WWDC 2023

Now it is my annual ritual to complain online-only WWDC. Four years have passed since the last in-person WWDC (2019). I'm so sorry that I couldn't complain about sad bagels - bagels without the toaster. However, the "no innovations at WWDC" phrase wouldn't be proper this year; now we have

Miorine

I couldn't put down anything last week, partly because of the 49er's loss, but the root cause was I was busy setting up my new M2 Macbook Pro - her name is Miorine. I've been trying to separate my work environment from a private setting. And I used M1 Macbook

WWDC 2022

Three years in a row, WWDC was also held as an online-only event. I know a few (not sure how many) forks were invited to Apple Park for an on-site "viewing" event, but I couldn't be one of them. Maybe, Apple might still be concerning my complaints; they must not

Where will the App Store go?

Yesterday, Judge Gonzalez Rogers adjudicated on the "Epic" case in the game industry. [https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/10/technology/epic-apple-app-developers.html?searchResultPosition=2] The judge defined the market as "digital mobile gaming" and said Apple did not have a monopoly on that market. However, she concluded Apple violated

The 12.9-inch iPad Pro 2020

The 12.9-inch iPad Pro 2020

In late July, my daughter complained that her iPad - the first generation of 9.7 inch iPad Pro that I used before - was too slow. So... (you know) it was a perfect excuse for my upgrade. I turned my third-generation 2018 11 inch iPad Pro over to her
