#AlsGeekLab does a good job of telling the story of #GaryKildall and #DigitalResearch. It's important to be reminded just how rapacious and repeatedly scummy #BillGates and #Microsoft were, from the very beginning.
As others on here have said in different contexts: if someone shows you who they are, believe them. Being a philanthropist doesn't give you a free pass for your bad behaviour, and creates all kinds of perverse incentives. Shout out to #AnandGiridharadas and his 2018 book "Winners Take All: The Elite Charade of Changing the World".
