It is easy to criticize or speak ill of the richest man in the world, what is not so easy is to achieve what he has achieved…
William Henry Gates III was born on October 28, 1955. He and his two sisters grew up in Seattle. His father, William H. Gates II, is a Seattle attorney. Her mother, Mary Gates, was a college professor, principal of the University of Washington, and president of the United Way International.
Gates studied in a public school before going to Lakeside School, a private school in northern Seattle. It was there that Bill started his career as a programmer, at age 13… A computer enthusiast, he teamed up with his friend Paul Allen. The idea to develop the first programming language came reading an article in Popular Electronics magazine, about the Altair 8800 minicomputer.
The language was called BASIC and Paul and Gates believed that they could make a lot of money from BASIC by selling it to other machines. So they created Microsoft Partnership and started selling it.
In the following four years they created other programming languages such as Cobol and Fortran. After this, they were powerful enough to open a new division in their company, and to win their first legal battle against MITS, inventor of the Altair, over ownership of the rights.
Windows
After the success of MS –DOS, the first DOS platform arrived, which is known by the new name of Windows, which generates a graphical interface, which makes computers more user-friendly and simple and becomes the world number 1 operating system.
In April 1979 they received the IPC Million Dollar Award for their work and spent that money to open a new subdivision to sell the Microsoft Partnership software. In June 1981 Microsoft Partnership became Microsoft Corporation, with Bill Gates as President and Paul Allen as Vice President. In August of that same year, IBM creates IBM PC and asks Bill to make an operating system for him. A friend of his named Tim Peterson had programmed a QDOS (Quick and Dirty Disk Operating System) for 16-bit Intel Chips, Bill bought it for $ 75,000. Bill and Paul changed QDOS to work at 8 bit and made the changes that IBM asked them to do.
The story that follows is better known, after the success of MS –DOS, the first DOS platform arrived, which is known by the new name of Windows, which generates a graphical interface, which makes the management of computers and it becomes the number 1 operating system in the world.
Today Microsoft Corporation focuses on the new global information platform: The Internet and its application Microsoft Internet Explorer is the most widely used browser in the world.
Microsoft Corporation has exhorbitant stock market value, Bill Gates is the richest man on the planet, and his power is currently pitted against antitrust organizations in the United States.
The curious thing:
About the richest man in the world, many types of speculations have been made, among the best known are the different versions about his relationship with dark forces and there are even organizations that promote rejection of his organization.
For example look at this gif:
Surfing the internet (under the internet explorer by the way), I found a page that makes jokes, and generally criticizes and rejects the figure of this man.
Among the most interesting questions I found:
Watch out, Bill Gates may be the antichrist
Revelation 13:18 says:
Here you will see who is wise. If you are understood, interpret the number of the Beast. This is a man, and his number is 666.
Bill Gates' real name is William Henry Gates III (third). Better known as Bill Gates III.
Converting the letters of your name to the ASCII code, used by computers, you will get the following:
BILLGATES 3
66 + 73 + 76 + 76 + 71 + 65 + 84 + 69 + 83 + 3 = 666
Daniel 7:23 says:
«The fourth Beast will be a fourth kingdom that will be on earth, different from all kingdoms; it will devour the earth, crush it and destroy it »
Is Windows a virus?
Windows is not a virus. This is what viruses do:
They reproduce quickly - well, Windows does that.
Viruses take up valuable system resources, causing the computer to work slowly - well, Windows does that, too.
Occasionally viruses destroy your hard drive - okay, Windows does that too.
Viruses are usually transmitted, without users noticing, along with valuable programs and systems - well, Windows too.
Occasionally viruses make users suspect that their computer is too slow and the user will buy a new device - hehe, with Windows that happens too.
So far Windows appears to be a virus, but there are substantial differences:
Viruses are well backed by their authors, they work on most systems, the code of their programs is fast, compact and efficient, they also tend to become more sophisticated with each new version.
Therefore Windows is not a virus.
Regardless of any destructive criticism, Bill Gates, in my opinion, represents one of the icons of our modern history, since he demonstrated that only good ideas are lacking to change the world and demonstrated that technological advance and modernization are the factors that dominate our planet. in the new millennium.
