Image Size in iOS Mail App
I email myself A LOT to quickly just share an image from my iPhone to my Mac. (Thank god that will be fixed in iOS 8 & Yosemite.)
One day after filling the receiver’s address and hit “Send”, I just lock my iPhone and waiting my email to arrive on my Mac.
Waiting and waiting…. it never come.
And later on I find this on my iPhone:

Come on Apple, it’s 2014 and I am on wifi…
∞ Tesla Is Sharing Their Patents
We believe that Tesla, other companies making electric cars, and the world would all benefit from a common, rapidly-evolving technology platform.
What a significant move.
∞ Uber Sign-ups Jump 850% Over London Taxi Driver Protests
Taxi drivers have hit the streets of London today to protest against Uber – and the way Transport for London regulates the firm – but the demonstrations and related media coverage have actually helped the company to attract new customers. Across the city, Uber is reporting an 850 percent increase in sign-ups compared to the same day last week.
Technology wins. (By technology I mean, people don’t need talk to other people - there is an app for that.)
∞ Computer Passes 'Turing Test' for the First Time
A “super computer” has duped humans into thinking it is a 13-year-old boy, becoming the first machine to pass the “iconic” Turing Test.
I bet there will be disagreements, but it is a significant achievement anyway.
∞ JavaScript for Automation Release Notes
The JavaScript OSA component implements JavaScript for Automation. The component can be used from Script Editor, the global Script Menu, in the Run JavaScript Automator Action, applets/droplets, the osascript command-line tool, the NSUserScriptTask API, and everywhere else other OSA components, such as AppleScript, can be used. This includes Mail Rules, Folder Actions, Address Book Plugins, Calendar Alarms, and Message Triggers.
If this was one year earlier, I would probably continue using Evernote and OmniFocus with Automation, instead of writing my own replacement. I don’t know this is a good thing or bad thing, just hope I can release it eventually.
Hilarious. A Must Watch.

∞ 300 PB Total, Incoming Daily 600 TB
Our warehouse stores upwards of 300 PB of Hive data, with an incoming daily rate of about 600 TB.
That’s… cute.
∞ Threes: Letter to the Rip-offs
I only played a few times of the Rip-offs, however, I’m still playing Threes. I honor and admire it’s simplicity and replayability[1]. They often don’t come together, when they do, it must take a fair amount of work. It’s sad that not everyone could realize that:
We want to celebrate iteration on our ideas and ideas in general. It’s great. 2048 is a simpler, easier form of Threes that is worth investigation, but piling on top of us right when the majority of Threes players haven’t had time to understand all we’ve done with our game’s system and why we took 14 months to make it, well… that makes us sad.
On Rip-offs: with recent phenomena like Flappy Bird, I don’t know what the solution is. Moreover, like Marco said, I think there is really no solution to this. Accept it, ignore it, then make more dents in the game industry.
∞ The Go Gopher
The Go gopher is an iconic mascot and one of the most distinctive features of the Go project. In this post we’ll talk about his origins, evolution, and behavior.
Now I say Gopher is the best feature of Go. (second place goes to go fmt)
