It wasn't a swipe. I pointed out that haven't been paying attention to probe launches. Nothing offensive about that. I also wasn't paying attention for years. So what?

MS has $3.5 Trillion market cap. Same as Apple.
Azure is catching up with AWS and could take the lead.
Nothing like IBM 20 years ago.
Windows is a small fraction of their business. Azure is bigger than the Windows, Office, and Xbox/Gaming divisions combined.
Personally I have found a moderate size lunch and larger dinner, with a snack or two before or after dinner, is just perfect. Most people don't need three full meals a day. With moderate carbs I never go into a food coma. Worst is eating a large breakfast which makes you feel tired just when you are starting the day and trying to be productive.
If you have trained your body to burn fat (moderate or low carb diet) then you will be running on fat reserves efficiently through the day until the first meal.
In the Chinese cases I mentioned, the executives did not personally kill people. They only committed fraud, which put millions at risk of death when using their inferior products, which is comparable to what Boeing did.
The executives intentionally and knowingly committed fraud, which put anyone at risk when they fly in a 737 Max (millions of people per year). It was not the engineers fault. The engineers and quality inspectors concerns were ignored by management. The executives prioritized stock price over safety. I am not exaggerating when I say the executives committed fraud. That is the view of federal prosecutors.
In total 346 people died, and there would have been more deaths if the entire global fleet were not grounded for several years by international regulators. It's not just the Max. Anyone who flies in any Boeing aircraft is at risk if the company is committing fraud at this scale.
The first paper says:
"Unlike lunch and dinner, which are recommended early in the day, it has been proved that to have breakfast too early may be deleterious due to melatonin levels, which may still be high in the early morning."
The second paper references a 12 week randomized controlled trial that shows that it is good to skip breakfast, eating within a time restricted window (12:00 - 20:00).
Personally I usually aim for a TRE of 12:00 - 17:00 and that has worked well for me over the past 15 years. Skip breakfast, early dinner, as recommended by those papers. I feel lethargic and tired if I eat breakfast. Listen to your body.

"On 22 January 2009, Tian was sentenced to life imprisonment, while other Sanlu executives received sentences of five to fifteen years. Two other men were sentenced to death"
Changsheng Biotech Vaccine Scandal (2018): The chairwoman of Changsheng Biotech, Gao Junfang, was sentenced to 12 years in prison.
Kanghui Pharmaceutical Case (2007): The general manager, Ni Chunlin, was sentenced to life imprisonment.
Qiqihar No. 2 Pharmaceutical Case (2006): The factory director received a 7-year prison sentence.
Shanghai Hualian Pharmaceutical Case (2007): Two executives were sentenced to death (later commuted to life imprisonment).
Fifteen year olds are still growing, in the anabolic phase, so they should eat more often if they have the appetite. Forget it when you are a fully grown adult.
Based on what scientific evidence? Some do better without breakfast.
OpenAI runs on Microsoft servers.
Apple partnered with OpenAI to use their service which runs on Microsoft servers.
Basic facts.
Water Fast means only drinking water. Standard terminology. You can verify that with a quick Google search.
1 - 2 month survival estimate is for an ordinary person. If you're obese then you can survive up to a year without food.
For an ordinary person in reasonably good health, a 24 hour water fast only provides health benefits. Up to 3 days of water fasting is beneficial. I wouldn't recommend any longer than that.
The more frequently you fast, the easier it gets. Your body adapts to burning stored fat as fuel and the hormonal hunger triggers become less severe. I've reached the stage where 24 hours is easy.
EDIT: I'm getting rate limited so cannot reply to the comment below.
Water fast means only drinking water. Tea or coffee is acceptable if black (meaning without milk or sugar).
"Water fasting is a type of fast during which you're not allowed to consume anything except water."
I would never do a fast that cuts out water/liquids. That is stupid.

You are still missing the point and I think you have a persistent mental block. You are overthinking it. It's not that complicated.
The article says that Apple is partnering with OpenAI. It also says that OpenAI runs on Azure infrastructure.
Whatever they negotiate, the deal is intended to be a win-win for both sides in the long run. Obviously both sides are interested in making money. The article mentions future revenue sharing agreements and getting more users to subscribe to the paid ChatGPT.
Any increase of OpenAI/ChatGPT usage means an increased usage of (and dependency on) Microsoft/Azure infrastructure. I don't understand how this is so complicated to understand. OpenAI runs on Azure and more OpenAI usage/dependency means more Azure usage/dependency. Microsoft increases their cut of the AI market share as more Apple users use Microsoft infrastructure and of course they will make profit from that. None of these guys are doing it for charity.
Apple's services do not run on Azure. Apple's services run on Apple infrastructure.
OpenAI services run on Azure
Apple is a new partner of OpenAI. Apple will use OpenAI services which run on Azure. Hopefully that makes sense. It is not that complicated.
