@gruber, your use of the phrase "within the law" in the same sentence as the current US executive branch is risible.

@daringfireball Regardless of who pressed the button to send the ad, the mere *capability* to show ads in Wallet doesn't build itself. So your last sentence is essentially calling for a new SVP of software engineering. (To which I would agree.)
@mdione @lcamtuf the pythagorean theorem cares about the *length* of the side, not the value of its endpoint. (e.g., imagine a triangle with vertices at (1, 0); (1, 1); (2, 0) — you wouldn't call the length of the vertical side "2". similarly, flip that entire set-up over the X axis — you wouldn't call the length of the vertical side "-2"). so, the length of the vertical side is abs(i - 0) which is 1, not i. sqrt(1^2+1^2) = sqrt(2)
