The Apple Watch has plenty of bugs in it I can imagine not just this one
Citation, please.
Learn to internet, son. I found this link on the first page of search results for "apple watch bug list". When you figure out how to use google, you can stop asking so many stupid questions.
Unfortunately, the article you linked-to is NOT DATED, and the only reference to any date whatsoever was September 2017 and WatchOS 4.01; so there is no way to know for sure whether this is a list of already-addressed issues by the time WatchOS 5.0 (and the Apple Watch Series 4) came out a few weeks ago, or not.
Hint: Already-Addressed issues are no longer called "issues".
So, it seems that YOU are the one that needs to learn to internet.

Never said anything about Apple dying. Apple itself is doing just fine making iphones and over priced accessories. I expect them to continue to be fine for a very long time.
I said dying platform, which the Imac line currently is. There has been no real development in years on the platform. It remains over priced and under power. All this might change but as for now its pretty much a dead platform.
Are you talking about the HARDWARE PRODUCT "iMac", or the iMac's SOFTWARE PLATFORM (OS), "macOS" (f/k/a/ "OS X")?
I have to know which you mean, so that I can properly show you to be an idiot.
You know what they say about any product named "pro?" It's not for pros, it's for wannabes. Get roughly twice as much computer for the money by going with Linux.
You mean "Get NOTHING for your Non-Money with Linux".
Linux is BY FAR the WORST "More for your Money" example on the PLANET.
In the era of 4 kilobyte PCs, you had to be efficient. I still marvel at how classic Atari games fit in such a small space.
So did they.
I read an article about the tricks that the Atari 2600 game-devs. had to pull to make things fit in those (IIRC 2 kB) game cartridges. Things like using some "unimplemented" 6502 OpCodes that did cool stuff like Clear the Accumulator and simultaneously load the X-Reg. with a value, etc.
You are right, though. Parsimonious software development is a largely-forgotten art-form...
Here's a fascinating article about game Development for the Atari 2600. Yow!
10000 lines of code per function with 30 indentations of IFs. Elses.
Cant even factor out 3 lines being repeated 100 times into a function.
Woz wrote/writes code like someone who is inside the logic. IOW, his code is SO efficient, that people STILL marvel in its many clever and byte-saving designs.
I know of many projects the Woz worked on, his ability to rework circuits to use 20% less chips is legendary.
There is a reason the Apple 1 looked like an Atari video game board.
One of the most interesting things the Woz did that stunned everybody is the way his floppy disk drive worked.
When I first got mine I could not believe what I was looking at, the controller card only had a few msi ttl chips on it and the disk drive electronic only had a couple small chips that were mainly analog?!? how could this possibly work?
The Woz did it all in software
Yep.
And he used to tell the story about how, one late night before a big computer show where the Disk ][ was introduced, he and Randy Wigginton were able to change ONE BYTE in the Controller's State Machine PROM and reduce their raw error-rate from 1 X 10^9 to 1X 10^12.
For those who don't remember, this is how the typical Shugart SA400 controller looked in 1978:
You're supposed to flee from the #metoo fad, not toward it. Anything for publicity so people will look up your wikipedia entry figure out who you are, eh, Woz?
Everyone else is having charging issues, signal strength issues, antenna issues, front facing camera issues. What a piece of shit apple produced
First off, "signal strength issues" and "antenna issues" are inextricably linked; so thanks for trying to get two bites at the same apple (see what I did there?).
If by "Front-Facing Camera Issues" you are talking about the difference in the smoothing algorithms in the iPhone Xs, that is simply a misunderstanding of how it works:
Yeah, nothing like it. Compiling on a computer that sits on your desk is totally different than compiling on a computer that sits in your pocket or on a computer that straps to your arm. Even if those computers are architecturally similar if not identical. The key take away here is the shape and location of your compute is vitally important to this definition of what makes Java and JIT distinctive.
Hey dumbass.
The compilation is done on Apple's SERVERS, before the App is downloaded to your device.
So when I want to see the time on my apple watch at 2:40pm based on my laptop clock, the java compiler will speed up time, since it will be at least 2:41pm before the watch is ready to display the time, after doing all the GC, updates, and other critical functions.
So when I set an alarm for 6:00, to wake up at 6:05, when the watch has finished running all the ancillary processes to harvest whatever data is available, and at 6:10, after hitting the silence button only 25 times, the alarm will silence.
What great features!
With iOS 12, my phone now takes about 40 seconds to render the keypad before it calls 911.
Funny. Out of all the betas and reviews of iOS 12, isn't it amazing you are the only one to experience that?
or just delay till you get your lawyer and if face unlock times out then after I talk to my lawyer then after that if the lawyer says to give out the password then I will.
That's probably a better plan, unless your lawyer doesn't realize you can't be compelled to give up a passcode.
Apple Inc in 1997 had money losing ugly computers.
Not compared to anyone else...
If you look at this timeline of Apple computer models in that time period (say 1995-1999), Apple was the ONLY computer company NOT making computers utterly devoid of style.
Slashdot Mirror
I turned the feature off after several false alarms in less than a day of normal use
Liar.
sorry gimmick
Sounds like someone's jealous...

OK, you pay Apple to put spy chips in your computer. Not me. Did you know, many Apple products are assembled in China, using chips made in China?
You are so stupid, the world would be better off without your DNA stinking up the place!
Go die.
Manufactures just don't want to put money into what they see is a dying platform.
You'd THINK that after nearly a HALF CENTURY, that the "Apple is Dying" meme would be laughed out of existence.
But stupid is as stupid says.

Why should anybody be surprised? It's Apple.
Vote with your dollars. Android is better anyway and you get a whole lot more for your money.
Android != macOS.

EEs write code like AND logic gates.

Now, compare that with the Disk ][ controller:
http://i2.wp.com/www.appleresc...
Amazing that they do EXACTLY the same thing, isn't it?
Why? Sure the Apple 1 and Apple ][ (and disk OS and disk drive) were great in their time, but 40 years later name another he worked on.
Because there isn't one. There is really nothing. So I am not surprised how this turned out at all.
Now, please list YOUR accomplishments that will be remembered 40 years on.
I'll wait...
You're supposed to flee from the #metoo fad, not toward it. Anything for publicity so people will look up your wikipedia entry figure out who you are, eh, Woz?
Unlike you, who HAS no Wikipedia entry, right?
A server is a computer sitting in a rack instead of on a desk.
Really? I never would have known that, thanks!
Idiot.

As for the Charging Issues, the Jury is still "out" on that one...
Yeah, nothing like it. Compiling on a computer that sits on your desk is totally different than compiling on a computer that sits in your pocket or on a computer that straps to your arm. Even if those computers are architecturally similar if not identical. The key take away here is the shape and location of your compute is vitally important to this definition of what makes Java and JIT distinctive.
Hey dumbass.
The compilation is done on Apple's SERVERS, before the App is downloaded to your device.
So its basically Java for the apple side.
So when I want to see the time on my apple watch at 2:40pm based on my laptop clock, the java compiler will speed up time, since it will be at least 2:41pm before the watch is ready to display the time, after doing all the GC, updates, and other critical functions.

Funny. Out of all the betas and reviews of iOS 12, isn't it amazing you are the only one to experience that?
Sure - because it uses more resources!
No. Because ARM architecture works that way.

"Governments from California to China and South Korea -- even Donald Trump's Washington"
Why this and not simply "Governments from California to China and South Korea and even the US Federal Government"
This extreme bias is persistent and spreading.
Calm down!
We're not laughing at him, we're laughing with him!
At 50$ /kWh the whole world will run solar and wind. We can store two or three days electricity usage of the whole world at affordable prices.
Adiabatic CAES. Batteries are for portable things; compressed air is for grid.
