To be fair, Apple forces you to use their proprietary hardware and software.

This means you must join the Apple ecosystem to compete, even if you strongly disagree with their practices.

Governments are strong. Wow.

I forget the influence until I see things like this.

This is good that you are calling this out.

I've seen non-science in Healthcare, and I've spoke out against it. I don't really understand why people are stubborn when there is data, and the data is solid.

If I could wish anything in software engineering- follow the data.

I worry a company will bait and switch with me. I have seen products get discontinued.

But yes, this is outsourcing a problem for a cost.

This is USD?

I know it seems like a doomsday scenerio, but if the US goes through a moderate hyperinflation, do these companies die?

Okay, but what happens when it gets below 0% with QE5?

Thats when Bitcoin hits 6 figures, or thats what the libertarian in me has been saying for a decade.

I bought an $800 gaming laptop 6 years ago, formatted everything and installed windows. Handles 100% of my dev work inc emulators and media editing.

If I could recommend something, it would be to look for similar. A SSD + Name Brand Video Card in any laptop will be fine.

Is this an actual risk? you would need to guess a link.

Serious question
