[@abram3283]

@@roodborstkalf9664 "Gates is much more likeable and balanced" That's only because he spent more on PR. You've likely been reading articles written by a group of journalists who's been hired by his PR team to write nice things about him. The media can be bought let's not forget that. Also, Gates paved the way and shown to greedy assholes like Jobs and Ellison that you can make it really really big in the IT world if you have the guts to be a greedy asshole. Before Microsoft, the IT world was much more accessible and laid back. Everything was open source. The early computer nerds became computer nerds because they hated the culture of the big, bad corps like IBM or AT&T(even Jobs, Wozniak and Ellison famously hated them). Early on, Silicon Valley present itself as an alternative to the strict and uncompromising world of giant corporations so young people can make a living without having to be exploited by old, greedy and corrupt CEOs and bankers. Then Microsoft came along and instilled the corrupt and ruthless corporate culture of those big corporations into the IT world for his own success at the expense of other people's career(thousands of them!). Microsoft was also the first company to began practicing hostile acquisition of smaller companies and that led them into trouble back in the late 90s. But that does not mean they've changed. They're still doing that. They've just gotten better at dodging the law. Every IT product today cost as much as it is today because Microsoft had the rights for almost everything and they just set the price that will benefit themselves at our expenses as regular customer. Bill Gates is one of the most corrupt Americans in the last 50 years it's hilarious to see someone says he's likeable. If Larry is the samurai warrior of Silicon Valley than Bill is that bloodthirsty, warmongering general from the Imperial Japan era who ordered genocides and ethnic cleansing in Asia then later got his own people nuked by the US thanks to his unwillingness to stop his massacre(which is comparable to how Microsoft got sued by the govt back in the 90s).

This explains a lot about my experience with them. I never worked there, but we've had the misfortune of being trapped in their technology stack. This is a company that has succeeded essentially by taking its customers hostage (though, admittedly, not on purpose) since the extreme complexity of the systems built on their technology makes it enormously expensive and time consuming to switch vendors. Their database is their only decent product, in my opinion, but I don't think this company has staying power. They're doing fine now, but I bet they'll implode in the next 20 years when the other tech giants will still be alive and well.

An important message for people who work in big company or small company. It is always necessary to have the company badges. Whether expired or you were fired from the company. Because badges gives the glimpse of tell tale of which company you worked for earlier and as what. This gives a security for people who want to hire. It doesn't matter even if you resigned or left the company or you were fired from the company. The most problems the company face when hiring an employee is whether you had been working for at least some time. This gives a confidence in hiring people. This is true for college and schools and other vocational training you have been through. Larry was hired by oracle in early 1900s because he had the badge of the previous company he worked. And people knew him.

Some day i hope to become the complete opposite of this.. sad viewing

It's hilarious that all the comments on here are negative. Who comes and watches a video about a guy they hate and then leave bad comment. No wonder this guy is rich, people can't get enough of him even if they hate him.

[@drummysh]

the history of Oracle started when Larry stole software on early stage. He managed to grow it bigger. But he didnt create anything

[@reggierico]

Larry loves airplanes and loves to fly. Oracle has a large flight department for the company's executives and a personal flight department just for himself! The old idea that rich people stay rich by being thrifty is applicable to Larry. I know a guy, who retired from the military and then was offered a job as one of Larry's personal pilots. When they were talking about compensation, Larry included this guys' retirement pay from the military as part of his total compensation package. Nice try...

Oracle licensimg cost is way big but its plsql syntax was easy to learn, it was the first dbms i studied at 12th grade before joining for computer science. Core banking system runs in Oracle Database.

I absolutely love him. Find out what you want AND GO GET IT, PERIOD!!!

[@JoostEurovisionFans]

- He lied about stuff - Many bugs in products - Willing to to do whatever to make money (what does that mean? Cheat? Steal?) - Aggressive sales. Push people to close deals. I bet this documentary is even just. apron made to promote and portray him as a serious businessman. So arrogant, not even realising he is showing off and from reading the comments I can honestly say: A twat. The real winner is the one who fights and wins, without giving up his values. Values!!! You know what that is? Your moral compass. Honesty. That kind of stuff. I pass. Thank you.

The top-shelf tail he's pulling thanks to his wealth.

Genius and The courage to take over what one believes in.

The sound effects makes me feel I'm watching Hell's Kitchen or something.

I like multiple-choice options and drawing/writing space.

[@aaronhughes5913]

I think his whole culture of being that competitive all the time will in time prove to be considered anti-social

[@mosesmuricy3362]

Stuart feigin, hilarious how he talks about Larry. Super honest! 😆
