Flipboard CEO knocks Apple News for closed ecosystem, says product is 'living in the past'...
See, now I totally enjoy Apple News because it allows me to custom what I see. I want a lot af science news, especially microbiology news. I like a lot of Apple news, which I get too along with the WSJ, NYT and other great news sources... thank you Apple for bringing me this news source!anantksundaram said:I don’t know much about FlipBoard or its CEO, but I can confidently say that I do not look at Apple News, at all. I go directly to the handful of sources — WSJ, NYT, The Guardian, AI, The Economist — I turn to every day and I have need for little else.
I think Apple may have been way late to the news game anyway. And, given that they really have no way or desire to monetize it — either through ads or a subscription — it’s just not clear to me what purpose it really serves in the Apple ecosystem. Seems like a bit of wasted effort.

TSMC said to have locked up all 'A12' chip orders for Apple's 2018 iPhones
Intel could charge hundreds of dollars for a x86 chip where they’d virtually have to give away an ARM chip, and they (incorrectly) felt that they didn’t need the low profit ARM buseness. With the ARM chips becoming quickly much more powerful than expected, the high-profit x86 business may evaporate much more quickly than expected...tjwolf said:I was going to comment/ask what is, from a foundry perspective, the difference between producing wafers that have ARM SOCs and Intel SOCs? A transistor is a transistor is a transistor, no matter the instruction set (ARM vs. x86) or type of cache or...isn't it?
