    that while the iPhone was great, it
    introduced a platform with a lot of =

    company hasn't invented anything great in a=
    while. He also said that
    Apple's reasons for pushing back on letting oth=

The language has evolved = into a complicated mess - it now has 217 keywords. While Apple is unambiguo= usly the dictator of Swift, its incentives put the company at odds with the=
    open-source community. The company's updates to the language show how much=

    Fears about human labor being replaced =
