Man! The cyberpunk dystopia is here; it just doesn’t look as cool as I wanted it to.

I just love the city, and I'd like to buy a property there.

I just hate that pedantic comments like the original poster are the most upvoted on HN.

The most upvoted comment on most articles isn't addressing the topic; it's some sort of ridiculous analysis or criticism of process, or an embedded piece of javascript, or whatever.

Anyone have any thoughts on Montreal?

Any thoughts on Montreal?

The data they received is a competitive advantage and they are not under any obligation to publish it. You don't need to, or are allowed to, extend your demands of peer-reviewed academia to modern online journalism. Stop whining, and address the claims of the article.

As an aside, I do not think Apple gets nearly enough credit for designing iOS, WatchOS and MacOS with the needs of the blind and disabled in mind. It's truly a beautiful thing.

Bravo.

It's not allowed in the EU. Our regulatory system is broken.

Lawyers are awful.

I have to believe a new monitor is coming between 1,500 and 2,000.

They did not meet pro-poseurs expectations. They met actual professionals expectations.

The total addressable market for the niche you described would generate less revenue for Apple than Lightening cables.

Also, I think you're wrong about the iMac Pro. And the fact that you're complaining about a FOUR to SIX year lifespan? I don't even expect a car to last 6 years in any meaningful shape.

There are massive externalities to Chinese influence from a culture of a city/state side. I think this is a good thing.

I remember installing BeOS on my Performa 6400. It was a cool little piece of kit.

Addendum - I'm a marketer so I always see things through the lens of the expression of self.

I totally sympathize with wanting a pro-lite Mac tower... but it won't happen. Try a Mac mini with an eGPU.

It's real, and it's an awful workflow editing via "proxy" - imagine cleaning your apartment through grease-smeared glasses and you're only able to take them off and see your work when your guests are already knocking at your front door.

Apple called "Pro Users" bluff. The "pro user" that used to be served by the old Mac Pro was the same dope who gets the M-Sport BMW 3 Series, or the DSLR with the Kit Lens, etc. It's the rich dad "I want the best of X, but not the actual professional product, because I don't need it."

Other examples include Arc'Teryx clothing that is worn by VC's in Silicon Valley for wealth projection that will never see the austere environments that the clothing was designed for.

Apple made a true pro machine, and now the pro-poseurs are pissed.

BTW I am a pro-poseur, concerned with pro-image vs actual pro features. I desperately want an Apple monitor with speakers that docks to my MBP for around $1799.

Predicting. And threatening.

Wrong. I make over 200,000 with zero college degree. Professional marketer - including SurveyMonkey in my CV.

Dude, you’re their parents! Take some responsibility!

This is probably warranted.

1000% - remember when Google Adwords ads on search were in their own light-green or brown box? Hard to remember.

This is so utterly scummy. And what's sad is, no one will actually care.

Think about this - the same amount of tech, of engineering, of “stuff” like window regulators, speakers, steering wheel, etc goes into a subcompact 4 door as does a 4 door SUV, minus cheap stuff like body panels interior carpet.

This very nearly almost made me aroused. What a wonderful idea.

Agreed. I wish we had more details. A hint of apple's touch is simply the radius of the connector metal - it's very elegant.

Yep! Here's one - it's light on specifics but the gist is that Apple was heavily influential on the actual connector design, not anything related to spec/bus etc.

Reminder that Apple designed the USB-C connector, which is why it's so friggin' user friendly!
