An optimistic guidance is good for Wall Street. It will just be easier to be disappointed, especially when growth will be just below guidance.

Time for Apple to stop using Samsung chip production. That will hit them where it hurts most.

I just wish Apple offered incremental updates for the built-in apps in legacy versions of iOS. At least security updates or fixes for crashes, e.g., Safari on iPad1 with Apple's very own Swift Developer blog page.

@solipsismy 02/11/2015 11:55 AM -- It is revolting to everyone with an engineering / exact science (hi school?) background, when you talk about 280 MW per hour. Please learn your units (Watts express power, WattHours express energy, W/h makes little…

One of Google's strategies is to trick iOS users to download their apps from the iOS appStore, e.g., by highlighting and putting in prominent places buttons that achieve this. The button for the logical (and most used) next step is often de-emphasiz…

I just hope IBM's new apps will get enough public exposure such that the average home consumer has an idea of what's available. The BYOD effect also emanated from the home user who preferred Apple hardware at home over what the IT people were trying…

1) True enough, my particular situation probably is of little interest, but actually, many Apple users (in particular the ones that own several iDevices) are in the same situation. They may only benefit from the new advances when the time comes th…

Well, what good is it to have an iCloud Drive on one device, while it'll take years before all my other iDevices will be replaced with new ones so they can take advantage of this feature? I am not that rich to renew my entire iDevice park at the w…

I for one am not going to be trapped by migrating my most recent device (a 2013 iMac) to iCloud Drive. Because I will lose compatibility with 2 iPhones, 2 iPads, and one appleTV. Why can't Apple just provide small incremental updates to older system…

Logging everything (and then allowing access to everything with or without out a warrant) is what got us this far. The warrant should only be valid for a restricted period (and should not be retroactive). Otherwise, no cigar. But the mere fact that …

Flash is dying. This may speed the process up. Yet, there still are lots of mostly-Flash websites around. Worse, some new Flash designs are still being created. The trouble is, all those Flash developers have known this for quite some time, but - …

It is somewhat disappointing that Swift leaves the SmallTalk syntax behind. I would have thought that Modern Obj-C take 2 would - resemble F-Script even more (do away with the bracket syntax for messages) - unify base types and classes (in F-Scrip…

On EU's behalf I would like to argue that many of the little regulations, some of which appear ridiculous and exaggerated, hence become news items --often out of context--, are part of a bigger plan to unify standards among a wildly diverse collecti…

Big omission: still no scanner sharing. (Apparently being a client to a scanner shared by another machine still seems supported). Is there any particular technical reason why scanner sharing disappeared from OSX? Does Apple really want us to buy O…
