Facebook issues memo on Apple Enterprise Certificate fiasco as employees vent frustration
Like many, I have Apple Enterprise credentials and they couldn't make it more clear that it's not intended for app distribution outside of a company. I'm astonished Facebook was doing this - time to get some grownups in to help run that company.

Genius Bar doesn't hire retired Apple engineer, fires up age discrimination debate
If I could give this comment more than one "like" I would. Well said.Rocket_Man said:It's depressing to see how many commenters just assume that J.K. Scheinberg must have been less qualified or technically adept than younger hires, or that he was over-qualified, or that he must have given a "worse interview, or that he "just didn't 'fit'." One commenter, perhaps emboldened by anonymity, even had the audacity to libel Mr. Scheinberg, suggesting that he was not "looking to WORK" and was, instead, just "looking for a paycheck to coast on til retirement." Did any of you who posted those comments meet Mr. Scheinberg? Did you sit in on his interview? Did you check out his references? Did you read his resume and those of the younger people who were hired? Did you talk to the people who made the hiring decisions for the store? I bet that most of you didn't even click the link to the NY Times article, much less read it before posting your comments. What motivates some people to claim that every allegation of employment discrimination, whether based on gender, race, religion, or sexuality, simply *must* be without merit -- despite all of the statistical and peer reviewed research that proves such discrimination exists and harms so many people?

Apple plans to expand AirDrop time limit to customers worldwide
This, AirDrop’s been very useful over the years. I also need to set it to “everyone”ihatescreennames said:Admittedly, I haven’t tried lately, but whenever I set AirDrop to “Contacts Only” it never worked. It only worked for me when set to “Everyone”. As such, I leave it on “Everyone” and don’t have issues. I use AirDrop frequently, too, and really like it.

SiriGPT: Apple's chiefs hope to add full chatbot functionality to Siri, eventually
Suggestion for Apple: don’t talk about AI plans, first enact them then surprise us all with a beta release. Last year’s WWDC AI announcements looked like vaporware. Just do it.

Hands on: Using the iPhone as a webcam with iOS 16 and macOS Ventura
Apple should hold a WWDC every few years and not feel the need to update MacOS or iOS every year - I thought yesterdays keynote RE: iOS and MacOS was pretty lame - the iPhone as a webcam is symptomatic of this. -

Blocking ad tracking will “impair COVID-19 recovery”

Apple stuck the Mac mini power button on the bottom
Magic Mouse power input location is no longer the dumbest design decision Apple has made.

Apple's Magic Mouse charging port design has never been a big deal
This. It's an asinine design decision, but fanboys go ahead, Apple, of course, is incapable of bad design.NEO_STEPHENS said:The Apple Apologist in full effect. If that was ANY other company that did that, you'd be talking about how bad of a design it was and who in the world would put the charging port on the bottom of a mouse so that you can't use it while it's charging.
Doesn't matter how often or not it needs charging, still an awful way to do that!! -
Apple Intelligence impresses now, and it's still very early
noun: vapourware; noun: vaporware- software or hardware that has been advertised but is not yet available to buy, either because it is only a concept or because it is still being written or designed.
