Microsoft acquires Github
People keep mentioning how "Microsoft changed" due to VS Code, the Linux subsystem, .NET Core.I say that they are the same company, only with different cash cows.Haven't they spied on Windows 10 users? Do they not engage in patents racketeering? Haven't they killed Nokia and ruined Skype?"But Mom, some of the other companies are doing it too", well yeah, but some of us don't have double standards, in spite of what you'd think and that doesn't absolve them of anything ;-)Brilliant marketing campaign though. They needed it I guess, but it's getting obnoxious.---That said I'm glad that after the acquisition GitHub will be led by Nat Friedman, the former CEO of Xamarin, which has some credibility.At least the news isn't all bad.
