Currently the only way to update included apps when you purchase a new phone is via an iOS upgrade.

As such this whole drama could be prevented by being able to upgrade a single included app via the AppStore instead of via an (i)OS upgrade.

It are the same kind of (bullshit)stories as the deck of cards stopping the bullet, or the cigarette case stopping the bullet, or the bible stopping the bullet.

How many other people at the airport which got shot did have their macbook with them and didn't get the chance to use it as a shield?

Trolling, and the media got caught hook, line and sinker. Well done!

With a patent system like this, who needs terrorists to attack you?

Fiber-based Ethernet has already different kind of connectors.

You would think that a company like GE would be big enough to be able to have their own private cloud infrastructure.

> Finally, Bitcode. Instead of uploading pre-compiled binaries, developers upload what Apple calls an âoeintermediate representationâ of the app. The App Store then automatically compiles the app just before downloading. This allows it to automatically implement part of App Slicing even if the developer hasnâ(TM)t bothered to tag their code, downloading only the 32- or 64-bit code as required.

That will bring up a nice amount of Heisenberg bugs.

"This is IP Soft, how can I help you?"

In my approach: Logic should be in configuration files, not in the code.

From all the stations you could come up with, you came up with the one which handles these kind of issues worst.

Go for ABC 702, it is mentally relaxing listening to this while my colleagues are shitting their pants around the various commercial TV station broadcasts: http://streema.com/radios/ABC_...

Because the social "everybody is allowed to wear guns" experiment is doing so great in the USA.

Now if there was an easy way to get it out of all these stars....

You should ask your synthesizer company why they have so much problems replicating the sound of a violin.

So everybody is complaining about bad software patents, but are there any good software patents which are actually doing something tricky/interesting worth patenting?
