This iCloud app doesn't look new, unless I'm missing something, it just appears to be available in the Microsoft Store now?

The controls are much more friendly and there's a huge number of mods that can completely change the way you can play the game.
It definitely doesn't have the level of depth that Dwarf Fortress has (there's no z-levels for example) but it'll still suck hours of your life away if you're not careful.
It should work though once you click on that button, weird that it doesn't seem to be working for you.
Edit: Just read through more of that link, it's got quite a good breakdown of the features on it.
It gives you access to what is essentially an "accessibility DOM" that shows you how the page's structure will look to a screen reader, and you can also check the contrast of an elements text against its background.
It might not help you score any better on things like the webmaster tools tests directly, but it might help you identify things to change/fix.
I'll admit it's been little more than a fancy way to add a bookmark to your home screen with the option to hide the browser chrome, but it's been there for a long time.
I wonder if it's just been inspired by GOV.UK or if the same group of people (or just some of them) have been involved. Either way seems like they've made a real improvement.
External data storage lets you offload large binary data from being stored in the SQLite database without changing how you access that data from objects in the graph.
An example might be if you're creating a photo library. Rather than storing the actual photos as say BLOB data in SQLite, you can tell Core Data to transparently store it as an external file. It then basically stores the filename and some metadata in SQLite instead, keeping the SQLite database small without changing the Core Data API to access the data.
While I'd personally disagree with these kind of changes, and I would always prefer it to show the http/https and the www dot, it doesn't actually break things like copy and pasting the URL from the address bar. You still go to www.google.com when you type in www.google.com, it's just trimming away the www dot displayed in the address bar.
I think for the vast majority of non-technical people it's not really going to make even a little bit of difference. If anything it'll make it easier to spot what domain they're on, assuming they're even checking to begin with.
This is a very neat trick and it seems like it works really well, I’m kinda surprised I’ve not seen anything like it before.
I found out recently you can just type "cmd" in the Explorer address bar and hit enter and it'll open cmd.exe to the current directory, so long as you're not in a special shell folder or an unmapped network share. That's saved me a bunch of time.

The tags themselves look fine so I think it might be complaining about something missing in the actual path string?
On top of that you can actually go in and customise it quite a bit to your own liking as it's just a folder inside your local app data: C:\Users\YourWindowsUsername\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WinX
From what I can gather from watching this so far is, it just sounds like a layer you can optionally choose to use on-top of sockets that manages things like: TLS, multiple networks (4G/3G/Wi-Fi), DNS resolving, proxies, etc for you so you don't need to write it all yourself from scratch every time.
Maybe I'm wrong about that, or maybe none of this is actually as hard as it sounds in practice. But this seems like it might be atleast some what useful.
I don't think there's any "secret sauce" in the Steam in-home streaming that's actually proprietary/private. It's just a H264 video stream in one direction and controller button presses in the other, over a custom made low latency protocol.
Given Apple and Valve seemed to be working together to bring VR to the Mac recently, I'm surprised they weren't given any leeway at all.
I might be wrong but I believe for a time (maybe still?) only the automatically shortened URL length (t.co URLs) counts
But seeing as view urls are quite shortlived by the sound of it, you shouldn't have too much of a problem moving their location from seashells.io/v/{url} to something like v.seashells.io/{url} if you do end up introducing some kind of HTML mode.
So if a visitor tries to download one of those images, are they going to end up saving the image with an incorrect file extension, or is it up to browsers to fix the file extension based off of the Content-Type header?
