Would love to read more about those recruiting events down the road from Motorola headquarters. This sounds like something that would have needed to be kept on the down-low.

Seeing that the original iPhone used Infineon chips gives me the impression that Apple learned from Motorola how NOT to build mobile phones. Wondering how many Motorola employees went to work at Apple back then.

Yeah, we have lots of breweries in Germany that make Pilsner and sell it explicitly as such although Pilsner means coming from Plzeň in the Czech Republic. On the other hand Nürnberger Bratwurst (basically sausage) has a trade union suing a

Facebook’s history and the current stock price explains everything about this news. If you are about short-term self-preservation this is one of the things that you need to do.

My hopes were to learn some geeky facts but the article did not deliver. Blew my mind to read that they can be safely landed and reused though. That’s new information to me. For geeky facts I found these pages: https://www.csbf.n

That’s also how I got rid of my RSI. Once I ended that one bad relationship in my life, my mind stopped messing up the most used part of my body to send me signals that I’m actually chewing on life’s gristle. My wrists have been pain free f

Thanks for these resources! Speaking of «in a hurry», I wrote a tool that among other things allows you to quickly double-press a modifier key to copy the hex value of a color to the clipboard. https://adriannier.de/colordog

The article already has a summary. What both summaries miss is the fact that one of the authors was appointed by Steve Jobs himself to study Apple’s ways and then offer the learnings as a curriculum to Apple employees.

Just like someone else wasn’t particularly amazed of the process how lightbulbs were being made in the 21st century, I’m pretty de-sensitized when it comes to the wearing of masks or respirators in Japan. For me, it would be remarkable if m

Looks shameful from the outside. When I see them celebrating Martin Luther King on their startpage, my assumption is, it’s there because Tim said so. But when they are not allowed to talk openly about what it is they actually do to be true

What is depicted in the video looks more like a dumb ambush to me. They should have lured him in with questions they knew would give him a chance to put Apple in a positive light. Sales figures, quarterly results, and such. Then when he’s c

You must have very good reasons for keeping AutoCorrect on. I’d really like to “hear” them as I’m feeling that I did not get the point and am missing out by turning it off. And with it off, I can still manually select valid corrections pret

Walls of text too often come with the monotone recital of that very text. But if you’re lucky, the speaker mixes up the order of bullet points or even forgets one which helps you keep your mind engaged and stay awake.
