I used to work at Microsoft and occasionally would email Satya the same idealistic pitch. I know they have to be more conservative , but some of us have to envision where the math can take us and shout out loud about it, and hope they steer well. When I started at MS, my first week was heckled for installing Ubuntu on my windows machine. When I left, windows was shipping with Ubuntu. What may seem impossible today can become real if enough people push the ball forward together. I even hold out hope that someday BG will see the truth and help reduce the ovarian lottery by legalizing intellectual freedom.
- cnp10 5y agoTalking about the ovarian lottery seems strange in a thread about an AI tool that will turn into a paid service. No one will see the light at Microsoft. The "open" source babble is marketing and recruiting oriented, and some OSS projects infiltrated by Microsoft suffer and stagnate.
