Apple, please make a new 12" Macbook for those of us who travel and want the lightest weight possible. Less than 2 lbs, thinner than the Air, but without the compromises of the Neo. I'd pay more than the Air price for this. Or, ma

Amazing the distinction Sam sees between himself and Zuck while most see no distinction at all.

this is fun. my first test hits 125wpm. bursts up to 162wpm. 100% accuracy. seems too easy, though -- no capitals, nums, etc?

More accurate would be to call it TikTok for Links, not for text, as text without links isn't allowed.

This drives me nuts. I want to listen to an album, not a song. But I'm guessing this is an old-school POV that the younger demographic doesn't agree with.

This is mostly just using the keyboard to manipulate the rhythm/time performance of a pre-configured score. Interesting, but not what most would think of as jazz improvisation.

I wonder how this technique differs from CPAP. CPAP doesn't use pure O2, but perhaps the pressures can be similar?

For years now I have used "-pinterest" on every regular search term I utilize (I bake that into any Google bookmark). Would applaud the removal of Pinterest from search results.

Why does MCAS have to take control of trim at all? Would it not be sufficient to alert the pilot of an imminent stall situation so they can adjust the angle of attack themselves? Is it because doing so would put the MAX too far afield from

Yes, have tried this. Comes back working and then develops the same problem shortly thereafter. Further, Apple Stores are about a 2.5hr drive for me, so I can't just easily keep popping in for every issue -- especially if I think the f

Trying this out. I like it more than I thought I would. But a couple comments: 1) The sounds appear to all be the same, regardless of key. Seems there should be some subtle variation in the sound, even if it just a very slight modulation in

I'm okay with the travel changes (and even sometimes prefer it to the old generation). I am unhappy about the increased sound, but can live with it. But the regular problems with repeating keys is an insane regression in functionality.

Interesting results (thanks for the SciHub link), but also a call for more research. Not enough info yet to rule out a likely explanation: that those who seek therapy were already in a negative situation, and thus the therapy is a symptom o

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the loss of the ESC key. I use Vim and touch that key all day long. Replacing that with a touch button sounds like a terrible idea for usability. Clearly nobody in charge at Apple is also a vi user. B

I've found that google alerts rarely reports new hits on my terms anymore. I know this because I also use their time tools in search to find new hits, and what it finds almost never comes in as an alert anymore. When it does it's often quit
