Apple will more likely pull out of Europe incrementally (and eventually completely) as the cost of doing business continues to skyrocket. Other American targets of EU regulators will do this as well. Apple isn't a charity, it's

I don't know why you're being downvoted. The political climate, and more broadly the culture of a society, is the crucial component to whether or not technological progress happens. Evidence of this is all around us, even today.

Au contraire: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inosculation I do agree that branches staying separate is the essential property of a tree data structure.

I see your point about it not being a strict tree. It is tree-like, however, in the sense that the branches/edges only point in one direction: forward in time.

I'm also confused by this. I taught myself touch typing in the 90's. I also had a required semester-long class that covered only typing my freshman year of high school (1999). Neither of my parents learned it, but I figured eve
