Tesla iOS app update lets you ask Siri to lock the doors
Oh, I guess we can't comment unless we own a Tesla? Thanks for letting us know Neoncat.

Apple's live events are probably a thing of the past, and that's sad
I enjoyed the live presentations of yesteryear. However, as a developer, I find the pre-recorded videos much more educational and informative. This is by far the best way to bring developers up-to-speed on new technology and APIs, and that's the main points of WWDC.

Apple employees face reprisals, possible termination over return to office policy
Yeah, I work in an open office. It's a room with 30-40 people wearing headphones all day. Morale sucks, and nobody communicates unless they have to. What an awful idea.foregoneconclusion said:LOL at the people who think the office environment is somehow devoid of distractions. The big craze in the corporate world was to go back to "open offices" where absolutely everything becomes a distraction. -

The ONLY judge of "productivity" is the immediate manager of the employee. Having a corporate-wide mandate prevents the immediate managers from making decisions that are good for their team.heyheyitsbigk said:

"There is zero doubt productivity from remote work is way down." Do you have any evidence whatsoever to support that claim? Please show us. I'll wait.johnwhite1001 said:It is nice to see Apple to clamp down on lazy employees. There is zero doubt productivity from remote work is way down. Multiple companies have data to show it. Thats why the push to get people back in the office. I have run into several Apple employees in the Coffee Shop at 1030 doing nothing. Software quality is WAAAAY down. Time to actually do some work.
I worked for a high tech company for 20 years, and then the pandemic sent us all home. I got far more work done at home.
