  • You wont be able to get Facebook Messenger on Apple Watch soon

    If you like FB, fine. But who wants to message anything on the watch? Don't we have iPhones, iPads and Macs for that? Ever try typing a password on your watch?
    I agree though I have occasionally needed to use Messages (not FB Messenger) and type a reply on the watch when it was not convenient to get my phone out — like up on a scaffold or something and no easy access to pants pocket.  

    But I agree.  Typing anything substantive on the watch is a chore.  
    Type on a watch? Good grief. Try Voice-to-Text, it works really well for me :-)

  • Spotify's new design looks like TikTok

    Would dearly love to see a redesign of the Apple Music app. It’s the #1 reason I prefer Spotify (well, that, and a better algorithm that finds music I like). Haven’t seen Spotify’s new design yet, I hope they didn’t “fix” what wasn’t broken…

  • Wedbush raises Apple stock target to $190 on rising demand

    $190 price target for Apple Inc. Same as Morgan Stanley.
    What is never mentioned is "over what time period?" If it's over a week, that's dramatically different than over a year. Or is $190 a point at which Apple stock is fully valued and has no room to go higher and should be sold? If I'd followed that advice, over the last 10 years I'd have lost over $100,000 by selling when Apple hit previous price targets.

    Buy it. Hold it. Put your kids through college.
    Indeed. The one and only great bet my wife and I made in the investment game was purchasing a ton of APPL within a month of SJ’s return to Apple in 1997. Have held it ever since, and we put two kids debt-free through 4 years of college. It was particularly nice when the stock split 7-to-1 in 2014 when it hit $700/share, and later a 4-to-1 split in 2020. Now we have a ton of shares. Will be very nice if it ever hits $190/share, but I’ll believe it when I see it. Anyway, thanks Apple!

  • After 5 years of nothing, Humane 'startup' is now shifting to AI

    Having watched the Elizabeth Holmes / Theranos story on TV, this smells like redux. Grift at a scale of $100 Million? Wow, possibly a new record.

  • Chinese display maker CSOT wants to make screens for iPad, MacBook


    Tesla first factory is at Freemont. Now its Shanghai plant is producing more EV than it. Why Freemont workers or even Austin workers cannot produce more? 
    'Cause selling Teslas in China was made contingent on Tesla building a plant there? Either that or EMusk has a girlfriend there? ;-)
