Unsealed Apple Pay ruling explains Fintiv’s Texas retreat and weakens new Georgia case

9to5mac.com Zac Hall 2025-11-20 17:55:04

A newly unsealed opinion shows why Apple had little patience for Fintiv’s long-running claims in Texas. As it turns out, after seven years of litigation, Fintiv still could not point to any evidence that Apple Pay or Apple Wallet ever used the kind of “widget” described in its patent. That finding explains the company’s abrupt retreat in Texas and bodes poorly for its latest attempt to profit off Apple Pay in Georgia.

This post is based on a talk I presented at Web Directions Summit, 2024. Let’s start by addressing the elephant in the room. Why the heck am I talking about making mazes? Normally, I try to be practical when I’m writing or speaking. I want to give people tools they can use to make their coding lives better. So, I try to discuss things like creating DOM elements and processing JSON data. Because those things are practical. I would rather not waste people’s time on things they’re not going to us

← Back to the algorithm list Published on May 19th, 2024 Collaboratively editing strings of text is a common desire in peer-to-peer applications. For example, a note-taking app might represent each document as a single collaboratively-edited string of text. The algorithm presented here is one way to do this. It comes from a family of algorithms called CRDTs, which I will not describe here. It's similar to the approaches taken by popular collaborative text editing libraries such as Yjs and Auto

This 3D Printer Has Four Different Extruders. It's the Best Thing Snapmaker's Ever Made

Snapmaker's 3D printers don't always follow trends. The original Snapmaker was a small three-in-one machine that could be a 3D printer, laser cutter or CNC, depending on the type of tool head you use. For years, the company has iterated on that idea, culminating in the much larger Artisan model. After that, Snapmaker tried a dual-nozzle 3D printer called the J1. In my review of the J1, I liked that the nozzles could print two models at the same time, reducing the time it takes to print batches,
