Everyone is batting an eyelid at Facebook. Your entire premise is false and I wish these attempts to deflect any time criticism of China comes up would stop. It’s big news the same way that it’s big news that other tech giants are doing it.

Once a feature is shown off in the real world it usually doesn't take long to replicate its functionality to an acceptable level. This give Apple a lead in that respect, but not years of a lead.

When I first saw that feature of the Samsung watch I thought it was really awesome. I still do. But I also remember it being excluded from some of their watches? Is that not the case anymore?

I'm pretty skeptical that Apple has a decade-long lead on any of the other big players in the market. Any innovations that one company can make can be more quickly adopted than new innovations occur and there's nothing as far as s

Personally I use very little of much of these big features. One that is indispensable to me is Mod-Tap, which allows me to use normal keys as modifier keys. For example, my 'z' key also functions as "Ctrl + Shift" when h

This isn't a case of planned obsolescence. If anything it's exactly the opposite of that, trying to prolong the useful life of a phone as its battery degrades. This did of course lead to them offering a $29 battery replacement for

Yeah, it would be neat if it made it a bit easier to work with. Git's TLDR page actually breaks it down through subcommands. tldr git commit will show examples and explanations for using `git commit`.
