Makes some sense when you consider that you'd have turned Siri off by a route that doesn't allow you to turn it back on, which could make it difficult for some users to get it back.

Those rationales don't make much sense to me since they seem like they'd be equally applicable to the keyboard and trackpad. Every design is about tradeoffs. In this case, the mouse would have to have a somewhat different shape to

I would love a wired trackpad. You can use Apple's current trackpad (the "Magic Trackpad 2", I believe) on a Mac (at least) via USB even with Bluetooth entirely off. Edit: I believe (but have not confirmed) that their cur

No doubt. In the article she mentions having a “scene” in the broadcasting software she uses that just shows a “standby” screen (which reminded me of “We’re experiencing technical difficulties” cards that TV stations use). Still, I’d be par

Well, that's some type of democracy having some effect, yeah. But I was taking issue with the specific idea you put forward that good healthcare ideas would likely spread (in today's political environment) through the "labora

If it's as successful as proposed, it would not take very long to most states to offer something similar. IMO this isn't clearly true. Lots of states (especially those that currently have the worst health care outcomes) seem far

IMO, the screenshots on your App Store page do a great job of progressively disclosing details on the app starting from its primary value proposition. I'm enjoying the app, which is very nice! I think it, too, could make its bundled co

Modern MacBook Pros are quite a bit thinner (and more solid/sturdy feeling) than just a few years ago; and, poking around at iFixit's site, it looks like they all get 1/10 scores.

Similar to how much effort goes into dealing with things like dangerous strains of bird flu, only to have people complain about how much money was spent on "nothing" when an outbreak doesn't occur.

They’d have had a very hard time making the PowerPC -> Intel transition without Rosetta, but I’m not sure they’re in the same position now. How many apps on the average 12” MacBook are no longer maintained or have significant asm in them

Apple will almost certainly still be a thing in 30 years. While it's hard to predict anything about fashion that far into the future, there are lots of buildings that are 30 or more years old that are cool places to be.
