Creating

Now, companies can utilize the smartphone space to make education a fun activity for kids, and what better way to teach kids exciting new things than with robots?

Rather than teach everyone to code, maybe it makes more sense to build tools that let some people side-step programming altogether? That’s what [Jannus is] trying to do with Hone, a piece of desktop software that allows designers to tweak the appearance of iPhone and Mac apps instantly and dynamically, without messing with code.

Second Chance

When Apple was at its worst, it did get a second chance. Ex-offenders are only looking for the same treatment. “Reviewing workers criminal history on a case by case basis …,” as Apple claims in its attempt to backtrack on a tragically flawed policy, is a start toward doing the right thing. But if Apple’s interest is to keep the community safe and prevent crime, it would not prevent people from earning an honest living.

Stuff.

Many users many have skipped the initial setup screens and missed that opportunity to import pictures and images into Photos from apps like Aperture and iPhoto. Fortunately, it’s very easy to add an iPhoto library into the Mac Photos app at any time.

Develop.

Notes.

The banks are open to an agreement, but they aren’t happy with Apple’s fee proposals and are concerned about security vulnerabilities like the ones that U.S. banks experienced as they rolled out the service, [people familiar with the matter] said.

Michael Bromwich, who became Apple’s monitor after it was found liable for conspiring to raise e-book prices, said in a report on Thursday that Apple objected to providing information and “inappropriately” attempted to limit his activities.

Too Much Feelings

From ‘family owned’ and ‘created with love’, to ‘hand crafted’ and ‘authentic’, food-packet rhetoric is now mainly in the business of selling nice feelings.
