AppleTV, as opposed to all other Apple devices, is not so much about design. It's about content, and of course ease of use. AppleTV remote is not clever. I often accidentally startup AppleTV by moving the remote around. Finding something is not very good, Siri doesn't work impressively. Also, sometimes a movie is said to be only available for purchase, although it is also available on my Netflix subscription. So, also universal search is not yet convincing. Content wise – nothing that others offer as well. Apple does not offer something unique with AppleTV. AirPlay, maybe. But this lack of uniqueness, while AppleTV also cannot even serve as fashion statement makes it a regular player in the market. Nothing extraordinary as is usually Apple's DNA. And that's why I think they called it a Hobby before: they knew they could do something like that, but nothing special about it.

"looser encryption" is that a new "technical" term? 

Yes, it means 'less secure'.  

Or insecure.

Or loosecure.

I didn't know Microsoft hired the video add team from Apple. They're good as always.

The problem with this announcement is: it sounds as if Apple is seeking inspiration from the developer community. Usually, Apple is the source of inspiration. Not the other way round.

Citation needed. 

"talents to help us change the world" – it says on the invitation. Or in brief: "help us, talents"

Is it now possible to plug 4 chargers and charge this thing up in 5 minutes?

With that sort of thinking you could get yourself a job at Samsung  

Yeah right, and the everything is going up in flames again. But seriously, what would happen if you plug in more than one charger? Just out of curiosity.
