PS: It's the height of boorish insensitivity that Logos has compared theft of a codebase to losing his own child to cancer. That is actually what made me want to stick my nose into this discussion to start with. Got news for ya, Logos. I've got a mom dying of cancer. If it'd cure her, I'd leave my car, my house, my codebase, my computer, you name it, open and unlocked -- and I'd advertise in the Sunday paper for thieves to come take whatever makes them happy. Nothing I own will make up for her death or comfort me when she is gone. A codebase is just a thing, when it comes down to it, and it's a shame you have such a lack of perspective and such misordered priorities that you'd compare theft of a thing to the death of a family member. Comparing it to theft of a car or of your wallet, sure. I can see that easily. But to the death of your own child? Gods forbid you ever actually have any and see just how wrong you are. Maybe you need to get out a bit more.
It's odd that those who are worst at analogies seem fondest of them.
