Some new ways to wrangle the utterly massive set of available emojis would be welcome. E.g. How about: the ability to pre-select a skin/hair/gender combination for all emojis that offer it, while also giving the option to hide the other types (avail…

The people who make these graphics don't know what is being released. You can rearrange those same pieces and get the word 'iCloud'

I like how developers get upset about the rule and attempt to outline it as some secretive policy. IT'S LITERALLY SECTION 1 ON THE APP STORE GUIDELINES. 1. SAFETY 1.1 Objectionable Content 1.1.4 Overtly sexual or pornographic material The fact th…

Spotify seem to be building Apple's defence for them. This is a perfect demonstration that they can indeed make their own platform.

Now if there were a series of app stores that developers could choose from, they could force the app stores to compete against each other, setting up the quality review and approval process to be a race to the bottom. Where the bottom is the removal…

Ditto, seems like Apple’s reliance on Nuance is long gone. I recall at least one keynote where apple discussed how they used machine learning to enhance their voice recognition tech. The curiosity is what microsoft would want with them, it’s not li…

Apple is a company of nearly 150,000 people. The views of one person talking about lock-in are largely irrelevant, you can probably find any talking point you want over that many people. Even if this was a view held by upper management persistently,…

You can buy a gun online. Why not vote too.

but what about devices with ridiculous 2nd screens that force the keyboard to take over the palm rest?

"We're focused on protecting people's data by working to get this data set taken down and will continue to aggressively go after malicious actors who misuse our tools wherever possible," Clark says. "While we can't always prevent data sets like thes…

I'm finding the latest iteration of autocorrect too heavily favours brand names and machine learnt alternatives regardless of proper context. Brand name E.g. A word that also happens to be a brand name can sometimes be capitalised, regardless of co…

smartburro said: You do recall correctly. The coordinated actions taken by Apple, Google and Amazon completely invalidated the “build your own platform” argument. And to answer your trivia question, I’m going to guess it was in the mid …

Change needs to come in small digestible pieces. A vague bill is almost always going to die because it opens the door to unintended consequences and a very real possibility of businesses not being able to adhere to the breadth of the requests. No ma…

Redmond start your photocopiers! It’s pretty hard for microsoft to discount apple’s products, when they’ve gone to comical lengths to copy them, including the iPad

Whether or not their actions are protected by the 1st amendment is irrelevant - it's an issue of breaching the terms of service. If this fool of a judge thinks invalidating the concept of terms and conditions is a good idea, then the bigger issue is…

No this doesn’t stop developers from monetising their free apps with targeted ads (this fundamentally misunderstands the current absurd reach of tracking.) It’s also not a “slippery slope”, or other conspiracy theories that try to paint this as som…
