A woman in Clallam County, Washington has died of measles. It is the first U.S. death since 2003 to be attributed to the highly infectious disease.

Smartphone heat output has been in the news lately. This year's flagship Qualcomm chip, the Snapdragon 810, is one of the hottest SoCs on record; due to the heat, it can throttle so much that for some workloads it's actually slower than its predecessors. Batteries don't work well when they're hot, either, to the point where—despite having a power source—they will stop charging completely at high temperatures. A hot car can exacerbate all these heat problems.
Now, Chevy has a solution: it built a special air-conditioning vent just for your smartphone.
Chevy calls it "Active Phone Cooling." On select vehicle models equipped with Qi and PMA wireless charging, Chevy has a smartphone charging bin with a vent aimed right at the phone. Turn on the AC and, in addition to cooling the cabin, cool air will be blasted at the charging phone. Chevy calls this an "industry-first technology" and says the feature is available on some versions of the 2016 Impala, Malibu, Volt, and Cruze.

Apple Music Tidbits: Nicknames, Playlist Management, and More [iOS Blog]
Apple's new subscription-based music service launched earlier this week, and even if you've taken advantage of Apple's free three-month trial to see if it is worth your dime and time, there are a few things you may not have discovered yet about its features.
While our Getting Started guide gives an overview of how to get up and running, this article gives more details on some of the things you can do with Apple Music and how to make it work for you. If you've noticed any other features we haven't listed yet, feel free to let us know in the forums.
You could stick with your full Apple ID name, or change it to something that fits you better. Apple lets you add a nickname to your ID, which will be displayed on playlists and comments. Nicknames are unique, so the earlier you grab one, the better.

You can start a new station based on a song or album in either your music library or Apple Music. Tap the three dots next to the song or album to call up additional options. Then, tap "Start Station" on iOS or "New station from artist or song" on OS X to begin listening to tracks.
