Hey Fanboys, Shut Your Face! (Rant)

2015-07-01
this episode of TechnoBuffalo is brought to you by domain.com what's up everyone John rende TechnoBuffalo here with another episode of retinues riff so this one might qualify more is a rant so a few weeks ago we saw Apple unveil its latest OS 10 dubbed El Capitan and there are some features that were very heavily influenced or taken completely from windows and we see things like that happen all the time we see google borrow from Apple Apple bar from Google Microsoft borrow from both and I read the comments and I see the debate that goes on I see a ton of people saying Apple did this first Google copy iOS copy this Android copied that I want to talk to you the folks that write those kind of things let me put you in a situation here let's say if ethically you run a business and you have a competitor who moved in right down the street that does pretty similar to what you do but those are just a little bit better and does something different that makes it better chances are you're gonna adapt your business model to do what they're doing and perhaps even do it one better than what they've done and that's all that's going on here if there's an opportunity to make your product better and say somebody else thought of it first that doesn't mean that you can't use it it is an absolutely asinine argument to yell at each other that Apple did this first iOS Android it blob of with my mind it makes you quite frankly sound a little bit like a little bit like you like a tiny pet a little bit like a pet things change companies borrow from one another patents are viola it's just the way things go in the world be happy that you OS your choosing it taking the best feature for another one it's such an asinine argument to say oh this was borrowed so if Apple came up with an idea that maybe Microsoft could never have anything similar Google could never have anything similar it just doesn't make sense from a business standpoint take yourself out of your fam bonus take that fanboy hat off for a minute and think about from a business standpoint why wouldn't a company want to take influence from those features if anything that's more of a compliment to the company or the OS that they're borrowing from it just doesn't make sense and the fact that you like an OS more than somebody else is doesn't shouldn't matter engine impact into the person's buying decision let people like what they like it doesn't impact you at all I see this happen all the time in our comments it just enrages me people don't think from a business standpoint think like you're running a business and and see how you would run things along the same lines of like Oh Apple is just trying to make money I want to say like no you're trying to make money they're a for-profit company no Google wants to make money they're a for-profit company that's what for-profit companies do they charge as much as they can do people will still buy it it's supply and demand curve they find where those things intersect and that's a price they charge if you don't them to charge it much money stop buying their stuff that will lower that down demand goes down the price is gonna go down Apple Microsoft any other business out there they're a for-profit business they need to make money to pay their staff to create giant golden parachutes for the executives they got a board director to report to you so before you start just typing and I'm sure you're gonna do the comments anyways but before you start typing just angry fanboy things think about how companies are run from a business standpoint and not from your own personal perspective that might help you appreciate this understanding where companies make decisions that they do we stop real fast and thank our peeps at domain.com

it's good for you consumer always wins ever this competition the consumers always been what never two companies are in similar space they bring each other up and that's always wonderful for the end user which is you it's me it's everybody else was watching this video and again before you yell about Apple or Google Microsoft charging you a lot of money for a phone you have a voice you don't have to buy their product and if that's sort of the way you want to go then you can speak with your wallet that's a decent way of trying get the company to make a policy change anyway thank you guys for
