  • Apple being sued because two-factor authentication on an iPhone or Mac takes too much time...

    Can someone explain this to me?  It requires less than a minute of time over the course of a year...

  • Hololens creator Avi Bar-Zeev departs Apple's AR headset team

    Based on Apple’s current state of technology, I still expect this 2020/2021.  

    As far as competition, no off the shelf processors are going to work well.  Battery constraints will keep Google/everyone from processing in the cloud, even with 5G.  Reducing latency (Lag) will require custom CPU, GPU, neural capabilities, machine learning, custom cameras, and a high speed extremely efficient cloud database system.  Good thing Apple has all of that.

    Most importantly, will the product be something you actually want to wear?  That’s where Apple can win, optimization and miniaturization.

  • Hololens creator Avi Bar-Zeev departs Apple's AR headset team

    Most likely finished with mapping the hardware and software for Apple.  They’ve been playing with the interface and feature layout in VR setups, so they don’t need him on that.  Hardware is all custom silicon and specialty cameras/sensors, which is the easy part.  Apple is only waiting on their screen and battery tech.  I expect the new battery hire from Samsung to assimilate solid state lithium batteries, greater energy density and unlike lithium-ion, actually safe.  I recall recent developments have made this technology affordable for electronic devices.

  • Apple's 'experiential retail' success lies in improving a customer's life claims Angela Ah...

    This woman makes $100 of millions, dresses in thousand dollar outfits and has made no material changes to Apple retail since Ron Johnson. And, Apple retail employees still make lousy wages. Remind me how she is deserving of this? She is simply the token woman at Apple.
    I see that you really only care to complain about someone you obviously know nothing about.  If you ever feel the desire to grow as a sentient being, watch her TED talk, you might learn something.

  • Hands on with Brilliant's smart home controller and how HomeKit will integrate

    I have an Apple Watch, iPhone, HomePod, Computer and iPad. When I talk to Siri only one of these devices takes my command (usually HomePod) even though some of the other devices (eg, iPhone) flicker indicating that they hear me. If I get the Brilliant Touchscreen and try to use voice control with it, will it play nice by letting another device take the action, or will it play poorly by always duplicating the voice command I give?
    It’s Friday and I’m exhausted, so forgive me for not researching.  If I recall, Brilliant will support HomeKit, not native Siri, so you will still use your devices.
