For what it's worth, the entry level PowerBook 100 in 1991, when adjusted for inflation, cost about $5500 USD. An entry level iBook in 2003 would cost about $2700 USD. Yeah, it's expensive, but it's also astonishing how much

I didn't say it was an Android killer. I just said that it wasn't vaporware hype - since it's shipped and lots of people have been using it. You made the rest of that up in your own head and then got mad about it.

I'm tired of hearing "Tim Apple's Apple Can't Engineer". VisionOS has some of the most incredible, coolest engineering I've seen in a long time, from top to bottom. Even if you're not interested in AR/

The minority of those issues are for the fuchsia update, despite your lame attempts at searching. The simple fact is that they pulled it off, and many millions more are shipping with it without a problem.

That’s kind of the point though isn’t it? Why not just put this on Paramount+ or gate that through Paramount+? They have tons of content, why not make it available? Because it’s difficult, and they don’t see the value prop, even even though

You should try doing that for the Netflix app. It’ll surely work, because nobody’s ever thought of that hole before!

No epidemiologists were going around saying "eh it could never happen". In fact, many of them were warning after SARS. Trump actually took apart Obama's virus disaster-readiness warehouses and other programs in 2018-2019. Ver

For what it's worth, the last major earthquake here killed 63 people, the significant majority of which were on various freeways and bridges that collapsed. All infrastructure has undergone significant retrofitting since then.

They were always going to try to in-house chip making - it's a huge point of geopolitical risk for them. Sanctions were not self-defeating, if anything, they were effective in their goals and slowed China down.

There's a few things at play here. First, Elon cut a bunch of "non-essential" core Twitter staff, like the trust and safety teams. This is going to cause long term brand damage - in fact, it already is! Second, Elon completel

One of the orgs that Elon cut the hardest was the trust and safety and spam team. He had strong condemnation for their "suppression" of "free speech". Maybe he had a point. Maybe he didn't. But what is clear is that
