Punjab University (PU) Islami Jamiat-e-Talba (IJT) Nazim Zubair Safdar claimed on Monday that Microsoft Founder Bill Gates, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, nuclear scientist Abdul Qadeer and the Imam-e-Kaba will attend the IJT’s congregation at the PU next month.
He was speaking at a press conference at the Lahore Press Club to brief journalists about the schedule, arrangements and guests for the congregation. Safdar also claimed participation of 0.1 million students and said that 29 committees with 1,000 members were working for the success of the event. The congregation will be held from October 15 to 17. The security team will consist of 500 members. Around 500 washrooms and a 50-bed hospital will also be established in this regard.
AWESOME MANAGEMENT
DID YOU KNOW ??
After reading the January 1975 issue of Popular Electronics that demonstrated the Altair 8800, Gates contacted Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems (MITS), the creators of the new microcomputer, to inform them that he and others were working on a BASIC interpreter for the platform. In reality, Gates and Allen did not have an Altair and had not written code for it; they merely wanted to gauge MITS's interest. MITS president Ed Roberts agreed to meet them for a demo, and over the course of a few weeks they developed an Altair emulator that ran on a minicomputer, and then the BASIC interpreter. The demonstration, held at MITS's offices in Albuquerque, was a success and resulted in a deal with MITS to distribute the interpreter as Altair BASIC. Paul Allen was hired into MITS,[44] and Gates took a leave of absence from Harvard to work with Allen at MITS in Albuquerque in November 1975. They named their partnership "Micro-Soft" and had their first office located in Albuquerque.[44] Within a year, the hyphen was dropped, and on November 26, 1976, the trade name "Microsoft" was registered with the Office of the Secretary of the State of New Mexico. Gates never returned to Harvard to complete his studies.
Microsoft's BASIC was popular with computer hobbyists, but Gates discovered that a pre-market copy had leaked into the community and was being widely copied and distributed. In February 1976, Gates wrote an Open Letter to Hobbyists in the MITS newsletter saying that MITS could not continue to produce, distribute, and maintain high-quality software without payment.[45] This letter was unpopular with many computer hobbyists, but Gates persisted in his belief that software developers should be able to demand payment. Microsoft became independent of MITS in late 1976, and it continued to develop programming language software for various systems. The company moved from Albuquerque to its new home in Bellevue, Washington on January 1, 1979.
During Microsoft's early years, all employees had broad responsibility for the company's business. Gates oversaw the business details, but continued
to write code as well. In the first five years, Gates personally reviewed every line of code the company shipped, and often rewrote parts of it as he saw fit. ( Just Share – kontraktor interior jakarta )
