Now there is Proton by Valve. it's a wrapper for wine and a few other components. Most games just work now. There are of course some exceptions like ring of elysium doing kernel patches for ring zero DRM and Anti-Cheat. But I would say

Sure. You are correct that Switch and Apple really only have data centers in the area. They employ very few skilled workers. The Gigafactory does employ a number of skilled engineers. If you are looking for SV & SF pay, you aren't

Here is the deal with that though. Spectrum is finite. There is only so much to go around. There absolutely needs to be regulation, as it cannot be a free for all. Just look at wifi in large hotels or apparment/office complex to see wh

It seems like all of these changes are related to being able to use git inside of atom, but I use the terminal for that and have zero desire to use clunky GUI. The last few release haven't addressed any of the issues or really progress
