Capitalism: steal first, apologize with no real repurcussions later

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 month ago (5 children)

Sadly, it was Grace Hopper who said "It's easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission."

Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper (9 December 1906 – 1 January 1992) was a U.S. Naval officer, and an early computer programmer. She was the developer of the first compiler for a computer programming language; at the end of her service she was the oldest serving officer in the United States Navy.

That brings me to the most important piece of advice that I can give to all of you: if you've got a good idea, and it's a contribution, I want you to go ahead and DO IT. It is much easier to apologize than it is to get permission.

Yeah, there's some key qualifiers in there

if you’ve got a good idea, and it’s a contribution

Identity theft is neither a good idea or a contribution to society

trump x biden fan fiction being voiced with deepfaked voices is both a good idea, and beneficial to society.
