I think the Apple Car concept was ending up as counterproductive to the rest of the Apple ‘ecosystem.’ Consider how CarPlay reinforces the Apple suite of devices and services. Your iPhone seamlessly integrates with your car, bringing Apple Music a…

"More than most firms, however, Apple does have a reputation for doing exactly that cannibalization. The most famous example is how it entirely destroyed its own iPod with the iPhone." That's, um, an interesting perspective. It seems like an entir…

I'd like to offer this public service suggestion for anyone who would like to help people affected by Hurricane Helene (or any other disaster): In most cases, the best thing that you can do is to find a reputable disaster recovery organization or c…

She’s right, of course. Without environmental regulation, we’d still have flammable rivers, smog-wrapped cities, and leaded gasoline running cars that get eight mpg. The business world attracts too many sociopaths who will gladly take the shortest r…

The link to the patent application doesn't work, but I will speculate again here that it is often the case that Apple patent applications are written so as to obfuscate what a resulting end product might actually be. The novel concept here appears …

Scrutinizing the numerator when you don’t know the denominator is pure folly.

The iPad does have M-series chips, yes, but it has neither passive nor active ventilation for cooling those chips. It is a wafer-thin, sealed case tablet. This is a key reason why you won't see those background tasks you're hoping for. It's why the …
