Apple really is a one hit wonder. Outside of computing devices, phone, tablets, laptops, (let's throw in desktops & watches) They really haven't been able to build and innovate much since Jobs. I was short on the idea when they announced a self-driving car. Without a major change and internal culture shock, they are going to stay on this course, hit peak cash extraction until they start mortgaging cash quickly. The only thing that has been pretty interesting has been AR. Innovation dilemma is strong.
- BoorishBears 9y agoI can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not
- D-Coder 9y agoI'm reading it as, "What have the Romans ever done for us? Apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health."
- Nuance 9y agoYou called them a one hit wonder and then implied that they've had hits in all their product categories, fascinating.
- damon_c 9y agoWhat about the aqueducts?
- askafriend 9y agoThis is either very cleverly veiled sarcasm or straight up obliviousness with a side of trolling. Hard to tell which, well done!
- gruturo 9y agoI literally don't know whether to upvote or downvote you. The first sentence is beautifully sarcastic, but the rest makes me think it wasn't sarcasm at all. Apart from this, I sort of agree with your view of not having been able to innovate much since SJ, but this is actually evidence of the opposite: not much new has been coming out of Apple, but clearly stuff is happening inside, which sometimes doesn't turn into a product, but their R&D appears to be alive and well.
