Microsoft in bed with open-source and embracing Linux. Times have changed.

I saw some folks saying that because of this, there is a mass exodus to Gitlab...which runs on Microsoft Azure. However, it looks like Gitlab is dropping Azure for Google Cloud Compute. (Source: https://venturebeat.com/2018/04/06/why-a...gle-cloud/)

What a time to be in IT and I'm sure hackers (all types) are looking forward to the inevitable holes during these mergers and transitions.
