I don’t believe that this was a decision to prioritise form over function. Placing the power button, either on the back, or on the front, would look perfectly fine, in keeping with the Apple minimalist aesthetic. It appears that Apple are deliberate…

There is an unmistakable whiff of desperation in the efforts of these social media dudes.

Hazen said: What a sensationalist pile of bull crap. This is like when Apple introduced the first 5G iPhone and said that medical professionals could perform surgery from across the country which has never once happened. Hospitals buy all sor…

Hmm, a smart speaker from Apple, the computer company in Cupertino, California; or a smart speaker from the East German Stasi in East Berlin; or a smart speaker from the Russian KGB in Moscow? Decisions, decisions, decisions… Does the business mod…

Side note: I’m astonished to read about the ergonomic problems that surgeons (in the US, and everywhere else I presume) experience on the job. Back to the Apple Vision Pro: I suspect that, as it is still early days, the various devices are poorly …

Good points. Notes app is ever improving and has become essential to keep track of my work and interests. Its implementation of hashtags has been a masterstroke. On my 2019 iMac, I’ve noticed that when I paste a photo or something into a long note,…

Where do you champions of the little man get this b.s. idea that regulations “always favour big business”? It is patently not so. Much regulation is designed to reign in monopolies, i.e. favour small over big. Other, notable, forms of regulation are…
