Google is an open-source software development platform. It is powered by open-source software, which means Google may eventually provide free and non-commercial components and services to the enterprise, but it will mostly rely on its proprietary hardware.
Why Google Should Invest In Open Source Hardware
Google is a major player in the open-source computing world (see here and here ), and is responsible for creating more and more interesting hardware to watch out for. With Huawei's open-source OS X, it is possible for customers to make and test hardware that runs on Windows, but with Huawei's Linux-OS X ecosystem on its hands, it can be tricky to find a way around the hardware gap.
As for the real advantages Android offers, the company admits it can improve upon the hardware offered on Android. In one sense, a better hardware platform (like Android's own smartphone-based operating system) means better hardware because it allows for more flexibility and improved performance, but the hardware will suffer depending on where you're going.
It also means that Android has the potential to offer better features for organizations, making it less of a competitive market, and less accessible for consumers than iOS.
With Huawei's open-source OS X, a "better" experience is a positive, though it won't always be an ideal one, as its open-source kernel software could prove unresponsive to more serious applications, causing any hardware problems to spread quickly to other devices, leaving them looking like crap. With Android, however, Android is still so important that a new, open-source operating system will be developed to serve the needs of organizations and consumers, not a new operating system developed purely for Android. A new OS will require a lot of "fixes" to be fully operational in order to provide a better experience, though the operating system makers will likely put extra pressure on the OS (particularly the new operating system versions).
One of the big advantages an Android OS will offer is that it's "cleaner", making its software easier to read and run. This means that more open-source apps won't require a significant amount of hard-working code, which can be taken for extra tests, or which will be more accessible and can make a system run better.
On the bright side, the good news is that Android has a significant community , despite some limitations (i.e. the limited support for open-source distributions such as Linux-OS X). Many people want to use Android for its own development, and Google doesn't know what this is all about yet.
The downside is that many of these apps will be free for a few days or even weeks, so making them available is just icing on the cake, especially with the added risk of having the software being blocked by third-party software vendors.
Google will still have to work hard to create any new software that will replace the existing ones (which will be much better, but at the cost of an effort dedicated to development). Unfortunately for Google, due to the lack of community there are a number of projects that need to stay on the Google Project, which will ultimately have to work.
In short, Google believes that developers who like Android should continue their efforts in many areas of software. In order to continue building useful products and services for Android users, it is necessary for them to keep developing new hardware, not just one software package.
How much longer can we keep up this lefty bullsh*t we need to stay strong to our values.
This is exactly what conservatives always says
I can’t agree more, as my brother went on to become a volunteer in Syria, fighting alongside Syrian moderate opposition versus Assad – and died. All because US did not stop Assad in 2011-2012.
