Ah man, one of those right-libertarian/anarcho-capitalist types. Don't worry, most of these people change their belief system once they take an elementary economics class. I know I did :)

Will be a huge pain in the ass. Go's compiler uses Plan 9, and WebAssembly uses LLVM.

Actually no. It's only referred to that because people are stupid. It contains neither an actual disk nor a drive motor to spin a disk.

HDD = HARD DISK drive

SSD = SOLID STATE drive

No. It's only referred to that because people are stupid. It contains neither an actual disk nor a drive motor to spin a disk.

If SSD = Solid state disk, then HDD = Hard disk disk.

Or nobody will ever have to work again.

2) It's probably not a disk. I'd bet it's an SSD, or something. I doubt he'd use an HDD considering how relatively cheap it is now... and considering how loaded he probably is.

Oh, whoops! I mistyped. Didn't mean to mention LLVM.

That ARM64 stuff is pretty messed up though.

Oh, that's news to me. I guess that makes their claim a bit weaker.

Darwin, LLVM, Clang.

Also: WebKit, Objective-C. (debatable since the GPL forced their hand)

Probably to differentiate themselves from pure software companies like Mozilla, in which case that claim would almost certainly be false.

> Apple, the first major computer company to make Open Source development a key part of its software strategy

It's actually pretty factual. They open sourced Darwin/WebKit/LLVM/Clang, and legitimized BSD and Unix as a consumer product via OS X... in 2001/2005/2005. The only "big" company that I can think of that made a move that big was Mozilla, which arguably doesn't even compare to a company as huge as Apple. Plus Mozilla open sourced itself out of pure desparation from pressure via Internet Explorer (which, I might remind you, was one of the worst proprietary pieces of shit to scorch this earth, by none other than Microsoft).

It's only been a recent thing where companies like Google/Microsoft have been embracing open source. Companies like Gitlab/Docker weren't even concievable back then.

Actions speak louder than words.
