Even if taking raising market prices into account, your estimate for the RAM module price is waaaaaaay off. You can get 8GB of good quality DDR5 DIMMs for 40$, there is no way in hell that Apple is paying anywhere near that. Going from 8 to

Just to be pedantic about it, the app is just called health or Apple Health. HealthKit is the SDK that allows other developers to interface with the Apple Health App. But yeah, it’s available in Apple health, which may be a reason why this

So by extension, there is basically no innovation currently going on right now? New CPUs arent innovative. x86 is still the same and the rest is just better production technology. New production processes aren't innovative either. EUV

Why is it not innovative? It is a new way of government and citizen interaction, which sounds like it is well worth the attempt. Since it didn’t catch on, the citizens voted, but offering a new communication channel for citizens doesn’t sou
