EDIT: And he pushed a LICENSE file just now.

"I provide this code with no warrantee whatsoever. But hey, if you want to take the risk and run it, go for it."

I think that's FOSS compatible.

I wonder what you mean by FOSS compatible? Copyright by default is rather restrictive; to make something free, you must explicitly grant these freedoms. A warranty disclaimer does not grant people the freedom to copy, modify, sell, redistribute, etc.
