It's more about not having to perform a ritual before using the headset, like making sure the controllers are charged, and picking them up.
When you are holding controllers, you can't interact with the environment and people around you naturally, like how Apple showed it in the videos, before "reversing" the ritual.
Apple also wants users to plug it in and use it all day. You can't do that with the limit of controller battery.
At the end of the day, this is optional and hidden by default.
Compared to command + tab or exposé, this approach is more visual and direct, which seems to be a better fit for a form factor that offers much more screen real estate.
I guess this is the cost Apple is willing to pay to ease mac and ipad users into reality OS.
I signed up within the first few hours of beta announcement. Still haven't got it.
I understand they want to get it "right" before opening up to the majority, but project management isn't something a business can sit and wait. People have to use some other tool in the mean time, and once having invested time and effort they won't switch back easily.
I am stunned by the fact that such seemingly complex and beautiful patterns we could see in the nature[0] can be generated with simple and elegant code, when the coder is well-versed in math and data structure.
Gets me thinking: our sophisticated world is created using layers upon layers of derived probabilistic algorithms, and the top layer may well be just one simple algorithm.
If all he did was to not speak up, your argument is totally valid. But the truth is he actively tried to silent others by saying Daryl Morey was "misinformed and not educated on the situation", when nobody asked for his opinion about the matter.
It can be difficult to orchestrate years and layers of adjusted statistics to tell a consistent story.
Cities, provinces, and the central government all have their own agendas and different reasons to lie. They don't necessarily do cross checks before publishing their own data.
I am not sure about putting human lives as an operand in win/loss arithmetic, like some typical resource. China is not in a hot war.
