🧵 (1/4)
I just had a discussion with my boss (in a state-funded #academic #hospital department) about the fact that some of the #software developed here, is being sold, mostly to academic institutions.
His only argument: we need to pay our people so we can continue doing what we do. He said this, even though admitting that this software is not even paying its own development. Indeed, the costs involved in the overhead of making the software sellable may not even be covered.
