How GitHub and LinkedIn Will Help Microsoft Drive the Cloud Revolution
- arunmp 8y agoThe transformation of Microsoft into an opensource champion almost makes me feel old when I remember those days :) way to go, Microsoft and respects to Satya Nadella who managed this transformation.
- rising-sky 8y agoPretty remarkable, and seems very genuine which is quite astonishing given their history
- some_account 8y agoIt seems genuine because they have great PR people and also people seem a bit dumber today. They forget things, and they trust bad actors at their word if it seems they want to change. Google also appears like a force for good in people's minds. Microsoft just decided to use the same tactics.
- nsstring96 8y agoLinkedIn may be looking like a decent acquisition right now, but my god it feel awfully old to use, and I'm not sure how long the first-mover advantage will mitigate these shortcomings. Performance-wise, LinkedIn seems a step slower than not just Facebook or Twitter but even products from younger companies. The website is not very responsive, especially when displaying more than a few screenfuls of content, and the mobile apps are equally bad and lack any kind of smoothness.
