, they just look at it as a gap. So if you've been doing it for years, that's a big gap that you will loose against someone who doesn't have it.

- The more of a monopoly the company is, or has the potential to be, then the larger its pool of allies and the spread of its source collaboration, reimbursement, and protections.

My mistake is where all ideology falls short:
- There are plenty of companies that offer tremendous positive impact.
- A closed-source company is essentially an open-source enterprise, which just restricts source to pledged and reimbursed allies.

I also don't raise this in contempt of bitterness. I am proud of my accomplishments, I believe them to be some of the most important things I could have done. I just raise it to raise awareness as it is an experience foreign to the industry, that depends on such.

This isn't a me problem, this is the typical experience of the average full-time indie open-source developer, which is why open-source is predominantly an employee led enterprise, and increasingly so with each passing year.

Having been coding since 8 years old, and open-sourcing professionally since 15, and now 33. It has been an ascetic existence to support the open-source ideology. It has forgone healthcare, mortgage, home ownership, vehicle ownership, & most importantly, family support & creation

GitHub Sponsors offers $115/month, with a $1000-5000/year bonus from grant funds.
In 2013, I was sponsored at (from memory) $8k/month for 10 months.
So excluding consulting, I've earned about $100,000 for my 12+ years of open-source development.

For myself, a developer with 500 million monthly installs of my packages (that's 10x what react gets), here's my breakdown:
Tidelift Lifters: apparently $125/month however still awaiting first payment
StackAid, ThanksDev, Flattr, BAT combined, about $1.50/month

Hopefully one day services like these will have the average prolific indie open-source developer earn not just below the poverty line, not just above the poverty line, not just a living wage, not just a sustainable wage, but a competitive career salary with perks over decades.

Regarding careers, don't believe the marketing! Being an open-source developer instead of a closed-source developer was the biggest career mistake I made
Open-source matters to get your first high paying job, then after that, it is a curse that constricts your time & opportunity
