You know, I even go a step farther and comment out all of my code as to
what each bit is doing.....
I've never had an issue where someone ripped apart my stuff so they could
do it themselves -- although I was paid to train a few people in
basics...I had no problem with that.
Personally, I have to weigh all this against the possibilities of the work
life I could be leading -- hell I'm not lifting anything heavy, I don't
have to kill things or cut things up, I don't have to serve food to
anyway...instead I get to work from home in my own chair, listen to my own
music, watch my own dvds, take breaks to play with my nine-month-old
daughter, jump in the pool.....and work at 5am if I choose to.
If I have to give away my code for this what the hell do I care? I'm the
guy that wrote it, I can do it again. And, if anything, I've found my
demeaner to be what gets me more work in the future; I doubt I'd get as
much work if I made a big stink about giving out my source code -- and I'm
serious, I'm not trying to be funny with that....I've gotten more return
clients because of what they know that I can do, and sometimes BECAUSE
they've gone through my code. Actually I remember one gig I got I had to
show some code before I got the job....if I didn't do that, I wouldn't
have had 3 months of work...
