Bill Gates on Jeffrey Epstein: “Every meeting where I was with him were meetings with men. I was never at any parties or anything like that. He never donated any money to anything that I know about.” https://www.wsj.com/...

I just wish Bill Gates would help straighten out the mess he created with the H1B visa program. Indian employment agencies have taken over hiring STEM workers in Silicon Valley. This is a mess. https://www.wsj.com/... via @WSJ

Huh. Bill Gates “has made a long-term commitment to the work of David Foster Wallace. Mr. Gates says he is reading ‘every word’ the late author wrote before tackling his epic novel Infinite Jest.” https://www.wsj.com/...
