pantone have a colour mixing system based on 6 primaries called hexachrome, they then publish a book of formulas using those colours - it’s an easy way for printers to mix up the colours. This represents the majority of “pantone” colours. A

The question now is whether or not apple scrap them. There seems to be many additional caveats that weren't forethought. I understand that developers are looking for ways of being seen with ads being in high demand, but surely these de

It's probably a bit counter-intuitive for the "if its not broke don't fix it" crowd. But lifting the rug and revisiting ideas is pretty central to how they operate over there. The logic probably follows that if they were

Short answer: There's money on the table. The rapid rate of development of the tech means there are new business models on the horizon and these companies may want to minimise how much they give away in order to maintain their (i) comp

It'll just chip away at the roles, it's not realistic to replace them for the reasons you've listed. However the point being made is that the expensive jobs are a more attractive target. That said I think AI/automation w

I think the point has been missed. AI is bound. Humans are not. To better illustrate that difference: Just because anecdotally some human might produce crap doesn't mean that is the limit of all humans.

There is a hardware limit, just like there is with Touch-ID. I don't really see the point in continuing with this if you're going to argue in bad faith - trivial research would have revealed that and other limitations which would

I'll say it once more: I don't hold value to opinions which need to place people/things into these absurd good/bad columns. It's naive, especially when one can trivially find opposing examples. So do what works for

Further to your point, comparing humans to AI is not just misunderstanding AI, but also looks past how humans create and choose the styles which this AI is now reproducing through a statical approach. Without the human guidance the AI would

The problem here is that I’ve brought up a scenario: people who frame Jobs as 100% one way or another (just like some people frame Apple as one way or another.) So what do you do? Frame him as one way - in this case in a bad light. Exactly

I'm pretty sure the discussion is about multi-user support on the current Pro line-up? So let me ask you directly: How would you propose to get around the limitations of the secure enclave for Face-ID on existing iPads?

Supporting lossless would be nominal only, these are in-ear headphones, the fit alone would produce more drastic audio shaping. I think one just needs to be realistic about how these things are used.
