Yes. You must have the modem on. Before it would fully disable WiFi modem. Now it simply looks to be off. Perception is that it’s not connecting but keeps modem on to keep pinging routers passively. But again, that’s why I would do it if I

I believe this is also a ploy to keep people pinging wifi routers. Can't say for sure, but that was my gut reaction when I discovered this during beta testing.

When you tap the header status bar on mobile safari this site doesn’t scroll back to top. Why?

That website needs to adjust its ux. If on an iPhone, swiping down, the thumb or finger does change on the y axis, but also a little on the x axis. While trying to read this it kept opening some gutter menu. Really annoying.

I don't see why it's counterintuitive. If we know that "random" distribution will place values on a curve, then why would it not follow that the money would distribute this way and lead to inequality. But I like the arti

I was interviewed for a similar article. tldr; smart young people who happen to discover a very Luddite community and applied tech to buy up product and re-sell. Can't be shut down cause brands will lose face if they "care."

Great article. Slamming android and talking about Russian software. Click bait to boot? Sold. My only issue is with his comment on swift. Which also sucks. Objective-C is wonderful and delightful. I'm sad to see it losing favor. Oh wel

Before I ask my question, let me ask a "am i right or wrong." WebSockets is a small layer on top of HTTP. And HTTP is a protocol on top of TCP. Right or wrong? So then why would do this? To get TCP running over port 80 to get thro

I really don't understand how this product can be called Sketch in good conscience. Sketch is already a disruptive gorgeous product that has changed ux and digital design. It should be respected and given room to breathe. Change the na
