So let's start with some follow-up.

Why did Chris Latner decide to leave Apple?

Last week we talked about this, and we tried to list all the reasons we could think of

why he might be leaving.

And I think we covered most of the major threads of speculation, and we didn't really get

a lot of listener feedback about it.

Anybody who did reply was mostly voting for one of the things we talked about.

But here's the thing on this topic. Unless there's some kind of like secret doomsday thing about

Apple that only Chris knows, it's not actually that important that we figure out like why he left

Apple or like what was in his heart of hearts, like aside from just us being busy bodies or just

wanting to know like gossip type stuff. And second, pragmatically speaking, this is just not the type of thing that people who leave Apple

talk about or, you know, if they do talk about it, it's like years and years later after

everyone no one cares anymore or, you know, like it's not a big deal.

So even if there was some deep dark reason, it's not like we would know about it until years

from now.

And honestly, the straightforward, boring explanation is probably the right one anyway. So even if there was some deep dark reason, it's not like we would know about it until years from now.

So, you know, I don't know.

What do you think, Chris?

That sounds about right to me, John.

Would you ever buy an electric car in white?

You are such a jerk.
