This is a good name for the new campus considering the building looks like a stadium.
To get a sense of the scale of the new HQ I pulled up AT&T Park and Apple Park in Apple Maps.
You could fit all of AT&T Park which seats approximately 42,000 people inside the new campus with plenty of room to spare!

More people die each year due to the FDA banning safe drugs that they could use to get better, than due to all auto accidents combined.

These scumbags are not your friends, and they don't care how many people they murder with their regulations.

Yes! Regulations are the problem!
Bureaucrats want to slowly kill us with their "speed limits", traffic rules, inspections and health and safety laws.
I'm tired of the government telling me what is safe to eat.

Auto drive can't come early enough! Especially for the long haul truckers!

In principle I would like to see self driving cars, but in practice I won't support the idea until the computer becomes as smart about human life issues as an 18 year old. Right now I'm guessing that self driving cars have the intelligence of a 6 year old. Which is impressive.

Siri is approximately 9 years old.

Apple's Global Security team then searched Chen's computer, discovering manuals, diagrams, and schematics, as well as about a hundred photos shot inside Apple offices. One photo handed to the FBI depicted an assembly drawing of an Apple-designed wiring harness.

The positive takeaway is...Apple-designed wiring harness.

iPhone killed the scanner star.

The Airport line of products is still for sale on Apple's website. I don't think they will be discontinued any time soon but don't expect any major upgrades. 

I think Apple has seen the writing on the wall and realized that consumers routers have reached their evolutionary peak. They will not evolve as they have reached a "more than good enough" stage.   They will continue to exist but be slowly be rendered obsolete by 5G. 

Also I believe that for the vast majority of consumers a cloud based backup like Backblaze makes more sense than Time Capsule.  It would be nice to eventually see iCloud offer a full disk backup option.
