I actually have suffered from a cut. It's ridiculously sharp.

Apple Maps is absolutely very late to the game when it comes to road closures. Google Maps somehow always knows which roads are closed, even if for a few minutes.

When I started using OS X, one of the biggest draws for me was first-class native keyboard shortcuts support that was consistently followed and applied by all apps (first party and…

If their problem was 'too many developers', I reckon they'd be building totally useless yet amazingly engineered SDKs and data/analytics tools or apps to improve the quality and sa…

Surely, Apple will respond by artificially hampering one or more of their products in the EU and hence take away even the slightest reason to upgrade hardware in the name of Apple …

We only had dial-up connections with a real IPv4 address back when I used ICQ.

It was way ahead of its time even in the 90s. I remember being swooned by the real-time typing windows, amazing sound effects, Just Works™ file transfer, and the wonderful contact …

Unless it is doctors' notes or prescriptions.

Would this help in getting jobs as much as a real MBA would?

I have to wonder how much of this middle management heavy organizational structure was introduced by cultures that place undue significance to 'becoming a manager' in computing suc…

In my case, it appears that maximizing my download has a huge impact on my upload as well, which makes sense from a TCP/IP point of view. In this case, do you mean the ISP's flow c…

It seems to grossly underestimate my upload bandwidth!

I appreciate the QR code menus in busy spots in Amsterdam (almost every terrace when the weather is nice). It means I could spend more time with family instead of standing in a lin…
