#ClosedSource Meets #OpenSource: #Microsoft's Founder #BillGates and #Linux's Creator #LinusTorvalds Cross Paths For First Time in 50yr
Both of them were seen at a dinner hosted by #MarkRussinovich, CTO of Microsoft #Azure
Gates focuses on innovation through acquisition and corporate control, but Linux's creator is all about collaboration.
Probably, difference in ideologies is primary reason why they haven't met, but apart from that, there isn't known enmity between them.
