I use their API for several models, both for personal and professional use. I think their approach (smaller, specialised models that are well-adapted for specific tasks) is a very good fit for how I work. And even the…
Yeah, the Arch wiki is the Gentoo wiki we lost. I was around for it and the Gentoo wiki was amazing, it was one of the best Linux resources all-around, it was tremendously useful even if you didn't use Gentoo.

Having accidentally argued against his own point with inadequate metaphors time and time again, OP returns to namecalling!
The root of yours is that you keep trying to make this about McDonalds, Amazon, Ebay, Costco or some other contraption instead of the App Store, which is what this is actually is about. Not that the argument matters,…
It's not my comparison. It's yours, and just as meaningless as your previous one about McDonald's. This one's no better, either, as Costco's terms for its wholesale suppliers aren't anywhere close to Apple's, even…
> Do you expect Amazon marketplace sellers to be able to link to their items being on ebay or shopify from the actual Amazon website? From the Amazon website? No. From the products they're selling? Yes, absolutely, and…
No, they did the equivalent of saying to Coca-Cola if you discover a customer via the App Store then you cannot tell them they can buy Coca-Cola from outside the App Store, too, a decidedly anti-competitive practice…
Except this has nothing to do with some monopoly on the smartphone market, but with Apple not allowing application developers to enable their users to vote with their wallets on payment methods. From the press release:…

Sure thing! News agencies could really do a better job when reporting on historical issues. This is no exception. What they're saying is plausible but it's not the sort of thing you'd expect a news outlet to casually…

This isn't about expecting "people" to communicate to you in a language they don't speak, it's about expecting state institutions to communicate in their citizens' language. French public institutions definitely use…
First off, if you take your extreme example and go to France, you'll be surprised ;-). In fact, taking your extreme surprise even further, you'll find things in Southern France translated into languages you've never…
