“They play together, they work together, and they protect each other,” Robert Brunner, the former Apple design chief, later said of the team. At one of our meetings, Ive reminded me of a short article that Bono wrote about him in Time. It said, “To watch him with his workmates in the holy of holies, Apple’s design lab, or on a night out is to observe a very rare esprit de corps. They love their boss, and he loves them. What the competitors don’t seem to understand is you cannot get people this smart to work this hard just for money.” Ive, Bono’s friend, described these comments as “shockingly perceptive”—which is an unusual response to praise, even shared praise. But the strength, and the professional advantage, of the team’s solidarity is one of Ive’s recurring themes. He was determined to counter “spiteful,” if infrequent, claims that the studio’s spirit is not as collegial as it looks. Doug Satzger, who left Apple in 2008, and now runs industrial design at Intel, told Fast Company that “Jony has a very political agenda when it comes to his positioning within the company. He would tell me, ‘Anytime you meet with Steve, I gotta know.’ ” (Satzger declined to comment.)

In a past life, I worked in manufacturing and then as a manufacturing consultant, traveling all over the U.S. and helping manufacturers learn about and implement new technologies, processes and techniques.

While I tried to stick with Xiaomi’s offerings for the purposes of this review, it became simply impossible to do so when, for example, I needed to access the photos synced to my Google account. You may not be able to delete Xiaomi’s apps, but if you are already invested in Google’s ecosystem, it’s also not particularly difficult to just keep on doing what you’re doing. You’ll just have to go through a ton of clicks and confirmations to change your defaults; boy, Xiaomi really doesn’t want you to change those.

A row of capacitive switches is positioned below the rotaries to control maximum A/C and defrost settings, plus Dynamic Stability Control and Hill Descent Control functions. When not in use, these icons are illuminated in white, and will switch to amber when engaged.

“(Florence) was by far the most devastating hurricane I’ve been through,” the Deli’s namesake said, thinking back to Hugo and Andrew, whose worst damage was pulling the building’s roof access out of its supports and leaving it on top of the Long Building next door.

We also did the battery drawdown test with the Pentium N4200 unit, also with the 1,000 nits screen. Interestingly, despite the much lower Thermal Design Power of just 6 watts versus the 15 watts of the Core processor, power draw was between 3% and 9% higher. This may be due to the more sophisticated power savings technologies in 8th gen Core processors or it could simply be an optimization issue in preproduction units.

Now, Hudson — a man who still uses a flip phone — has his eyes on the future. He said he had planned to upgrade in phases, but the hurricane gave him the opportunity to get it all done at once. The walls of the front dining area and bar have been repainted, there’s a modern jukebox with a photo booth feature, the game room on the second floor has been made over into a conference room with a hardwood floor, among other changes.

The Edward Field wallets, which come in brown and black colors and in sizes for all iPhone 6/6s models (as well as one for iPhone SE and iPhone 5/5s), don’t offer as much protection as beefier cases. But mine has saved my iPhone during multiple drops — and the leather looks much more beautiful than common polycarbonate. Sorry, cows.

I kept running my hands over the tower’s concrete walls. Infused with Carrara marble and poured by construction workers who wore white gloves, they feel smooth as silk.

Architectural acoustics—a field that integrates architecture, building construction, and the physics of sound—is part building engineering (mitigating noise and vibrations) and part design. In the latter, more glamorous role, acousticians deploy a wide range of materials and construction techniques to sculpt pleasant-sounding spaces that service a building’s function, be it a restaurant or a concert hall. Unfortunately, acoustics is often an afterthought, something used to correct errors after construction if noise proves annoying. By then, it’s too late.
