I don't find that reassuring at all.

It is sad to me that the aviation industry doesn't appear to be able reward the manufacturers that take risks with their designs. Both Concorde and the A380 have been disasters commercially. It seems like we will be stuck with the current widebody, single deck, subsonic planes for most of our lifetimes with little real advancement in comfort or speed.

Those red bellied Emirates A380s stand out so well against the sky.

Ah well remote work where everyone is co-located is very different to remote work where the people are 8 timezones away. Synchronous communication will always be hard between teams so far apart.

Yes 100%. East coast - UK/Europe collaboration is much easier than West coast. Frequent meetings between Europe and SV mean someone is staying late or coming in early on a regular basis. In the worst case the transatlantic bandwidth can be 2 emails a day.

That would be nice, but these are ultimately US based and US lead companies. Moving work into other countries does create complications, especially with the West coast only having a workday overlap of a few hours (at best) with Europe. That really has a non-trivial impact on productivity and decision making latency.

But the risk is no higher for an Apple Watch than a Rolex or a wallet full of credit cards no? Especially if you use a credit card where you have charge back protections.

That sounds like it would be incredibly hard to do without the user noticing. Either way, if you're concerned about this could you not just use a strap that is harder to remove?

Calling an iPhone "essentially useless" is an absolutely ridiculous thing to say. Literally hundreds of millions of people run their lives on them. They must all be stupid?

That website is not fit for purpose. Between the cookie settings dialog, the (fake) request for notifications and the intrusive ads, I gave up on trying to actually find the content.

A very similar product to what you are thinking of does exist - it's called Ventile. It is basically pure cotton woven extremely tightly making it waterproof. It has been around since the 1920s and is still used to make coats today.

This is very cool, but a little scary. Does anyone know why this doesn't happen every time there are forest fires?

I mean why would they? It's not new and its been well known feature of the iPhone since day 1.

For you a threat, for many others a feature. Lots of people buy iPhones specifically because they are restrictive, and are therefore more robust. Ask an average user which experience they prefer - sourcing software for a Windows PC, or downloading an App for an iPhone.

I recently came to the same conclusion, but also realised that there is a lot more to it than just pay. Generalising here but switching for a similar role in the US will mean:

* No more free healthcare

* Much less PTO

* _Significantly_ less parental leave for you and your partner

* Less pension/401k contributions (typically)

* Generally longer hours and a more intense working culture

* Probably a higher cost of living

Depending on your new salary you may find that these downsides are offset by more cash in hand, which is great, but it is definitely not a one way street.

That first image on the wiki is terrifying. Such a huge amount of energy at play.

This feels similar to the other irritating assumption banks in the UK and EU make - that you have your phone on you and able to receive messages every time you make an online transaction. Every time I want to buy something online I have to walk down the street to get enough signal to receive a text message. There is no alternative or opt-out. Infuriating.

It seems that this would only work once the bodies are pretty thoroughly decomposed, and the trees have had time to absorb the nutrients this creates. I imagine this takes quite a while. A useful technique perhaps, but I can't imagine it solving any hot cases because of that delay.

Many visitors to the Southern UK are surprised by the ferocity and height of the tides here. The harbour where I live effectively becomes a fast flowing river twice a day, and the height of the water varies by 30 feet or more. It is not uncommon for the boats with the smallest engines to be unable to make headway against it.

This seems a little cliche. Personally I find the brilliant white beacons people have in their mouth in the states a little unsettling. Teeth aren’t naturally a beaming snow white - they’re bone coloured.

On auto it seems to show up as you scroll only, acting as more of a scroll indicator than an interactive element.

Pretty much everyone on MacOS (the OS mentioned in the article) does.

I actually think it has more to do with the increasing size and sophistication of the touchpad in Macs. There is no need for a scroll bar when you have a touchpad you can flick (likewise for magic mice).

They can be partially or completely re-enabled in the settings on MacOS.

Ah yes, countries like Somalia do so well without a system of functioning government and laws. With the added benefit of no taxes! But you might have to pay protection money to your local warlord so YMMV.

This is only worth reading if you take it as a commentary/artwork. If you read it as a real licence it all feels a little bit childish.

The licence prohibits Law Enforcement use. What does that have to do with Capitalism? I'm fairly sure every socialist/communist/facist country has some form of law enforcement.

I think the turning off FindMy one really depends on where you fall on the security-usability spectrum. For example if you want to truly harden your Mac there is a ton of steps you can take, but they get gradually more intrusive to the experience of actually using the system: https://github.com/drduh/macOS-Security-and-Privacy-Guide
