For those who don't care about astrology, try to follow along; the principle is
pretty practical.

The Piscean Era has begun around 0-400 A.D and, according to the math, will
last until very soon. The Pisces sign has several connotations: _sacrifice_,
_martyrization_, _faith_, _dogma_ and _spiritual dictatorship_. This is still a
challenge for many creative and passionate developers who wish to spread wings
and bring a better world through technology. Only the bravest survive the food
chain and those won't don't become slaves.
The Aquarian Era follows the Piscean. It stands for _freedom_, _love_ and
_consciousness_. These are the values I fight for. My goal is to build great
stuff on the web, the way I feel it should be done. A lot of what's built today
looks great, but there are still major issues to tackle when it comes to
fulfilling needs. Those needs are overrated and they don't help the smallest,
the poorest and the less bright; they only serve the allegedly powerful and
certainly wealthy.
Open source is an awesome Aquarian movement. It's not just the code, it's a
whole mindset. It lets people make their move and be rewarded for it. That
reward is not just money, it's also the joy of the contribution and hope for
evolution.
This is not about companies anymore, each team member is too important to be
masked with a company logo. People move a lot these days, there's actually no
point in fixating all the credit in one company in a point in time. Letting
developers choose what they want to do is crucial to creativity. They will do
what it takes if they feel it's the right thing to do.
