Not sure why author got the impression apple’s models had to be « dumb data containers ». Actually, having dumb models is the surest way to completely screw up your controllers design, since you’re now left with no other places to write you

from all the zig features i've seen, comptime seems like the most likely to have the most impact on future PL design. I don't know how powerful it is in practice, but the idea looks so elegant and simple and they seem to have mana

Not really... Germany also makes low quality products. It would be more akin to "this car has a 5 stars EuroNCAP security rating, so it's pretty safe". But it doesn't mean you'll survive any crash.

yes , it makes sense i think. Those necklaces are barely visible and very often are hidden by your shirt. They're hardly comparable to something that covers half your head.

reading this makes wonder what scott forstall is doing now. I hope he's not completely disgusted by what happened to him at apple and will get back to creating tech. We need people with truely innovative ideas from that era.

People also said the same about the apple watch, and from my experience they were right. You use it, then you stop using it after you're bored charging it all the time in addition to all the other devices, for no real benefit. Yes, i k
