Impressive but with a specialized coprocessor it's not unexpected. It's a bit of a gamble for Apple though, as other ARM SoC's are probably able to bridge the gap in raw single-core and multi-core performance in a year. The w

What I really miss in Swift are user definable attributes. Also I would like to have the Objective-C attribute that requires you to always call super. I don't think that Swift even honors that attribute if it is defined in Objective-C.

Swift has a nice mix of features that allows you to write pretty close to functional while also allowing you to write code that compiles to the same code as equivalent C (albeit a bit more verbose). I don't think there are any language

There were a few "bad Apples" in the iOS lineup, the iPad 1 and 3 and the iPhone 4 were a bit underpowered the day they launched and didn't fare well on iOS 7 (or even 6...).

The notch is pretty awful when watching full-screen content in landscape orientation indeed. And no way to get around it in most software. Less annoying but still a distortion are the rounded corners. There should be an option while watchin

The problem is there's not just one type of code. Shared low-level code needs much more comments as shuffling a bunch of words through memory often is a bit abstract and you don't get the "why" by just looking at it, whi

When going to (Samsung) OLED you'll need an increase in PPI to have the same sharpness because the layout of the pixels is less optimal than with LCD.

I would implement a similar dump pipe as well for a very different application. I mean the application still needs to set up the WebSockets with the clients, which isn't trivial to code yourself.

Well the start of the '90s was still Amiga time, which was the biggest leap in home computing ever but that really happened in the 80's. Then it was followed by the dark ages of PC gaming catching up while people played on dumb co
