@XAVIAERD #BillGates. He's an #evil, #hypercritical, #genocidal #Maniac, masquerading as a Philanthropist!

Everybody thinks he was the #BigCheese of #ComputerSoftware. That's not true, either. I was privileged to program on Digital Equipment (#DEC) Computers ...
When I programmed #DEC #Computers, running #DEC #Software, #computing was fun. I loved it. Then along comes #BillGates with #MSDos, which I believe he ripped off anyway, and suddenly everyone's talking #ComputerViruses! ...
Whether he's creating #ComputerViruses or sponsoring #DrAnthonyFauci to use #GainOfFunctionResearch to create #Covid19 or dumping #crap in the skies with #Chemtrails or scheming to #Lockdown the entire world or selling poisonous #vaccines #BillGates is shitting on #TheWholeWorld!

1/ Optimizing your MS DOS moments?

When a large client calls with a promise of a few years of work. Enough to put your eldest through college and more.

Don't try to close the deal there and then. Don't quote a price. Don't agree on terms. Set up time for the next call
2/ Why the MS DOS moment reference?

Based on Gary Kildall inability to close an initial deal with IBM when they were shopping for an OS for the IBM PC

3/ Large deals with large clients take time.

You can't rush them. There is a big expectation gap on both ends. You need to document what they really want and price it right. And get paid on a timeline that works for you.
