it’s one of those things that sounds smart and means nothing. yes today we have a lot more vc backed dev focused companies producing content but some of the largest dev tools of yesteryears coexisted with oss and had similar sitch: java (sun v openjdk), c (so many incl aapl), basic (gw, quick, borland turbo), .net (msft, mono), fortran (ibm, cray), python (psf, msft, anaconda)… i can keep going. php+c at facebook or python at google were a choice b/c US academia stuck to stallman/oss ethos.
India, Middle East schools were diff story where msft (be it ms c++) dominated. i was a msft student partner doing evangelism. i think @sriramk.eth was too! 1 reply
