Who said that LGBTQ or minorities cannot be qualified?  How about hiring the brightest, the best and most talented without regard to their skin color, their plumbing or things that have absolutely nothing to do with things unrelated to the job?  Hire by merit, that's how Apple got out of the garage.

Exactly. Everyone is capable. No demographic or identity is better than any other. Diverse companies and nations prosper more than monolithic ones.

Waze is still 100x better than Apple Maps on CarPlay. 

100%? Tell that to my friend who stopped by my house just this weekend. As she got into her car to come over she said to her husband, “we have to use Apple Maps.” He looked at her and said, “I’m using Waze.”  20 minutes later, when they were at the destination that Waze directed them to she informed him that it wasn’t our house and not even our street (it was the right town, though). Oops. Out came Apple Maps and they made it to us. 

It's idiotic how Apple Maps shows your route zoomed in within 50 feet or so of where your vehicle is on the map as you are traveling. You can't even see upcoming cross streets, traffic incidents, etc. Waze is so much more dynamic how it zooms in and out depending on how far you have to go. And traffic reporting and alerts are just more reliable. Maps is prettier, but Waze is more reliable and efficient.

Reminder: real guns are banned at all GOP and conservative rallies, conferences, and conventions.

I don't know if there are statistics out but I would make a bet that AppleCard users have higher incomes and are smarter with their money than the average credit card consumer. This would be a loss in an industry that survives only on high interest rates charged when people f-up or don't pay their entire bill on time. The high-yield savings rate and instant cash back rewards loses these banks money when their customers are actually responsible by paying their bills on time and not spending beyond their means.

Who deserves it: Phil Schiller

Who has the personality for it: Craig Federighi

Who I wish would get it: Scott Forstall

You think prices are inflated now, wait until he bullies out Jerome Powell and puts in a Fox News host to run the reserve.

Remember when billionaires were intelligent and respectable?

12 years later, still can’t make a phone call half the time, and voicemails will be sent to the phone after a few days, or whenever the iPhone and/or carrier gets around to it.

Aaaaaand the iPhone 8 is already obsolete.
