People, process, and technology. We can focus on the *device* but remember that to be effective, we also need to focus on the *people* (parents and kids!) and the *rules* on how you use them. Apple does have a lot of controls already. There may be q…

As the former COO I would say that the amazing logistics success was primarily his achievement. I would be reluctant to look at a direct causal relationship between number of days of delay and who's CEO. There are just too many other factors to draw…

Good detective work indeed but they're forming a narrative that maybe not everyone agrees with. It could be read as "planned obsolescence" but the actual story is more complex. Battery management makes sense and I would expect it. Notification makes…

Don't feed the trolls, people. Just click the Ignore option. While mods may not have that freedom, the rest of us who just came for comments and conversation do.

suddenly newton said: To any ornithologist: how do dimming of lights reduce the risk that migratory birds will strike the side of buildings? It seems counterintuitive. The reason buildings and other tall structures are lit at night (either en…

Clearly the biggest by far was when we spotted a definition that should've used a colon and instead had a semi-colon. Look, if you're into dictionary apps, you know this matters. What you definitely need to know is that an internet connection…

To anyone complaining that a simple test from Apple would have (should have) caught this: I'm confused. Connect to LTE and wifi. Obviously you'd prefer wifi over LTE but let's understand that if the WLAN doesn't have connectivity to the internet, th…

Quote: "The iPhone 8 has a different design than last year's iPhone 7, but the dimensions are very similar." I hadn't picked up on that. Besides a mm here and there, how is the design different? Even Apple is selling the same case for both mo…

Watch face as an antenna. I'm no engineer but that seems like some freaking advanced stuff.

I see this is turning into a referendum on "worthy" or effective orgs and causes. Just because this is publicized doesn't mean they haven't donated elsewhere such as Red Cross, other Houston recovery, etc. Donations this big do take a lot of time to…

Do you buy things from Amazon on your iOS device? This is a big deal, and will have wide repercussions for one of Apple's biggest obstacles in services and digital media sales. No offense intended. Yeah, I do buy things from Amazon from my iO…

Whole Foods' future seems like it's been a little unclear. This provides stability. I'm not a big fan of the prices but love (what I understand as) their emphasis on treating employees well, influencing the conversation about local, organic, seasona…
