Apple needs some internal competition, iOS and macOS should never have been merged into one team. macOS needs a leader that doesn't believe desktop computing got superseded by mobile.
- dman 9y agoI whole heartedly agree. I would like at least one desktop platform vendor to not start with the defeatist mindset that Web / Mobile won. Desktop is where I do most of my productive work, the basic way I do my work (programming / research) has not improved in a long time. There is tremendous room for innovation on the desktop.

- makecheck 9y agoSomewhat yes but there is also a risk of too much divergence (e.g. the similarities in frameworks are what make development great in some respects). I would structure it so that the internal cross-platform app groups have a lot of “pull”, ensuring that both OS teams continue to communicate and keep the APIs similar.
