RE: My full comments to Nature News on Microsoft's acquisition of GitHub

Thanks! Yeah I was stoked the live stream / recording worked. It was from my iPhone, so the fact that it didn't go offline or break was a miracle in its own right.

You didn't want to submit to Nature as a student but now they come to you for commentary

For those who don't know my view, it's that scholarly publications should be freely available and openly licensed, since they're usually publicly funded. Nature is the most prestigious journal, but still applies the outdated subscription model to most of its articles. It's sad that much of the most impactfull science gets locked behind paywalls with licenses that prohibit sharing and reusing the content. Yuck!
