Why don't they just bold the domain? Chrome sort of grays the rest of the URL, but the difference isn't stark enough.

Monitors are getting large enough for many to be productive using just one. A single monitor can also help one be more productive by not having always-on distractions in your periphery. Putting the inbox away is a very effective way to be p

The processing gains are very impressive, though. If it was only 2x as fast, I'd agree with you... but 10x in some cases?! That's worth fragmenting. Is this really much different than programming for a console?

I think this is a great example of control and execution. Aero's excessive borders and ornamentation drove me nuts. Yosemite is very subtle in its approach.

Personally, I love that the title bar is gone for a slimmer profile. OS X is already displaying the title in the menubar, and I've always found that top area to be dead space. This should be especially useful for Macbook Air users.

Wearables seem to be more about sensors versus where people spend their time with media, doing work, or socializing.

Does the tracking seem really wide to anyone else? It makes the tweets difficult to read and causes the words to blend together.

Doesn't the notification center and control center basically take care of this? Notification center could be a lot better, but requiring a two-finger pinch is a non-starter. Also, what's with this made-up title? >UX/UI &am

I'd say it's more of an economic problem. Sex is free. The pill, IUD, nuvaring, and other forms of low-effort birth control are not. Combine that with the fact that a lot of poor young women have nothing to give their lives purpos

Apple has a pretty good history of working with a hardware ecosystem--think of the iPod. Perhaps ironically, Google is the one doing automation with a first party (Nest), and Apple seems to be working with others.

Yeah, my 2007 MBP is rock solid. It sounds like rMBP's with discreet graphics cards are having the most issues.

Anything with an A7 is a bit more understandable due to moving to 64 bit. 7.1 is already significantly better than 7.0 for 64 bit stability.

Another big draw would be to not publicize your friends or the number of friends you have. This encourages quantity over quality, but it's obvious why social networks desire higher numbers.

Really like the new update, but I still don't like how there is a dead click space between the results, and I find the background hover to be unnecessary.

Especially in the physical sense. The home of the big three tore down buildings, inserted parking lots, created large arteries to the suburbs, and that allowed white flight to take place. Live by the car, die by the car.

This is great! Beginner question: Is there a way to manually remove the characters from the font files that aren't used to increase speed? Or, is this hosted on a CDN by someone?
