@daringfireball anyone remember a time we tried to keep pages under 35? 35Kb, not Mb. I do. Anything close to 100 was willful disregard of the user.

@buckfiftyseven @daringfireball what’s it going to run, a proprietary OS? We already have a dual mobile phone economy. Slapping a brand mark on top isn’t changing anything. The apps make the phone. An edge to Apple for the hardware + OS experience.

@bret I give up 😂

@daringfireball spot on. In layman’s terms: it’s weak sauce.

@bret @daringfireball full Windows?

@bret @daringfireball does he dabble in Macs or is he full Linux?

@jeffcgd @daringfireball the new wave of Apple human interface people forgot what made Apple software iconic, beautiful, and practical. Although, I’m not sure Apple ever truly did UI science; they had smart people with good taste and opinions.

@abhimat @daringfireball @gruber @nickheer this, so much.

@seiz @daringfireball wow. I’ve never seen that one. But man is that beautiful.

@daringfireball what a bad take, Gruber. What a bad take. You fought Epic’s stance on the App Store. It’s Apple’ store. They reserve the right to dictate terms. Here, Anthropic is not allowed to dictate how its software can be used “within the law.” Which is only as good as the person you’re sitting across from.
