I'm impressed with the presentation and looking forward to the iPhone X. Some features are gimmicky like the Animoji, but a lot of the new features and upgrades are really nice. That being said I have two main gripes. I know it kind of

On Mac, QuickTime Player also works for that URL. VLC does work, but it's really wonky and stutters every 10 seconds.

Cyrillic can't represent all of the sounds that Kazakh has. It borrows some symbols but even now it uses symbols that don't exist in Cyrillic. If you ever go to Kazakhstan you'll see that each official sign, such as in the Al

I think what you're referring to is semantic satiation[1], where you hear or see a word often enough that it becomes essentially gibberish and you can't parse it properly. As far as I know I'm not dyslexic but it happens to m

It will still have the same constraints as normal TouchID, so it will lock after 48 (72?) hrs and will only unlock with passcode. It might be marginally easier for FBI but I imagine 3D printing an acceptable face will be tough, especially i

I'm not sure about music, but what's wrong with the default Photos or Contacts apps? Contacts works fine for me, and Photos works very well considering I have nearly 9000 photos. Syncing over iCloud is also fine, between my phone

Have you used iOS or are you making assumptions based on what you think you know? If it was obvious why iOS was badly designed then I wouldn't have to ask. a) It depends on how the app works but in general you are right. But this is to

One thing I think would lay to rest a lot of this issue would be if Facebook would just explicitly state, "We have patents for React," or, "We hold no patents for React." There's a lot of misinformation going around

The user flag doesn't always work correctly, but my main annoyance is that I shouldn't have to supply a flag to do this. It should be default.

I still think that the "project" directory is best, but I'm glad that Pip is moving to local-by-default in any case. It won't take away from the necessity of virtualenv for cases of different dependency versions, e.g. Dj

I don't really like virtualenv because you have to activate it to do anything and deactivate it if you want to go to another project or work on something unrelated. I'd much rather it work by the project directory so I don't

I think you're right, the biggest pain for a general developer for Python is determining which package manager to use. I'm thankfully insulated from it a bit due to using Docker for a lot of my development, but I hate the fact tha

It's because if an author makes an app that goes against Youtube's TOS, if Apple doesn't take action, then Apple is liable for it. Apple isn't actively policing it, as well, it's more that Google requested it be tak
