    Apple’s Create ML is a nice feature with an unclear purpose

    Apple announced a new feature for developers today called Create ML. Because machine learning is a commonly used tool in the developer kit these days, it makes sense that Apple would want to improve the process. But what it has here, essentially local training, doesn’t seem particularly useful

    Apple’s WWDC 2018 highlights little things adding up, especially in iOS 12
    https://www.cnet.com/news/apples-wwdc-2018-smartly-sees-more-polish-than-jaw-dropping-changes-ios12-facetime-arkit-siri/

    It’s more about polish, less about jaw-dropping changes.

    No, it’s nothing ground-breaking. But it’s more palatable to Apple’s huge base of users.

    Apple jams Facebook’s web-tracking tools
    http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-44360273

    Apple will attempt to frustrate tools used by Facebook to automatically track web users, within the next version of its iOS and Mac operating systems.

    “We’re shutting that down,” declared Apple’s software chief Craig Federighi, at the firm’s developers conference.

    He added that the web browser Safari would ask owners’ permission before allowing the social network to monitor their activity.

    The move is likely to add to tensions between the two companies.

    Apple’s chief executive Tim Cook had previously described Facebook’s practices as being an “invasion of privacy” – an opinion Facebook’s founder Mark Zuckerberg subsequently denounced as being “glib”.

    https://techcrunch.com/2018/06/04/apple-announces-a-very-international-group-of-apple-design-award-winners/?utm_source=tcfbpage&sr_share=facebook

    The awards, now in their 21st year, are meant to highlight those apps that set a benchmark for high-quality design, taking into consideration things like the user interface and user experience, originality and other factors that represent those types of applications that Apple would like to see more of in its App Store.
