Re:Open Source on its own is no alternative to Big Tech by teddyh on Tuesday October 29, 2024 @06:21AM (#41982083)
The issue at hand was me making an analogy about how Meta releasing LLaMA to many .edu addresses still would not mean that LLaMA would be actually used widely, since the Unix™ source code was similarly released by Bell Labs, but the actual Unix™ source code did not end up being the code which we now use.

The fact that UNIX™ later went on to become a compatibility specification, not a specific implementation, is irrelevant to the analogy.
