If by wealthy having 90th percentile investments 10 years before normal retirement age then these plans are well equipped to make you wealthy. Get rich slow totally works.
What's the point of even building a website if Google is just going to scrape the information and put in a SERP? You need to add value and build a relationship with your customer.
It's important to distinguish market cap based indexes and other asset class indexes. Small and micro-caps are notoriously hard to trade but mega-caps typically have much higher liquidity. There is a much higher chance of a micro-cap passive fund having a liquidity problem then a market cap index fund.

Google is valued highly today because they print money today. They print money because of search and advertising. They are really good at this and that's why their market cap exceed's Apple's today.
...
That would be correct if they were value companies throwing off discounted cash flow but both Google and Apple are priced as growth companies. The market believes Apple has peaked in growth and that Google has a bit more potential. It's not clear why exactly from the earnings report of the holding company. Revenue for Google is 99% ad sales so it's not clear exactly where that bottom line revenue is going to come from. All revenue from the rest of the holding company was less then $500 million.
Both companies will struggle for the kind of revenue growth Wall Street is looking for. Ad sales account for 99% of Google revenue, with speculative ventures generating less then $500 million. It's all about finding products and services that people are willing to part with cash.
There are pressures from both the earn and the spend side, but the surest path to misery is living above your means. Dickens had it pretty much nailed with, "Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen pounds nineteen and six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds nought and six, result misery."
The More Cocoa Programming for OS X: book has been in O'Reilly Rough Cuts beta for several years and the tech is pretty old at this point. Not sure if it ever will see the light of day.

... Chronic lack of exercise causes people to sleep 9+ hours per day. Put those same people on regular aerobic exercise regimes, and they start sleeping <8 hours.
Peak performance exercise can demand 9+ hours of sleep. I'd be reluctant to categorize sleep needs based on exercise regime.
Who said anything about completely eliminating OpenGL ES? SceneKit writes to OpenGL, OpenGL views are pervasive, WebGL is turned on in Safari, CALayers are OpenGL backed. Metal just lets you tweak the render pipeline.
Provocative title, but probably overstated. SceneKit uses OpenGL directly with shaders and deferred rendering. Metal seems likely to become more mainstream as engine developers adopt the tech, but there are going to be lots of developers who are overwhelmed with writing glsl shaders, let alone significantly altering the render pipeline.
Not sure what ...help you keep a level proprietorship with your llc or whatever company you have producing the app...
means, but from the read me for brushes from the same developer...
One of my motivations for releasing the source code for Brushes was to make it a community project.
I think it's likely that a particular community, language, tooling combination is likely to resonate with a particular person. Although reading a few well reasoned articles might give you a hunch of which one to choose, it's likely, barring external forces like occupation or marketplace requirements that you'll know until you plunge in and try it for yourself. I appreciate the article, seems well written and reasoned, but I wouldn't want to read too many more like it before I just dove in and found out for myself where I felt most happy, efficient and expressive.
The people in the article find it one of the best jobs available and a path to a middle class lifestyle for their area.
