Why are we here? I think many people assume, wrongly, that a company exists solely to make money. Money is an important part of a company's existence, if the company is any good. But a result is not a cause. We have to go deeper and find the real reason for our being.

-

Free Software is a way that I can make the world a better place

-
- -
-

Free Software is a way to reconnect with our humanity in a sea of white privilege

Believe you can change the world
