on: Breaking the Mirror – A Look at Apple's New iPhone Remote Control Feature [video]
I'm sorry what? This is by far the least useful feature of Seqoia, it requires you to authenticate on the phone and Mac each and every time you try and use it. If my phone is in my bedroom and I want to check on my Anker battery charging status, I have to get up, put my pin in my iPhpone (16 Plus) and then fingerprint auth on my Mac (mini4 Max). Even if you select auto-auth, you stil have to authenticate each and every time you use the feature. If I have to auth on my phone, why not just save time and use that device for the info I need?

I rarely comment but PBS Spacetime is an amazing channel and Matt a great host. Even though they don't (hell, I don't) understand it all, I love watching it with my kids and see their eyes get huge when they see the excellent graphics and concepts.

Not gonna lie, when I saw this headline, I thought it was Google announcing they are killing another product

Ok, enough with the foreignpolicy.com links. That is now a blacklisted domain for me.

on: Storage Space Doubled For All Linode VPS plans
I have both Linode and DO instances but I have lots of reliability issues with my DO instance. I usually have 5-7 minutes per day where it is unreachable by my offsite Nagios host which also monitors my Linode instance. My Linode instance has had 3 minutes of unreachability in the past 30 days.

on: iOS 6.0 Causes CDN Overages
I had a similar experience. I normally consume 750-800 GB a month and on my first full month of iOS 6, Verizon said I consumed 8.89 GB. Luckily i'm grandfathered into an unlimited plan.
