wow that's lame merch
rvz•21m ago
As much as I am a fan of Woz on his technical achievements, at least he knows that he fell off out of relevancy when he launched / shilled a crypto coin and now goes out to sell (mediocre) merch. I respect that grift.

DF (daringfireball) however, continues to be increasingly so irrelevant that they sometimes veer off into unrelated Apple news to increase their clicks on their blog, without knowing it.

In fact, it makes sense. Apple cares more about X than they do about DF. Not even Apple cares about DF anymore ever since they didn't invite the author over to the HQ.

Woz still gets invited to the HQ to this day.

Wrong.

"For those of us invited to Apple Park, Ternus actually took the stage in person at 9:58 am, for a brief in-person greeting and introduction." https://daringfireball.net/2026/09/thoughts_and_observations...

Also, I'm not sure why you refer to Daring Fireball with the plural "they" when it's just John Gruber and nobody else.
