Bill Gates demands open source by ZDNet‘s Dana Blankenhorn — “We have to change the way we work,” is the way Nick Hellman, the interim director of HIV projects at the Foundation, put it.
Bill Gates is demanding that AIDS researchers share or open source their results if they’re to get some of the $287 million the Gates Foundation is putting into the search for AIDS vaccines.
From the article:
“The Foundation has recognized that one of the forces slowing medical progress is greed commercial rivalries, bureaucratic rivalries, personal rivalries.”
Hey Bill. Kiss my ass! Let’s take the quote above and remove the word “medical”. Now let’s try again.
“The Foundation has recognized that one of the forces slowing progress is greed — commercial rivalries, bureaucratic rivalries, personal rivalries.”
Tell that to all the developers and companies you’ve left destroyed along your way to the top. You’ve left innovative companies & their technologies dead and stifled everywhere you’ve gone.
Yes, I agree that medical research should be opened up for faster progress but talk about being a damned hypocrite. Shut your mouth. You piss me off.
Agreed
