very similar, but seems a bit more polished is https://coder.com, you can write your own terraform modules and run it on whatever cloud you want.

Apple can already decrypt your iCloud photos, same with google etc. I don’t get this argument as they can already do that.

the A14 is a 6-core CPU, the A12Z is an 8-core CPU. So we'll have to wait for benchmarks to know for sure.

No, GDPR does not apply between 2 persons.

No, my claim is that their solar claim is not ridiculous ;)

Also, if I do the math on their AC charging. 35km/h gained --> 2905Wh energy. Standard 230AC, 16 amps is 3680W. So I guess the number there is also correct? Take about 85% efficiency, then you have 3000Wh in one hour from 230V AC

No, you must not. The energy required for the car to drive 12kms is 996 Wh. let's round to 1kWh.

Solar is DC. for instance Tesla powerwall is 97% efficiency for DC/DC conversion for charging its battery. So you need basically 1kW of solar to produce the needed energy to drive 12km (per hour). I think you are off by at least a factor of 3.

edit: at 20% solar efficiency that would require 5m^2.

I see, but that does not answer my question though. How is my math wrong? the expected range from solar in 1 hour equates to 996 Wh. You suggest they need 5.6kW of solar to achieve this?

I think I miss something in your numbers. They say 83 Wh/km. which means that they expect to get 996Wh in an hour. How did you reach 5.59KW?

The RAM is quite frankly easily upgradeable on the iMac.

The mini + eGPU seems like it would be a candidate then?

Both new Mac mini and 27" iMac have upgradeable RAM.

Could you go more into detail how these story points would work. It seems like in the end a story point would always be associated with a number of days (or hours).

I can confirm this, as I just did a clean install and set it up as a new iPhone.

I think Tim Cook answered on his D11 interview that they did not make an offer for Waze.

was* if I'm correct.

Your vim needs to be compiled with python support.

I agree with you. But it's important to understand that 'Patent granted' has no meaning at all.

If they prove they had it implemented before the patent they couldn't.

Patent examiners just provide advice. Even if the advice is negative, you can still be granted the patent.

The validity of any patent then has to be established by a judge in court.

And how do you know this?

Command-T is known to be quite the pain in setting up.

Say, they do distribute it this way and are found guilty of patent infringement. Would they then need to pay for each copy downloaded? I have no idea how this works, it would be really helpful if somebody with some knowledge could chime in.

IANAL, but would they still be allowed to distribute their app themselves?

That seems to be true. It also seems to lack the ability to lay flat on a slightly elevated angle.

They clearly stated in the keynote that Adobe is working on a retina version of Photoshop.

Ideas can't be patented.

first you say "One day, your favorite website decides to switch entirely to SPDY, and you can't use Firefox anymore. It's natural to blame Google for this, since they invented SPDY and put the client into production. But really, it's that site's developer's fault for using nonstandard features."

then "Google and Mozilla are especially innocent, since Apple and Microsoft can easily steal any features they want from Chrome and Firefox. They're the only ones out in the open, and for that, I think they deserve to try new things for the web. If they stick, the other vendors can easily support the new features."

How would these features stick, if developers using them are to blame?

Let me make a point with an example. If Apple were to add a tv-streaming protocol to Safari (and opensource it). Would you consider it Google's duty to also add it to Chrome?

EDIT: I know my example is a bit far fetched, but it had to be something that is not in the interest of google.

The fact that they are opensource has very little to do with it. They are trying to push certain technologies into certain directions under the cover of opensource.

They are still in single control of the spec. This is not true with standard bodies where several companies can agree on it.
