CC processing fees may exceed this. Just using Stripe [1] as an example, 2.9% + 0.30 per transaction means $.329 for retail CC pricing. Surely Apple gets a discount, but it's price of competitive alternative that matters. Part of the p

"Apple Silicon" is simply a marketing term for, well, Apple's silicon. They're making this major change to their computers with the promise of better performance, functionality and battery life. Apple's made major i

I suspect they're not embedding the correct font in the PDF, leading to strange spacing.

I think contextual targeting is more than sufficient, and in fact is the only kind of advertisement that I would gauge is effective for my personal use. If I'm searching for a waffle iron, a restaurant to visit or a new car I expect to

I think Mac Pro customers fall into two bins: 1) Genuine professional users who have demanding workloads and significant budgets, to which the price is not a barrier, and 2) Wealthy enthusiasts who always buy "the biggest and best avai

Yes, they announced a transition to Apple Silicon over two years. There are a few new Intel Macs left in the pipeline before everything switches over.

I think they need to do this as there is no support for asymmetric CPU cores on Intel or macOS prior to Apple Silicon.

Apple has pushed XPC architecture for plug-ins for several years and has announced that these plug-ins will work in Rosetta for a Native host app. Audio Units will work as well.

Mac sales are a drop in the bucket compared to iPhones and iPads, and I strongly suspect they will share a chip family. Yields should be the least of our concern.

It's tough to find fair comparisons. The Ioniq for example weighs 500 lbs less than the Tesla and has significantly less range as well. In addition to aerodynamic improvements (which is of course a non-trivial engineering effort), Tesl

Actually yes, they are noticeably more efficient than other electric vehicles in their class (similar weight and range). One example shows Tesla as 20% more efficient: Chevy Bolt: https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/noframe

I wonder if there are (legal) hurdles to Apple adding an additional x86_64 front end to their custom Mac chips to have hardware 'emulation' for backwards compatibility.

Would it be possible for Apple to relax the 7 day limit for apps that are strictly client side only? I.e. sandbox the apps to not allow access to any remote resources? It seems to me the opportunity to exploit a user's privacy would be

When did Apple say they were going to open iMessage? I do recall Steve Jobs saying this about Facetime [1] during its announcement, and that a) it was a surprise to the team building it, and b) was abandoned when Apple was sued for patent i

The inverter could be used to recharge the Megapack from power mains. Though if it is connected to a solar array the inverter might be skipped. I'm sure they can exclude that component for such installations.

I would not be surprised if Megapacks are what will power the Megachargers for the forthcoming Tesla Semi. A simple-to-deploy solution for carriers that doesn’t require significant site prep. Inverter power output of 1.5MW would align very

It's more like 5-10x better at the same quality vs. h.264. MPEG-1 is 30 years old. The available computational capacity along with the tremendous investment in algorithmic research in that period cannot be understated.
