EU announces new tax plan that clamps down on digital platforms
It is shocking how little tech has come out of the EU. Almost zero over the last 10 years. Way too many bureaucrats foxed on tax grabs and not enough coders. They work themselves into a box at every opportunity
Any tax over reach is simply going to be met with tariffs form the US. It 's a no win situation (again)

Microsoft's Steven Sinofsky calls Apple Silicon strategy 'fearless'
True
Apple Silicon is going to be crazy good. Not just speed, but all the other integrations. Apple has a real opportunity to drive Mac unit share above 20%. That would more than double Apple’s annual Mac units. Plus, gross margins will be better
Huge financial opportunity

Compared: Apple's Developer Transition Kit versus Mac mini
I would not be surprised at all (and even expect) Apple will speed up thIs A12 dev unit so it surpasses anything Mac mini shipping with Intel
Just to make a point and to get developers excited about the raw performance benefits to come
Can’t wait to see the Geekbench

France shames Apple for not sacrificing user privacy for COVID-19 app
Opening Bluetooth access to apps running in the background would be a security disaster. It is comical that a "Digital Technology Minister" would be demanding it.
It turns out this guy has no programming or software experience. And, very limited business experience. He's never developed an app in his life. A true socialist bureaucrat appointed to help lead digital technology in France. LOL
