What I shared on Twitter, and a bit more…
Ivy Plus universities, ~$140bn endowments, ~11,000 low-income students. Good ROI? #Gladwell isn’t happy. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/malcolm-gladwell-revisionist-history_us_578d2c6fe4b0c53d5cfa79e0
Tom Cruise did it in #MissionImpossible 4. Now you can too with #LG vacuum cleaners. I am so getting one for my mum! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOGgizbOdVM
Remember SnowLeopard as refinement upgrade to Leopard many years ago? #iOS10 is like that to #iOS9, runs smoothly on #iPhone5 and above.
Law enforcements rely on money trail to catch #Ransonware hackers. What’s if they do it for free and for other purposes? #Security #Android
We are not worried about 900m #Android devices with security bug because no one has deployed #ransomware on it yet. http://readwrite.com/2016/08/10/future-hackers-might-turn-off-heating-pay-dl4/
How #Apple learnt from Maps failure and become stronger than ever. Biggest beta programs and can still keep secrets.

It’s good to be #Apple, so much free media coverage in Aug-Oct each year. Even small black squares can wow people! http://www.macrumors.com/2016/08/10/apple-a10-chip-first-photo-weibo/
Start saying goodbye to #Flash content. #Adobe bought #Macromedia for $3.4bn 11 yrs ago. #Apple helped to kill it. https://chrome.googleblog.com/2016/08/flash-and-chrome.html
If you think a lock is a strong #security device for your home, search for lock bumping or bump keys on #youtube. http://thenextweb.com/insider/2016/08/09/buying-a-smart-lock-might-be-a-dumb-investment/
As a dev, I want #Apple to open up #NFC, but I also know it is their choice. And I trust #ApplePay because of this. http://www.afr.com/technology/apple-says-australias-banks-pose-a-security-threat-to-iphones-20160809-gqogpr
Can #IoT and #Smarthome be so scary? Is it as bad as the security threat to over 900m #Android devices? 🙂 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfnDTvbtDUI
Clever and evil marketing from #Google, it makes running out of space seems like an #iOS only issue. We know better! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEK37MBTUPk
