I’m not the maths, but how is a tick over 30% “nearly double”? 

Because 19 billion is nearly double 10.3 billion...

I think the only issue I still have in Catalina that I can't seem to nail down is Safari will stop loading pages occasionally. Usually easily fixed by  quitting and reopening Safari, but occasionally requires a reboot. Doesn't happen often, but kind of annoying. Anyone else see this? 

Yes - I have had the same problem, at random times. Opening Brave or Tor browser and the pages will open fine... reboot seems most reliable fix.


Hopefully this update might relate to it - update not available yet, and yes clicked on that link above. I can see the Catalina hyperlink but click on that link and get taken to Beta releases... 

some more detailed info on this thing here
https://www.pcworld.com/article/3570156/microsoft-surface-duo-android-specs-features-display-price-release.html

“ The Surface Slim Pen, which seems central to the experience, costs extra and can't be stored on the device. The Duo also doesn’t support 5G, Wi-Fi 6, nor will it have an NFC chip for contactless payments.”

and no external display at all for notification/call display, and no wireless charging.

Good grief....

” The report confirms that between 180GB and 34 terabytes of information were leaked, but the investigators still can't be more precise because of inadequate security on the systems involved”.

Laugh in despair or cry?

Any app made in a day could have been made in Excel, PowerPoint, or HTML.

Nonsense.

Their app replaced a piece of paper

They replaced it with a multi-usr networked relational database application which could be accessed from computers and mobile devices, instead of a piece of paper hanging on the wall of a single room.

Or they could have scanned the piece of paper to PDF and put it on a free dropbox account for anyone to access from computers or mobile devices - and call it a multi user networked flow chart.

Then make an electronic flowchart for free on Word or Powerpoint with no coding at all and put it on a network drive, as the electronic document is easier to modify...

A one-piece-of-paper decision tree would be simple enough to get going coded in Swift and distributed to ipads and phones then tidied up and given some bangs and whistles as time permits.
