Does Stanford pair this class with their training on passing FAANG interviews?
Do angel investors show up to class demo day?
Does the Stanford gift shop sell knee pads branded with the school logo?
In the university environment, how about have classes use open standards and open source, and save the commercial compromise for post-graduation.
Otherwise, how will graduates even know when they're whoring, if they have no basis for comparison.
They won't have a basis for comparison, and they'll do something crazy, like turn a simple information retrieval function into normalizing intimate surveillance and attention capture of everyone, while congratulating themselves on being the good guys.
I think it’s only the 193 series of classes that are industry-related electives. Swift is open source too.
People have such strong delusions about universities (and they're so vocal about them too).
When I was in school, the corporate shill language was MATLAB, and even today not every program has moved on to greener pastures (Python/numpy, Julia). But doesn't Swiftui support Android now? https://github.com/skiptools/skip, I'm extremely skeptical and critical of anything Apple does, and I don't like programming languages without critical mass of community and corporate contributers, but seems like Swift is going in the right direction here.
