Is it just me or is it that if you can’t afford to buy this outright you shouldn’t be buying it. If I used credit I would reserve it for necessities - like an appliance going out, not a HomePod?? Call me crazy...

Even though I can afford to pay cash for most things I buy, I still take advantage of interest-free financing options. There's very little downside to improving your personal float when it costs you nothing.

I've found Beats headphones don't fit people with larger noggins. They seem to be engineered for kids or small adults.

I wonder if that's why so many professional athletes wear them.

I agree with Tim Cook's sentiment that learning coding is more important than learning a foreign language, but only if you do not have to collaborate across a team composed of members from countries with different written & spoken languages. 

English is the lingua franca (lol) of international business. English is the lingua franca of the tech industry. English language instruction is one of the fastest-growing segments in education. English - not Mandarin or Spanish and certainly not Portugese - is the future of spoken and written communication.

I believe the correct spelling is “rejiggered”.

I believe you must be very fun at the American-only parties you attend.

However, if the recipient is not using iMessage, your text will go plain on the internet highway from your phone to your party's.

That...that is not how SMS works.
