Microsoft’s GitHub Acquisition – An Unbiased Analysis
- kyberias 8y agoThere was zero analysis in this article. Merely listing all the negative responses to the acquisition and some Microsoft/Github responses.
- dymk 8y agoI suppose it might appear that way to a biased individual
- oaiey 8y agoTotally agree.
- hungerstrike 8y ago> Merely listing all the negative responses... What do you call the paragraphs of text between each listing? I don't think we're looking at the same article.
- jetru 8y agoSlightly OT, but I'm trying to make a point: Is any analysis of anything truly unbiased? I think it's fairly impossible to claim that.
- marenkay 8y agoa) no analysis is unbiased, since every human being has a different view. b) that post is no analysis, it is merely a reiteration of public information.
- std_throwaway 8y agoIf someone says they are unbiased, they are simply compensating for (or hiding) the biases they themselves notice.
- VvR-Ox 8y agoVery unbiased. Like some ppl already stated: There is no human or human-constructed machine which can be without bias. The thing is that many people just don't trust those big entities anymore as we know for sure they do nothing without focusing on their biggest goals as globally operating companies: - maximize profits - make other companies and consumers depend on you / your products to force your own rules on them when they can't leave that easily anymore The fact that M$ tries to appear to be "open source friendly" feels like a strategy to soothe peoples anxieties. It's the same like Googles "don't be evil" - they aren't stupid and know that we [the ppl] watch their steps and react accordingly.
