That’s funny! There certainly also are people whose real name’s Cicero, Einstein, and why not, after all…

Re “Google et al have to been sliced up”, very amusing, too: https://successfulsoftware.net/2020/09/17/microsoft-ppc-broad-match-goes-nuts/ and https://successfulsoftware.net/2020/08/21/google-ads-can-charge-you-anything-they-like-for-a-click-on-their-partner-network/ - they obviously do whatever they want now, and if the subject above was rather Apple than Google, bear in mind that with the run into the cloud, especially Google’s “business philosophy” will become more and more “important” for the masses and for corporate users as well, so reading about what they do, even on adjacent fields, seems quite relevant to me.

And it’s people who, within 5 words or so, think they can invalidate real info, just because the messenger doesn’t please them, who, at the end of the day are responsible that most developers out there have left Giving Lane: it’s simply not worth it, to make “presents” to people. (And, please, don’t bring up Linux - it’s WAR over there!)
