WikiLeaks documents show CIA struggling to crack Apple gear, little danger to everyday fol...
Statistically, Americans are at greater risk of being struck by lightening than killed by terrorists. Never mind, the risks of pollution, car crashes, medical mistakes, etc. The real irony here is that we spend a trillion a year defending Americans from the least likely threats. Is it the most glamorous? Easiest to scare people with? Sure! This thread is proof of how easy it is to get the citizens all spun up and emotional. It's BS. We have enough firepower on the Truman and one Ohio-class sub to return humanity to the dark ages. How can we be worried! The CIA would literally save more lives helping older ladies cross the street.wood1208 said:We need to strengthen USA's intelligence safeguards and punish by death(him/her and their family) if anyone from inside leak any intelligence. Today, it may be silly inforamtion that CIA trying to create tools to hack IOS but tomorrow it can leak about the brave intelligence undersover agent's names which can put their life in harms-way, get killed.

Nine Years of Apple's iOS SDK generated $60 billion, 1.4 million jobs
There's nothing about this data that is negative. Total net positive for all that didn't exist 10 years ago.

Editorial: The future of Steve Jobs' iPad vision for Post-PC computing
This is the type of article that brings out the best in AI forums. We have a lot intelligence, imagination and experience. It comes right out in topics like this.
To me, iOS and macOS need to have discreet functionality for each to be optiomized. The discreet hardware form factors are actually a reflection of this functionality, rather than the other way around.
Accordingly, when macOS runs on ARM, then we have seemless hardware form factor options. We have an iPad/iPhone that functions as macOS when docked with a full sized keyboard and display and then can function as an iPad/iPhone/Mac when carried about. This is full functionality in any scenario, which I imagine is the next paradigm. iCloud provides the common cross-OS file system. This seems the obvious solution.

Apple board member Al Gore sells $29.5M of company stock
Progressive thought is like, where progress comes from, which is like, why it's call progressive (thought). Progressive thought is huge.
Al Gore is moving to a sustainable home, high up on a Hawaiian island, where he'll be able to watch the North Atlantic current stop and Washington DC get covered in ice. He knows it's now too late.

Apple's iPhone drops to fifth place in Chinese smartphone market
Yes. Philosophically, Apple is taking a great approach to products. Even content creation apps are looking better. The premium value is there, so sales will follow. The end is preexistent in the means.ireland said:
I'm more interested in why you care? Since when did we fall in love with a company for how much money they are making at a certain moment in China? If that's our metric then we may as well give up now. It's so uninteresting to me whether they have 25% or 85% profit of the Chinese market. The source of all of these stories is greed anyway, because we're obsessed with number and money and Wall St. and measuring everything on a chart and the media is completely fucked up about this subject matter. Who gives two shits. I think we should all refocus on design and easy of use and company direction and company philosophy where the interesting creative stuff is to talk about. Enough with the boring comparisons. The only people who should be interested in this are stockholders and they have a vested interest in their argument, so their argument every time may as well be: "I own AAPL".applesauce007 said:What percentage of the profit does Apple make in China?
