If you are not on iOS 14 beta 4, hold off and wait for Beta 5. I do experience the same issues exposed in this Twitter thread. Very buggy release. It reminds me of iOS 13 betas. #ios14beta4 #apple

Did you know Apple has a Telegram channel? They didn’t post on it since Nov. 2018.

On Apple's latest iMac update
Great reviews on the latest iMac update. As a serious amateur photographer, the thing that stands out to me is the new nano glass option. At 500$ it is not cheap but reviewers are liking it a lot. Could this option eventually come to the iPad Pro? Or the iPhone? I would pay a premium for this on the iPad Pro. Now, why the 21.5” iMac has not been updated is a mystery to me. Continue reading →

How Long Apple can stand like this?
On Apple’s stance on its App Store policies. Developers are complaining. The tech press is complaining. Governments are complaining. Now Microsoft is complaining. And Facebook too. Google?

Am I surprised? Nope. Actually, yes, I thought meeting time would have increased much more.

Dear Apple, you are (again) painting yourself in another form of thermal cornor. Back off while you can. I know, saving your face ain’t easy. #apple #appstore

Here is a bad example: showing the three most recent tweets from my twitter timeline is useless as I’m following many hundreds persons. Be more creative than this. Continue reading →

Apple is really not done with Intel in the Mac. It is clear to me that Apple Silicon will find its way in lower end machines first, certainly portable ones with today’s announcements.

On Phil Schiller (departure) of Apple
Aside from the iMac updates coming out of Apple today, here is another (more important) news: Phil Schiller is now an Apple Fellow. That was not expected. People come and go. Mr. Schiller as done a lot for Apple. Time to (slowly) move on. I don’t like Greg “Joz” Jozwiak. Continue reading →

Apple certainly gained a lot of ground in the tablet market during the pandemic. But according to these numbers, the increase was even better for other players in the field.

If Apple allowed side-loading of apps on iOS:
- would they still require the ability to use a kill switch?
- how would this affect their ability to build the right binary for the right platform architecture at installation time?
- what else would Apple would have to give up?

When I wanted to work for Apple...
Here is a short story. In 1985, I was working for an authorized Apple dealer in my home town. I was an Apple zealot (surprise?) and I wanted to work for them. So, I created my (short) resume and sent it (by mail) to Apple’s headquarters. A few months later, I got a polite response: Thanks, but no thanks. I was eighteen. Continue reading →
