Listening to Gates talking about since makes the irony of it biting. Excel, the software designed under his watch keeps destroying scientific results, to the point gene names had to be renamed.

Not to mention how Windows did all possible to hamstring Linux for decades, setting back science for god knows how long.

thanks Bill.

Make sure you warm up before making a stretch like this, folks.
