The Implications Of Software Commodity?

comforteagle writes "David Stutz has written elegant piece over at OSDir.com titled 'Some Implications of Software Commoditization'. It explores the concept of commodification in a historical context while also seeking to discover lessons that might be applied to contemporary open source business efforts. David gets extra points in my books for including sugar, Shakespeare, open source, MP3s, and the British Empire in one article."

    Young nigger there ain't no reason to feel straight
    I said young nigger pick yourself off your woman mate!
    I said young nigger 'cause you're fag bait
    There's no need to be unhappy

    Young nigger there's a place you can go
    I said young nigger when you want some felatio!
    You can stay there and I'm sure you will find
    A big black cock to aggressively grind

    It's fun to stay at the G.N.A.A.

    You can do whatever you want to his prick!

    Young nigger, are you listening to me
    I said, young nigger, what do you want to be
    I said, young nigger, you can be a true nigger fag
    And then find a gay nigger to shag!

    No nigger does it all by himself
    I said, young nigger, put your cock on the shelf
    And just go there, to the G.N.A.A.
    I'm sure they can help you today!

    Young nigger, I was once in your shoes
    I said, I was down and out with a cock bruise
    I felt no nigger cared if my dick would ooze
    A ton of cum all over his fuse!

    That's when a nigger came up to me
    And said young nigger take a walk up the street
    There's a place called the G.N.A.A.
    They can help you become gay!

    This GNAA (GAY NIGGER ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA) post has been brought to you by A Spineless Liberal Commie, a true nigger fag.

    For your viewing pleasure (and to defeat the lameness filter), we bring you part of Socrates' Apology: How you have felt, O men of Athens, at hearing the speeches of my accusers, I cannot tell; but I know that their persuasive words almost made me forget who I was - such was the effect of them; and yet they have hardly spoken a word of truth. But many as their falsehoods were, there was one of them which quite amazed me; - I mean when they told you to be upon your guard, and not to let yourselves be deceived by the force of my eloquence. They ought to have been ashamed of saying this, because they were sure to be detected as soon as I opened my lips and displayed my deficiency; they certainly did appear to be most shameless in saying this, unless by the force of eloquence they mean the force of truth; for then I do indeed admit that I am eloquent. But in how different a way from theirs! Well, as I was saying, they have hardly uttered a word, or not more than a word, of truth; but you shall hear from me the whole truth: not, however, delivered after their manner, in a set oration duly ornamented with words and phrases. No indeed! but I shall use the words and arguments which occur to me at the moment; for I am certain that this is right, and that at my time of life I ought not to be appearing before you, O men of Athens, in the character of a juvenile orator - let no one expect this of me. And I must beg of you to grant me one favor, which is this - If you hear me using the same words in my defence which I have been in the habit of using, and which most o

    Moderators, we shouldn't mod something down just because it's critical. Even by academic standards, the article really is pretty pretentious, however much you agree or disagree with its argument. The author could have done a lot more with a lot less.
