With Apple's default apps, i kind of feel like the apps themselves are strategically designed to not be the best place to look for lesser trafficked use cases. Visual customizations get upstreamed into the system accessibility settings

I agree. Rush hour commutes requires a fleet owner to essentially provide equivalently as many commuter cars as commuters. So commuters may as well have their own for all of the benefits of something being just yours. I do think autonomous

It may very well be trivial for a few days, but it's worth considering the full length it could be in effect for. The emergency act after initial confirmation can be in effect for 30 days before reapproval (it can be voluntarily ended

Definitely. I think many larger screen buyers of iPhonee will be happy there is the option to trade off the extra battery they used to get by default with a large screen for now less weight. It's just odd to me that despite its price i

The 16e is 167 grams, where the Air is 165 grams. It feels like the Air is to the 16e what the Pro is to the standard titled iPhone — the expensive version. Which makes the marketing feel a bit incongruent with what we've gotten here.

To some degree this is more a knock on the state of UX on the web than a intrinsic advantage for web feeds, but my favourite thing was my ability to compact list view content feeds, categorize them, and flip between them quickly because eve

Every technology tends to replace many more jobs in a given role than which ever existed inducing more demand on its precursors. If the only potential application of this was just language, the historic trend that humans would just fill new

I like the glassy shader effect and concept even if lacking a bit of discipline in all of the places where it's applied at the moment. Though I think the real test of differentiation for this redesign is how approachable the 'liqu

Funny, I'm pretty sure glass on glass is one of their guidelines no-no situations. Nice of them to implement it on their own control centre to prove how bad it is.

Copyright is long, but not infinite. There's little point in my opinion to permissions to train upon unless your purpose is to simply slow and postpone the inevitable. I'd be more interested in getting AI companies training with p

I just wish they'd give up the interface already and open it instead of trying to reserve it only to be used by Siri for whenever they have a Siri personality-ified LLM or if ever the LLM works as a universal router for doing anything.

It's worth parsing out valid whys any approach could be applied, from the whys that drove the approach chosen. For example, in my opinion Trump seems distinct in recent world politics. Instead of power being expressed through relations

Trump reminds me of someone trying to finish the last side of a rubiks cube by undoing every other side in that pursuit by not paying attention to them. I think he'll continue to be the main cause of constraints to realizing his vision

I think the one thing with crypto assets that differs it from other strategic reserve assets is that there is no baseline demand rooted in usage and consumption. If the US was in such an emergency position that it needed to liquidate the cr

My opinion, art meant to capture and communicate the emotions and truth of an exact moment will always have a place. But also, as the time cost to represent a single frame of an idea becomes achievable in fractions of a second, what it unlo
