Away from work, I use my iPad for most things and only use my laptop for writing code. As famous hacker Kevin Mitnick says in his new book “The Art of Invisibility”, using locked down devices like iPads and Chromebooks provides the most safety.

I like the jump to USB-C and I am curious what the ‘docking’ experience is when the new iPad Pro is plugged into a large USB-C compatible monitor. This might make the developer experience very good and open the door to making something like the new iPad Pro in the future be the only computing device required. Add LTE and a data plan for mobility and traveling lite.

> it's the most obvious pattern you would think of.

First initial probably.

> honestly I set it to the same

Hmm. If it's the same, last name then? Maybe a diamond or something. I heard (Mitnick's book about best practices called The Art of Invisibility, chapter 1) many people don't use the corner dots very often, or they use an initial of their name.

I unintentionally can see people's phone patterns when they do it in view. At least with a passcode you can usually try to ignore it, or you have to try to pay attention. Those pattern ones show it visually in a way that's hard to ignore.
