It also depends on what the screen content happens to be... I'd be sure running Horror flicks or Bold and the Beautiful all day for the kids won't give the same outcomes as Sesame Street and Playschool. It's also what are k

In my likely naive view, this seems quite simple: create quality and unique content and people will pay a price reflecting that. Make the 'base' service free, but offer a better 'tier' (or whatever) as a paid service (Q&

All this article does is highlight the soldier mentality of accepting instruction blindly as to what is good/bad. It seems child-like when read as the article presented it.

Yeah Facebook definitely just shut it down and walked away, definitely. No harm done...

The counter-question is: is the consumption of that 1/20 viewing area actually of significant impact to the user? With the screens on those models rather large anyway, what of the benefit is significant, given it cuts into speaker loca

That's exactly the issue with the notch, it serves no particular purpose other than allowing 'more screen.' Does losing 5mm at the top the screen to bezel really affect user experience when the phones are huge anyway? If not,

Thanks for the clarification, it does seem to have some interesting potential if a good use cases arises

Well you did come here stating how frequently you're giving babies sugar and that you can't be bothered reading articles you're commenting on...so assumptions may be made.

Babies do not 'obviously love sugar.' They just have the sweet taste-buds first, which aligns with breastmilk being sweet. The baby is just as likely to be freaking out at the sensation overload (not necessarily in a bad way) rat

One thing I don't see from the mainpage, who is the actual intended audience that will facilitate adoption? All I see is 'everyone' and well that's rather vague. What's the actual value statement other than anonymit

Are these people in the PR department? Because FB's outward behaviour and actions don't seem to reflect your statements And hiring 'unlimited headcount' is usually a sign of ticking a box and not actually understanding w

I think you're confusing 'number of people using something' with actual usability. Just as everyone learned to use Windows because it was everywhere, people learned to use iOS. That does not necessarily mean it's especi

There is a difference between feature use and phone usability. A lot of people seem to give Apple a pass on usability because Apple are stylish, or the marketing says they're brilliant, or something.

Actually the MS 'Metro' design used in the ZuneHD and Windows Phone UI (best Home screen design by far) were both more logical and discoverable than the iOS UI (well until they released the Win Phone 10 UI with the hamburger menus

Slight correction: it's convincing people you're giving them something they want, not necessarily delivering what they actually want.

Actually they said they have 'no reason to doubt' them, which would imply that if something damning was found they could then just say 'ah well now we have reason to doubt.' In other words, they said nothing at all.

His point seems to be 'don't go near the scary end of colour and you're all good: stick to pastels and use a million shades of nearly the same colour. I don't think it explains good colour use, vision differences (e.g. T

Much like any other company that does not require user data to maintain business. It is easy for Apple to take this stance as they are a walled system. Though it does not say that they guarantee the apps available on the platform are also

Sounds like it is worth debating, please, provide the argument that demonstrates such a gap.

What does 'growing thicker skin' mean then? How thick? Shall I start to bully you and we'll test the thickness of skin required? I get the sense that often the people that write these kinds of comments are not on the receivi

I get the intent here and applaud encouraging female participation and equality, but this is pretty much just discrimination based on sex.

But if it's public then anyone concerned can watch for it, or it can be evaluated for regulation/law changes.

The title here is a little deceiving. The court just found that in this particular case, use of the photo met the factors that determine fair use.

Indeed, but is non-critical thinking a default, or the outcome of systems put in place? I.e. Which root cause is being assumed?
