since you talked about the unprofitable tech companies, well, the winners will emerge and they will produce returns that are as good as their predecessors did. I don't like to call bottom or top, but if we are not at the bottom, we at least can buy what we love at a decent discount today :) so, cheers.
The new Air looks great. But it's pricey. Those models with just the 256GB SSD tbh is not usable for serious workload. I'm opinioned to trade in my old light MacBook Pro 13 for the new iPad Pro 14-inch (rumored lol). You can see that the trend is to blur the line between MacOS and Pad OS (is that the right name?)
Enjoy your life. Maybe even use your crypto!

I can do DCA while enjoy life. Indeed, if the price goes down by 80%, it can take another 50% down, and be looking from the ATH view, it's just from -80% to -90%. The emotional challenge to stay in the game is overwhelming for ordinary joes. DCA to most of us seems to be a reasonable path...
I thought apple watch was a joke because of its short battery life and the UX just seems clumsy. Now, I'm wearing it every day. My point is - never say never.
just like the early days of Internet - multiple protocols will coexist till one becomes dominant. technology changes fast, so does the use cases and new demand. If we don't know which force will win for sure, we better off bet on both.
I found a focused & short checklist really makes me feel happy everyday :) Just strikethrough the things in the list at the end of the day, every day.
In the end, the web is made of data and the applications of data. We are entering a new era that individuals can possibly own their data at a reasonable cost on the web. I think - whether it's 3.0 or 4.0 doesn't matter - the digital title built upon blockchain is the real innovation here. NFT and the new way of organizing resources around a common purpose could be the drivers of the next rapid adoption.
For most of us, we don't, and may never fully will understand its impact. We just need to try to be part of it. When in doubt, participate and learn first.
This is a great summary of the challenges of placing tech in the overarching org and the unintended outcomes of some typical org structures.
One possible solution is to let the eng and product org publish and share the same objectives - creating alignment of their incentives to foster closely collaboration.
I think, Apple will follow the same pattern we see in the iPhone chips, we'll get an upgrade every year. TBH, it seems simple to expect a 20% performance increase at minimal, they can just add more cores :) j/k.
