Instead of “moving icons anywhere”, it would be more properly described as “leaving blank spaces where we use to require an icon“!

Loved this video deep dive of the M4 architecture:
If the M4 has finally moved to BIG Arm CPU cores that are never going to be used for mobile phones - how big does Apple want their desktop SoC‘s to be able to scale to?
If Apple are now allowing the CPU cores to use 50% more wattage per core (up to 30 Watts) will the Studio end up with a larger physical volume to allow the CPU & GPU to scale to being twice as fast as the M2 ULTRA and still be relatively quiet (to get rid of the additional heat)?
If Apple end up with a 1TB-2TB/s pipe between coherent GPUs - will it be enough to finally provide performance that is between a 4090 and Nvidia‘s next gen offering (but with far more memory on tap)?
If Apple are talking about ’new platforms’ later in the year - It likely means that Gurman is not aware of the hardware that is coming out in 2024…

I miss keynotes where there were things to be excited about.
Gonna have caffeine, sedatives, and Pepto-Bismol all ready. Depending how the keynote goes.
I for one am glad that the cult-of-personality type of live presentations, which started with Jobs and then other CEOs amongst the competitors copied, are long gone.
With the recent in-person presentations by Microsoft and Qualcomm (including Qualcomm's prior one a few months back) the feeling is like that of a religious cult, where the crowd is really there just to fluff the presenters. OpenAI is like that more than even Microsoft.
If one reads the title: World Wide DEVELOPERS Conference. There are a week-long roll out of informational videos for developers. You can download the Developer app to keep you up to date on these things. And now the Apple WWDC channel too.

That won't fix iPadOS, at least not as far as being a macOS replacement. It needs *real* multitasking. It needs to be a real general-purpose OS, not just an app platform. In other words, it needs to let the user break things and do unexpected (by Apple, and possibly by the user) things, as that leads to clever things and interesting things.
Essentially -- it'll never happen.
I'm very excited for WWDC. Sometimes the software events can be more exciting than the hardware events.
Same here. It gives me a reason to mess around with a new version of iOS before it's released globally. I'm more excited for this version since rumors say iOS 18 will be a complete overhaul with a new design. I haven't been this excited since iOS 7. That's TEN versions ago!
I’m just hoping that the fact that the announcement is in siri’s colors that it means it won’t disappoint again this year with just another new voice. It really needs to be heavily heavily focused on her, make her the concierge of our devices!
Notice how this artwork reminds one of this?
It was great in 2006, when it was in-person, and before WWDC became iPhoneDC.
The logo this year reminds me too much of WordArt, and leaves me with the impression that they've run out of ideas, or rushed the theme design this year. Let's hope that WWDC25 brings us back to some true creativity and hidden meanings in the logo.
This kind of captures the annual cycle we’ve had for the past decade or so of people thinking Apple might announce some form of macOS on iPad at WWDC:
Am I the only one hoping for updates to AppleTV (hardware and software)
Don't know, but I kind of aim to have as few boxes and cables as possible surrounding the TV. Would prefer exactly none 😎
The whole industry has moved back to them now as well, except Apple. I know for one I'll thrilled at seeing Apple Park flying around to music........again. It was a fun novelty at first but it really is stale now.
I get why they want aspects pre-recorded but I feel you could move to a hybrid where some announcements are on stage and you can then throw to some different speakers who are pre-recorded. Would help give the event a bit more of a buzz rather than the overproduced infomercial style they've become.

I prefer the pre-recorded ones tbh.. the in person keynotes were always so awkward and cringy.
