Why are you trying so hard to not play nice with them? YouTube lets you watch videos for free, provided that you watch these small advertisements every now and then. You are making various complex excuses to not agree with that simple deal.
Clang/LLVM receives finance and contribution (and therefore an element of control) from Apple. Its also BSD licensed. These are not bad things at all, but its great that GCC, which GNU licensed, is an alternative.
Are you joking? You cannot maintain a modern big compiler without strong industry support.
Take a look at GCC Git browser. With a quick blush you can see that a lot of commits are coming from Red Hat, Suse, Oracle, Samsung, ARM, and so on.

Facepalm...that's how ad-based websites work!
YouTube ads are only pictures, so there is no malware risk.
Ah yes, I remember those now. In Finland ad pool those are extremely rare.
:D
Try to look it from the perspective of YouTube too.
"It's our website and we are paying for our bandwidth, hosting expenses, staff and development costs.
So no, you are not running AdBlock on your machine. We are not interested in your freeloading.
End of discussion really."
No moral or ethical problem is present... "won't somebody think of the marketers" LOL.
The content creators get their slice from advertisements as well.
If youtube is not able to sustain itself when faced with a swarm of 'freeloaders' like me, well, it just wasn't meant to... bye bye.
And what gives you the prerogative to be the freeloader? Obviously not everyone can be.
Why?
My youtube ad blocker works perfectly. I never see advertisements while watching youtube.
I'd happily pay for the ad blocker. I won't pay google for the joy of them not spamming me.
Aren't you worried about the ethical choices you are making there?
Except that all YouTube ads can be skipped after 5 seconds.
Obligatory relaxation video.
Why would iOS die? Apple has quite strong brand and a following, so I do not expect iOS disappearing any time soon. Or OS X for that matter...
No disagreement there.
Untrackable to individuals.
Nah. Polysynthesis Filterbank is the way to go.
Proof?
Typically web players do not provide hardware acceleration for any codecs. Usually only the framebuffer is hardware accelerated.
He probably meant that in OEM component market Samsung cannot right now provide a specific 8K panel that can be integrated with the new iMac.
What's so wrong with running a 3d game at a smaller resolution? We used to do this all the time before.
Back then we had CRTs which could adapt to any resolution. With LCDs you have to use linear interpolation which makes the image unsharp.

I thought he was talking about dynamic analysis tools, but if not, then you are correct.
If I examined the source, I wouldn't need the binary analysis tools.
It isn't complicated. Check out Git - The Simple Guide.
North Korea is also "Democratic People's Republic of Korea" (DPRK), while it's the least democratic country in the world.
In that case open source isn't needed either.
