No it’s not, because none of that is unique to an open source project. Anyone can come in and use those assets. Heck, that’s the whole point of open source. The only thing that is unique to an open source project is its reputation, and the

The claim that Markdown will never go beyond developers is kind of ironic considering markdown was co-invented by John Gruber, a non-developer. There’s a lot of issues with this post, which basically completely misunderstands what markdown

Apple only just started making chips when they became a company earning $200+Bn revenues. They’ve been complaining about their chip makers since 1999 at least. The example is ironic. Apple’s behavior isn’t. They conveyed the truth. Just lik
