Readit NewsAlways need to attach an adapter to my Anker chargers and powerbanks.
I do want to be paid fairly for my work so the transparency of same job is useful, but a CEO is so far removed from me. I don't compare myself to a major league baseball player either.
Can someone enlighten me to why I should be outraged at this "inequality"?
Does a C-level executive deliver £20m of value, or do they extract it?
Landlords and rent seekers get rich from what they own, not what they create. C-levels rewarded in shares for short-term gains are no different.
Tell me, does that single individual earning so much represent better or worse value for an organisation than you do?
What’s their ROI multiplier?
It’s fine if it’s higher. If it’s not higher, it’s corporate greed and feudal fat-cattery.
If the Vision Pro was able to natively run Mac apps I think people’s attitude towards it would be a lot different.
At the moment, it’s a glorified iPad you can wear on your face.
But imagine if it wasn’t.
Like many dogs, my dog gets bored and looks for something to bark at. He scans out the window like I scan social media. He’s got extra energy that seems to need to go somewhere, and that somewhere seems to be looking out the window scanning for threats, barking, sounding meaner than he actually is.
It’s like he manufactures anxiety out of nothing else to do.
You’ve just changed my perspective on my life (and my spaniel’s).
Thank you Doug.
I’ve seen founders work round the clock again and again. That kind of makes sense.
But Stebbings… I’m not going to put 996 in for any firm in your portfolio. And anybody who does is a mug.
This 996 bullshit is a skill issue. Need extra hours at school to finish your work? That’s a shame, all the clever kids are at home already (working on their side hustles that are 10x more likely to pay off).
It doesn’t surprise me that this stems from China: a place where ‘face’ and hours-behind-the-desk culture are extremely prominent.
People should be able to show up, put a shift in and go the fuck home. Sometimes there are reasons to work a little longer…
But expecting this kind of behaviour is objectively shitty leadership.
To your point, take six steps back and use the 5x zoom on an iPhone Pro and you'll get a much better effect.
As they say, the best camera is the one you have in your pocket. Physics means it can never replace a large sensor with a large lens...
... But Danny Boyle (28 Days Later, The Beach, Trainspotting, 127 Hours) was quite happy to film 28 Years Later entirely on the iPhone 15 Pro Max [1].

Instead of manually hunting across half a dozen different elements, then copy/paste and retype to put something into a format I want…
I can just get Dia do it. In fact, I can create a shortcut to get it to do it the same way every single time. It’s the first time I’ve used something that actually feels like an extension of the web, instead of a new way to simply act on it at the surface level.
I think the obvious extension of that is agentic browsers. I can’t wait for this to get built to a standard where I can use it every day… But how well is it going to run on my 16GB M1 Pro?
In Merseyside you’ve also got Wools/Scousers, each with different patter and pronunciation. Not to mention Warrington and its accent further East.
