Are you saying Hackintoshes are known to sometimes generate executables that differ from those made by real Macs? That seems really unlikely to me.

It has to be understood that OS design isn't taught in "OS design" classes and books like "OS concepts" are a twisted joke. Teaching low-level implementation details of Unix in OS Design classes is the quintessence of a CargoCult. The mate

Perhaps most users, if asked "would you like Facebook to show you everything or should it filter some stuff out for you automatically?", would pick the former. But it's not necessarily the case that they'd actually prefer that in practice.

I love that Wednesday's twist tie color is a complete mystery even with the assembled resources of the internet.

I'll be contrarian and say importing/exporting aren't required for the first release. This isn't about being a replacement for Excel on a computer. It obviously should come soon, though, and my expectation would be to see it in a free upd

Because they feel (rightly or wrongly) that they can practically provide a better, more secure, etc. experience for their customers by controlling/curating what executes on their devices.

"Genesis" just means a beginning or origin.

Seems perfectly readable to me.

Pretty much, at least as long as you didn't share any folders between the host and the VM.

Not sure what you mean when you refer to a company being flexible enough (or not) to handle fast changes in valuation — I wouldn't imagine there has been any significant change to Apple's operations or strategy during their recent stock pri

Cook's a terrible guy to be the same type of CEO as Jobs was. But it doesn't follow from that that he's a terrible CEO, and I think it's exactly why he took the opportunity to elevate Ive to head of all design.

OK that's what I was missing. :) I was thinking of "satirical" as meaning it was necessarily "not real".

Are you implying this isn't a real app that will be available soon? I like to think I'm pretty good at "getting" hoaxes, and I'd definitely guess that this is "a real thing". (Though I wouldn't be shocked if it weren't...) Edit: OK it loo

anything ever copied, scanned, or sent on that thing is in there somewhere I wouldn't be terribly surprised to find out my MFD has more persisted and recoverable in it than my first guess of how much it has (nothing), but it certainly doe

Just fyi, this actually isn't the Sorkin one — that one's coming out later on (not sure when).

Been there — I know that feeling more than I'd like to admit! :) Cheers!

Yes - if you watch non-techie people use tech, often the biggest obstacle is just starting to use the thing. Then when they do, their persistent fear clouds their ability to learn/use the thing well. This makes me think that approachabili

You seem upset that I didn't note your retraction, as if I'd done it maliciously. That's not the case. Isn't the more straightforward explanation that you made your edit during the time it took me to compose my reply?

Great, thank you.

I don't think wmeredith is the person who made it. (And the app is free.) The issue with adding an eraser is that it would add a modality switch to an app that currently has only a single mode: you touch and it draws. If you have various mo

Yeah, I cringe at seeing a share sheet shown by a double-tap on a grabber. For one, I strongly expect share sheets on iOS to be shown only by the normal "share" icon; for another, I don't expect double-tapping on a grabber to do anything. I

I'm not sure why: edw519 could easily and reasonably think that what Aaron did was wrong while being very sad that he committed suicide.

Not sure I agree — its standard for OS X documents to show their hierarchy when their title bar is command-clicked; cmd-up arrow is much less broadly used.

Will be fascinated to read that. I remember during the keynote when Safari was announced thinking it was bizarre (not to mention risky) that Gecko wasn't used, but, I knew you all must've had your reasons. As a regular user of Safari and/or

Try command-clicking the Safari title bar sometime (when you're at a page with a URL that goes several levels deep) if you haven't before.
