Aquest paràgraf parla de sistemes de control de versions per al codi de projectes de programari, però m’ha agradat llegir-lo, ja que, al cap i a la fi, és el que es diu des de fa temps (i aplicant a multitud de situacions) a l’entorn ciberpunk.

When every developer has a full copy of the repository on their machine, the hierarchy of open source projects is all but eliminated. Any developer who wishes to work on the source code can clone the repository, commit as much code as they want to it, receive the changes from any other developer’s cloned repository, and publish their work for other developers to use, or pull back into their own repositories. In a decentralized system, it doesn’t matter who has the “…keys to the source repository…” (it actually says that on the rails core team page — take a look for yourself). If the original author continues to maintain the best version of the code, great; if not, users of that code can begin to pull from whoever does have the best version.

Val la pena que, faci el que es faci en la vida, sempre hi hagi la possibilitat de dir, jo m’ho vull cuinar a casa, o d’una altra manera o, simplement, adéu.
