Daniel was quite right about something that he stated about the Samsung / Apple case. Both parties were required to trim the number of patents involved, and now, Samsung is stating that Apple only has the "corners" and "screen" patents that will be the basis for Lower Court to adjust the award based on whatever new methodology and instructions that the Supreme Court will provide to the Lower Courts in June.

In essence, the legal system is so fucking slow to resolve patent infringements that Samsung will never owe a fraction of what it should be penalized for copying what was an obvious disruption that the iPhone created in the industry. That said, if Samsung had spent a fraction of the effort building the machine that Apple has created for product development, instead of copying and throwing features into their phones to see what sticks, they wouldn't be in the situation that they are now with the Note 7.

I was a little surprised that DED didn't have an article in response to Walt Mossberg's piece on theVerge critical of SIRI.
Especially after his June article "

WWDC 2016: Apple's Siri and the future of voice vs. Amazon's Alexa Echo, Google Now, Microsoft Cortana"

While Apple has opened it up to Apps. It still doesn't seem as good as google . Maybe not as good as Alexa.
it will be interesting to see it the Google Assistant is a strong enough feature that it actually sells the Pixel.
Google has a long, long way to go show they really support their products. Maybe the will be lucky because Of Samsung 's problems.

unfortunately I've decided Siri only gets fixed and works if your name is Striesand or Mossberg.

All I'm saying is, it must be convenient to have Tim Cook's personal iPhone number in your contacts.
