    Stage manager is confusing and pretty awful.
    Sincere question, how is it confusing?

    To make matters worse, the app-modal window that pops up does not close when you press the Escape key, or any other key that I can determine. There's also no close button. You have to click the mouse on the weather app's main window outside of the popup to escape out of the popup. If you drag the app window when the popup is up it sometimes disappears, but not always. This is not a showstopper, but it's rather odd, unless my expectations regarding the Escape key and closing popups no longer apply.
    When I hit command W this closes the pop-up, this closes it. This does not work for you?

    I’ve been running Ventura betas on my M1 MacBook Air with only 8 GBs of memory and it finally feels like it is the speed that they marketed the machine to be. It feels very optimized for the hardware. I can’t wait to see how it’s going to feel on my M1 MacBook Pro Max with 64 GBs of memory!

  • Jony Ive's replacement Evans Hankey is leaving Apple

    She probably grew tired of the fact that Apple is no longer an innovator of new products but instead a refiner. 
    Do you honestly think with all the money that Apple has in the bank, all the money that they spend on R&D that they do not want innovative products? There are so many ways you can design a laptop, an all-in-one, an ultra-thin desktop, beyond that it being functional. You better believe Apple is always looking at ways, but if it ain't broke, why fix it? It cost money to make brand-new designs for every single iteration of a product.

    I wonder if there is something wrong with apple culture now that turns off geniuses like I’ve/Hanke and talent like ahrendts, though I don’t put her in the same air. Whatever it is, they need to fix it. 
    Come on, now, staff comes and goes. Where is Steve Wozniak? Where is Andy Hertzfeld? Where is Jean-Louis Gassée?
    You don’t lose TWO industrial design LEADS in three years time unless there’s a problem. 

    There’s a culture weirdness at apple that needs to get sorted stat. Keep the normal, hardworking, talented people and stop bowing to the agenda people. 

    And you want to talk about small, nascent industry apple. Go ahead. I’m talking about resurrected apple that found its purpose, identity, and power. The one that turned multiple industries upside down and redefined them for the better. I don’t see anyone copying the works of apple from back then. I do see the entire world following the apple from the iPod era onward. So… good luck with that. 
    So you're saying that after 25 years of working at Apple, she does not deserve to retire and do as she pleases? That there must be a problem with Apple?
