Great post!
More people should be aware of who Gary Kildall was and his story. Bill Gates STOLE CP/M then claimed he 'invented' it. Ironically Gary was killed 'following a blow to his head at the Franklin Street Bar & Grill in Monterey, California on July 8, 1994. Gary also died a broke man. Shit like this was the catalyst of my path into the UNIX (and UNIXlike) world that shaped the rest of my life and career. I have decades of well seasoned hate toward Bill Gates and his recent evil activites, from Vaxz to land buyups, never came as a surprise.
The other day, a very cool (based) ex co-worker of mine asked if I would be a professional reference for him. I accepted and gave his potential employer great (and truthful) feedback. I received an email this morning that he got the job! Felt really good to be able to help out a fren in need and a great start to the weekend for the both of us.
So, Diversity = "People of color" and/or "LGBTQ****"? uhhhhh, yeah.
Then, if there are 5 different white people in a group, say from France, Germany, Sweden, Ireland, and Ukraine (all speaking their native tongue). Would that would NOT also be considered, Diversity? No, because they're WHITE? This is the epitome of racism in a nutshell.
Everything from bare metal servers to various cloud integrations to custom fail-over security/firewall devices to just being an open-source evangelist. Over the past 25 years of wearing different systems/networking/security hats, you name it and I've probably touched it.
