> with no recourse Why does the IDE eat your files? If an editor shuts down, open up another one and continue. What's with the melodrama?

> They are clearly trying as hard as possible to show the "best" numbers. This isnt a hottake at all. Marketing (iPhone keynotes, product launches) are about showing impressive numbers. It isnt a gotcha you think it is.

> The Android Open Source Project is not Android. Was "Android" the way you define it ever open? Isnt it similar to chromium vs chrome? chromium is the core, and chrome is the product built on top of it - which is what allows C

Why stop at YouTube? Blame Apple for creating an additive gadget that has single handedly wasted billions of hours of collective human intelligence. Life was so much better before iPhones. But I hear you say - you can use iPhones for produc

This is an understandable, but simplistic way of looking at the world. Are you also gonna blame Apple for mining for rare earths, because they made a successful product that requires exotic materials which needs to be mined from earth? How

Companies cant get away from egregious marketing. See Apple class action lawsuit for Apple Intelligence.

Last I checked, Android is still open source (as AOSP) and people can do whatever-the-f-they-want with the source code. Are we defining open differently?

This is revisionist history. Apple wanted to fully jump in. They even rebranded AI as Apple Intelligence and announced a hoard of features which turned out to be vaporware.

I have a theory, and it is somewhat controversial but as much as I try to refute it internally I can't seem to come up with better arguments. I'm sharing it here hoping to get a convincing counter argument. The privacy emphasis we

People buy Tesla for Tesla and not because CarPlay. But CarPlay is a purchasing decision factor for other brands, which means a power imbalance exists. So this is a classic game theory situation. You want all participants (Toyota, Honda, Fo

One should not forget that Mr Cook was handpicked by Jobs himself. So if Apple is lacking taste or leadership, it is partly Jobs' own making

Tesla's news is interesting. A good question to ask in this who's in control in Tesla x CarPlay relationship. The answer is obviously former (Apple can't dictate anything and Tesla gets to boss around). That's very diffe

I get what you're saying, but if you think of it what we're doing today - handing over the one and only official piece of document to a) cop b) club bouncer etc. They can hold onto it, and never return it. They can deface it. All

Again, not wrong to block ads. But they can make it very difficult to have you and I access to videos if we're running adblocker. We're right, and they're right as well.

The right analogy would be a newspaper delivering you the paper in ~milliseconds when you ask for it, whereever in the world, for free, and then you proceed to rip off the ads and read it. The reason newspaper do the delivery was the promis

This has been true for MS for a really long time. What's more fascinating is how Apple seems to be on that trajectory for the past few years. Botched roll out of Apple Maps to the latest iOS/Mac OS 26 bugs. Not to mention the ass-
