> Wildly unprecedented execution
It takes me back to when I was younger and every well polished presentation, jazzed me up like it does, this author.
I remember buying first gen. 27" iMac and marvelling at the resolution - I couldn't see the individual pixels!
Now I'm old and grumpy and not a single announcement from Apple or any other tech company for that matter, has made me giddy in years. Many announcements and ongoing blunders, have jaded my soul, bit by bit :)
I imagine some innovation, not iteration, is around the corner, because it just can't be that this is all we've managed to accomplish with all the opportunity that we've been given.

- toohotatopic 6y ago>TheSpiceIsLife Does it? Don't you hone your perception and you are able to taste subtle differences instead of getting a kick from its novelty?
- TheSpiceIsLife 6y agoAh, yes. It depends what you’re trying to see, right? Eventually your senses will be saturated by the mundane, physical realm. True happiness lies in contentedness. To be content is to have enough; to be full. Only when we realise we are full—when we see we were born full—are we ready, willing, and able, to give. Only through giving can we become full. To give is to be content.

- TheSpiceIsLife 6y agoLike I keep saying: I hope when I’m on my deathbed I remember to say something like: I wish I’d spent more time being frustrated at on-screen keyboards; Or: Most of my best writing went unnoticed. ;)
