So which existing, old technologies are they adding to their new stuff this year? They always seem to be a decade behind android on so many things.

In PowerFaids training. We are finally moving to Jenzabar One.
*twitch*... Should I be sorry?
I know at my last college we demo'd Jenzabar One, but for some reason or another, several offices on campus absolutely hated it.
PowerFaids, I have an intimate knowledge of -- especially on the DB side of the house.

Having a hell of a time with rclone and this 1 damn file, it keeps failing to sync this 1 file to B2 for some god forsaken reason and is really ticking me off and ruining my PoC.
It'll copy the file to B2 to 100% and then start over again for some reason. . . . the file is almost 4GB (but this is smaller than other files that have finished) and the logs don't really point to a specific reason this 1 file is not syncing.
ffs!

I try to be objective with the Apple Announcements since the senior staff prefers iPhones but so far, I've seen nothing earth shattering...

All iPhones have been announced...seems like they have matched the Note Series and Pixel Phones on some abilities on the Camera...and they have simplified the naming convention: .iPhone 11, 11 Pro, and 11 Pro MAX. They will continue to sell the XR and iPhone8 in the coming year.

Interesting - they are keeping the iPhone 8.... is that because it's the last phone with a fingerprint reader?

Likely because many people don't / can't spend <1000 for a f***** phone so they need a low end model to sell to the masses.

Or overstock of iPhone 8's and XR's perhaps?

Enough of an overstock to keep a model around for an entire year (globally). You're possibly talking millions if not 10's of millions of overstock.
That seems unlikely that Apple would miscalculate so badly and produce so many more than needed.

I heard something about a trade in value on the 8s - 10s in good condition also,
So refurbished/pre owned cell phones are also selling at some carriers . -
@WrCombs yeah. What I would suspect is that there aren't any better chips out for Apple or their R&D has slowed down and opt'd to keep the older more frequently sold models around so as to have a larger offering without having to create 2-4 additional models with different chips.

Vs what? I'm using an iphone 7 and it works fine.. so I'm guessing an 8 will just be faster.

That's a subjective question. If you have an iPhone 5 or 6 absolutely way faster phone. Still an old phone (that may have been on a shelf for a few years).

Fair enough - I just was thinking as an android user thinking about switching - Would I be better off with an 8 or would I be better off with the 10r or 10s?
but now that I think about it, That depends on a) price B) personal preference based on playing with both phone.. -

The iPhone 11 is $699. Why get an ancient 8 for only $100 less.
The iPhone Pro is the expensive model.
