Time Travel: 2014

Chapter 295: People sit on pots at home and come from the sky

Lin Hui tactfully expressed his doubts about the dispute between the two lines within Pingchun.

According to Elizabeth Nice, this matter actually has something to do with Lin Hui again.

Because of the game Lin Hui made not long ago, the underclocking scandal broke out in advance.

As a result, the original battle between the business elites and the technical purists within Apple has completely heated up.

Because before the launch of 5s, Apple's internal technical staff proposed using 2G of application memory on 5s, but executives rejected it.

As a result, the biggest culprit behind the underclocking scandal is the stingy RAM configuration of previous models.

This frequency reduction scandal brought very high losses to Apple and a loss of reputation.

(This is not an exaggeration. The impact of the previous frequency reduction scandal was very large.

Apple has paid a huge price globally)

And this tragedy could have been avoided.

In this case, the technician who had made the suggestion was undoubtedly furious.

Therefore, the original secret struggle between the two factions seems to be moving to the open side.

Lin Hui: (⊙﹏⊙)……

After hearing what Elizabeth Nishi said, Lin Hui was also helpless.

This person is sitting at home, and the pot comes from the sky.

Lin Hui had not expected this at all before.

From the words of Elizabeth Nyshe.

Lin Hui felt that it was true that Elizabeth Nice was dissatisfied with Cook.

But as for whether the differences within Pingchun are that serious, Lin Hui thinks it's hard to say.

Like a phone call story.

Pony crossed the river and asked different people.

The old cow said that the water was very shallow, but the squirrel said that the water was very deep and his companion drowned.

The same thing is measured differently in the eyes of different people.

It is better to inquire from multiple sources and make an objective judgment.

Maybe you can ask Huang Jing for news later.

If there is really such a big gap within Pingchun.

It's not necessarily a good thing.

If Lin Hui is strong enough.

Maybe we can use this opportunity to attract some talent from there.

But now, Lin Hui is not very attractive to the talents within Pingcheng, whether in terms of funds or personal charm.

If there is a crack at Apple, then these pure technical personnel may completely flow to technology giants such as Google.

Lin Hui chose the path of rising.

Whether it is the artificial intelligence that is about to be launched or the Fuchsia OS that is planned to be involved in the long term, Lin Hui and Google are destined to be enemies rather than friends.

A potentially more powerful opponent was not what Lin Hui wanted to see.

In short, Lin Hui felt that it would be better to have an unbroken Pingchun when he was just a fledgling.

Of course, in the long run, a divided Apple is better.

Having said that, it is a pity that many things are not entirely based on Lin Hui's will.

We can only take one step at a time.

Speaking of which, a game that Lin Hui conveniently carried had so many chain reactions when the space-time butterfly flapped its wings crazily.

This incident also reminded Lin Hui that he must speed up the planning of a dedicated think tank team.

This think tank team must have a certain ability to discern the development of short-term situations.

It can provide Lin Hui with sufficiently accurate analysis reports from multiple perspectives such as economics and culture.

In this way, Lin Hui can avoid a series of impacts that may be caused by information failure.

After complaining for a while, Elizabeth Nice gave Lin Hui a detailed introduction to the new features of the iOS8 version.

Because the iOS8 beta version has already appeared.

Therefore, when it comes to introducing some features of iOS8, Elizabeth Nish is not as restrained as when introducing hardware.

In fact, Lin Hui has been aware of the changes in iOS8 for a long time.

It is nothing more than supporting third-party input methods, improving the multi-tasking interface, innovating the notification center, etc.

The only ones worth mentioning may be the two functions of handoff and homekit.

The former involves multi-device collaboration, and the latter involves smart home.

If you want to say when did Apple officially start to make a big move into ecological construction?

That is undoubtedly this generation of Pingchun.

Those who win the ecology will win the world is not just talk.

Many people who use Apple devices are not necessarily fanatics, but are just constrained by the ecosystem.

This incident also reminded Lin Hui to be more cautious if he wanted to cause trouble against Pingchen.

If you wait a year or two before doing it.

Even if the ecological level built on Fuchsia OS or other systems is superior to the Apple ecosystem.

Users may not buy it, which involves some non-technical resistance.

The first resistance outside of these technologies is sunk costs.

Sunk costs refer to expenses that occurred in the past but are not relevant to current decisions.

When people decide whether to do something, they not only look at whether it is good for them, but also look at whether they have invested in it in the past.

These irrecoverable expenditures, such as time, money, energy, etc., are called "sunk costs".

When users spend too much money and time building Apple’s so-called ecosystem.

These things will trap users.

In short, if you want to do something, you must hurry up.

This is why Lin Hui is racing against time.

After that, the two people talked about some arrangements at the upcoming Apple Global Developers Conference.

Elizabeth Nice mentioned the awards for outstanding developers, the official launch of iOS8, etc.

But as the saying goes, listen not to what others say but to what they don’t say.

Lin Hui noticed that Elizabeth Nice mentioned a lot of things.

But there is no really important content mentioned.

——Swift language.

This was the real killer weapon at the 2014 Global Developers Conference in the previous life.

Although when he first saw the Swift language, Lin Hui once thought that this language was just a scripting language.

This is not Lin Hui’s fault. After all, Swift is indeed very similar to some scripts in many grammatical features.

Having said that, after learning more about it later.

Lin Hui also discovered that in Apple development, Swift does not run as a scripting language.

All Swift code will be compiled into native code by LLVM and run with extremely high efficiency.

In the previous life, the Swift language was developed by Apple and was intended to replace Objective-C.

Swift, like the original Objective-C, is a type-safe language. Variables and methods have clear returns, and variables need to be initialized before use.

In terms of grammar, Swift has migrated to a very advanced grammar system recognized by the industry.

It includes closures, multiple returns, generics and a lot of functional programming concepts. Functions can finally be saved as variables...

Compared with using objective-C, Lin Hui feels that the Swift language is easier to use.

(ps: ...the context of the novel does not correspond to reality. The language that can make you money is the easiest to use)

Ordinarily, the release of such a language should not be ignored by Elizabeth Nice.

Or is it that Apple is still deliberately keeping this language secret and is preparing to make big news when the time comes?

Let’s wait and see.
