You are thinking days and weeks ahead instead of months and decades. I agree the app store as it stands is crap. I think the ship has sailed on the app store being crap. That's a short term, soluble problem. Long term, UI + neurology will determine the 21st century we are headed for.
All the other corporations suck at integrating UI and the brain.
Watching people talk about the technology game as if what's happening right now (i.e. last years decisions) matters on a larger scale is like watching kindergardeners play soccer by mobbing the ball. While you're talking about HTMML in the app store, they're thinking about 2010, 2020.
If the printing press was just invented, you'd be saying monks had been copying books by hand forever, and were more open then the printing press.
- Tichy 18y agoJust not betting on Apple, that's all. I think/hope the "corporations" only have a couple of years left before open source takes over completely. At the moment they still have some hold on the hardware, but open source hardware will fix that. Apple hurts my brain because I can not amend it to my needs.
- LPTS 18y agobut open source cannot compete with apple. That is like saying an army with no generals, navy, air force or money will beat an army with a great general with stealth bombers, battleships, and a building filled with hundred dollar bills and gold bars. Just not gonna happen.
- Tichy 18y agoIn my opinion Linux has already beat Microsoft and Apple on the desktop, why should it not be possible with hardware? Open Source can have generals, too, and if money was the only issue, why didn't Microsoft beat Apple?
- LPTS 18y ago"Why didn't Microsoft beat Apple?" Because the CEO of microsoft believes emulating the alpha male of a gorilla exhibit in the zoo is the best way to lead people?
