I love both React and Vue, but I feel the need to step in and defend Vue a little here.

Of the 3 points you listed, Vue has a section in the official documentation dedicated to Server-Side Rendering, ditto for using it with Typescript for static typing, and it even gives you replayable state with Vuex (the official redux-style library for Vue).

They really are both great options.

You're not reading that, you're implying it. It doesn't say anything at all about remote installs, and it's not even suggested.

Been using this for the last few weeks to start/stop Sonos speakers by talking to Siri on my watch. "Hey Siri, turn off the kitchen speaker." It works really well.

Interesting, I'm on the exact same version of Chrome on Yosemite and it's rendering fine. I wonder what the difference is? (unless they've just fixed it in the last 20 mins!)

Long-press is a different thing, and something iOS has had from the day 1 (obvious example is rearranging home screen).

3D Touch is about how much force you use, not how long you touch for.

I've got to say, this did trip me up too. I was trying to swipe the screen in the direction of the arrows, which it seems was the wrong way. It's beautiful, but that particular screen could certainly be a bit clearer.

You don't even need to add a contact. You can block any number on the iPhone by going into the Recents list in Phone and picking the 'Block this caller' option.

I've got quite a long list of blocked sales numbers, mostly Virgin Media and Three.

I just want to point out that they don't force you to use Facebook. I use Spotify without a Facebook account without any issues.

I'm mostly surprised that this didn't count as an existing 'business relationship', which has always been enough in the UK to send marketing emails to someone. The guy registered with the John Lewis website, and the only reason to do so is to purchase something. An odd case in my opinion.

Working alongside 2 or 3 other coworkers isn't really the same thing as an open-office though. At the moment I'm sitting in an office of approximately 30+ people. Working on my own in this environment is annoying. Working with my team (2-3 other people) is also annoying, as we can't speak without being overheard. And I'm sure when we're working as a team, and conversing a lot, we'll be annoying others who require some quiet.

A private office doesn't mean you have to work on your own, it just means you have the option to.

Yep, I did Maths A-level in the UK back in the 90s, and a TI graphing calculator was basically a requirement for the exams.

I think you two must be using an older browser that doesn't support SVG properly. The green area contains an animated wireframe of an Xbox One.

It often seems to get missed that it was Why the lucky stiff that first coined the phrase tumblelog, which is where the name Tumblr comes from. Even this article just refers to him as a 'user of Redhanded.com'.

Last year I made the decision to switch to drinking only decaf tea after 3pm, and since then I've found that I have much less trouble getting to sleep. Purely anecdotal of course, but I highly recommend it. Initially I was worried about the taste, but there's honestly not a huge difference.

Spotify is the same. $9.99 in the US, and £9.99 (US $15.55) in the UK.

I'm also in the UK. It was the Apple Store in Newcastle.

Interesting. I've had the exact same problem, and yet what happened to me was the best customer service I've ever experienced.

I had bought a 15" retina MBP at launch, but only noticed the ghosting last month. After booking an appointment with a 'genius' online I arrived ready to argue my case. What actually happened was that the 'genius' agreed with me straight away that the ghosting was intolerable, and without doing any testing besides what I'd shown him recommended that they replace the screen. I left my MBP at the Apple Store and 3 hours later received a phone call to say that the repair had been completed and my machine was ready for collection.

I don't think there's another computer supplier that:-

A. I could book an appointment online to get my laptop looked at the same day.

B. Actually has a local store with support staff.

C. Could carry out the repair at said store, the very same day.

This is one of the reasons I love services like Spotify and Netflix. They have no devices in the race, and tend to have client software for almost every platform. I can switch between phones, tablets and operating systems and still access to the same music and movies.

I could even drop Spotify and switch to Rdio if I wanted, and all I would lose are my playlists (not a big deal to me, but may be to some). These services don't lock me to devices, and I also don't feel locked into the services.

How strange. Google even highlights the term MySpace in the results as if it was one of the search terms.

Netflix's 720p streams use 2.3GB/hour, which would certainly put you over 5GB. I'm not sure about their lower quality streams though.

Good news, but sadly it's yet another country in which Spotify is charging much less than they charge the UK. Apparently £9.99 = €9.99 = $9.99.

Unfortunately it seems that GiffGaff won't be offering nano SIM cards for some time yet, so at the moment they are not an option for the iPhone 5. http://community.giffgaff.com/t5/Blog/giffgaff-nano-SIM-upda...

The user is scrolling one long page, not navigating between 'pages'. Having entries inserted into the history while scrolling seems very counter-intuitive to me.

I've used the Airplay audio out a couple of times with a previous generation Airport Express and an AppleTV 2. It works well but does have very noticeable lag, making it useless for anything but playing music. The lag was far greater than that of Airplay mirroring, which I find rather odd.

Agreed. This seems great, but ditching standard form elements for a bunch of divs and spans generally ends up an accessibility nightmare.

Backbone.UI.Button = an anchor tag with a span inside rather than a button tag. Backbone.UI.Checkbox = an anchor containing some divs rather than an input[type=checkbox]. Radio group and Pulldown give similar output.

Somebody asked them on twitter. The response isn't particularly reassuring. https://twitter.com/stevenf/status/204675630363721728

Indeed. You can basically change the site to whatever you want.

Changing the text in those boxes should be as simple as adding this to your javascript file.

$('#details .body').html("This guy ripped off my site!")

Microsoft used to provide a Mac driver for their Intellimouse range that seemed to fix this and changed the acceleration curve to match Windows which felt much more natural to me. Unfortunately since switching to a Magic Mouse I can't use it anymore.

Welcome to the cloud. Where you still have to manually save your documents by clicking on a floppy disk icon.

Somehow I don't think Google need to worry.

There's another angle on this that you haven't covered. Despite having big name founders who can easily get coverage, apps like Path and Oink all have something else in common. Design matters a lot these days, particularly when it comes to iPhone apps, and unfortunately it's something that your app is lacking in a big way. This is something that's immediate from the screenshots, and I'm sure would put any tech blogger off straight away.
