Alan Dye Comments on His Career Move in an Instagram Story

x.com/sdw/status/1996431428561822093?s=46

Straight/dumb quotation marks. Some default Instagram typeface. That period just hanging there, outside the closing quote. This is the post from the man who led Apple’s software design for a decade.

Not to mention the gall to use any quote from Steve Jobs, let alone this particular one, which is enshrined by Apple on the wall outside Town Hall at the old Infinite Loop campus in Cupertino, and provides the title for the splendid book published (in a delightful interactive version on the web, and in gorgeous limited print editions) by the Steve Jobs Archive and LoveFrom.

“Just figure out what’s next” for Alan Dye, after his supposedly wonderful accomplishments at Apple, is ... going to work for Meta? Jiminy H. Christ, that takes stones.

Talking to Alexa+ this morning, I do think it’s an improvement. More conversational. It took them a while from announcement to now to get there, but seems fairly solid to me. I would use Siri if it was that good.
