Apple announced today that it will spend $500 billion and hire 20,000 people in the U.S. over the next four years. Now when have we heard that before? A few weeks ago, when the Stargate Project group announced exactly the same amount of money over the exact same time frame. And in January 2018, during President Trump's first term, when Apple promised $350 billion and 20,000 jobs. nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqplvue5rf56cwxn7hph4xp5s8c6y7tpwfkxg7qfumsudjc62ahrsshewlch writes for his newsletter, Spyglass, about the art of the (old) deal. "My point is that, big numbers aside, I wouldn't read too much into this announcement other than it's Tim Apple trying to use an old trick to get something quite tangible with Trump (perhaps a few things)."
