This is beyond resepectless and shameless to the bones. I don't care about that converted code, what i see is an embarresment.
The specific video is also picked for that reason: to let the deceased developer look bad and make fun of him.
Another clear example that intellectual capacity or intelligence does not develop ethics or compassion as a byproduct on the way - or even was to expect from a developer these days.
At least, the author didn't camouflage anything and stands straight up with that attitude in front of the rest of the world.
I disagree, as a programmer having my code being used long after I am gone would be a great honor.

I believe the linked video is Terry's last video that is why its so special.
There is a whole sub-culture, cult following lore around TempleOS, some of us used to watch the live-streams when Terry was coding in real time. Terry appreciated it and even when he was homeless, he tried very hard to reach his audience.
The treatment of the mentally ill and the vulnerable is a good metric for the society you live in. And if in digital nowadays you'd be mocked more than your lifetime, i think i had a point.
You'd not only suffer till death from it - you'd be made fun of forever, which is really not, what anybody should participate in.
