That leads dry, and not in a good developer dry way. Is this what Think Different looks like today?

I liked last year's rainbow colored hello world https://web.archive.org/web/20170208203426/https://developer...

It could be a sign that apple is aware that it needs to return to their origins

That could be a bad sign. People are looking around the company and seeing rigidity in thought. It is becoming aspirational.
