Intoxicating. If you get the root of that word you might figure out the answer.

This is one of the most mind-boggling parts of Apple’s mobile OS. Why are they allowing apps to jail unrelated parts of the mobile experience? They’re so strict, yet they allow completely unnecessary web views. Photos galleries are another

Side question: can anyone tell me the point of Loom? My team uses it to record a screencast and then paste the link on Slack or GitHub. I do the same but I don’t need extra software because my OS already has the functionality and both servi

Not the same. If Apple pays OpenAI, it won’t give them 0.001% of their profits, but something like 20%. If your iPad is worth 20% of Apple’s profits, you bet Tim will be hand-holding you through the obnoxious setup process.

Even then, I think the last company/brand that Apple integrated in their software was Google, and that is long gone (I mean actual full apps/services dedicated to them, not just Mail.app integration)

I would have never expected this. I thought no one had a moat in AI, so why can’t Apple just use/extend one of the existing open solutions? Also, how does Apple deal with providing Siri data to a third party?

Don’t forget to factor tip and taxes into your prices. Without those it’s difficult to actually compare them to countries that actually show the final price.

Makes zero sense. No search box will ever be dropped. If it’s not Google it’s Microsoft or Apple.

> The question is, is it good for society overall. That’s not what execs ask at all. I don’t know where you’re living. The existence of DRM is not in any way related to society. Their analysts say it’s a net positive on their balance she

This is why I no longer watch dubbed movies, especially because those translations often try to mimick the mouth movements rather than the actual meaning. In Italy a “pepperoni” pizza is translated as “pizza ai peperoni”, which is “bell pep

You’re making up differentiation where there is none. Browser extensions are called WebExtensions. The terms are used interchangeably in practice. > WebExtensions are a way to write browser extensions Even if “technically correct”, the t

I’m not a fan of this take and it usually comes from lack of OSS experience. Just because something is open source, it doesn’t mean you get free contributions. Every non-trivial PR must be followed by lengthy reviews, discussions and possib

I’m torn on this. Where does it stop? Must Apple open up every single part of the phone because of their scale? Should it allow access to the raw data of FaceID? Does it have to provide an alternative to OS notifications? Does every single
