> but everyone I’ve spoken to is happy — if not downright giddy — at the news that Lemay is replacing Dye.

Count me in.

I really have to wonder who Gruber’s sources are.

His statement “prior to today never heard much about [Steve Lemay]” leads me to think he doesn’t have intimate access to anyone deeply familiar with design decisions, because anyone who’s spent a little bit of time behind closed doors in that space absolutely knows who Lemay is.

But then he quotes sources who are supposedly “in a position to know the choices”, which would imply they are quite embedded in the design org…

Maybe it’s all voluntary misdirection on his behalf.

My favorite reaction to today’s news is this one-liner from a guy on Twitter/X: “The average IQ of both companies has increased.”

My friend, that was NZ prime minister Robert Muldoon who was quoted as saying “every time a New Zealander emigrates to sun themselves on the beaches of Bondi, the average IQ of both countries increases.”

> Putting Alan Dye in charge of user interface design was the one big mistake Jony Ive made as Apple’s Chief Design Officer.
