This comment sums it up pretty nicely:

LOL innovative invention of swapping memory to storage…… maybe they can call it something cool like “cache”.

Apple being "innovative" my ass, lmao

The easiest way to tell that something's not really innovative is if the person describing it uses the word innovative.

Can you give an example of something that actually was innovative, that no-one called innovative?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The spoked wheel.

Interestingly, it looks as if nothing was really called innovative before 1960, with usage peaking in 2000, and its now in decline

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Peaking in 2000 seems odd - I see or hear that word daily and that definitely wasn't the case back in 2000. Interesting!
