You restored the license to GPL v3: https://github.com/pickle-com/glass/commit/5c462179acface889...

You won't be forgiven unless you credited sohzm and state that cheating-daddy is a direct inspiration

I love comments like this ^. It provides a solution to the table, rather than conversing the problem over dinner.

IMO This sounds pretty fair to me. Publicly apologize somewhere, and link OP to it. I like that. Or come on, at least Venmo "the kid" $1000 -- "a kid" who saved you time, and is putting food on your table.

"A kid" whose idea you took and profited on. Wow, just realizing upon writing this -- what if Pickle CEO has kids, and one your kid reads this?
