This article is from 14 years ago.

You're going to have to provide more context on why you feel it's still relevant today.

I mean, I hate Microsoft too but a decade and a half is a bit ago, why is this relevant now?

In summary: Bill Gates studied the code of other great programmers in order to increase his skill level, therefore he's not a a good programmer and his company is terrible. Also every version of Windows built on the previous versions and weren't written from scratch, so they're terrible.

Another gatekeeping, "no real programmer" argument from a website that isn't even online anymore.

Maybe he's just posting it as a historical curiosity.
