I left the Microsoft world back in ~ 2011 to be a full time Ruby, Rails, & Web dev. It was such a relief to be operating in a world of open source libraries and frameworks.

Now I see entire companies built upon open source stacks using (Microsoft) TypeScript, running in (Microsoft) Visual Studio Code, collaborating on (Microsoft) GitHub, using (Microsoft) AI coding tools that plagiarise open source code, and running Linux _inside_ (Microsoft) Windows with WSL.

What the hell happened, hackers???
