In recent history, I’ve consistently seen a new laptop battery exceed Apple’s specification. Apple has also made great efforts to tell the consumer that they believe battery life is important, so the company seems to be doing what it can to deliver long battery life. Apple’s always going to make a laptop that can last a working day.
The new MacBook is Apple skating to where the puck will be, and for that reason, it may not be suitable for every user. But, as a whole, it's a gorgeous, tiny, full-fledged OS X computer. It's a wonder that Apple was able to provide a high-resolution Retina display, a full-size keyboard and a full-size multitouch trackpad with such a long-lasting battery on a device this size.
Interesting tidbit from the WWDC schedule: Neither "What's New In Cocoa" nor "What's New in Cocoa Touch" is in Presidio, the largest room.

TextExpander has become more versatile than ever with version 5.0, adding more options for syncing your snippets, including iCloud Drive. You'll also now receive snippet suggestions, based on phrases that you type consistently. For instance, while writing an article about TextExpander, you might get a notification that says "You've been typing 'TextExpander' a lot."
Something I love about Drafts is something that I love about the best Apple software: you don't have to do anything. You don't have to study the manual, you don't even have to know that there are other features than the ones you want to use now. Yet when you want to do more, Drafts has much, much more.
Dropbox itself keeps previous versions of your files, but Revisions for Dropbox makes it easier to get to those older versions and adds in a few extra features.
Every day the app updates with a new movie deal, ranging from "from blockbusters to acclaimed indies, and everything in between," at a discount which goes up to 70 percent off of the original price.
In Joe’s case, the problem persisted even after fully wiping and reinstalling iOS on his phone, but after a little investigation he found disabling Family Sharing on his device caused the battery drain to disappear. This has been found to be the case for a number of other iPhone users.
It’s a shame the screen isn’t better, and that everything about this device screams of pocket protectors. It’s a shame the interface is messy and unattractive, that it feels like a toy.
I want the uncluttered and productive idea Pebble is selling. But I don’t want the watch.
“A week from Monday at our developer conference we’ll release a preview so that developers will be able to write code natively and have access to sensors, and we’re really excited about that.”
Switches offer boutique code organization. They coalesce run-on conditionals (if then else if then else if then else….) into well-structured, better-organized constructs.
Here’s more than you wanted to and less than you probably needed to know about this terrific Swift feature.
There are two types of people in the world: those with hundreds of unread messages, and those who can’t relax until their inboxes are cleared out.
What you should keep in mind is that the mobile app for Facebook Messenger defaults to sending a location with all messages.
Jeffrey Macesin said he was using his smartwatch to change songs when a provincial officer pulled him over on a road near Pincourt, Que.
Happy iPhone update: I've moved the WWDC app, which used to be buried in a folder on the second screen of my home screen, to the first screen. Yes, I'm ready to learn about all the new APIs that I haven't got the time to use.
One day, one of the major pizza chains will release a pizza with a whole barbecue chicken embedded in the crust or a sauce which is actually the vomit of someone who has just eaten 10 pizzas in 10 minutes.
