Nice article @davidebellone

Thanks for sharing

I wonder about OSS. Originally it was designed to solve problems that were either too expensive to use or didn't exist. It was hailed as the way to unshackle your project from the exclusivity of corporate contracts, but I fear it has gone down the path of 'problems looking for solutions.

We as developers look to reinvent the wheel any chance we get as a way to prove our worth, sort of like a rite of passage. This comes at an immense cost. We no longer solve business problems in an efficient manner, we solve them haphazardly with various bits and bobbles.

I think OSS has seat at the table, but maybe not the table it currently takes residence at.
