  • Editorial: Why is Samsung's Galaxy Fold graded on a curve?


    k2kw said:

    1. Deiter Bohn is the ultimate Android apologist - much like DED for Apple.
    2. You certainly are implying that there is something wrong with Stern's relationship with Samsung. Are you actually saying she's paid off and if so how so? I'm thrilled that Stern took Apple to task for continuing problems with the butterfly keyboard 3 years after introduction and a couple design tweeks. Apple holds the WSJ's writing high enough that they are putting it in News+.
    3. Gruber definitely gets more inside information than you. It's a sign that many at Apple hold him in more respect. Your writing would probably get more respect if you stopped being the "High Sparrow" of Apple writing.
    4. I see stories all over the place that the Fold is breaking. They are not covering it up or minimizing it. This article is more a payback for negative articles over Apple's failure to deliver AirPower. still smarting.
    5. If Samsung does get this working, Apple will gladly source them as a supplier like with the OLED screen on the iPhone X and XS. Apple is now longer "Thermonuclear" with Samsung obviously. And of course Samsung will sell it to Apple because they will make more money as a supplier.
    First learn how to quote like a person who respects other's time. 
    Second, you're choosing to be an anonymous commenter who is rude and condescending..  
    Now, aren't both these sentences ironic, coming from "Corrections"...?

    @corrections You didn't read my advice about making sure your hypothesis was correct and then keeping it short and concise, did you?

    DED articles are the girl that cried "Wolf!", it's fun in the beginning but after a few years it gets boring and predictable.

    The boy who cried wolf is a story about lying and then subsequently not being taken seriously. 

    The “DED articles” you malign with your mangled-nonsensical metaphor haven’t “cried wolf” about anything. Specific to Alexa and voice, they’ve set a record of being consistently correct for years while punditry were spewing grand forecasts and dire warnings about a lot of wolf-stuff that never ended up happening. 

    And if you want to take real action about being boring and predictable, look in the mirror. Your comments are ceaselessly, pointlessly, embittered naggy barbs that don’t add anything to the conversation. 
    No reason to be so aggressive. He actually IS right, while often interesting and sometimes correct, your articles tend to be far too wordy and one-sided. Even something called an Editorial can be balanced and focused. Just a hint from a former journalist gone app developer.
    It would be great to simplify this content into memes or video to reach a broader audience. 

    What would you suggest would bring more “balance” or “focus” to this piece? Fewer examples of predictions that turned out false? Less evidence of the negative ROI Amazon got from developing a low value, albeit often impressive technology? I’d appreciate your feedback. 
    Fewer examples, yes, that would be a good start. Gather all the evidence you need to make sure your hypothesis is correct, and then choose a few to make your point in the text. You know, this is an "Editorial", not a PhD thesis.
    You're welcome.

    Oh No, yet another AI article on promoting the false propaganda of price cuts by Apple!!! An DED article attacking AI is overdue now.
    Some of the other Contributing Editors for AI come across to me as have a negative Apple slant. One that is echoed in other articles. Mac rumors many times posts the same information but the headlines, tone, and focus can be completely different, depending on the author. It’s been that way for a few years. I appreciate DED’s dedication to highlighting the inaccuracies and sometimes all out deceptive narrative of analysis and some journalists when it comes to Apple. 
    I'm not sure how this article has a "negative Apple slant?"
    Well, it claims Apple is cutting prices, something they'd obviously never do. Race to the bottom, you know?
