Summary: Response to revisionists who blame the demise of Nokia on anything but Microsoft's cult tactics and infiltration
The comment [1] sent to us for assessment deals with topics we've covered here for many years [2][3], so equipped with credible reports -- including from high-level insiders -- we're responding to overt revisionism regarding Microsoft, Elop, and Nokia.
Towards the end we also mention how many choose to forget what Microsoft has done to the likes of Nokia, Novell and many others (even Yahoo! this past decade) and instead treat Microsoft like it's not a danger anymore. Two people recently pointed out to me a new FSF article (year's end message) that hardly mentions Microsoft at all. "That's the article with 12 mentions of Apple and one sheepish mention of Microsoft," told us one person in IRC this morning. "Still the same," he said. "FSF is basically Microsoft PR. They will bash everyone but Microsoft. Same situation with EFF. And Linux Foundation" (sponsored by Microsoft for nearly half a decade now). ⬆
ManCity replaced Manuel Pellegrini with a more famous manager it didn't envision winning 20 titles in 10 years (it could only hope) [...] Team-building is something that "Pep" seemed to be good at, as was Jürgen Klopp
IBM has fast-growing debt and liabilities, it does not intend to invest this kind of money, it's a smokescreen and false promises timed to alleviate the sagging share price (52-week low)
The "Mathematics Pope" (sometimes known as "Pope Pi") brought together science and religion, united against technofascists who are mostly college drop-outs who abhor women
"The present mentality around "AI" is like driving to the gym to use a treadmill - it's walking for people who hate fresh air and beautiful changing scenery."
