That's absolutely stupid - the internet's been the best thing to happen to the earth in millennia, if not ever. Apologizing for it would be like apologizing for modern medicine.
> Ellen Pao, former CEO of Reddit. Filed major gender-discrimination lawsuit against VC firm Kleiner Perkins.
> Can Duruk, programmer and tech writer. Served as project lead at Uber.
Ah. These people. Not sure what they've built, really. Certainly not the internet. Pao certainly didn't build reddit, and I'm fairly sure Duruk didn't build the first prototype of Uber.
> Richard Stallman, MIT programmer. Created legendary software GNU and Emacs.
First of all, it's not "GNU Plus Internet;" secondly, Stallman barely even uses the internet and even stopped programming way before it was relevant. GNU isn't software. I'm also 80% sure those quotes of him are fake.
- malvosenior 9y agoPao also lost her discrimination suit. That fact is conveniently left out of her history. I can claim anything I want but if a jury finds my claims to be false, I don't know how that makes me some sort of expert (let alone someone who "created" the internet).
