iPad feature request: auto "deep sleep" after 24h idle (10 seconds to wake is okay). iPads used to last over 30 days on standby, but every time I pick one up now after less than a week it's dead
Steve Jobs announcing the iPad 2:
This thread is worth reading if you are a Google docs user.
Short version: When you export a document from Google Docs, Google replaces all your hyperlinks with links that allows Google to monitor the interactions of everyone you share your document with.
This hidden link replacement can potentially be used to build a model of your professional relations, where people who interact more with your content are considered a stronger relation.
Think about the implications.

Today I found out that google docs infects html exports with spyware, no scripts, but links in your document are replaced with invisible google tracking redirects. I was using their software because a friend wanted me to work with him on a google doc, he is a pretty big fan of their software, but we were both somehow absolutely shocked that they would go that far.
Glass theme?

Happy 25th Birthday, Aqua!!! Aqua raised the bar for what a Desktop UI should be. Steve Jobs was so giddy in introducing Aqua to the world back in 2000.
We’ve yet to get a UI redesign again of this magnitude. Yosemite removed the magic of Aqua and Big Sur downright killed it.
Here are some gorgeous renditions of Aqua by Finnish designer @tuomas_h. Find this and more on his Dribbble account.

> AquaUI is a love letter to the Macintosh of the Aqua era—with its uncompromising attention to detail, futuristic design, and “lickable” visual style.
> The goal is not necessarily to recreate 2000s-era Aqua visuals pixel by pixel: instead, we aim to imagine how the Aqua design language could have evolved if it had been allowed to do so.
