Blow is a smart guy who thinks he's far smarter and far more interesting than he really is. Smart people who don't seek out feedback, and especially those who haven't worked in a team environment, tend to be pretty bad at estimating the limit of their capabilities.
Does Blow have a mentor? Friends who call his BS out?
You understand that this is miserable and dystopian, right? As humans we shouldn't be leading that kind of "integrated", "personalized" life. We already have too much of that going on with YouTube and Facebook.
That still doesn't solve the issue that to get a blue bubble you must give up control over your mobile life to Apple. Almost nobody carries around two phones.
I don't know, this can be solved with a parental controls equivalent. If Apple really put its heart in it it could solve all of these issues. But it wouldn't benefit Apple to solve them.
It isn't clear to me why either of those should be dogmatically stuck to. They're useful for a certain class of software, and actively harmful to others. For games, which are meant to be an integrated experience, they're mostly non-sequiturs.
> The problem isn't even market share, it's that Linux Desktop doesn't constitute a targetable platform because it is so fragmented and unstable. This is why Steam has to pack in its own runtime libraries just so native Linux games have some kind of known base system.
This is the correct way to deploy most software on Linux. Everything outside of glibc and openssl should be part of a standardized runtime. Look at what flatpak is doing.
There is still a local CSAM database and still a method somewhere that returns a probability that an image is in the database, isn't there? The safety voucher logic is layered on top.
What about security updates or new HTML features? Chrome or Firefox on Android get security updates for many years after official system updates end. The same is not true for Apple.
