Let's say a clothing manufacturer imports 1M units a year from Vietnam, responds to tariffs by producing those 1M units in the USA Except they won't. Because there's no reward for doing so. The PR benefit is momentary, if it even exists. Corpor…

Thank you for this! I've had an original Eero Pro-based network for years and have been very happy with it. As I have a lot more wifi 6 and 7 devices now, I've been considering an upgrade to a newer Eero system, but haven't seen a lot of comparisons…

The purpose of this statement wasn't to suggest winners or losers, just speculation on how much impact the move will have. That 50% still use IAP is a sign that Apple has a chance to make the courts happy and still make money Sorry, I should have be…

Putting this in the same PR spin pile as Qualcomm's modem "study." The more Apple twists and turns and tries to control the narrative about their stupid little App Stores, the less inclined I am to care. The war is already lost, they just won't adm…

Good read, but this line stands out as the real takeaway: And instead of just downloading an app when we need it, we will have to vigilant — and finally read those terms and conditions. Anything that teaches, by hook or by crook, by reward or by c…

Why am I reminded of that scene in The Godfather, Part II where all the various American executives are seated at the table with the president of Cuba as he assures them the insurrectionists are no concern, and only Michael Corleone seemed aware tha…

There's so much garbage reporting about this ruling among the sycophant Apple press that it's refreshing to see such a measured and information-dense version. Kudos to AI. I've seen some legal discussion about Apple's chances on appeal and the con…

FCP is an afterthought in the general video production industry at this point. It exists as fanboy service for people who absolutely have to have an entire Apple stack. There are much better, more faster moving options with far more aggressive and i…

Eh, no argument that that upgrades over the iPad 10 are minimal at best, but with the usual Amazon, etc. discounts, it remains a tremendous value. Pair it with a simple $15 bluetooth keyboard (no need for the wildly, ridiculously expensive Magic Key…

Mr. Hilliard, you're a fine writer and I enjoy your articles. But your increasing need to challenge readers with parochial arguments in the comments is a bad look (not that my opinion matters, of course.) I have no real skin in this game—I don't li…

This sounds interesting! I also struggle with insomnia, and use and old pair of wired EarPods to listen to podcasts as I fall asleep, and if I wake up in the middle of the night to get back to sleep. @Amber, one question about this speaker: You me…
