Yep. Information density and compact but efficient UIs were definitely an advantage of macOS. Now they are on track to emulate the big buttons of Windows so what's the point ?

My favorite "bug" was when that dumb thing refused to play because I forgot to stop playing music on my Mac for whatever reason (sometimes the play was actually stopped, it was just unable to resolve state). Spotify has other issu

Apple has stopped caring and producing local/personal software for a while now. Which is absolutely brain dead because that was the primary reason to buy their hardware in the first place. Why spend the premium for a Mac if you are goi

Yes I definitely agree that a lot of the problem is rooted in the type of people (or even just management, who knows ?) that get hired there nowadays. But my thinking is that the language maybe makes things worse ? If you hire people that a

What are you talking about ? RA is relevant for the UK at best, outside of that it seems a bit dead. In France everyone use Shotgun.

As a native French speaker who reads a lot of English I can attest that the vocabulary thing is very real and quite annoying when you try to translate stuff. There are many words that are just inexistant in French and a pain in the ass to t

Some anecdotal evidence of its terrible qualities are the major degradation of software quality in the Apple ecosystem. In particular the rewrites or brand new softwares feel much worse than it used to be. I feel like if it was a good langu

I agree and find it disturbing people downvote this point of view because that is actually the most reasonable one when you look at the actual facts. It's completely stupid to pretend China is going green when their emissions have cont

Sure, if you plan on running the boat as a way to make money the total running cost would make sense, but it's just a leisure boat so the financial aspect isn't really good to start with. It's just a way to have fun while bur

Isn't the whole "raison d'être" of Apple to be able to do stuff that other computer company completely fail ? The surface make a poor tablet but that's mostly because the hardware isn't suitable for it anyway (

And Apple doesn't really want to anyway, they get to profit from both side this way. The iPad could be a fantastic machine but as is, it makes no sense for most workflow. It seems to be stuck at being a fancy notepad or expensive drawi

To be fair the paternalistic approach has really increased recently and I actually think it's mostly about greed in the end. They want to control not just because they think they know better, but because this is how they get to maximis

You lack perspective and have a poor imagination. They can absolutely make the iPad Pro run macOS just fine and figure out the software solution quite easily. They just need to make it run macOS by default but with an UI layer that could tr

Brave or stupid ? What I could get is that he is a young fool looking for "freedom" where there is none to be found. The boat isn't even interesting anyway, it's a bit dumb to spend that much money on an inadequate power

Yep, 25 euros a year for a goddamn app is ridiculous. It's the same price as a nice physical agenda, that needs all kinds of production and supply chain wizardry. Mobile devs are out of their minds nowadays. No that it matters that muc

Actually people don't expect it to be updated in most cases. In fact, Apple is generally forcing their hands with constant nagging to update and the psychologically taxing red notification dot that people do not know how to get rid of.

Yep, this is not the first time I have read the first few paragraphs of an article by her and told myself: why should I care about this partisan political bullshit. People like like to pretend their favorite side doesn't do as much bul

I'm sure there are some good ways to make it quite palatable but the issue is really the price that makes no sense. In France, last time I calculated, they are more expensive by weight than a prime cut of beef, that's just dumb.

That's nonsense. Funnily enough you are getting outraged by a nothing burger while complaining about emotional behavior. The argument could be summed up as: "since there are fast food restaurants everywhere, quality restaurants do

Yes that's the issue with predators, since they run around and use their muscles a lot, the meat is lean and quite hard; it doesn't make for a very tasty meal and the effort required to get this type of meal really isn't warr

But oysters are really not good. It tastes weird with too strong a note of salty water and has a pretty bad texture that makes masticating unenjoyable. They are poor man's food that got super expensive with clever marketing and supply

They always start with a false equivalency anyway, comparing stuff like cane sugar with cow meat, that's just extra dumb. I don't have proper calculation, but when you add up all the processing and extra requirement to grow high p

Yes I'm always a bit dumbfounded by this behavior as well. They always use weird stuff and I never have the intuition of the actual size, especially since the definition can vary depending on context. In this case, what is actually con

Yep this is what I thought as well. All this is probably linked to money oversupply and generalized inflation. It is particularly noticeable on the non-essential items, like tech stuff. And revenue is a weird indicator to take; profit would

This is the real issue. Before they can think about putting Ads, they should try to make a competitive product. I used to use Apple Maps but I just don't bother anymore. It's alright for navigation but pretty bad for discovery an

I am pretty sure that the whole pitch was that it would make people upgrade because they aren't selling enough iPhones anymore. Realistically the vast majority of people can use an iPhone made after 2020 and not care about "upgrad

I agree. For what I read quickly, it seems to be mostly the same stuff but "modernized". It's like the flavor of the day for email technology. Fundamentally it hasn't really changed much which is why I am a bit skeptical

I'm not sure what you are trying to say. Are you suggesting that I advocate for people going through a thermodynamics class so they "get it"? Traditional education isn't very effective even for some trivial matters so I
