Yes, it would. Something I keep in mind is that the “goal” success/failure rate really needs to be appropriate in context. We sure can’t eliminate human error, but for my work a best case 80/20 would mean I’m losing…
On iOS it wouldn’t even be that hard. There’s already a toggle to disable use of cellular connectivity. Add a separate one for non-cellular (iPadOS can connect via Ethernet), and/or a “disallow all” toggle. We are…
I absolutely hate medical marketing. I recently decided to switch dermatology practices over a combination of bad data management, unwelcome marketing for cosmetic dermatology products, and unsolicited SMSs. I never…
This write-up is a shining example of why I’ve been rebuilding my business slowly away from Microsoft technology. Entra as IdP is one of the last projects. I’m probably not going to escape Exchange Online, but I’m going…
The Domain Capture process cannot be canceled once it’s started. It’s also not required, unless by your company policy. The point is to make sure there’s not a mess on the other end when you enforce SSO for MAIDs.…
It really gives you a sense that no one at GitHub finds it necessary to search those logs. Which I find…unusual.
You’re not supposed to do the math. You’re supposed to nod and say “oh, yes, that makes sense.”
This does require large players acting in good faith. Or, at best, competently. Sometimes both of those, or neither, are in evidence. But I like the way you think. Make it a contract performance issue for legal teams to…
I’d do that even in my personal capacity. Buy a new copy every major version release (where that’s applicable). At least the new edition would be a worthwhile expense.
You can completely disable biometry if you wish to do so. Apple Pay without biometrics is somewhat annoying.
“Spicy autocomplete” absolutely made my day. Thank you.
Exactly. The marketing makes this look like something general for deploying cloud stacks. But what it seems to be is just a fast way to deploy resources to platform providers that use Stripe to bill you? Or maybe the…
The former businesses don’t run technology stacks that might, inherently by design, regurgitate any given piece of information that they encounter. They’re also purpose built to do tax/accounting work, and can’t go “off…
Speaking as someone who has used em-dashes and semicolons for years, it’s a shame what the AI companies have done with punctuation.
As someone who frequently says “don’t connect these $things” to the Internet, I appreciate the boost. Half my compute vendors are raising prices because of this insanity.
You can enable Advanced Data Protection to address that issue with iMessages. Giving users an option between both paths is usually best. Most users care a lot more that they can’t restore a usable backup of their…
And it’s typically disclosed in one way or another. Between buying a phone and reading the OS EULA to providing an E911 address to my carrier, I can count at least three disclosures of this feature. Nothing is secret or…
It isn’t restricted to Boost Mobile. It is only available on devices with the C1 or C1X modem, though. I assume this is because of specifics with the third party modems that most models in the wild have vs what Apple is…
Vivaldi might interest you as an alternative browser.
I’ve used iPhones exclusively as my daily driver phone for almost 20 years now. It’s tempting to get a phone that GrapheneOS supports at my next refresh. I generally like Apple’s technology. I like their high level…
Last week I got a survey following a pre-sales support ticket I raised with StarTech. I respond to those when I’m satisfied. I was, so I clicked the link. The first question was multiple choice. The second was a free…
I preferentially select for this software model. What applications to you make and where might I find them? I eagerly and quickly pay for major version upgrades to the independent software I buy. I’d like that model to…
The iPhone has never had such a feature _exactly_. However on iPhones that have the Emergency SOS feature biometry is disabled until you enter your passphrase/code when that feature is invoked. Biometry is also disabled…
I am endlessly frustrated about that. A good friend of mine who also works on tech is utterly disconnected from current events. Whenever I offer a discussion or say “hey did you hear about X?” his response is always…
