Part of the problem of selling a show or movie to CBS or Paramount or Skydance, or booking an acting role on a project of theirs is purely business.
If potus decides he doesn’t like a project, CEOs George Cheeks, Brian Robbins & David Ellison will kill the project regardless of how well it does. They did just now to Colbert & The Late Show (number 1 in its time slot).
Why start business w/them that hurts others & will hurt you the moment they feel like it.

There is an idea of software packages that are open source and free (as in beer) to use, but upon actual use mine a cryptocurrency. The proceeds of which are used to pay the developers and fund the project's larger infrastructure (hosting, etc).

Calamus 38 Primeval my love for the woman I love
Finally a love poem with a female subject! Or is it?
Primeval my love for the woman I love,
It starts off obviously heterosexual, his love for a woman. But then most of the poem is about another love, for "O man", "the last athletic reality". It sounds like he's elevating the love of this other man to "the ethereal", something more spiritual in contrast to the primeval of the first line. But in the context of the rest of Calamus maybe he's saying more about that love for this athletic man, the "sharer of my roving life".
Edit: the Calamus Project reading suggests an extra meaning of "sharer of my roving life". It sounds like Whitman is stepping out on his wife, "roving" with a man on the side.
