• Haliphax\’s Email: Red Hat OpenShift (Heroku alternative)?

• Docker love!

• Nexus 5 Talk

• You all hate the iPad Air

• AnandTech | The iPad Air Review

Since the iPad Air uses the same A7 silicon as the iPhone 5s, it also uses the same on-die GPU as the 5s: IMG’s PowerVR G6430. This is a 4-cluster configuration of IMG’s latest graphics hardware, running at some relatively high frequency.
