That circuitry would just be inside the phone, making it bigger, hotter, heavier, and more expensive. When everyone has Bluetooth headphones, what's the point?
That's no excuse. We should fine them all, severely. That's money they should have spent on engineers anyway to solve the "impossible" emissions problem. But now, that money's been converted into environmental damage of unknown magnitude that will cost us an unknown amount of resources to correct.
I've used Hangouts every day for the past few years and never had a problem that wasn't IT related. Hangouts is fantastic if you use Google for email, photos, etc.. because all their products integrate with all their other products. It's really quite impressive from a software engineering standpoint.

This is exactly what the Republicans don't get, and why Trump's little dream of bringing manufacturing jobs to the US is stupid, because that holds true for nations as well as individuals. Automation is going to decimate these jobs, and we should let it. We should be pumping money into education, science and infrastructure so that the US can be the leader in developing NEW technology. Take the Carrier deal, for instance. Instead of paying Carrier millions to avoid automation, we should spend that money re-educating the workers so they can work on developing newer, better tech, better robots, better automation. Software, robotics, AI, and renewable energy are the direction of the future, but Trump and all his baby-boomer cronies are stuck in the past and think that just because it worked in the 50's means it should still work today. Meanwhile, every other tech nation in the world is catching up and will eventually surpass us while we sit around like dipshits building factories to manufacture more useless garbage for the world to consume.
You mean the peace initiative that involves increasing our nuclear arsenal and starting a new arms race? Make no mistake, Trump is an amateur, thinking he can deal with Russia and China who are run by incredibly savvy strategists who have been in the game a long time. They will appeal to his ego and play him like a fiddle, just like he played the baby boomers and white nationalists.
We need young intelligent people in the government. The baby boomers had their shot, and fucked up the country and economy in the process. Time for some new blood.
Not everything needs to be the Next Big Thing. I see people with smartwatches all the time, but then again I actually go outside from time to time and don't just form my opinions about The Real World from reading Reddit and Slashdot.
As far as we know. Remember, antimatter wasn't theorized until the late 1800s and not even show to exist until 1932. There's a lot about the universe we have yet to discover.
Nothing childish about that. LA LA LA I'M NOT LISTENING LA LA LA, because someone used a bad word.
Clearly you read the beginning and the end, and presumably everything in between, yet you choose to ignore the arguments... for what purpose?
Grown-ups can filter out the bullshit.
People are the voting machines. Social engineering hacks are still hacks. Every single person who read a Russian-made fake news or analysis of hacked DNC emails was directly influenced by Russia, consciously or subconsciously. Period. The fact that you either don't comprehend or don't care is the truly terrifying part.
We shouldn't be fighting for those jobs anyway. It's pointless. Let the robots and Mexicans do them. If our education system wasn't dogshit because of a lack of funding, those people would already have useful skills or could learn new ones for free. We should be investing in education instead of old factories. There is absolutely no point in chasing manufacturing jobs anymore. Automation is going to decimate that sector. We need to up our education game right now, or else the USA will become the next India or China once those countries surpass us in technology.
It seems at some point Adobe becomes liable for damages caused from its faulty software. I'm guessing the EULA is what's preventing companies from suing Adobe into oblivion?
Yeah, most/. readers never leave their parents' basement, so they don't actually see that Fitbit and Apple Watch are actually quite popular. FitBit is even acquiring Pebble, so sales must be really terrible...

All those "ignorable" things are the reason why security eventually fails.

The Obama administration has of course been hostile to whistle-blowers.
Maybe white-blowers too.

I'm a developer and I don't need a bunch of antique ports or a giant display. What ports do you think will make a MBP more "developer-friendly"?
Not really. Average Reliability but better than most.

"Why publish this piece now?" Probably because it wasn't written until now.
You're a special kind of dipshit, aren't you? Even MS execs use MacBooks. http://www.businessinsider.com...
You mean like how they did when Trump made all his bigoted remarks? Besides, stereotyping is not the same as bigotry.

Except the 2.7 million people who bought them in the 3rd quarter of this year alone.

Then the logical solution is to get rid of the upper classes.
They do that on purpose so they can get away before you realize they smashed your package and broke the contents.

How are they going to show anything to Congress when Congress isn't even in session?
