rax_mark said: I understand that as an Apple fan you view the tech world through that lens. However, in doing so you misalign facts and brand lies as truth. You say everyone copies from Apple, but wasn't it Apple who copied the GUI from Xerox…

I'm not in favor of data harvesting by government agencies or commercial entities, but if the information they are referencing is already out there (commercially available), whether damaging or innocuous, those horses have been loose for many decade…

If the author is referencing the 15 or 30% fees, then Apple was correct and not "disingenuous". After all they are talking about a specific fee, not total revenues that may include other costs and fees.

benni641 said: One thing that I’ve not seen anyone comment on is that an AVP is actually less expensive than a 1984 Mac, in updated dollars. $2500 in 1984 dollars is the equivalent of about $7300 today. So why the “oh, it’s so expensive!” stu…

Very informative post, Chip. Thanks.

While FBI data shows a 7% increase in property crimes between 2021 and 2022, it follows a decades long downward trend. The last reduction in the top tax rate was a reduction from 39.7% to 37% in 2017. So there is little to no correlation. If you w…

AppleZulu said: Good on Mr. Cook for taking less, but CEO pay is ridiculous and obscene. Our financial system has created a corrupt feedback loop that incentivizes corporate boards and corporate executives to ratchet up pay in a sick distorti…

If you buy a "Mercedes" you let them guide you through the features. Unless, of course, you're 9-Second guy who obviously is way too busy for that kind of hand-holding or social interaction, whether required for a product or not depending on your co…

mortarman81mm said: While Apple may have the money to fund epic sci-fi programming, I've found that all too often the scripts and acting are uneven. They really need to be a bit more selective in determining which studios they're going to tru…

I find it amusing that so many compare recent AI implementations to Siri, which are not the same things, as 9secondkox has said. Further, it is a truism that long term solutions often require long term research, and the fact that most here think A…

track_trk said: Well, Apple is twice as old as Google as a starting point. Also, don't forget the bad phase Apple had to go through when it was almost going bankrupt. I understand the love for Apple on an Apple site, but the creator of YouTube…
