   Not an expert at all. But I think gist of the video is that GPU size relative to other component has increased. Plus they rearranged some of the "furniture" to accommodate that increase.

    Are you looking for open source only option? If not and willing to pay then JMP is probably the best. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JMP_(statistical_software) Orange is another one which is based on Python instead of

    Recently read this book: "The 5 elements of the Effective Thinking" by Edward B. Burger and Michael Starbird. It was published in year 2012 so not very "modern". https://press.princeton.edu/books/har

    Used to like notebooks but it becomes messy if not checked. I think they are good for some use cases such as short analysis. Switched back to file and folder organization along with Make file. Tedious yes but prevents me from messing my an

    I will admit that I use it rarely. However, many of my friends use it often to read books as compare to something like Kindle. I am more of iOS (20%) and MacOS (80%) person so not much use in my day to day screen use.

    Always nice to see accessibility features. I would love to see a way to share settings. There are so many hidden features and iOS settings is getting crowded and is very difficult to use. A "simplified" mode where only few selecte

    Their Freeform app is nowhere near good as Notability or OneNote. I doubt this journaling app will be too bad for other developers. May be it will create more interest in that category.

    I just use Flickr for keeping images that can be shared within close friends/family. Very old school but I love the annotation/note aspect of the Flickr. May be not very secure but good enough for my purposes.
