Probably no...Don't know if it was the same guy. Probably not.<br /><br />And yes, I think--if nothing else--that documentation and transparency was thinking different. Perhaps, it's unfair for Daisey to say it wasn't (or to even mention it).<br /><br />That said, it's not like that documentation and transparency was--so far as I know--ever discussed publicly by Jobs or Apple (you know, in a hey everybody, look at what we're doing kind of way!).<br /><br />Still, it's worthwhile to point out these practices are going on, that they did go on while Jobs was around, and that, for whatever reason, it's up to us/someone else to push the agenda further--from documentation to some kind of reconfiguration. <br /><br />In the meantime, what Daisey said in another article--about buying second-hand items, holding out on updating every cycle--are small, but thoughtful things to do to reduce the amount of demand on the system. If enough people did that (which they won't) it might make a difference.chris kammerudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04141499605179239464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4397434386500604903.post-10357289170655112582011-10-14T10:37:59.292+09:002011-10-14T10:37:59.292+09:00wow, this is good. i read the suicides story in wi...wow, this is good. i read the suicides story in wired a while back.. i don't suppose this guy wrote that? there is, usually, a limit to the amount of change that one person can do, and it is always just short of what people notice should have been possible for them to do. not saying that horrible labor practices are ok. we should be more aware of how our tech is made. but transparency and documentation of said practices, is, i believe, doing something a little differently.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14350590608692410944noreply@blogger.com
