New Apple Lust Objects for 2010 and onward

reminds me of those flip phones with the big buttons marketed to the elderly

lol

i hope they make a 6c in a coloured plastic casing as rumoured.

i hope they make a smaller phone

unfortunately they're racing against the Samsung Galaxy, which is now even lolHUEG-er
i like my six plus, and it feels weird holding a "normal" sized phone now. but it's still a little too big for normal use.

i stated upthread already but apart from the older hardware and shitty storage limits i think the 5c is a handsome phone tbh

the rumoured 6c is allegedly the size of the 5c.

They're going to have to stop numbering the iPhone eventually, right? Apple hates numbering, iPhone is the only hardware product with branded numbering other than the desultory attachment of "2" to various iPads

wld prefer the 5c to the 5 if they made it in black

just buy all of the colors and mix them together

visionary

6+ is awesome

;)

*salivates*

i tried that app out on my phone and did not have good results but it works for some people. not sure you'd want to run your whole life through it

nobody cares?

applause breaks with no applause or meek applause is weird

TRENT REZNOR

beats 1 radio station

richard d james cameo. this is weird.

trent reznor was behind the beats 1 radio station. tbh, it's the only neat thing about this.

the iPad updates make me think I'll probably spring for a new iPad after the next refresh since I'm postponing the watch indefinitely

hearthstone + netflix simultaneously on iPad pretty killer

pharrell is eddy cue's favorite songwriter

wat up drake

"You can reorder and choose the next song in an album or playlist. Or skip the next track altogether." iPhone reaches feature parity with WInAmp

Windows 10 already has the good bits of El capitan windows and iOS multitasking both. Rest of it not too exciting so far unless I missed something huge during baby bedtime xxxxp

no there's nothing exciting except for the game stuff really which is exciting mostly for the goddamn delayed settop box

in my like heart of hearts/pipe dream of pipe dreams Nintendo's NX is a partnership with Apple

can u imagine Iwata and Miyamoto at an Apple event, I totally can

"play the song from selma"

Siri plays Imagine Dragons

This is my new favorite Apple keynote moment.

oh also open source Swift/Swift on Linux seems potentially neat, will annoy the Rust and Go heads

Maybe. But what’s Swift without Cocoa?

@testing is probably similar to Rust's inline tests.

I haven't written a line of Swift myself I just appreciate any gesture from the tech industry that suggests that maybe 1977 wasn't the end of history

Fingers crossed that it’s something crazier (e.g. contracts or QuickTest-like specifications).

:D otm

I know Chris and Tanya Lattner somewhat. Chris is super into Playgrounds. I hope they announce a bunch of stuff around it this week.

If "write a new kernel in swift targeting ARM first" is a thing that's going to be cooking inside that spaceship that's at least pretty neat

For sure. Unfortunately, Objective-C is required to bootstrap Swift and C++ is required to bootstrap LLVM.

Garbage collection is an issue too. However, a Cocoa re-write would be cool too.

silby: I’ve wondered this for a while, what do you do professionally? I feel like in many of these type of conversations, we’re the only participants. :D

I participate in a slightly more limited scope

I'm a programmer at a microbiology lab at UW, my job is to make sure sequences of the HIV genome don't get lost and keep the science going in general. I used to work for a Seattle-based ecommerce bookseller of note but it sucked and also I wasn't good at it.

Turning the keyboard into a trackpad is pretty cool

allen, and you? (seeing a mention of QuickCheck in this forum is sort of a... surprise :-P)

anyway, vis a vis "C++ is required to bootstrap LLVM" -- but LLVM is just fine at cross-compiling to whatever, no?
