  • Tim Cook will be at the White House for US investment announcement

    Tim Cook is the type of CEO I want as an investor . Navigating and working with all administration intelligently .
    Except that he doesn't. He lost the EU tax evasion case, the Epic case (EU + US), the EU USB-C requirements, DOJ price-fixing on books, and DOJ is now actively trying to kill the $20 billion Google deal while one his executives might have committed perjury. After Trump #45 he dumped Intel in favor of non-American chips and bet everything on foreign components.

    Add that Cook during the last 5 years have made strategic misfires on cars, AI, "Trump isn't serious about tariffs", and "must (ship now to) compete with Zuckerberg on headsets". No wonder the market cap is stalling.

    As an investor I prefer to have a CEO that can deliver tomorrow.
    this is why you don't let investors run the actual company.

  • Redesigned iPhone 17 Pro camera may lead Apple to reposition its logo

    The logo doesn't belong centered in the open space. Apple won't do that.

    That differs from meta, twitter, truth social how?


    Trump was the one who set the ban in motion in the first place back in his first Reign of Error.  That’s my point.

  • If you were underwhelmed by WWDC 2025, you're not alone

    No offense, but are you a developer?  It's a developer conference where developers are introduced to new capabilities introduced in the new OSes.

    You can't judge a conference by its keynote.
    The WWDC Keynote isn't for developers. It started with a TV+ show and had fitness sessions. It also had an absurd number of "product people" showing their diversity by all being "thrilled" to stand in a virtual wasteland speaking the same marketing lingo. None of them would survive 2 minutes in a Standup with developers.

    As for the developer part... Xcode to include ChatGPT. Apple is at least 5 years behind MS and CoPilot. There simply is no Apple AI in Xcode for 2025/26. Somehow there are clients and more clients but no cloud or servers or partnership with cloud providers to tie things together. Cook is the king of iterations but the world is moving at pace.


    It STARTED with an ad for their upcoming theatrical release. They couldn’t even be bothered to do that much for developers.   And FYI, their diversity had nothing to do with anything you were talking about. They were product and engineering and design people, as appropriate to the topic.
