Isn't it the development philosophy itself that's evolving (i.e., not Gruber's opinion)? E.g., the linked post is about a change that isn't even been released y

  I dunno, Gruber really ought to know better by now. I left MacOS myself years ago because I considered the depreciation of OpenGL to be the writing on the wall. Apple was beefing with companies like Nvidia for nothing other than the sake of petty conflict, and sabotaging public resources for profit and making everyone else suffer for it. As a user I was getting absolutely nothing out of their aggressive public profile and it made me ashamed to support a company that cared so little for their userbase. So I bought different computers. Gruber has been in this longer than I have, and clearly he can see the same stuff you and I can. If he was okay with Apple going guns-akimbo 10 years ago I don't see why he'd grow a conscience all of the sudden. Seems to me that the frogs notice the water boiling, now.

    >Seems to me that the frogs notice the water boiling, now. I think this is spot on. When even Gruber complains openly you know it's bad. See also DHH lately. Warren Buffet recently sold half his AAPL holdings. When he got them he mentioned the brand strength as the main reason. Maybe he too noticed the heat of the water?
