#3What do you call this format of journalism?
This is not blogging or microblogging even. Dot-Pointalism? Very scattered and uninspiring format.
Seems like the same format for the whole website. Preparing for transition to completely AI written articles?

Personally I like it. To me reads like the raw facts that a longform news site would then take and spin into some narrative while adding thousands of more words. I don't care what the author's opinions are, and I don't want to read their spin. I just want the news, and this seems like a reasonable way to do that!
Granted even in this outline there's some opinions expressed, like calling Apple 'famously tight lipped.' That's about as true as an opinion could be, but it's still an opinion. A way to just get the falsifiable facts in news, without interjecting opinion, spin, or "analysis" is my ideal vision of news. For instance here's [1] a NYTimes article from 1912, about the sinking of the Titanic. Outside of superfluous comments about the Titanic's wireless operator, it's just the perfect news article.

This is actually the need of hour! With limited attention span of the new generation that is trained to swipe left/right/up/down in seconds, nobody is interested in reading lengthy articles. What they want is main points that they can skim through and get the gist of article. Sometimes i wonder why summarization services are not popular?

It's memo style.
We'd use a similar format and verbiage in the policy and business space as well. No fluff words, no pathos, just plain and simple facts, impact, and path forward.
A NYT article can take 5-10 minutes to read and provide marginal information to act upon but this style (which Reuters also uses to a certain extent because they have experimented with Machine Generated articles for decades) takes barely a minute and gives all the information that is needed

It stripped out all the context I wanted to see.
The article is hyper focused, and manages to say very little about what's going on.

I don't dislike the format, I dislike the content that's put into the format--it would be better in paragraph form. e.g.
• Such suits inevitably become uncomfortable for all parties, as happened in the recent battle between Apple and Fortnite maker Epic Games.
That's not a compelling point, it's fluff that could be used as padding in a paragraph with actual content.

#10Every day I hate those fuxkers more.
Today I learned that they disabled do not disturb until I set up “health” in iCloud.
I don’t wish to be forced to trust you with my PHI you dicks.
Especially because iCloud does not work properly if you choose not to pay extra for it. (Ask me how I know)
If you are a product manager at Apple please stop this bullshit.
