“Apple. Dear, sweet Apple. Open your eyes. WAKE UP. By 2026, OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, Amazon, Microsoft, xAI, honestly probably even Cisco – no offense, Cisco – is going to have run laps around whatever it is that you're cooking up.”

This is some next level sweaty hype driven demanding of Apple. Slow your roll.

What have these companies mentioned cooked up that people are scrambling to pay money for?

The only winner so far is NVIDIA.

Wake Up, Apple

With AI, the cadence has changed. Shipping in two years won't cut it.

#macOS is by no means perfect (although, y’know, close). One glaring design error is the menu bar, which doesn’t handle the – uhum ­– edge case where there are too many menu bar icons to display on screen (either because they bump up against the current app’s menu or, on the laptops, the notch… which, well, don’t get me started on the notch…)

Anyway, so a lovely little indie app called Ice fixes the problem the way #Apple should have.

I love how Apple's HQ is literally a walled garden
