  • Some of my best friends are vegan. They gladly come over to my BBQs when I’m grilling a brisket or tri-tip, and I’ll always grill extra veggies for them. They don’t always talk about being vegan and don’t shame me for eating meat. Don’t rush to assume the entire group is bad because you’ve had a few bad experiences with them.


  • Can’t remember the full details of the deal, but I seem to recall a story about how Apple approached Intel to manufacture a low-powered processor for mobile (for the first iPhone). At the time, Intel didn’t see money in mobile processors and passed on the deal. Additionally, for years, Apple asked for more powerful chips for the MacBooks. At the time, the iPads were surpassing MacBooks in speed on some tasks. Finally, Apple decided that since they were already designing their own silicon for iPhones and iPads, they might as well just do the same for the MacBooks as well since Intel couldn’t keep up.

    Again, this is largely from memory. I can’t remember the source, so take it with a grain of salt.
