That's correct. Version 1 of the iPhone also didn't have MMS and was EDGE only.

Do you really think opera mobile was comparable to mobile safari? Yes, I remember getjar.com but that's not comparable to the app store. Pretending they're analogous is facetious at best.

It’s easy to forget how crazy the world was before the iPhone. Let me list the ways in which Apple blew the doors off of the industry with the iPhone: 1) battery: the iPhone was basically a giant battery strapped to a logic board. No one ha

If the new Apple processor is actually 7nm fab, that means that Apple is performing at a higher level of execution than basically everyone else in silicon land. Intel just failed spectacularly at shipping 10nm and TSMC is just beginning to

This looks like a really cool premise. Decentralized signatures for certs seems like a no-brainer solution to cert/DNS hijacking (maybe I'm missing something?).

Why wouldn't Uber just do long haul to a distribution point near a city and hire drivers for the last mile?

FWIW, I would totally live in Berkeley if my commute to the dogpatch could be shortened. Right now, there's no obvious mass transit way to get to my office in SF in less than 80 minutes (assuming every connection is hit perfectly). Wit

Dawn is serious. I am super intrigued as to what she might be running to achieve her stated goals (I'd be super curious if she's got a new ZK algo up her sleeve :D).

I think this is exciting. I'm curious whether Oasis is still using SGX in their design (the Ekiden paper seems to be super SGX focused but I'm unclear as to whether they have moved away from this). Dawn is super smart so it's

This misunderstands the problem... Carriers are the main distribution channel for phones. You can’t compete with carrier distro.

Just curious, it’s also fraud to understate your income, right? So if you made $95k, but put $94k, that would also be a felony, right?

Dropbox deduplicates files across user accounts to minimize storage. Effectively, this means all accounts share one private key for encryption... Edit: to be clear, I believe it is an option on enterprise accounts to use your own key.

I checked and you're right! I misunderstood a series of articles from 5 years ago on this subject. Please excuse my confusion :(. Edit: Also Rex is the kernel and RtOS is the OS. http://www.osnews.com/story/27416&#

Rex, the Qualcomm baseband os, is a binary blob that’s really annoying to reverse engineer and it shares a bus with the top-level os.

Ok so what if, by policy, the company uses an ephemeral messaging app with a 30 day log rotation? Can a court hold them in contempt for using that product or is it fine because it's a policy to have log rotation?

In general, when the CME enters a market for futures, they take all of the air out of the room. I don't think it's realistic to believe NASDAQ can compete with them.

If it's a group message I believe it's carried over the mms channels so it could be a bug in the mmsc. There are so many layers involved that it's hard to know but I'd guess it's a caching bug somewhere along the li
