Comment Re:Tim Cook doesn't understand the Law (Score 1) 348

Are you familiar with the law? It doesn't define best interest. Not all shareholders a motivated purely by profit. Those that are motivated as such had an opportunity to vote him out of power (the law is on their side for that), but they couldn't garner enough interest.

Actually, ALL shareholders are motivated purely by profit. Think I'm wrong? Apple has enough surplus cash to indulge in such ventures. What if Apple posted a $10B loss? Think such money sinks would still be funded? Yes, willingly paying a premium for energy is a money sink.

If Apple was losing money, all of their shareholders would be concerned. Don't be fooled into thinking they wouldn't be.

Comment Cook said it because Apple is rolling in cash (Score 1) 348

You best believe that if Apple was limping along financially then they wouldn't have splurged on such green energy ventures. Don't misunderstand me. Apple has the cash and they can spend it as they wish. But Cook is making a moral argument and it's only the success of the iPhone/iPad that allows him to do so.

Comment Re:Joke? (Score 2) 421

I put in my application for Google Glass as a joke.

I don't think you understand what a "joke" is. Unless, that is, the information you supplied on the application is funny in some way.

I don't think you understand what "doing something for a joke" is. Actually I think you do, but you're being deliberately obtuse so you could follow up with that idiotic following sentence.

Comment Re:Maybe most women don't want to go into tech (Score 1) 545

Is it social bias or is it just the way things are? Building toys that boys like and marketing them to boys isn't "social bias." Same things with toys for girls. The whole bullshit about "social bias" is that boys and girls are equal in every way and think, act, and prefer in the exact same way until "society" forces blue on boys and pink on girls. Total bullshit.
