Bill Gates is really an incredible man of many talents and is truly so much knowledge in the computer industry. It is sad that he comes back and lead Microsoft. His passion is there, and he, like Steve Jobs, is one of few that has always been 95% correct.

During the interview, Charlie asked a question to Bill Gates on what do Indians think about him. Mr Gates gave a very humble answer but I want to reply for him. Indians with their age old background are always in search of Godly figures...Mr Gates with all his work through the foundation has reached or exceeded that level. He will be always remembered for his work and passion to bring the benefits to the poor and needy.

Thank you Mr. Gates for all your past and future work on this planet.

I guess that should make me optimistic as well. Nice part on politicians being unable to come up with smart decisions.

SharkswithfrikingLazers  07/08/2012 03:39 AM Report

Charlie, you might have asked Bill to compare those who have won a Nobel Peace Prize to what he is doing now.

Mother Teresa (1979) and Doctors without Borders (1999) come to mind. His year would be 2019.

We heard that Bing and FaceBook share information to compete against Google.

Charlie, didn't Larry Page tell us that this is a bad thing.

A question here might have focused on a problem area.

SharkswithfrikingLazers  07/08/2012 03:26 AM Report

Yes, he worries most for his children about global decisions being made.

To that point I might focus on the weather which is something else!

Last year we broke the all time record with $52 BILLION in weather damages.

The next highest year was $9 BILLION in damages.

WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE WEATHER?

I read only a few years ago some 1,500 farmers in India commited mass suicide because they could not pay thier pennies in rent for thier patch of farm. Lack of yield of crop is a first problem. With invention the inventor is scared of getting ripped off.We invented something that is large enough that if someone stole it, we would at least see it from a satelite.So I have no fear of a finacier ripping us off. Here is India's answer. In "1900" North America we needed Factories but were short of land so we made them multi stories,we needed housing but were short of land so we made them multi stories,we needed office space but were short of land so we made them multi stories, so if India's priority is food and are short of land they need multi stories of greenhouses.Bill Gate's venture partner knows what I am talking about and he's from India. I have to admit I write terrible business plans and have been turned down by at least 6 girls around the world aged no more than 30. I don't expect hard working young girls to know what it is that we invented we have done a poor job on educating them on multiple land massing,the historical answer to a crowded community.

Charlie, I was looking around Rockefeller University after hearing Bill talk about mosquitoes and smell research and found this:

Fruit fly larva resembles a binge eater because it feeds continuously for nearly 72 hrs, eating 3-5 times its own weight in food. About 24 hrs before puparation, the larva abruptly leaves the food medium and stops eating. This highly stereotyped behavior provides an attractive experimental model to explore the neuronal mechanisms that drive and sustain continuous (compulsive) feeding.

Sounds like great research that may help in our obesity epidemic. So mosquito smell research to help stop the spread of disease and fruit fly larva research to help stop our obesity epidemic.

Charlie...Your question when asking Bill Gates how he felt about being beat by Apple shows a lack of understanding. The progress of the collective computer, software, and internet industries has been driven by a mariad of successes and successful entreprenuers. In most cases you appear balanced in the way you handle your interviews. But in this case...it is clear you have partaken of the "Steve Jobs for God" campaign kool-aid. Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Mark Zukerberg, the Google team....the list goes on....have all accomplised huge things in their own right by applying their unique perspective to an "industry" that is on a warp speed fast track. And each have benefited from those that came before them, partnered with them, or strove beside them. To state a question that implied that it is an either-or, you-win-O-lose issue betrays a slanted view. Not like you. Your infatuation with Jobs stunted your usually spot-on skills in this case...in my opinion. In some cases... if you choose to judge it as a completion... Gates bested Jobs and Jobs bested Gates. But I propose they each used the others successed to map the next step.

Bing vs Google:

All righty then, open up both Bing and Google in separate windows of your browser.

Now type "Best Charlie Rose" in both and compare the search results.

For me it is Google all the way.

SharkswithfrikingLazers  07/04/2012 01:24 AM Report

Bill tells us he took Microsoft public in 1986 and the stock went up for 14 years.

It fell off the cliff after Y2K and you can look at the chart:

So if you bought Microsoft in January of 2000 and held, then you have a company that really, really sucks.

So Charlie, should you hold Microsoft so high in your quiver of questions?

SharkswithfrikingLazers  07/04/2012 01:09 AM Report

Bill Gates is correct. America is number one in charitable giving up from fifth in 2010.

Hats off to my fellow Americans.

In spite of economic hardships and uncertainty in the future, the American spirit is caring and strong, as these survey findings clearly show.

China, Russia and India are among those near the bottom of the list. These countries benefit enormously from US philanthropy.

Thank you Bill.

We were told that India has 20% of the world's population.

Charlie, with only 2.4% of the world's land mass the Ganesha in the room is birth control.

So Bill, what is the best way to get India's population under control? (We all know what China did.)

"Bill is basically unimaginative and has never invented anything, which is why I think he's more comfortable now in philanthropy than technology," Jobs told author Walter Isaacson. "He just shamelessly ripped off other people's ideas."

"He'd be a broader guy if he had dropped acid once or gone off to an ashram when he was younger," Jobs added.

There is the answer to your question Charlie.

Anytime for you buddy.

As a matter of principle, it is always more efficient to allow ppl to make their own judgments about what they need, and do their own work, just as Mr Gates, himself, did, than to have someone else, no matter how brilliant or innovative, do it for them (as in fact he advocates for education). There's only so much you can teach. And certainly too much technology ends up being used as shelving, step stools, shovels or whatever. Vaccines might be less necessary if normal environmental sanitation were not being screwed up by Western fortune hunters. This is why I feel Carnegie and the rest represent a net loss. Unfortunately, however, technology seems to follow poverty, so if you want the former, you need to have the latter. I often wonder if in our attempt to beat evolution we aren't on the way to becoming ants. The beauty of natural selection is that such things generally don't get very far out-of-balance. In the same vein. altho we can physically do both more efficiently, so far no one has otherwise improved much on talking and writing - devices operating directly by thought or eye movements excepted - indeed, it seems we are getting worse at them.

Agree with Malcolm Gladwell's comment about the legacies of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs — it's already evident, forget 100 years; make that 10 years. As for math, yeah, would love to have had all these great Internet tools. Being a math grunt in a family with several "mathies" (who were taught by Malcolm Gladwell's Dad at Waterloo) can be a bit of a disincentive. Those who find the maths intuitively obvious and elegant are typically poor tutors: they just can't see what you don't get.

Thank you for sharing.

The human soul may be more than just a complex computer. It may have 12 control systems instead of binary codes.

Wondering… if Mr. Gates may help us to find out the existence of our consciousness beyond human physical body.

============================================================

The universe in its origin does not have any separation. All things are united as one.

Our next future is likely to be in the level of sharing through our souls, sharing the thoughts without privacy, sharing the pains without shame, sharing visions without limitation and sharing the joys without reservation.

Chakras are information and energy exchange centers with other Galaxies in different time lines.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chakra

This 3-dimensional physical world does not exist in reality. We use this physical world to gain information into our souls. The soul works more than just a complex computer, having the capabilities of saving information, generating behaviors/thoughts/senses, having the will to survive, giving birth and etc…

The Sun, the gravitational force and our senses make this physical world to be so real to us, therefore we have never noticed that we are all enslaved ourselves for our limitation.

===============================================================

Here are 12 dimensions in the universe:3 physical dimensions, 3 non-physical dimensions, time, universe expansion, possibility, parallel dimension, merging/separation and duplication.

The highest physical l being in our universe is a nine dimensional intelligent being. After that, we can only see non-physical spiritual beings.

The 48 dimensional intelligent beings are purely high vibrating frequency of “female” energy filled with information; they have no form, no face and no gender as we defined, but they can transform themselves into anything and go into any physical bodies. They created us and our universe.

==============================================================

New understanding of eight senses or eight consciousnesses:

5 senses: sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell by eye, ear, tongue, skin and nose.

6 sense: intuition and compassion by the invisible soul inside our body

7 sense: invisible and immortal “data cable” transferring information between 6 sense and 8 sense during sleeping.

8 sense: our united non-separable soul kept together within mother earth. Invisible and immortal.

===============================================================

When we look into the sky, we are all humble by the creation.

There are total 48 dimensions in our universe. 36 dimensions are inaccessible to us. Our souls can access 12 dimensions (12 strand soul DNA) while this material world with plant earth limits us to only 3 dimensions with Double Helix DNA.

Knowledge is limitless, so does intelligent being.

Our soul has no difference; we are united as one. Our differences in body, senses, sex, intelligence, power and wealth, is only the trap in the darkness which prevent us to unite our other half soul into the lightness.

LIGHTNESS INTO THE SPACE AS SPACE- BEING. IT IS OUR FUTURE.

On balance, Gates, Buffet and Rose are doing better others. Is the "market" as good as words and money can invent? Is "government" as bad it can appear on close examination? This show ought to have promoted cost over profit accounting and hydrogen systems over carbon contamination of fuel. But this complete conversation did reach further than most. It touched on science and problems in a way that invites a series more appropriate to our audience than any previous focused series. Call it Current Solutions on Hold -- and spare no delay or expense in attaching it to this beginning.

Will the Gates Foundation make a difference if its scope avoids focus on reform of law and economics? Law defines money and the power of business operations. Economics is a predictive science with a record worse than all others: it is a branch of politics -- but thinks it's a separate tree. The Gates Foundation may someday tackle the soil in which it is nourished.and their That soil includes money and Information Technology. Its founder Bill and supporter Warren and friend Charlie all wish us (its targets) well. But are they doing what they should? Do we need better medicine as badly as we need better diplomacy? What is our responsibility as audience and customers? What is their responsibility as teachers and very rich neighbors?

Gelles  07/03/2012 01:07 PM Report

The Gates Foundation invests seed money to improve world-wide-- health; education, wisdom, training and skill; and scientific approaches to problems we must solve for civilization to survive the threats of war, disease, want and survivable natural disaster. The Foundation is small compared to nations that govern immense land and populations. But it is large compared to similar philanthropic forces.
