Their product page mentions "high-quality AAC audio", so I'm assuming all audio output is converted (if necessary) to AAC. http://www.apple.com/airpods/

I use "fastest to complete == least power usage" as a rule of thumb because of "race to sleep". I suppose that might be thrown off by power usage characteristics varying based on number of cores working? How does one eve

It sounds like maybe you want Apple's "Continuity" features, especially Handoff? It's not quite as simple as your scenario (you'd have to do two separate "handoffs", one for the article, and one for the

I believe that's a different problem than was being discussed, which was that while driving directions are being shown on Maps on pre-iOS 10, it maddeningly only lets you pan/zoom a slight amount before snapping back to a zoomed-i

Yeah, and it might even be the best choice to use it. I'd guess it would be. But it feels against Apple's "house style" to use unreleased software in that way.

Swift Playgrounds only runs on the iOS 10 beta and is itself still in a prerelease form.

If the fs detects a bit error does it flag the file as entirely unreadable? Move it to lost+found? Force me to restore the file from a backup? For files stored in iCloud Drive, if that version of the file exists in the cloud, the OS could

Throughout the history of computing, a ton of software has been licensed under a service/subscription model. There's nothing special about the web in this respect.

Just in case you weren't aware: you can turn off Force Touch and turn on "Tap to click" in System Preferences > Trackpad.

Event loops are heavily used — basically process input, process physics, process NPCs, render, repeat. (Likely not in that order — I'm not much of a game developer.) This is what the author lands on in the "Success" section.

I've started to phrase it as "give as much detail as you'd like", because I like the insight into what they deem important and are interested in.

Agreed. It'd be terrible if it were being used to look for a "right" answer, but as a means of getting someone to talk about systems and processes so you can get a glimpse of their approach to things, I feel like it's re

If I were learning C++11 and/or SDL2, I'd be really interested. Or if I were versed in C++11 and wanted to learn more about how the C64 worked. Sometimes you're more in the mood to read/experiment with code than to read

I always thought the original version of that page (it looks like it hasn't changed much) sounded very Jobsian. "If you run to the press and trash us, it never helps" in particular sounds like him.

many sites still sadly support IE<=8 I'm curious: how much have "evergreen" browsers changed this? Do developers typically target Chrome from a few months ago? Two years ago? Just "today"? Maybe a better way to

Swift's is true strong [Edit: I should have said "static"] typing. The compiler enforces it but saves you from having to explicitly specify it in unambiguous cases. So: let x: Int = 3 let y: Int = x and let x = 3

I suppose it does, though at least the tool my org uses doesn't write good descriptions on the merge commits that are created upon merging in a PR — they're just like "Merge pull request 190 from …" when I'd prefer

But the PR isn't retained (afaik) in the repo's history as a distinct entity (I'm talking about git proper here, not extra tools like GitHub, etc). In the end, git just has commits. [Edit: as prodigal_erik points out, perhaps

It seems like it'd be nice to have two levels of granularity exposed in views of a source control system's history, basically corresponding to pull requests and commits. So you could drill-down to individual commits as needed, but
