“With software there are only two possibilites: either the users control the programme or the programme controls the users. If the programme controls the users, and the developer controls the programme, then the programme is an instrument of unjust power.” ― Richard Stallman
Your comment reminded me of my early days working with Hp Business basic. We had a custom medical billing program which of course was interpreted code. The first time I found you could stop the program in it's tracks and modify the code and proceed was astounding to me and of course very empowering. Sadly that system had one huge drawback. If there was even the slightest drop in power while doing something like a backup to tape, an entire days work could be lost in an instant. Possible moral, " With loss of great power,comes great humility.😜
A false dichotomy, also known as a false binary or false dilemma, is an informal fallacy that presents a limited number of options as if they were the only options available. This fallacy involves misrepresenting an issue by offering only two options when, in reality, there are more possibilities. The goal of a false dichotomy is to force people to choose between two extremes, often with the intention of presenting a misleading or biased perspective.
@@DocBolle but we have an option that is much near to perfect thanks to Richard Stallman's philosophy and political movement... an ocean of free/open source software and tools in almost every area that we have today is all thanks to him and his followers i don't think any other options could be even near to this level of freedom and power given to all people on earth for free probably extreme isn't always a bad thing we should choose extreme if it is a good thing and we can more or less realize it of course there were and there are people who think that is not a good thing... specially those who make (or want to make) money from proprietary software, but i think that humanity in total benefit much more from free/open source software
Richard Stallman was meant to be speaking at my school next week, but it unfortunately got cancelled due to some controversial things he said in the past :/
@bitcoinmx Richard Stallman is famously a paedophile; and GNU is not the worlds first anything. Every organization that this pervert associates himself with ends up in failure, because of his filmed interview where he claimed "12 was old enough" and his complete and utter refusal to apologize for or take back what he said. There are actual free and open-source projects without ties to perverts; and there are other open-source licenses which are more free, open, and accessible. (MIT and BSD Licenses are examples) GNU has lost all credibility as a 'reputable' association by continuing to stay connected to Stallman.
@Bitcoin México 🇲🇽 Marvin Minsky was an AI pioneer who went to Epstein's island and may have had sex with a girl there. Stallman got cancelled for saying Minsky may have been unaware that the girl was a sex slave of Epstein and thus he may have thought she was having sex with him willingly

Great video! Something from a slightly different sphere in tech would be cool too. Like the making of C or of C++, I've tried learning a tiny bit about it but just learned how ubiquitous it is.

Good morning, everyone. I've always had trouble understanding the definitions of GNU and Linux. However, after watching this video I think I understood it. Please correct me if I'm wrong. In Richard Stallman's email (0:23) he states that, "GNU will be a kernel plus all the utilities needed to write and run C programs:..." however, what they created, until 1991 were programs, but no kernel. Then, when Linus Tovalds arrived on the scene with Linux, the GNU Project crew decided to use it as their kernel, giving rise to the GNU/Linux operating system. Is that it?🤔
Linus isn't bad he's just short sighted, he doesn't care about freedom that's never really been his thing, his relationship with software is purely mechanical, he just enjoys creating stuff and getting contributions back, that's all you get with Linus, he has no opinions on proprietary blobs, NSA malware, closed source software, data collection etc he just doesn't care, he's still an asset to the FOSS world but Stallman is a greater one.
you are confusing free software with open source. Richard Stallman clearly stated on multiple occasions that these are not same. Open Source was created to overshadow Free Software foundation and its effort.
No, The GNU project was not the first widely recognized open source software project, even "as we understand the term today". GNU itself arose from an earlier attempt at open source by Stallman, and the whole impetus for the Manifesto was the legal issues that arose from that attempt. And the practice of sharing and collaborating on software code predates GNU by nearly 3 decades; dating to the first shared language compilers. Do say otherwise is to rob the GNU project of its own motivation, and to ignore the fact that in the US 'copyleft' wouldn't have been possible before a change in copyright law in 1980.
Hi, the owner of this channel, please tell me how to build a gui program that locks an exe file with given password by user and when users wants to enter that exe app, a form should asks for a password to enter that exe app?

Doesn't freeBSD predate the GNU project? This is the world's second open-source operating system.
Free man free not Open Source... Shame on you 😊
so GNU and FSF exist because Stallman was frustrated with a printer.
And the death of hacker culture

And dont't forget Bitcoin, one of the biggest free and open-source project around today.
“OPEN-SOURCE”!
Are you sure it’s not FREE-SOFTWARE? 🤣🤣🤣
No, The GNU project was not the first widely recognized open source software project, even "as we understand the term today". GNU itself arose from an earlier attempt at open source by Stallman, and the whole impetus for the Manifesto was the legal issues that arose from that attempt. And the practice of sharing and collaborating on software code predates GNU by nearly 3 decades; dating to the first shared language compilers. Do say otherwise is to rob the GNU project of its own motivation, and to ignore the fact that in the US 'copyleft' wouldn't have been possible before a change in copyright law in 1980.
used sponsorblock, adblock, AND disliked this video LMAO!
No proper mentions of free software and distinctions of it vs open soros

Hi, the owner of this channel, please tell me how to build a gui program that locks an exe file with given password by user and when users wants to enter that exe app, a form should asks for a password to enter that exe app?
