    Wish the bloggers for AI would post some photos - can't watch it live, and just reading sentences is rather boring. Unsure if they can, tho, since one of them said they had to power down phones. 

    We're working on it. Dan is live at the event for us right now, but we're having problems with our liveblog provider at the moment, because of course we would.

  • Microsoft reveals VR & AR-focused Windows 10 'Creator's Update,' expected in early 2017

    Why can't Apple users ever compliment innovation from any company other than Apple. Granted this isn't innovation per say but it's a game changer for sure. I can just imagine how teachers, presenters, students, team leads, product managers, etc. can benefit from 3D in Paint and PowerPoint. It when it comes to VR/AR we are still in the early stages of it and the only way that it can get better is making products, selling them and, getting feedback on them for the next generation of it. If all tech companies were to never take risks then we'd never get innovation.
    I think the Surface Studio is a cool product. It's too expensive for your average consumer, but it is targeted at professionals not hobbyists. Price out a comparable cintiq and a decent enough PC to drive it and you're in the same ballpark.

    Plenty of questions up in the air still, like how well it works in the real world etc. But as a concept and design I think it's good.

    Orrrrr.... we could talk about this until it becomes East Coast vs West Coast 2016. Someone start thinking up hand gestures for Apple Music and Tidal.

  • Apple brings coding to the iPad with Swift Playground

    I guess I'm old and jaded. As a professional software developer I find it really hard to believe coding on the iPad will produce anything "real". Maybe it will give people a taste of breaking a problem down into steps, working with picky syntax, and introduce some other basic software production concepts. But compared to XCode, Eclipse, NetBeans, IntelliJ, and other "real" development environments, Swift Playground seems almost delusional.
    That's exactly the whole point of it, it's not meant as a replacement for your standard development environment. It's a learning tool for people who don't know anything about coding with a bend towards K12 and below.
