Can someone explain me the deal with Android and its version numbers?

Back in the days we had Eclair, Froyo and Gingerbread for 2.x.x updates, and ICS, Jelly Bean and Kitkat for 4.x.x updates. Now, ever since Lollipop, we are jumping from 5 to 6 to 7 to 8, even though Marshmallow, Nougat and Oreo could've easily fit as 5.x.x

What is the retarded logic behind this? I don't want to see Android with retarded inflated numbers like Chrome and Firefox which are around their version 50 or so.

Was about to post this. It's a shame that floating point numbers are so ubiquitous that few people are willing to consider alternatives, but if not for the fact that the regime and mantissa fields have variable size (and thus decoding of the fields is not paralellizable if you don't employ some sort of trickery), posits really do seem to be superior to IEEE 754 in all aspects.
It's a shame too, because GPUs tend to use very narrow floating point numbers to do calculations, and posits seem to excel at this too, so a posit-based GPU would be considerably more efficient.

I imagine if you enable and configure your firewall, and keep up with your software updates, it should be as secure as any other OS. Most distro don't have it enabled by default for whatever reason. Fedora being the exception.

What kind of feedback do you expect other than that and your abuse of namespaces?

Raylib is good to get something on screen, but it's shit for anything past the very first "me draw cube" phase. Stick to it and ignore criticism if you want, you're the one shooting yourself in the foot.

Because they have a stranglehold on supply and an infinite amount of demand.
First sell to the highest bidders then produce more after they have already fought over the crumbs. Don't work harder than you absolutely have to for somebody that uses you like a piece of toilet paper then discards you the moment something better comes along.

Data centers are competing in a different race than the consumer so inevitably the paths will diverge and companies that sold to them will either need to consider selling to the consumer market again or follow the path of developing products for a company that hates them.
