Apple could bring long-distance wireless charging to iPhone, iPad as soon as 2017

Do you have any proof for that statement? I doubt you have evaluated any possible design of a wireless charging system. Pretty low losses over large distances have been shown with laser transmitted power, for example. And, did you even consider particle beams? Sure, it's quite likely not what Apple is going for, but that's beside the point here.
"Any" is a pretty big word. I can clearly tell you're not an inventor cnocbui. -
F.lux says it is 'original innovator' of nighttime display color tech, asks Apple to open Night Shi
Oh, come on. The effect of blue and red light on alertness has been well known for decades. What f.lux is doing is trivial, and not some rocket-science innovation to get upset about …and there's certainly no research that they've done on this topic.
I myself have been switching the color settings on my Macs to accomodate for this for more than 10 years now (way before f.lux). A simple AppleScript that automatically switches Display Profiles by time of day. Sure, you can add some bells and whistles but the idea is exactly the same. I welcome Apple's move to add this to the system as a pure convenience factor.
