You weren’t completely sure why, but you felt it was good. Then Apple turned on Intel and cast it outside, there to fend for itself without Tim Cook’s beatific benevolence. This wasn’t sad for, say, M1 MacBook Air users. With Apple’s own chips, laptops suddenly had more speed and more battery life. Intel, however, was quite upset.

Apple calls it Remove subject from background, which isn’t the sexiest name. To me, it’s a Photoshop-style hack that’s built into Apple’s Photos app, allowing you to – well – remove an object (or subject) from the background of a photo with minimal effort. Seriously. It’s almost too easy to use. How to use the iPhone’s new Photoshop-like feature To test out the new feature, once you have iOS 16 or iPadOS 16 on your device, open the Photos app and pick a photo that has a clearly defined subject....

Insight is perhaps best thought of as Netgear’s competitor to the popular Ubiquiti platform, providing tools for web- and app-based management of Insight-ready hardware. Like Ubiquiti it means investing in an ecosystem, as you’ll need the right mix of switches and wireless access points to make the most of the platform.

This is an investment. It’s an investment that will produce a return. It’s an investment in our future. And it’s an investment in equity as well,” he said. “Why is it that some communities and some places are just missing out?...

Freitag: “Low code is dramatically different than a decade ago, even a year or two ago because of Covid-19, and it’s trending at a feverish pitch right now.

And I want to believe that when companies say things, they really mean them. That’s why I was so, so moved when McDonald’s began experimenting with robot ordering at the drive-thru. Yes, it looked like a perfectly awful experience, but I wanted to believe that, over time, the robots would come to understand our accents and our quirky individualistic orders....
