Just learnt perfectly what the below joke means:

'I wanted to improve the world, but they wouldn't give me the source code'

I really don't understand why the world is full of obsolete processes that people fight against daily when changing things ever so slightly could take the weight of the world off their shoulders. The same thing goes for my work, I work in finance, and we use a remote app built in Windows forms (not xaml or wpf, the original forms) and it's insecure, slow, buggy, and crashes whenever you press ESC (yes, really). Even worse, I've offered to rewrite their whole network for nothing, just the improvement to people's lives. And they say no! WELL FUCK YOU FOR BEING A PLAGUE ON THE FUCKING WORLD! Why do people insist on staying behind the times when the world could be such a beautiful place?!?

    Build it at home. Demo it to them but be clear you own it. When they dont want it sell it to your competition? But i think they'll want it.

    @plumbus I would but I have no idea what they require, there's a lot of regulations because it's finance...

    @RhysOC you shouldn't really think about regulations if it's simply for a demo IMHO. Once they see it and want it, you'll get the chance to polish it.
