Why Software Should Be Free By Richard Stallman

In the article The Intellectual Free Lunch, the Wall Street Journal focuses on a middle-class group of white men that are mad at welfare and lobbyists. The thesis “Washington should stop sending money aboard and instead zero in on the domestic front”. The thesis explains that the Americans government need to spend more money on our own country and less on foreign aid. Basically, stop sending money out of our country or giving free handouts. Instead we need to focus on our own nation and help build our economics first, before giving money and resulting us to overspend our budget.

Free enterprise allows for individuals to have large economic freedoms with some regulations from the government. Many entrepreneur have taken advantage of the system and gained immense wealth. A great example is Bill Gate who has made a huge contribution to the technological industry. His investments in companies like microsoft has helped make it one of the biggest companies in the world. Without a lot of restrictions from the government Bill Gates's fortune grew and without free enterprise his companies wouldn't be as huge as they are now.

After his introduction, he began to recall his school life when he was studying in the Harvard. By telling his story, he told audience how he began his business. After his business, he talked about what he had thought about during the 30 years. Then, his main point came out: “In your years here, I hope you've had a chance to think about how--in this age of accelerating technology--we can finally take on these inequities, and we can solve them.” Then, Bill Gates gave an example for the inequities: there were millions of children were dying from poverty and disease. Then, Gates started talked about how to help these children from dying, “If we can find approaches that meet the needs of the poor in ways that generate profits for business and

A thesis statement of Jim Harpers essay, Web Users Get as Much as They Give, is Although the World Wide Web uses consumer data to function, some can argue that without that data, the internet would not be as useful as it is today.

In David Friedman’s book, “The Machinery of Freedom”, he argues for anarcho-capitalism, the theory that believes the state should be abolished because it is unnecessary and a free-market should be put into place. Usually, anarcho-capitalism is defended from one of two views, consequentialist or deontologist. Friedman takes the consequentialist side believing that it is actually more desirable for the market to provide law and protection than the state because it gives the people choice to choose what they believe and competition will promote improvement. Deontologists, however, believe that any initiation of force is immoral, so they would prefer a law banning the initiation of force rather than private protection agencies. Despite

Gladwell’s last example of opportunity paving the way to success is Bill Gates. Gladwell paints a picture of a privileged childhood, private schools, well-funded computer clubs and easily accessible

I became interested in computers during the early 1990s and it happened right in my house. Within my community no one really knew what a "programmer" was or how to become one. At first, programmers were the engineers the circuits and processors. In April 1990, I volunteered to help my brother, a Computer Information Systems major at UTPA, to program the IBM-1401. I was 13-years old, had graduated from high school five years later, and decided to study the field of computers, specifically information technology (IT). In today’s high-tech world, virtually every business needs computer networking professionals to set up and maintain an in-office network (Irvine, 2011). This includes a variety of tasks such as engineering the network infrastructure, administering Windows systems and maintaining an email system (Irvine, 2011).

Based on Davidson and Kumagai’s (2008) article, list three advantages and risks associated with open source software.

With an open source program, anybody can create for the program, giving it a much bigger foundation for designers and gives them a greater sense of proprietorship as they can change whatever they like (Sacks, 2015).

Free software is free, users can change code, and source code is available to anyone.

“People think that computer science is the art of geniuses but the actual reality is the opposite, just many people doing things that build on each other, like a wall of mini stones”. (Knuth, 1968)

If you knew Bill Gates well, you would know that he’s full of desire. All the software ever written in the world is never sufficient for Mr. Gates. He always desires something noble. He believes something good is not for just a few people. But it’s for all. This is should not be in the negative light because that’s what actually gave birth to Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Mr. and Mrs. Gates wanted you to desire something good and work toward it. So they delved into charitable giving and are recording great successes worldwide. Bill’s desire was that there should be something different from the gigantic machines called the computer in those days. He desired something that everyone could use with ease. And he introduced it to the world.

There are 7 individuals on the planet who hold the "key to the web." If in the occasion of a significant disaster the web is closed down these key holders will together have the capacity to reboot an essential piece of the framework. Computers are a radiant deed of engineering. They have developed from straightforward number crunchers to machines with numerous functions and abilities. Computers have gotten to be common to the point that practically every home has no less than one computer, and schools discover them a decent hotspot for data and training for their understudies. Computers have made new professions and dispensed with others and have left an enormous effect on our general public. The development of the computer has incredibly influenced expressions of the human experience, the business world, and society and history in numerous diverse zones, yet to see how extraordinary these progressions are, it is important to examine the sources of the computers. Innovation has changed the world and the future holds greater creations for every one of us. Numerous individuals have helped innovation. Three of the numerous individuals who have helped engineering are Tim Berners-Lee, Steve Ballmer, and Linus Torvalds. Without specific individuals we may have not seen a large portion of these new advances turning out so soon, but I believe the future holds more.

The benefits of computer science can be minor, and it also can be huge. On the minor side, we can search anything on a computer today, without even having to step outside. For example, if we are looking for some resources for our research paper, we can easily check online libraries instead of flipping through pages from different books at a physical library we had to travel to. It seems to have become fashionable nowadays to write naysayer articles about how popular efforts to expand computer science educations are waste of time. [1]. Computer science is the major key for the establishment of data base for most companies now, and even majority of the companies are running based on computer systems. Computer science plays an important role in the field of education as well. Computer Science is much more than learning to code, and its benefits go beyond knowing a particular programming language.
