    In skydiving, it isn't unheard of for someone to have their phone fall out of their pocket and survive impact without the screen shattering. That's from ~13000ft, but once the phon…

    I recently went this route. I didn’t want to set up or use Unity so I wrote my own 2D fluid simulator based on some of the same papers using Metal compute shaders (though I’d love …

    Written english is often only a second language for Deaf and hard-of-hearing people. Sign languages have their own idioms, culture, and identity; ASL isn’t signed English. I previo…

    The passcode fallback isn't available for passwords, just for unlocking the device. In fact, IIRC I don't think you can set up iCloud Keychain without FaceID being enabled...

    At my local drop zone one of our pilots posted this video as a reminder of why we let the pilot know when we have large groups leaving the plane. Large groups outside like this can…

    I was considering using lib-tex (the library implementing texlive 2019 for this shell) last week for an iOS app I’m working on that needs to generate basic LaTeX images. It’s reall…

    I don't think this is true... Apps below iOS 13 won't be able to use the new system-defined UIColors, yes, and users below iOS 13 can't change to the dark-mode using a switch in th…
