i think the venn diagram of people who are shelling out for these watches and people who refuse to hone notification settings at all is not gonna show a huge amount of overlap either

actually i guess there are a buncha, like, mildly wealthy single dudes obsessed with status for whom their watch settings could represent an extension of self-upkeep, like, ok ordered belle epoque cigarette ad with most expensive frame: check, shaved pubes: check, hone my settings: check

i think there are a lot of dudes out there who have figured out how to turn off notifications they don't want to see with a relative lack of stress or work or thought!!

Has Ive’s work declined? My favorite work from both an iconic and engineering perspective:
1998 — iMac G31999 — iBook2000 — Power Mac G4 Cube2001 — iPod2002 — iMac G42003 — Power Mac G52007 — iPhone2008 — MacBook Air2010 — iPhone 4
Moreover, his worst work is his recent work (e.g. iPhone 5c, iOS 7, and iOS 8).

but yeah i fully own up to my series of posts on this topic being firmly in the long tradition of "hey apple, why didn't you design your products specifically for me?"

yeah that's like my wife complaining today about some problem she had with the phone's alarm and it came down to their defaulting to having snooze turned on

I would add:
1994 - MessagePad 1102001 - Non-clamshell iBook2001 - TiBook (not so much on the engineering side with all that flaking)
Definitely nothing like the big hits recently. And please god can we get a mac laptop that isn't brushed aluminium already?
