  • Apple concerned former employees accused of stealing 'Apple Car' trade secrets will flee b...

    America has essentially exported its tech industry to Indian and Chinese nationals. This is an inevitable consequence. I would say about ~5% of the Chinese tech employees in the Bay Area are spies.

    3 tour combat Marine here which I usually keep to myself but I find Apples pandering to murderous dictstorships as disgusting as Trumps. 
    We are supposed to be different. We are less and less. 
    Anything for a buck Apple?
    Do you recognized Puerto Rico as a territory of the US?

  • Apple Maps, Weather app now shows Crimea as Russian territory

    That's because it is Russian territory, whether or not you people recognize it. Countries are territories that political entities claim and rule by force.

    you mean apple will, right? because apple is the one being sexist here. it is their algorithm that they tailored to be sure to give women a subpar credit limit. all goldman sachs does is issue the card on apple's behalf, apple is the one doing all the work, they are a giant bank.

    If you're being serious with that post, you're an utter and complete moron. I'll never understand people who are so wrong, yet so confident. 
    It has to be sarcasm lol.

  • Google's upcoming 'Fuchsia' OS to support Apple's Swift language

    Honestly, after been studying and programming a bit in Swift, Apple still needs a better framework. It's still too complicated. The syntax is cleaner compared to Obj C++ but there is a lot of gotcha's to make an app work. It is still too verbose. 

    Why Apple still have not created a framework that use XHTML, JS, and CSS (like PhoneGap and Titanium) is a mystery. It would offer more stability, better protection, better compatibilty for the future and the past as well, and having the CSS would allow the apps to easily scale to resolutions without having to deal with bizarre constraints in Swift/Obj C++. In fact, I suspect if Apple just use pure XHTML, CSS, and JS, it would be a lot more efficient and more stable.  Programming with Swift is hard... if you code that is missing out something important but it seems to compile fine and you run it, it literally crash hard. It takes only one simple error to make it go all wrong. It's no wonder that apps keep getting updates. 


    Swift is significantly better than html/js/css. Almost everything you said it actually the opposite: it's much more stable than html/js/css, have unbelievably "better protection" and especially with the introduction of stack views, handles scaling much better. You simply need more experience. The point the app crashing at compile time is so it doesn't do so at runtime, which makes is much safer.
