I find it hilarious that as long as the iPhone had only 8 mega pixels isheep insisted that higher pixels don't make a difference... but now that the iPhone finally has similar pixel counts as 4 year old android devices they are wetting themselves over the pixel count. I remember a time when isheep scoffed at larger screens because "the smaller iPhone scene was just perfect and everything bigger was nonsense". Then 3 years after the first large screen androids hit the market apple tells their sheep to be excited about the "new" larger iPhone screen and the isheep celebrated like it was the second coming of Christ. I remember when isheep scoffed at full HD screens because "the eye could not see the difference". Then three years after full HD android devices hit the market apple tells their sheep to be excited about the first iPhone with a full HD screen and the isheep celebrated it like it was the second coming off Christ. I remember when isheep scoffed at two digit mega pixel cameras on smartphones because "higher mega pixel" was pointless and didn't make for better pictures". Then 4 years after two digit mega pixel camera android devices hit the market now apple tells their sheep to be excited about their first iphone with a two digit mega pixel camera and the isheep celebrate this "new innovation" like it's the second coming of Christ... The isheep are still scoffing at 4 and 8 core processors, quad HD displays, IR blasters, true multi tasking, even higher pixel densities, even higher mega pixel cameras, removable and fast charging batteries and so on.... Watch the isheep celebrate each and every single one of these conveniences they are scoffing at now in three to four years from now once apple "invents" them. If apple invented a round rubber thingy which allows for stuff to be moved quicker and easier and called it the "iwheel" isheep would celebrate that "new innovation" like it was the second coming of Christ too. Lol! Was the iPhone innovative and the best at one point? Absolutely. Those were the days they got my buying dollar. I used to buy blackberry when they were the best. Then I switched to the iPhone because they annihilated the competition. Then android played catch up for a few years but finally surpassed it. These days flagship android devices make the iPhone look like an etch a sketch. I'm not saying that either phone is "better" than the other. I am just saying that flagship android devices and iPhones are aimed to appeal to different kind of people... If you are a well informed and free thinking individual who wants customization and freedom... If you realize that brand loyalty is idiocy and buying the best technology bang with your hard earned dollar makes sense to you then a flagship android device will be your choice... But if you have trouble remembering which remote controls which device, you prefer "being told" what's the best for you rather than doing proper research, you like having the exact same phone as everyone else including the average teenager and the Mc Donalds fry guy... If you believe that the core message of Buddhism is "every man for himself" and adult diapers have become an acceptable replacement for regular underwear, well then... Then truly the iPhone is a much better choice for you.

Apple Unifies Cloud Services Platform Amid Open-Source Push Like other tech companies that run Web services, Apple has long relied on open source software. But unlike most others, Apple has largely done so secretly, hampering its hiring and causing other problems. Now some within Apple are hoping that is going to change. The tech firm is developing a technology platform that can power all of its Web services, such as iCloud and iTunes, which have long run on separate tech platforms, say people briefed on the effort. The new platform is based on the one Apple developed to run Siri which uses open-source infrastructure software called Mesos. Apple this summer decided to move forward with the new unified platform, although it will take a least a couple of years to implement. The system will be what’s called an “orchestrated infrastructure” that has the ability, among other things, to run Internet applications inside “containers,” which make it easier to scale the apps and make changes to them on the fly, one of these people says. Engineering manager Patrick Gates, who is overseeing the effort, has taken much of the Siri engineering team under his wing in order to run this new cloud infrastructure group. (Mr. Gates works in an org led by Internet services chief Eddy Cue.) An Apple spokeswoman did not have comment for this article. The single platform is designed to fix difficulties of integrating the Web services with one another and help some, like iCloud, roll out new features, something that’s been a challenge. But what may be more significant is how it affects Apple’s interaction with the open-source software community. Engineers inside Apple hope the new unified platform will give them more political clout to break the culture of secrecy around its use of open source software. Apple has been trying to gain expertise in open-source software that powers the world’s top Internet services. Increasing Apple’s ties to the open-source community will help the company recruit open source engineers that it needs to build better Web services and avoid the kind of technical missteps it’s had with products like iCloud. Open Secret As Siri demonstrates, engineers at Apple have increasingly relied on open-source software projects in order to develop Internet apps the way true Web companies like Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook do. But few of those have been officially disclosed by the company. Most of them are overseen by the non-profit Apache Software Foundation. (See the list at the bottom of this article for some that Apple hasn’t discussed before.) Among the few that Apple has been talked about publicly are Hadoop, which is data-analysis software, and Mesos, which allows developers to run thousands of containers on the same cluster of Web servers, for Siri; and Solr, which aids in the searching and indexing of text-based data, for Siri, Maps, and the iTunes store. Apple has contributed code to, and talked about its use of, Cassandra, which is a “distributed” database management system to handle structured data. (The group of engineers who provide Cassandra to various Apple Web services also fall under Mr. Gates.) In the past, Apple has also open sourced older technologies like WebKit for Web browsers and contributed to LLVM, a “compiler” that helps developers produce basic code. It also recently joined the Open Compute Project, a group dedicated to sharing data center hardware designs, but it isn’t actually required to share information. None of Apple’s open-source usage is surprising because it’s what all major Web companies are doing. But Apple has made a special effort of keeping most of it quiet, for reasons that go back to Steve Jobs and the priorities of its communications and product marketing groups. They believed that Apple’s products and top executives should be the primary public stars of the company, and that it’s generally nobody else’s business to know what kind of tech Apple uses. And, culturally, Apple at its core is still a device and operating system company, not a Web-services company. This means that Apple employees attending Web technology conferences often aren’t allowed to be identified as Apple employees or present some of their technical learnings, even if it can help them recruit engineers. Apple sometimes requires engineers submitting code to open-source products to do so through a third party rather than let Apple be affiliated with the code. One person who’s been through the process says they felt that submitting code to an open-source project like Mesos or Hadoop is generally “frowned upon” by managers at Apple. But the process has gotten easier over time, people who have participated in the process say. Like many other conservative companies, Apple tried to talk to the Apache Foundation about making changes to its licensing terms in order to protect Apple contributions. To no avail. Part of Apple’s fear is that if outsiders know what kind of open source tech it’s using for specific products, that might make it harder to bring legal claims against people who infringe on the IP of those products. These practices have been a drag on Apple in term of recruiting. The company has consistently tried to hire some of the best coders involved with open source tech, but in most cases those coders have refused, say people who’ve been involved in the efforts. That’s because in the open source world, engineers want to contribute code back to the community, with their name on it. It’s like a résumé-builder. (It’s how Apple found such potential recruits in the first place.) Signs of Change Still, there have been signs of change. In April, Bill Stasior, who joined Apple to lead Siri from Amazon.com three years ago, took the rare step of permitting two Siri engineers to disclose in a public engineering “meetup” at Apple’s headquarters that Siri was using Mesos software. That disclosure, which quickly made headlines in the tech blogosphere, disappointed some in the company’s product marketing group, which apparently hadn’t given its blessing ahead of time, says one person briefed on the matter. The Mesos disclosure came days before the launch of the Apple Watch, where Siri plays a key role. After the launch, conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh made reference on his show to the “new back end that Apple’s used” to improve Siri, causing more consternation among Apple’s messaging minders over the initial Mesos disclosure, this person says. Since then, Apple has embraced its association with Mesos, and Siri engineers made another presentation at a recent Mesos-focused conference in Seattle. Now, the hope is that Mr. Gates can usher in a new era of solidarity among Apple’s Web-infrastructure engineers and break down some of the restrictions on their participation in the open source community. Selected open-source technology and support that’s used (but not necessarily disclosed) by Apple for its Web products: • The standard Hadoop stack (for storing and processing large data sets) is used for things like Apple Maps, Apple Music and iTunes store recommendations and search. The stack includes HDFS, MapReduce and Zookeeper. Apple has a support contract with Cloudera, a firm that helps companies use Hadoop, according to two people with direct knowledge. • HBase, a type of database that sits on top of Hadoop. It helps power Apple Maps, Siri and Apple Music. • Elasticsearch, which helps with search indexing for Apple Maps • Riak, a kind of “NoSQL” database, was used to develop iMessage. • Kafka, which is known as a “message” system that helps process “streams” of data generated by Web services and can help with things like Web-search indexing. It was used by a startup called Topsy that Apple bought and integrated into its “spotlight” search feature, one person says. It’s also used by Apple Maps and Apple Music. • Azkaban, known as a “job scheduler” that helps developers visually schedule tasks involving processing big data. • Voldemort, a type of database. https://www.theinformation.com/apple-unifies-cloud-services-platform-amid-open-source-push

LOL! What a complete load of BS you pathetic Apple shill. The multi-tasking experience in Windows 10 walks all over the iPad, and the Surface Pro 3 just curb stomps the iPad Pro. Don't even get me started on how Apple completely ripped off the multi-tasking from Microsoft. It's the exact same impementation.

dont get marco's app. the purify guy maintains ublock (not ublock origin) and the rules he made for purify are custom and not made from easylist (which everyone else just converts to the content blocker format) which is why his is faster. marco is trying to cash in on his audience but it will probably be a neglected app cause he doesnt have to do any work to maintain it really
