  • Ha, maybe I should have licensed my comment.

    You’re wrong though.

    Using code from an MIT licensed project will not allow others to exploit your work. MIT is compatible with almost all other licenses, so you can incorporate the code without needing to relicense your project.

    If you meant that choosing to license your entire project with MIT would allow others to exploit your work, then yes, that’s the whole point of the license.

    For some small projects, I’m completely fine with throwing it out into the world with no expectation of anything in return.

    If a company ends out using my 50-line file conversion tool in their commercial product, I see that as a bonus thing to put on my résumé.
