IMO, only paragraph missing was:
> “3 hours/week, my company lets me upstream code to their favorite MIT-licensed #FOSS project! That counts. Of course, in exchange, I have to post on y-combinator how bad #copyleft is & file a #GitHub ticket telling some #AGPLv3'd project to change licenses. Oh, & all the best patches with new features stay on our internal branch…but *I* fixed all typos & misspellings upstream!”
