It's almost time for the World Cup. Before the tournament, we'll be previewing each of the top 15 teams by FIFA rankings that made the tournament. Why the top 15? Because that's how many we needed to do in order for the USMNT to make the cut. You can read all of our pre...

I had to wait 4 years to buy my dream camera.

Instead of thinking about on-device models and cloud models, a better framing for Apple vs. everyone else is on-device context and cloud context. Apple is focused on apps, privacy, and security, at the expense of speed and universal access anywhere. There can’t really be a w...
