    I'm seeing a lot of weird push back on folks buying the new MacBooks.

    Businesses need tools right?

    I assume you dont run up to your mechanic and berate them for buying an expensive lift when you take your car in for service?

    Apple sells them as lifestyle purchases, so I think what people are actually upset about is that someone else gets to buy that lifestyle that isn't them.

      It wouldn't be a proper Apple reveal without a little gnashing of teeth!

      Honestly, its probably short for whatever gets someone to buy it.

      I thought "pro" was short for "prosumer" -- a professional consumer

      I mean I assume pro stands for "Getting paid to use this" ๐Ÿคฃ

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
