Things are getting worse.

The Apple developer community has a responsibility to respond and WWDC is our opportunity.

@stevex Maybe... but there's a chance they recognize that forex has already jacked up prices elsewhere and will try to mitigate. We'll see!

We’ve just given the StarLite Mk V a little upgrade, it now comes with a better processor!

It’s the same trusted design you know, now with improved performance.
If you’re curious, we’ve put together a quick video with all the details.

Let us know what you think, and help spread the word by giving it a boost.

@ctietze @mergesort And assuming he did mean the latter, and someone (not Joe!) is NOT an excellent dev... that person is fsck'd right?

Can't tell if I'm just getting cynical but the Jony/Sam video just felt very off

Like that's the sorta shit you expect from some hashtag build in public mfs, not Jony fucking Ive

How I would improve the movie which I just saw: Mission: Impossible

Step one: cut about an hour and a half of pointless exposition out of it.

Step two: Tom Cruise comes on at the beginning and says, "look, never mind why, I have to dive into a submarine and escape. Then we're gonna have a chase with airplanes. It'll be great." Just show that part.

Also quit messing with the time signature. 5/4 or get out.

Colour me *wildly skeptical* — Sam & Jony exuberantly describe how much they love each other and how their upcoming product will change everything, new paradigm etc and I don't trust anyone anymore. Show me tech that works for people, not big tech, or gtfo

@ryan The "this" in this context was referring to the overall trend of "AI all the things". More specifically though? Silly things: video generation, Chrome integration, Astra's agent mode (scary!), UI generation (give me a fuckin break)... shopping?! GTFO with this spaghetti against the wall bs

FWIW, I think that’s a super-tight take.

Anyone else get this email for WWDC and think, “a bunch of failed AI announcements NOT coming till a couple years from now, from a company that cozies up to fascists and lies in court about how they stifle the dev community? Fuck that, and fuck them.”

Just me?

Getting the feeling that anytime you see every damn company falling all over themselves to implement a new technology — AI! — you should watch the fuck out. This is getting silly.
