How hard does a 28 year old person need to work to convince you they're not the same as they were when they were 8 years old? Microsoft has changed CEOs and lower leadership a number of times in the last 20 years. I submit that it would be difficult to find ANY company that can go 20 years without changing.
- barfbuttface 10y agoThe new CEO's aren't elected. They're all hired by the same people. The same people who did it before.
- duncan_bayne 10y agoChange? Sure. But they've done nothing to suggest they've shed their utterly user-hostile philosophy from 20 years ago. It just manifests in different ways. To run with your analogy: imagine you ran into someone at 40, someone you hadn't seen in 20 years. 20 years ago he was into petty theft and vandalism. These days, he works as a lawyer for a patent troll. The specifics have changed; his character has not.
