TechrightsBot-tr | Title: The Lines of Influence in Education Reform | Seattle Education 2010 .::. Size~: 218.63 KB | Sep 05 00:48 |
FurnaceBoy | schestowitz: he can't hide it forever. The evidence of his 'press for hire' will come out | Sep 05 00:48 |
schestowitz | Another example is the AFT, the American Federation of Teachers, where Bill Gates gave AFT $3.4M for “teacher quality initiatives” and $217, 200 for AFT conference expenses. See: Did Bill Gates Buy His Podium at the AFT Convention? Sometimes a breakdown of the numbers provides a more clear picture of the power and influence of money. | Sep 05 00:48 |
schestowitz | Then there is money “with stipulations” that the Gates Foundation provided to NPR. The purpose of that money is “to support coverage of education issues on NPR programs, including the Morning Edition and All Things Considered”. The amount provided was $750,000. I don’t feel comfortable with that on many levels. | Sep 05 00:48 |
schestowitz | " | Sep 05 00:48 |
schestowitz | "There was also $301,768 given to Minnesota Public Radio. The purpose stated was to “strengthen the quality and quantity of reporting on issues related to the nation’s low college completion rates” which plays into the Gates’ agenda. The sad part is that NPR felt the need to take the money and potentially provide a skewed viewpoint on issues in education or report on some aspects of ed reform and not others." | Sep 05 00:48 |
schestowitz | "Then there is the pocket-money for the Alliance for Education under the heading “general operating support” for $3,000 and the junket to Denver for $6,000 “to support a delegation of Seattle Public School district officials to meet with Brad Jupp and the administration in Denver for “best practices” on teacher labor agreements”. Denver, by the way, is being converted to all things ed-reform. Gates is financing much of that | Sep 05 00:49 |
schestowitz | "The list goes on but by now you’re probably starting to get the big picture. Broad and Gates have decided what is best for our children based on no experience in education and none of their own children or grand children in public schools. There has been no dialogue between parents and teachers." | Sep 05 00:49 |

schestowitz | oiaohm: never heard of it | Sep 05 10:42 |
oiaohm | Lot of the prep development is running under the radar. | Sep 05 10:43 |
oiaohm | ebox/Zentyal goal is to produce a direct competitor to MS SBS server. | Sep 05 10:43 |
schestowitz | *LOL* just two Zune headlines in two whole weeks of news | Sep 05 10:43 |
oiaohm | Now MS SBS server is microsoft largest selling server type. | Sep 05 10:44 |
oiaohm | Basically longer MS is looking the wrong way wasting resources attacking items like advocacy the better. | Sep 05 10:45 |
oiaohm | Think about it Mono correctly pushed could have damaged Linux future development. | Sep 05 10:46 |
MinceR | how? | Sep 05 10:46 |
oiaohm | MS could have been selling windows update system for Linux. Sharepoint for Linux .... Attempting to make all development .net based. Then release a OS that at core is designed to run .net well | Sep 05 10:48 |
oiaohm | Linux is not really designed to run .net or java based Languages to there max. MinceR | Sep 05 10:48 |
MinceR | ic | Sep 05 10:48 |
oiaohm | MS forgot there basic old rules. | Sep 05 10:49 |
MinceR | they would have probably failed with that | Sep 05 10:49 |
oiaohm | Embrace. | Sep 05 10:49 |
MinceR | before they could release that new OS, people would have moved on to GNU/Linux | Sep 05 10:49 |
oiaohm | MS never has truly attempted to properly Embrace Linux. | Sep 05 10:49 |
MinceR | also, they couldn't ever design anything that functioned well | Sep 05 10:49 |
MinceR | also, that new OS would have ran pre-.NET apps badly, and thus would have been doomed to fail. | Sep 05 10:50 |
oiaohm | Also in that mix would have been a MS own fileserver for Linux. | Sep 05 10:50 |
oiaohm | Basically full embrace. | Sep 05 10:50 |
oiaohm | Cause open source projects not to have a home anywhere away from microsoft. | Sep 05 10:50 |
MinceR | besides, what idiot would buy winblows update for gnu/linux? | Sep 05 10:50 |
MinceR | it sucks horribly even on winblows | Sep 05 10:51 |
oiaohm | Of course MS doing this would fail because they fail at doing quality software. | Sep 05 10:51 |
MinceR | and on gnu/linux the package managers take care of updates | Sep 05 10:51 |
oiaohm | Remember in this game MS still would have the advantage. | Sep 05 10:51 |
oiaohm | Ie own protocals. MinceR | Sep 05 10:51 |
oiaohm | Now leave Linux to its own devices and it can develop its own path and need MS less and less. | Sep 05 10:52 |
MinceR | and that's part of why i'd have been reluctant to adopt .net even if they licensed the patents properly | Sep 05 10:52 |
oiaohm | Yep screwing up the patent licensing was trying to have foot on both sides. | Sep 05 10:52 |
oiaohm | Ie embrance and not embrance at the same time it don't work. | Sep 05 10:53 |
oiaohm | MS has also forgot what help them to win the browser war. | Sep 05 10:53 |
