After laughing at the (hilarious) failure of a good friend’s side project, he countered that eventually it would be great, and he was going to release his code under the “MIT-NoJS” license, for “MIT–No Josh Siler”!

I thought that was pretty funny, so I built this Spiteful MIT license generator. It builds on the great MIT license, with special clauses for that one person you don’t want using your code.

For the record, that code did in fact fail hilariously. It was a multiple file uploader, and the first thing I did (add another file while the first was uploading) was apparently an untested case–multiple progress bars started weaving up and down crazily until both uploads failed.

I’m sure he’ll perfect it soon–check out his blog at http://blog.codeslower.com.
