Apple won't let you change a changelog after the binary is built and put on the store. So if you want to get a fix out, but not alert people that you're on to them, you have to put out a changelog that just says something like &qu

Something I've been trying recently is the Spotify progressive web app. Pros: Snappier to use, faster to open, never see the "Updating spotify" interstitial. Cons: Spotify quits when I cmd-q Chrome, completely different UI la

Right on the HIBP page, it says "Why 1Passsword?" where you can read his reasoning for why he recommends the service. You, as an informed consumer, are free to research the things you find in that link, like "what is a passwo
