Where can I stream that?

You can't really replace the underlying tools, you'd want to install the new versions in a different folder and update your Environment to point to those executables. EDIT: I'm wrong, didn't realize homebrew-dupes actually is meant to replace the OS X utils.
So effectively, it's only one step better than installing Cygwin on a Windows machine? Can someone please remind me again why the MacBook is such a preffered machine for software development? For years I've been told, " You get a shell! ", and " It's UNIX under the covers ", etc. Except that the shell userspace is antiquated, and the UNIX flavor is BSD rather than Linux. Meaning that I'm just as out-of-sync with my t…
Also, OS X/macOS meets the Single Unix Spec: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_UNIX_Specification#Curr...

That's true for macOS Sierra, but will Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan and earlier be retroactively rebranded as macOS? Now we will have to listen to people say things like "I upgraded my Mac from Mac OS X 10.10 to macOS Siera". :)
It was called "OS X", not "Mac OS X" since 10.8.
Mac OS 9 -> Mac OS X 10.0 -> OS X 10.8 -> macOS 10.12
The good news is that I might not have to listen to people call it "Mac OS Ex" anymore. I'm hoping there's a bunch of new APIs hiding in there allowing ISVs to do cool stuff. Because the new version, meh, don't care about Siri much and the rest of the stuff is window dressing, IMO. Maybe some improvements for Xcode, testing tools?
I have never in RL heard anyone call it "OS ten"

I use iOS and a password manager, and maybe 5-10% of apps I use have an integration for it (and I place the blame on Apple for this, imo if they actually care about user security as much as they want everyone to believe they do, they should have an app store review policy that forbids having a password field without using the password manager extension). Anyway, the effect is that almost every time I sign into an iOS…
Your alternative is simply copy-pasting without using the system clipboard (old-fashioned style). I imagine there's a lot less attack vectors by doing it that way, at a small time cost. Is there no option for a "local only" clipboard with this?
So:
copy once -> not sent to cloud/devices
copy twice (or click floating button) -> sent to all your devices and cloud account

APFS is only a developer preview in macOS Sierra, your system will not use it by default. It is meant for production use with the 2017 release. The filesystem does not seem to include any innovation, it is just catching up to the state of the art. A new filesystem was long overdue ever since ZFS was dismissed.
It's focused on SSDs and encryption, though, so it's modern.

Makes me wonder what they're doing with all that cash...saving it for the Apple Car? I'm with you, getting progressively more annoyed at the lack of hardware updates.
They're sitting on it and letting it invest. So pretty much nothing, except some stock buy back. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/apple-isnt-really-sitting-o...

Twitch also has HTTPLS support; you can watch their streams in Safari without Flash installed.

Apple lists a few limitations for APFS, one being: "Filenames are currently case-sensitive only." My thought: hey, that is a feature!
It seems phrased in the particularly Apple-y style that usually means "we're seeing whether we're allowed to throw this legacy feature away or whether something will force us to put support for it back in."

Apple's been using HTTP live streaming for a few years; to date, nobody else fully supports it (although Edge has some limited support). Twitch also has HTTPLS support; you can watch their streams in Safari without Flash installed.
I didn't actually notice that there are links to the videos in the Resources tab, so I guess it's not as bad as I thought.
