In Your Pocket Link

This is the John Gruber I remember1 (emphasis mine):

To put that in context, the iPhone 5S beats my 2008 15-inch MacBook Pro by a small measure in the Sunspider benchmark (with the MacBook Pro running the latest Safari 6.1 beta). The iPhone 5S is, in some measures, computationally superior to the top-of-the-line MacBook Pro from just five years ago. In your fucking pocket.

This is the bit I don’t understand about the crap on the internet. How can so many people that love technology and look forward to our robot and jet pack future be so negative about innovation.


  1. Regular readers will know that I rarely link to John. That’s mostly because I assume there is no one that comes here that is not already reading Daring Fireball. But I do really like his work when he is at his best. ↩︎
