In my experience they turn it back on each driver update, I also believe they mentioned it somewhere during the setup but I’m not sure.

For me too, got one for my 10th birthday (and got it working again a couple of years ago). For me it was my father who "forced" me to read the Basic manual before I was allowed to use it by my self.

It's available in the Xcode 8 betas, so probably with the release of the iOS10/macOS GMs.

Don't know if it's the same sensor, and in the article comments they say hairy wrists shouldn't be a problem, but last year I tried a TomTom Cardio watch for a week which also had problems with my hairy/sweaty wrists during a run. On the product forum I read a lot of similar stories, don't know if it was a faulty batch or if the combination of the technology and my wrist was the problem.

After I used that on Mountain Lion (GM) and a Crucial M4, my MBP often froze during boot. Disabled TRIM again with Trim enabled and booting problem was solved.

> but I feel like it's a great loss that computers no longer come with a book that explains how they work.
That, and the fact it started with a basic "editor" begging for my input and then doing what I told it to seemed magic at the time.
My brother on the other hand, was only interested in playing games and didn't/doesn't care for programming.

After playing with one at a uncles house, and not shut up about it, I got one for my 10th birthday and I felt like I was king of the world. My parents first made me work through the manual, which was how I started and fell in love with programming.
Still have the original keyboard (the rest was sold in other case/keyboard), maybe I'll try to use it as a Raspberry Pi case.
