Daring Fireball: Another Tim Cook Product Announcement Teaser on X: ‘There’s Something in the Air’
@gruber … Is it just me that thinks 🍎 missed a trick by not using 🔗🎵📼Thunderclap’s song
Only one third in - and we will get to the Silverlake/WPEngine fracas .. but for now a 🎙️🔗link to Lenny’s podcast and a wise thought.
Side note - no expert on how this is all going to shake out in the courts - but from what I read - I remain on Matt’s side.
🔗 Our Muslim Boy Wonder - Michael Moore
(It’s about ’Steve’, but it this caught my attention …
How many millions upon millions over the years have snuck into this nation without permission, without invitation, just wham-bam-thank-you-Uncle-Sam-you’re-an-American-man now – ** in this case because of the perhaps questionable morals of a Wisconsin farmer’s daughter**.
💬 Michael Moore
… my bold, because I have questions …
- Why is it only the daughter’s questionable morals?
- What about the morals of Abdulfattah Jandali?
- Why is it even about ‘morals’ - though I guess it was 1950.

I think when you struggle, then a goal can become just commercial issues. I understand – I mean, if you’re losing lots of money, you’d like to stop losing lots of money. The problem there is it means you focus on money, and you’re normally losing money because the products aren’t right. And from ‘92 to ‘97, it was a very, very difficult season. One that I am so grateful for – but I still get the shivers sometimes.
💬 Jonny Ives
This really resonated - and if you read some of the stuff I read - it will ring bells, because it is like life;
the money comes when you stop chasing the money
I also liked Gruber’s extented thought;
Judging them as good or bad isn’t the correct framework. It’s that they weren’t right. There’s an inherent subjectiveness to rightness.
