Embrace Permeability for Innovation

Permeability in systems fosters innovation and long-term success. Unlike closed systems that restrict access and control, open systems, like Linux and WordPress, thrive by allowing widespread participation without barriers. The evolution of technology demonstrates that even entities once dominated by closed systems, such as Microsoft, can be challenged by those that embrace openness and creativity. Apple's strategy illustrated that a well-crafted, aesthetically pleasing closed system can succeed but highlights the risk of restrictions on innovation. The combination of diverse contributions, such as the inclusion of artists in tech teams, further emphasizes the value of a more open and inclusive approach to operating systems.
