It seems the company behind this product has gone out of business and the product itself is no longer sold (their e-commerce site is still up, but the shop is empty)? Which is a bu…

I was quite surprised by this discrepancy as well (my new iPhone has 7, but the new MBP does not). I had just assumed that for sure this would be the year I upgrade my M1 Max MBP t…

This is really exciting to see for me personally. I've been pushing over the past six months or so for multiple clients, from healthcare companies with basic mobile apps to deep ga…

I think yours is a fair opinion as well, to be clear - I actually debated editing him out for a couple of minutes after I first posted, because I do know that his background was tr…

This is helpful context as well, in addition to doomlaser's explanation of his background re: IBM and Red Hat. Thanks for sharing it. I wonder to what extent Silver Lake drove this…

I agree! I posted before that comment, which was definitely helpful - that context (and some other helpful replies here and elsewhere in the overall thread) have changed my assessm…

I agree - this may be unclear phrasing on my part. What I meant in my original comment was, "wow, this seems like a hire that is only focused on finding someone with lots of experi…

Agreed - the reaffirmation of guidance almost felt to me like a "seriously guys, why are we down 22% up front, you know this doesn't impact short-term revenue..." which... definite…

Yeah, I think this could definitely be one explanation. Other commenters in the thread have also given good thoughts / potential scenarios in similar veins - essentially that this …

I really appreciate you taking the time to provide this context! Intuitively I had a rough idea around why this was both a) a blocking issue ("why can't we just YOLO-try some versi…
