It was botching Mobile that really did Balmer in and possibly not reacting quite quickly enough to the need for Enterprise-grade Cloud Computing while Amazon was bootstrapping AWS right in Microsoft's back yard. They got the cloud sit

Tim Cook was the right guy to run Apple after the death of Jobs. He is entirely the wrong guy to run Apple in the era of AI. The board must be wondering what Apple's AI strategy is and why they aren't pushing M-chips into the data

Older programmer: Nobody gives a shit about your code and nobody thinks about you as much you think they do :) Practically it may be worth keeping code for a particular class private for the duration of the term, semester whatever so you do

What youre describing is called iOS on a large iPad. Everyone from 4 year olds to my 77 year old computer illiterate Dad can figure it out. This doesn't look very usable at all by someone who isn't basically a computer nerd.
