Oracle vs. Google (not the DoD one) - scenarios and implications! If Oracle wins: more charging for using “ideas”/APIs (even data formats?!) in code? If Google wins: less legal control over people using your code (e.g., lessons GPL, etc, powers)?
Google will give up direct control of the Knative open-source project.
Breaking Up Big Blue
IBM to break up 109-year old company to focus on cloud growth
IBM plans to spin off infrastructure services as a separate $19B business.
@NaomiEide: “Once split, IBM expects the new company to earn $19 billion in annual revenue, with IBM bringing in $59 billion in annual revenue. The new company is expected to have 90,000 employees; In 2019, IBM had more than 350,000 employees worldwide.”

Episode 250: Jana Werner, a Head of Transformation

Slide decks, paper proposals and steering group sessions all take a significant investment to prepare, avoiding “difficult” conversations by socializing and re-socializing in advance of exec meetings, deferring decisions, requesting a raft of meeting minutes to document, correcting, amending and signing them off—the majority of which few people read.... The speed of these cycles determines the heartbeat of the organization. Lees meer
