Apple thinks we are eternal
Death is an everyday subject these days. How is Apple helping people in dealing with people's death? For example, what happens to Apple's Family Sharing if the family organizer passed away? If you use iTunes Family Sharing, special attention must be paid to the « Family Organizer » role. If he or she dies, there is no way to give this role to another member of the iTunes Family. Have you ever wondered what happens if you want to close an Apple ID account of a diseased person? What if you don't even know how to access it?
Searching for the word « death » on Apple’s support site doesn’t bring any information related to tackling the death of someone. Apple's support to help users deal with death is abysmal.

Should we care? I mean, general performance of a smartphone is crucial for a great user experience but... compared to Android, really? for the vast majority of people, do they care, besides the entry price? [Daring Fireball: Let’s Check In on the State of iPhone and Android CPU Performance]

Coronavirus and Apple’s products
One of the thing that will get my attention about Apple in the coming months and years: how the coronavirus will impact features and designs of Apple’s products, both in hardware and software.
The obvious example is the FaceTime camera on Mac computers. The second obvious example is FaceTime application in general, not to compete against Zoom or others, but to make it more useful and bringing more value to human visual communications.

On the lack of Flash support on the iPhone
I remember arguing with a guy on supporting flash challenges like transposing « hovering » events with the mouse pointer. How on earth someone could « hover » with their fingers on the screen for content to change accordingly? That wasn’t possible obviously.
Now, look at the iPad with the just introduced pointer support. It’s exactly that, hovering on buttons make the pointer morph into the button’s shape. Fascinating.

New: Apple Store Online
One of the thing that I like about Apple: web design. Clean. Simple. This store front is new and only in the US, for now.

Why there is no visualizer in Apple's Music Player or apps like @Cosmicast? Would be so cool.

I never made it to the WWDC conference. This year, being a virtual-only event, I wonder what a paid developer account would get me compared to general public. #iosdev #appledeveloppers #apple

Another vision of the future of computing my friends. I like it too. Apple has not the monopoly of truth here. #microsoft #surfacego #surfacetablet

When macOS behave like Windows
I had to reboot my iMac this morning to fix weird issues (no sound in FaceTime calls, iCloud sync not going anywhere, etc.) And now this, after reboot. WTF. iCloud-based services can be scary. How am I supposed to fix this now. Don't tell me I have to turn off iCloud Photo Library and turn it back on. Please.

Really nice visual.
