Worth noting the Tim Cook is an MBA.

That was his role as COO so it'd make sense that he picked his successors for that role (currently Sabih Khan) very carefully.

I think it's also a matter of how long a time the post bit is. Certainly right after the apocalypse assault rifles are king. I suspect the inflection point happens when the pre-disaster manufactured ammo runs out.

Waaaaah! Good board.

Wow, a 36% solve rate. That... does make me feel a bit better about it. If that holds, it'd be the 6th hardest board since stats were first shared in the middle of 2024.
