Their new A8-powered speaker ain't gonna change anything. In 10 years from now, this is how WWDC will look like:
- a new born, 6 months old who published an app
- "better, bigger, stronger than never before"
- iOS 45, we just introduced drag & drop lol
- a brand new app called "files"! You can now manage files! It's amazing!
- iPad Pro++ with a screen 2 times bigger than the Pro+ from last year
- iWatch, we added nothing because the screen is so damn small... who cares??
- We doubled our macbook memory capacity from 128 to 256!
- Now at $1299 instead of $1499
Looking at companies like Tesla, IBM, Nvidia, etc. What a boring event... Nothing but consumable crap.
- AdamJacobMuller 9y agoApple Keynote's used to be HUGE events. I wouldn't be shocked if a huge percentage of the global tech audience, apple fans or not, paused to watch. My interest was waning for years, I didn't even realize until today around 6PM EST (way after the event was over) that there was a Keynote. Nobody though to text me asking about it, nothing happened in the keynote that anyone text-ed me about during it, nobody even mentioned it on our slack channel (which in years past, was a play-by-play of keynotes). The magic, really, is gone. I'm quite sure Apple is going to stick around long-term, and they'll still be highly successful if not the most successful company, period, but, the unquantifiable magic is gone and I doubt it will return.
