While that’s the biggest thing of note, there are some other new features and enhancements....

After being announced as a film, Inhumans spent years battling rumors that it was being cancelled before Marvel finally revealed the project would be coming to TV instead. In an unprecedented deal, the studio teamed ABC up with IMAX to produce an 8-episode series for network television that would be financed by the latter.

Earlier this month a racial GIF slur managed to sneak its way into the GIPHY’s sticker library.

Phil Schiller at WWDC 2013 If there’s one thing we’ve learned from the latest Apple v. Samsung trial, it’s that Phil Schiller isn’t as cool, calm, and collected at Apple HQ as he appears at each Apple keynote. We’ve already seen the Apple SVP of Worldwide Marketing fret over Android marketshare and Media Arts Lab not being on par with Samsung’s advertising, and Business Insider has covered an additional email exchange revealed in the trial where an irate Phil Schiller proves he is most definitely a product of Steve Jobs....

Discovered by an anonymous tipster, iOS 7’s “Accessibility” section now includes a feature that allows you to control your iPhone or iPad with left or right head movements. We’ve tested this ourselves and found it to be quite accurate, but it’s quite tedious to control your device this way since it cycles through all of the options on the screen and you move your head when it is bordering around the option you want....

The new version of Apple’s mobile OS will be available on the iPhone 4, 4S, 5, 5c, and 5S, the third- and fourth-generation iPads, iPad mini, and fifth-generation iPod touch.

Most of the Web applications are usually front-ends for databases and contain user-specific data, and use ‘sessions’ to maintain their state. A session is created once a user is authenticated by entering a username and password. This type of authentication is called form-based authentication and this is true for HTTP authentication as well. Once the authentication is successful, the user can now browse the Web application seamlessly. Secure Cookies One of the most popular ways a session is maintained is by sending a Set-Cookie HTTP response header to the browser....

It’s been widely reported that the iPhone 7 is destined to ditch the dated headphone jack in favor of wireless audio solutions and a Lightning adapter for wired headphones and speakers, and now internal iOS software code seems to all but confirm the rumor.
