I wrote this in another comment so I'm just gonna repost it here. I really don't get how is this a problem. Now you can use acceleration for ML under WSL. Great. If you don't want to do that, what's stopping you from using ML on native Linux as you're doing right now? They are not changing Linux. They are adding something to Windows. Why are you all so threatened all the time? Even if Microsoft does... idk what you think it will do, you can still use your favorite flavor of linux with the tools you want, the language you want, the framework you want. And to quote many people from open source: you still have the source code so if there is something you don't like you can always change it and build a version that better suits your needs. How is IBM's or Oracle's involvement in open source not a bad things? Is Oracle really someone who's suddenly ok? From all these comments, all I see is: someone is going to build a different toy and many will want to play with that instead of this. "Many Mac users choose OSX for the neat desktop experience Linux struggled to offer, and the *nix-like interface Microsoft had been missing. WSL and Microsoft's recent contributions to Linux has changed the Windows developer experience significantly, giving many previously hesitant Mac shops the nod." Okay, so? It's Windows. Feel free to ignore it. How does that threaten your emacs/node/c/python/gnome/tensorflow working environment? When docker wasn't working on Windows nobody cared. Why should I have to install vmware or dualboot just because someone can't be bothered to make docker work normally on windows?
