It seems to me like they need to massively improve Homekit adoption first into far more different types of devices. That's when Siri becomes useful to me personally. I want to at least be able to say "Hey Siri, I'm heading ho

So yes the geniuses early retiring problem is a thing, but there could be a way of managing this IF the government wasn't useless - secure phantom options. The idea would be that you wouldn't own the actual shares but a fully le

The dollar, energy and bandwidth savings possible globally from getting this right means it should be a UN/ISO level commitment to get it right, standardised and committed to.

I have a friend who works in the civil service. He's a devout socialist. His bosses boss, who runs a huge department gathered all his staff into a room and said "You can't be fired" to the staff. My friend has said it&#x

With AI and robotics killing off huge amounts of entry level jobs in the next 5 years, the number of young men who are angry is going to absolutely explode. Western countries are going to reap what they are sowing. Feel free to copy and pas

He's too nice to call out the real problem, which is hubris. Intel got arrogant, remained arrogant and despite getting absolutely pummelled by competitors on share price value, believes it is special. Intel needs to realise it's n

So if you don’t get any benefits then your account won’t be monitored right? Right? We’ve already learned in a few months that this lot are as corrupt and authoritarian as any previous lot we have had.

So I worked at LMAX during 2009-2011 when Martin Thompson, Dave Farley, Mike Barker, Chris Smith and Danny Yates worked on the Disruptor. It was in use in 2010 inside LMAX. The heritage of Martin and Dave was video games rather than finance

I've just installed and configured KDE Neon Plasma 6 and I'm really liking it a lot. Feels closer to Windows than my other Ubuntu and Xubuntu installs. Just my 2p

Dutch directness, and as a consequence rudeness, is legendary. They'd be world champions at it. Add in a fair amount of arrogance and you've got a reasonable chance of being on the end of what most would describe as them being rud

I currently pay for Pocket but will be moving away from it because I can't stand that the Mozilla CEO is running the place like her own private fiefdom/piggy bank. A 23% pay rise is absolutely nuts considering the performance. I g

The New York Times were never going to write an unbiased article about him. I have no genuine idea how he's doing as a leader but I'd look in other places to find out.

There's a hint of red trouser brigade in many of these pubs. Some are beautiful pubs and worth seeing for that but plenty on this list are meh. The Jolly Gardeners for example is now a pretty who cares gastropub when it used to be call

A good looking straight friend of mine owned a Ferrari 355 back in the day. It took about 6 weeks before I went out in it with him around Central London. My overriding memories included: 1. Women holding up their little fingers as he drove

I'm not American but at least two of those seem politically affiliated board members and both to the Democrat Party. Feels like they're aligning with the establishment by doing this. Anyone else troubled by this?

I’d never have been able to buy my Amiga A500 which really got me into coding with a paper round in my early teens. It also spurred me on to study harder in school because I realised delivery jobs were not a great career. I think if we had

IANAL but from what I remember from my module on law at Uni, they are likely suggesting there's a risk of "passing off" by you as them. Ultimately I think this is absolute nonsense but the law doesn't always follow logic

One of the main problems with the elderly is that although they often have considerable money, they are tight with it. I've tried to persuade my mom who has fallen to have an iPhone and Apple watch that she can easily afford but she wi
