What you didn't know about Apple.

Did you

know

that almost all Apple promotional images show the time 9:41 a.m. m., time when Steve Jobs introduced the original iPhone? Apple is a really unusual company, so welcome to my top 60 things you should

know

about them. Let's start with the strangeness that actually exists. A clause in Apple's current Terms and Conditions that specifies that its products are not allowed to be used to build nuclear missiles or biological weapons is good to know, and on the topic of weapons, multiple tests and videos have shown that the way it is build the MacBook is can stop bullets in their tracks.

I wouldn't recommend testing that theory, but something that unfortunately a lot of people have proven is that smoking around Apple equipment can technically void your warranty. Cigarettes contain nicotine, and because nicotine is technically classified as dangerous, Apple won. It doesn't force its employees to expose themselves to it, so even if something breaks, they have been known to refuse repairs. Oh yeah, and a big thank you to Surf Shark VPN for sponsoring this video. Well, we all know that Apple is rich, but it is difficult to conceptualize. how rich it is, to give you an idea, the company makes more than $300,000 in revenue per minute;

In fact, in 2011, Apple surpassed the US government in terms of cash on hand and

what

I think is even more impressive is that if you took Apple's current net worth and donated it, you could give every human being in the world planet more than $100. Here's a more real example of the great value that Apple originally had with three co-founders and it's a bit of a tragic story because although you've probably heard of Steve. Jobs and Steve Wozniak, who is trapped in the company, there was a third guy, Ronald Wayne, the reason he is a little less known is that he left the company after only 12 days selling his entire stake in Apple for $800, which sounds good, but if he had retained Plus, he would be worth over 30 billion.

Now it wasn't always like this. Apple had a pretty rocky start. Money was so tight that Jobs sold his car and Niak had to sell his scientific calculator just to get the funds there were. There have been many theories about the origin of the brand name. I've heard everything from scientific to biblical, but it turns out that Steve Jobs was on an all-fruit diet at the time and had an equally unexpected liking for

apple

s and his logo. It began as an image of Isaac Newton sitting under a tree. This brand now known for its contemporary and minimalist presentation used to be represented by this.

It symbolizes the story of Newton discovering gravity by watching an

apple

fall from a tree. Just one year later. that changed to something much more familiar and to start with they had this kind of rainbow to reflect that their computer was the first to have a color screen and it was a bite that they took from the Apple for no other reason than just to make it clear that it was in fact an apple and not a tomato or some other type of rounded fruit, but the company wasn't done yet, this logo went through several iterations before arriving at

what

we have now, essentially it gets simpler over time, you may already you have done it.

I was able to glimpse this, but in some ways Apple is crazy when it comes to attention to detail, they have really particular ways of doing things, even if they are far from the easiest, for example the flower animated wallpapers that you see on the Apple Watch and then everything. Computer-generated Apple spent hundreds of hours forming real flowers that bloom over time. Another example would be in iOS 6. Apple introduced metal buttons that would reflect light differently depending on the angle at which the fern was facing. Both Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak before they were Apple, they really worked. together in a game development company called Atari and in fact you see traces of this in Apple products with the first iPod, there was a hidden easter egg where you could play the game, a development developed by these two guys in their latest work and talking about the iPod: this was a product that went through many stages of development, many different shapes and sizes, and when the first iPod prototype was given to Steve Jobs, he dropped it in an aquarium and used the air bubbles results to show that there was still room. inside the iPod and which could technically be made smaller if by the way you enjoy straight up tech content like this a sub would be awesome.

We will try to reach three million by the end of the year. You've probably heard of Siri, and you probably also strongly associate Siri with Apple. This was almost not the case. Siri was actually released as a standalone app in Apple's App Store and was originally planned to come to both Android and Blackberry, until Apple intercepted this. By acquiring Siri and building it exclusively on your own devices, the voice of Siri ended up being a lady named Susan Bennett, but it was almost Jeff Goldblum, an actor famous for his roles in a lot of movies, and he's also kind of a massive meme .

At this point, Apple has also had some interesting projects: it was one of the first in the world to make a color digital camera at a time when people took pictures and were used to waiting a whole week before being able to see them. they would develop that this was a huge thing they developed a game console called Pippin it's surprising that we're talking about a $600 box where your current smartphone could well be 10,000 times more powerful than it is actually stranger Apple released a clothing line and if that wasn't weird enough take a look at how the Apple collection actually turned out, as they called it, it was a whole set of crazy looking clothing released in 1986 and to be fair it might have been in style in that moment maybe. but this is not even the strangest thing, that the prize goes to the city or the 20th anniversary Macintosh in today's terms, this would be almost like the Mac Pro Pro, they cost $7,500, which in 1997 was a lot of money and it was not as the ultimate machine, but it would be personally delivered in a limousine and set up by a man dressed in a tuxedo.

If you knew them and were a bit of an Apple fan, you might also remember that early Apple laptops used to display the logo upside down. down when you open them and this, believe it or not, was actually done to avoid confusion. Most people who hadn't used an Apple laptop would try to open them upside down from the Apple dock. The company finally relented and flipped the logo because, let's face it, it looks pretty strange, and speaking of MacBooks, the command key you see on Apple keyboards has a pretty strange symbol, but it turns out it's actually taken from a sign.

Swedish traffic which means a place of interest anyway. 2007 The iPhone is introduced, but you may not have known that the trademark for iPhone and iOS was actually not owned by Apple but by a networking company called Cisco and Apple has been paying them for a license and similarly for the years. last 10 years Apple. Ashley lost the rights to use the iPhone brand in Brazil. Turns out there was already a company there called gradient. I could have said it wrong, but they had their own line of iPhones and although Apple was allowed to sell the iPhone in Brazil, they did not.

I don't have exclusive rights to use the name, what's even more interesting is that the iPhone shown on stage had a plastic screen. Only after the announcement did Steve Jobs pick up this phone, look at the screen and realize it had scratches, he said. The equipment for when this phone is released has to be glass and in a strange way this was the birth of Gorilla Glass as we know it. The Corning company had developed this technology, this durable glass 40 years ago, but it had barely been sitting around. on a show because they

didn

't use it until the iPhone, another really interesting thing about this first phone was that it wasn't leaked when Steve Jobs announced the iPhone, the world was really taken aback and the reason is how seriously Apple took the secret internally , it was given the codename m-68 and Apple made sure that the hardware engineers never sold this software and that the software engineers never saw the hardware instead of handing out prototype phones for testing.

Apple handed out developer boards that just held everything. iPhone components, you could plug this board into iTunes and it would be chosen as an iPhone, that's pretty cool, but let's take a step back because Apple's first technically smart phone was actually conceptualized long before 2007. Initial mockups already in 1983 detailed a A landline phone with smart functionality, like a phone and an iPad joined together, never ended up seeing the light of day, but the idea was pretty ahead of its time. The price of Apple products varies greatly depending on the region you live in, partly due to import duties. taxes and probably in part also due to the company's choice, this meant that while the iPhone 10s max last year cost $1250 in the US for the 256 gig model, it ended up costing over $1700 in India and around 2000 in Brazil. up to 75 elements, that is, two thirds of the entire periodic table or elements known to men, so it is not entirely surprising that inside an iPhone you have small amounts of gold, silver and platinum.

This is a bit morbid, but the way Touch ID works is through capacitive technology by utilizing the fact that our bodies conduct electricity, meaning that a dead person's hand or just a 3D model couldn't unlock one of these phones, even if the fingerprint itself matched, but it does work on the optical scanners that we see built into many phone screens now there is a lot to be said about Steve Jobs, in a sense as the figurehead of Apple; he was labeled everything from a visionary and a genius to a pretty difficult guy to work with. At one point he was cornered into leaving Apple, the very company he had helped build, but at the time, after leaving Steve Jobs, he did two incredible things: He helped finance a small computer graphics company known as Graphics Group in that moment, but this later.

He became known as Pixar and partly through his financing they created Toy Story. The second thing was that jobs created a whole new computer company called next and it was only a matter of time before Apple ended up buying this company, which brought jobs back to Apple. Steve was also known for being a bit quirky, as is tradition at the company that hands out employee numbers to every person who works there, but with Apple Jobs reportedly took offense because he was given the number two employee tag, while Wozniak got number one and therefore refused to take second place. violin requested that his number be changed to employee number zero jobs also had a great eye for detail called Google's VP of engineering on a Sunday morning just to tell him that he had noticed the yellow color in the second Oh at Google he was a little bad on his iPhone and for Google to fix it as soon as possible for much of his time at Apple Steve Jobs only received a salary of $1 per year, he was so committed to the company's success that he decided to leave millions inside Apple.

Instead of taking it for himself and instead just banking on earning from the shares he had in the company, you may have also noticed that this guy almost always wore the exact same turtleneck he was supposedly inspired by. at Sony, which had a strict uniform policy. and Jobs wanted to introduce this at Apple after being booed off stage for even suggesting the idea, he decided to at least have a consistent image for himself, but Jobs would soon be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and it's terrible to have Tim Cook as current . The CEO at the time he was tested discovered that his blood type matched Steve's and offered to donate a portion of his liver, but Steve declined and he later passed away in October 2011, the day after The iPhone 4s will be announced.

It brings us to Steve Wozniak, who on paper reported only two jobs, so after Steve's death, Wozniak could naturally be fired from the company, but he also had a difficult past. Wozniak was involved in a plane crash while at Apple and had some pretty significant head injuries. meaning that his short-term memory of him was almost erased, luckily he finally recovered now. Apple's first product was not a smartphone, it was not an iPod, as many people believe, it was a computer called Apple. Its selling point is the fact that it came pre-assembled unlike most computers at the time and what's a little crazy is that this thing came with a single one megahertz chip inside, which is one thousandth than what a gigahertz is for Apple for its successor, when it is completely crazy, this is the product that put Apple on the map completely changed the rules of the game, but with this instant success it seems that Apple isgot carried away a little.

Apple 3 was a complete failure in the quest for a silent PC. It was built without air vents, causing each unit sold to overheat one of the The only technology products where the entire first batch had a 100% failure rate, a few years later we had the Macintosh, which is now has reduced to Mac, but this still carried the Apple issue. Macintosh without the letter A is really just a variety of the fruit and this Macintosh was actually one of the first computers to ship with a mouse, so Apple intentionally built the keyboard to have no arrow keys, which would force both users to get used to it and developers to design software that was built specifically for the Mac and to give you a little context on how much we've evolved since then, the microcontroller inside the charger that you get with a new MacBook Pro that it is only used to monitor current and voltage and is as powerful as the All Macintosh, Apple and Samsung, even with all their history of suing each other, are quite codependent.

You may know that the OLED displays we've seen on some iPhones come from Samsung, which is just one example of many, but it's good for Apple because they're getting a high-quality display and it's good for Samsung because it's fueling their display business, but only I want to address a small misconception I've seen about this: it's true that Samsung makes these OLED displays for Apple, but it's not a case that Apple is simply buying a Samsung panel off the shelf. Samsung would build these OLED displays but to Apple's specifications and using Apple's quality control, so Apple would still fully own the display and it's not like Samsung could just use the same panel that you probably know Apple products have a famously satisfying unboxing experience Well, it turns out that the company has at least one secret packaging room where, for each upcoming product, dozens and sometimes hundreds of prototype boxes are tested to make sure they provide the right sensory experience, from the acceleration of the lid when removed to the direction in which The opening of seals on phones is taken into account in Tim Cook, the current CEO, although he was not there from the beginning, he had a fairly meteoric rise.

He came from a very modest family and began his working life delivering newspapers and even today he is known for his dedication to the cause and sending emails at 4:30 in the morning. He may know that a good portion of Apple products are made in China and from here there are two main ways to ship them around the world. Companies use ships, but Apple almost exclusively ships its products by air because it is faster, although it can be up to ten times more expensive. It's not easy to work for Apple when the company's flagship store opened in Manhattan, they had 10,000 applicants for a job, you know, but they actually accepted 200, which is a two percent acceptance rate that they said in 2013.

An average Apple corporate employee made over $120,000 a year now, probably my favorite fact of all the ones I mentioned above is that Apple has traditionally shown off new iPhones over time at 9:41 but besides the fact that that was when released the original iPhone, there's a bigger reason why Apple launch events often start at 9:00 a.m. m. and the reveal of the phone occurs about 40 minutes after the presentation works insisted that the time shown on the phone screen when it was announced should completely match the actual time with an extra minute just to give breathing room. It's the kind of attention to detail you don't see in many companies.

Sir Shark VPN is a pretty incredible value and listen up. For this you pay one dollar ninety-nine a month and that gives you unlimited simultaneous connections.
