The argument is the same as before. Apple and Google are using monopoly control of mobile app stores to stifle competition. Existing anti-trust rules are enough to sue and get ruling to break up Apple and Google control of app stores. Mor

I recommend looking into history. Apple was failing as computer company. Apple only survived because Microsoft threw them a lifeline, licensing Office suite in Macs and investing in Apple. Microsoft wanted to show anti-trust regulators tha

There are other hobbies that may be more interesting and fun. I've never considered computers to be fun. As you mentioned, they are tools to solve some problems. Some are interesting and challenging, most are tedious and grinding. Com

This is the right move. All FAANG companies will have to fall in line quick. All the nonsense about location based COL salary adjustments are based on pure HR fantasy. High performance engineers are valuable and rare. All this talk about m

My guess is MS had plans for web dominance. Use Windows to push IE and VBScript and become gatekeeper to the web. Tightly couple Windows and web and have Windows become the web platform. Until, US anti-trust investigation and law suit agai
