iOS does accept Xcode builds over Wi-Fi, in case you weren’t already aware. I think that’s how most people work now, when they run the project in Xcode, it just launches on the iOS device wirelessly.

It would definitely be very nice to have a keyboard attached to an iPad running Xcode, and when you want to run your iPad app it just launches on the device like when you’re developing a Mac app on the Mac. That would be excellent.

I think it's common among many founders who became very successful for them to assume they have a special and deeper insight into how the universe works.

This might not sound like much but have them take good doses of vitamin D, vitamin B, and magnesium. There has been quite a bit written in recent weeks about those deficiencies leading to much more severe illness.

One overlooked consequence of a faster chip is less strain on a battery and thus longer battery life. While it may not necessarily affect the perceived speed of apps, it has this significant benefit to the user.

Interesting that this rejection came out in the same week, maybe the same day, as the EU opened its anti-trust investigations into the company. Obviously there’s some smoke somewhere. I say this as someone who has exclusively used Apple for

Perhaps you were there during a weather pattern that minimized the effects. Unless you are saying you had a long-term low pollution experience there, which I think is impossible.

The main problem, when I was there, as with many places throughout Asia, is the poor air quality. You’ll definitely notice it, my eyes were burning to get through the adjustment period.
