  • Don't read too much into early Apple Vision Pro app sales

    At this point discovery is hard. You need to be featured on the App Store. There will be more interest in apps for media consumption and things you can’t do with your other devices. At this point there is only a handful of those 600 apps that you can’t do on other platforms. You can’t expect a timer app that has no real benefit to being in AR to do well. Those types of apps should only be on Vision Pro to prepare for the future when it sells millions of units- maybe in the 4th generation of the headset if you believe the rumors or internal sentiment.

  • Apple Vision Pro could take four generations to perfect

    By perfect, they probably mean the headset form will have obvious issues minimized. This category has a long way it could evolve.

  • New rumor claiming iOS 18 redesign is inspired by Apple Vision Pro is in the wrong order

    Round icons are unlikely I think, but more use of physically-based rendering in the UI could make sense.

  • Don't try to sneak an Apple Vision Pro into Germany, the import cops will nab you

    Buying through eBay would require an export license or it could be confiscated by US customs because the price is too high.

    Such BS.

    Over the years, I have stopped numerous times to ask for directions. If the person told me to make L instead of R, I never ended up in a lake or crashing into a building. The worst that ever happened is that I came to a dead end road staring out at a field. I didn't drive into the field! I called my friend received new directions and I was on my way.

    Take responsibly for your stupid mistakes and lack of attention to what is going on around you.
    Couldn’t agree more. These drivers should have paid more attention on the road

    Sure, but you can imagine, in the future, when self driving cars are more or less blindly following directions given out by mapping SW,there could be quite serious consequences.
    Not really, because the cars would stop before actually crashing.

    Right, Not really. There should be standards established for self driving approved roads that will take care of this. Most likely self driving would detect the stairway as an obstacle easier then a human could in this case. Sometimes self driving is worse than a human, but in this case it should be better.
