You may misunderstand how the IETF works. Participation is open. This means that it is possible that people who want the work to fail for their own reasons rather than technical merit can join and attempt to sabotage work. So consensus by y

A lot of zigbee infrastructure also expect an internet connection. These border routers also double as admins, and people want their smart home stuff to be available while they are outside their home network. Thread devices can mandate inte

Yes, USB extenders are not spec-legal (because the device isn't built expecting to be extended). But you can have an extension cord which accepts USB on one end but doesn't accept USB on the other. So the keyboard has a superset c

The lowest level of the three is not a useful number. The case serves as a battery pack to recharge the headphones (something I did earlier today while on an international flight). The reality is the sort of compatibility being talked about

Four points: 1. Apple potentially loses giving ground to regulators before the regulators ask for something. They don't want to allow alternative app stores and then have a regulator say they are also not allowed to mandate royalties

The largest impact would be that the reversion would only affect native macOS apps, while catalyst apps, remote iPhone apps and locally installed iPad apps would still have Liquid Glass UX.

The issue is that static content only sites do not exist - unless browsers change their stance to disabling long-relied-upon features like Javascript and embedded frames for content served over plain HTTP. They've taken that strategy w

That is not surprising since Chrome does not use native UIKit. If you draw your own window frame, you're gonna have to update for every OS release. I believe though that apps which have not been recompiled for macOS 26 operate in a leg

I'm not sure what you mean by an unmodified F4, as I have a spotlight key that turns into F4 with a modifier. The spotlight apps view is available for binding a keyboard shortcut directly. Maybe yours became bound to the spotlight shor

IMHO that is because Intel wasn't delivering chips meeting the specs they promised. Once you dropped it into a system and put a thermal/cooling profile in, the new chip didn't really perform better than the old one. On the lo

I agree with the strategy that Liquid Glass is part of. They are making the iPadOS the mother platform for developing most things - scale down to iOS, or add a few extra changes for visionOS/macOS. iPadOS is gaining features to bring i

The removal of Java was perhaps the best example of people expecting Apple's obsolescence policy to be the same as Windows, and getting burned. There were large software vendors who had not yet started on a strategy around the deprecat

The structured part is somewhat like using for and while loops rather than goto statements - it uses block scope to make it easier to reason about how concurrent code is compartmentalized. However, you still have concurrent code. The exampl

Because of the heavy push to GPL v3 by GNU, and because Apple’s interpretation of the license’s patent requirements prevented any GPL v3 code use, very few GNU projects remain as part of macOS. Git is not a GNU project and is GPL v2.

Infrastructure-wise, XML digital signature implementations have to do transforms to convert the XML to the signed octet stream, and commonly use XSLT engines to do so. There was a fun early bug where one of the transforms that Xerces had wa
