You don't know the difference between "I painted a picture" and "I asked Samantha to paint this picture"?

Notice how you said "we" instead of "I". If some CEO posted "Hey, 'I' made this neat tool!" and took credit for the work of the staff that would be a more accurate comparison.

For those that care about privacy, couldn't you just use an alias? alias ssh='ssh -o IdentityAgent=/dev/null -o IdentityFile=/dev/null -v' then you can do ssh funky.nondeterministic.computer and get the same functionality.

Just add it to your .ssh/config file

Because it would take years to prepare for but would be run and completed in seconds?

From the vim website: "Why those ads?

The profits made from ads and links on vim.org go to ICCF Holland to help poor children in Uganda."

Is there somewhere you can point that states ad profit is going to developers?

Wooooow. Some of these were really great!
