I actually consider the Sony BMG rootkit as the beginning of commercial malware. The antivirus companies knew it existed, but did not flag it partially because it was by a legitima…

One big source of both delays and bugs is the feeling that your work (which has compatibility impacting changes) _has_ to make it in the current release, because otherwise it will …

Would they want to? If you were to build a system with no requirement for backward compatibility with cocoa or macOS, or even knowledge from such a thing existing, we have still mo…

> and leave the archaic and the weird things behind. The number one archiac/weird thing was message passing instead of methods. Number two was square brackets for message passing. …

It is enabled by default in STP, so presumably it will launch alongside the 27 releases. Note Temporal was in the Ecmascript 2026 release back in March.

I was unclear on that as well. WebAuthn uses an extended form of the U2F format, such that if you don't use any of the new features or extensions the two are binary compatible with…

The problem I would typically have (not just in Shinjuku) was with directions that did not repeat/update as you continued on through junction points. It made navigation more stress…

How much internal storage do you use for your full feature video editing, vs attached/network attached storage?

Apple has plenty of enterprise-specific features. From a historic standpoint though Apple came back from near-death because they differentiated by focusing on the consumer first. W…

> Apple seriously thought the iPad would replace computers ...for some users. See their "Mac is a truck" analogy. And it has. My parents haven't owned a Windows or Mac machine in s…

Where's a few good places to go to learn more about open weight models, both running hosted and running locally?

I suspect this is because the next models are more imminent. Not imminent per se, but Apple doesn't want to be left holding the bag on most of a factory run of 512GB Studios.

Sure, quite often. They usually have a price target in mind, but their costs and margins mean they can't always hit it. What's rare is that this is a price adjustment on existing s…

> What's the over/under on apple spinning up their own fabs for their own needs in the consumer market? Darn close to 0%. They generally go after multiple manufacturers for a part …

Third party retail may very well have not reflected the price increase yet. If not BTO, you could order today possibly for store pickup tomorrow.

It can also be nice to switch climate control on a few minutes before you enter the car.

The electronic key fob is typically not copyable, so you need OBD-II access to provision a new one even if you have proper equipment. I do not know the VW app, but other electronic…

This is not the cause though - other third-party browsers on iOS can do ad-blocking, and also can use system-installed extensions. They could also launch an alternative browser eng…

That was with a lot of technical innovation against a static competitor. Firefox isn't in nearly as good of a position when it comes to either technology or resources now. It would…

This wasn't a hardware issue

What fundamentally makes a box which has a web browser, allows for third party app installs, and can drive them by connecting to a 4k monitor in addition to a keyboard and mouse di…

It does not look nearly as good when you compare paying customers.
