183: I Filed a Radar

►
it is so hot in this room and so he mad
[TS]
00:00:04
◼
►
the humidity has been brutal here it's
[TS]
00:00:07
◼
►
only 77 degrees and i'm dying in this
[TS]
00:00:09
◼
►
room because it's so humid and of course
[TS]
00:00:11
◼
►
the product 90 degrees in his room
[TS]
00:00:13
◼
►
I feel great air-conditioning's on I
[TS]
00:00:15
◼
►
haven't put my slippers on mid-show
[TS]
00:00:16
◼
►
cause my feet were getting a little bit
[TS]
00:00:19
◼
►
we should probably actually get started
[TS]
00:00:22
◼
►
no that's making on the show none of it
[TS]
00:00:24
◼
►
not come on no yeah so here you know how
[TS]
00:00:27
◼
►
I'm gonna make you put some of that in
[TS]
00:00:28
◼
►
the show
[TS]
00:00:28
◼
►
watch this hey speaking of cars we
[TS]
00:00:31
◼
►
should probably do some follow-up
[TS]
00:00:32
◼
►
starting with more reasons for qnx akc
[TS]
00:00:35
◼
►
do we have any follow-up he just said
[TS]
00:00:38
◼
►
that so Casey do we have any follow-up
[TS]
00:00:43
◼
►
who he should probably start with the
[TS]
00:00:45
◼
►
follow-up Marco that your you make an
[TS]
00:00:46
◼
►
excellent point and we had an individual
[TS]
00:00:49
◼
►
right in with more reasons for using qnx
[TS]
00:00:51
◼
►
and these actually were the to my ears
[TS]
00:00:55
◼
►
and eyes the best reasons I've heard yet
[TS]
00:00:58
◼
►
and what if we basically boiled down to
[TS]
00:01:00
◼
►
was incredibly fast boot times were in
[TS]
00:01:04
◼
►
poor generally important for cars
[TS]
00:01:06
◼
►
because you don't want to say have to
[TS]
00:01:08
◼
►
wait until you're five minutes down the
[TS]
00:01:09
◼
►
road before your air conditioning or
[TS]
00:01:11
◼
►
radio turns on or something like that
[TS]
00:01:12
◼
►
and the other reason that this
[TS]
00:01:14
◼
►
individual gave was you know if you
[TS]
00:01:16
◼
►
think about it the instrument clusters
[TS]
00:01:18
◼
►
on a lot of cars are often driven by
[TS]
00:01:20
◼
►
some sort of display or perhaps driven
[TS]
00:01:22
◼
►
by signal that's coming off some
[TS]
00:01:24
◼
►
connects derived computer and those need
[TS]
00:01:28
◼
►
to be real time I mean that data needs
[TS]
00:01:30
◼
►
to show you exactly how fast you're
[TS]
00:01:32
◼
►
going right freaking now and so having a
[TS]
00:01:34
◼
►
real time I was like you index makes
[TS]
00:01:36
◼
►
that sort of thing a lot easier by
[TS]
00:01:39
◼
►
Tesla's system is not based in qns i'm
[TS]
00:01:41
◼
►
pretty sure it's just some kind of linux
[TS]
00:01:42
◼
►
and you can tell like you can tell you
[TS]
00:01:45
◼
►
did because like you know something like
[TS]
00:01:47
◼
►
again like that last one like most of
[TS]
00:01:49
◼
►
the time it works fine but sometimes
[TS]
00:01:52
◼
►
like we were of state and and I heard we
[TS]
00:01:56
◼
►
were driving around found out directions
[TS]
00:01:57
◼
►
and the map is getting a little bit
[TS]
00:01:59
◼
►
wonky like it was starting to like flick
[TS]
00:02:01
◼
►
out and slow down a little bit and like
[TS]
00:02:02
◼
►
not update quickly enough and that's
[TS]
00:02:04
◼
►
that's great to like you know when
[TS]
00:02:05
◼
►
you're following a map to enter my turn
[TS]
00:02:07
◼
►
and just doesn't update so you're
[TS]
00:02:08
◼
►
looking at like the last turn from 30
[TS]
00:02:11
◼
►
seconds ago instead that's fun and then
[TS]
00:02:13
◼
►
there's one point where it made the turn
[TS]
00:02:17
◼
►
signal clicking sound when the turntable
[TS]
00:02:20
◼
►
wasn't on a what there was in one of the
[TS]
00:02:24
◼
►
like I described last episode that I've
[TS]
00:02:26
◼
►
had to reboot it three times so far over
[TS]
00:02:28
◼
►
the three or four months whatever it is
[TS]
00:02:29
◼
►
one of the times that i had to reboot it
[TS]
00:02:32
◼
►
immediately before hand the turn signal
[TS]
00:02:35
◼
►
was not clicking like it would turn on
[TS]
00:02:36
◼
►
and the light with the indicator blinks
[TS]
00:02:38
◼
►
in the dash but you wouldn't have a
[TS]
00:02:39
◼
►
click noise so obviously the clicking
[TS]
00:02:41
◼
►
noise is made by the center console
[TS]
00:02:43
◼
►
computer like that it's adding it to the
[TS]
00:02:45
◼
►
sound system and all likelihood anyway
[TS]
00:02:48
◼
►
so so the sims one of the symptoms I
[TS]
00:02:51
◼
►
knew something was wacky this time was
[TS]
00:02:53
◼
►
the turn signal noise started clicking
[TS]
00:02:55
◼
►
when a certain terms of was not on i was
[TS]
00:02:58
◼
►
driving straight down a road ahead and
[TS]
00:02:59
◼
►
text it like that was it
[TS]
00:03:01
◼
►
it's so that i rebooted again DX
[TS]
00:03:03
◼
►
goodness so yes I i would apprehend
[TS]
00:03:07
◼
►
anyone it's not booted the turn signal
[TS]
00:03:09
◼
►
does not like one is rebooting you can
[TS]
00:03:11
◼
►
turn and ended the indicator on the on
[TS]
00:03:12
◼
►
the dashboard did blink when it was when
[TS]
00:03:15
◼
►
it when the computer is booting like it
[TS]
00:03:16
◼
►
was still blinking and so I assumed this
[TS]
00:03:18
◼
►
signal is still on i hope the light was
[TS]
00:03:20
◼
►
still blinking outside the car but
[TS]
00:03:22
◼
►
there's no sound again it's like one of
[TS]
00:03:24
◼
►
those things where like when you tie
[TS]
00:03:26
◼
►
these things to software that you know
[TS]
00:03:28
◼
►
II you are at the whim of the software's
[TS]
00:03:30
◼
►
stability responsiveness up time you
[TS]
00:03:35
◼
►
know it's similar to like one of the
[TS]
00:03:37
◼
►
things that that I didn't like so much
[TS]
00:03:39
◼
►
for the Apple watch is so many at so
[TS]
00:03:43
◼
►
many interactions are tied to force
[TS]
00:03:44
◼
►
touch and when you when you push really
[TS]
00:03:47
◼
►
hard on the watch face too
[TS]
00:03:51
◼
►
and you expect that button click even
[TS]
00:03:53
◼
►
though it's not really a button even
[TS]
00:03:54
◼
►
though it's all fake and simulated you
[TS]
00:03:55
◼
►
know you expect that better click back
[TS]
00:03:58
◼
►
immediately as if it were a button and
[TS]
00:04:00
◼
►
the same thing with all the force touch
[TS]
00:04:01
◼
►
trackpad like they have the same the
[TS]
00:04:03
◼
►
same requirement like it has to respond
[TS]
00:04:05
◼
►
like the physical object that it is
[TS]
00:04:07
◼
►
mimicking right has to be quick it has
[TS]
00:04:09
◼
►
to be immediate
[TS]
00:04:10
◼
►
there can't be any delay on the watch
[TS]
00:04:12
◼
►
you know the watch is very slow hardware
[TS]
00:04:14
◼
►
wise and sometimes that sometimes the
[TS]
00:04:15
◼
►
software gets coming up a little bit and
[TS]
00:04:17
◼
►
so you push and sometimes delay before
[TS]
00:04:19
◼
►
actually clicks back at you and it
[TS]
00:04:22
◼
►
totally breaks the illusion that makes
[TS]
00:04:23
◼
►
it feel broken or cheap or wrong or you
[TS]
00:04:27
◼
►
whatever the case may be and that's
[TS]
00:04:28
◼
►
actually one concern I have with the
[TS]
00:04:31
◼
►
force touch home button that is rumored
[TS]
00:04:33
◼
►
to be in the next iphone that like you
[TS]
00:04:35
◼
►
know if you get if if you push that home
[TS]
00:04:38
◼
►
button and the iphone software is like a
[TS]
00:04:40
◼
►
little bit you know a little bit
[TS]
00:04:42
◼
►
overwhelmed or buggy or whatever if you
[TS]
00:04:44
◼
►
push that and you don't get a click feel
[TS]
00:04:46
◼
►
back first few seconds or at all like
[TS]
00:04:49
◼
►
that's gonna feel really broken really
[TS]
00:04:51
◼
►
quickly so anyway
[TS]
00:04:53
◼
►
similar thing with like this car stuff
[TS]
00:04:54
◼
►
like you know back to this follow-up
[TS]
00:04:55
◼
►
saying the QX is really good for boot
[TS]
00:04:58
◼
►
time and response times of interactions
[TS]
00:05:00
◼
►
like I totally get that and I totally
[TS]
00:05:03
◼
►
respect that because when you're tying
[TS]
00:05:05
◼
►
things to controls of physical object
[TS]
00:05:08
◼
►
that makes a big difference my complaint
[TS]
00:05:10
◼
►
about the ancient iphone 6 that I'm
[TS]
00:05:11
◼
►
using is that I have a physical home
[TS]
00:05:13
◼
►
button and I press it and it always you
[TS]
00:05:15
◼
►
know goes in just like you said I feel
[TS]
00:05:17
◼
►
that physical feedback immediately but
[TS]
00:05:18
◼
►
you know it doesn't happen immediately
[TS]
00:05:19
◼
►
springboard doesn't appear immediately
[TS]
00:05:22
◼
►
that's what does it by clicking and then
[TS]
00:05:24
◼
►
look at my phone like what are you what
[TS]
00:05:25
◼
►
are you doing well I push the button
[TS]
00:05:27
◼
►
I'm know i know i push it because it
[TS]
00:05:28
◼
►
went in and then i went out and then
[TS]
00:05:30
◼
►
I'll ok now the animation starting i'm
[TS]
00:05:32
◼
►
getting picking my old age I don't know
[TS]
00:05:34
◼
►
getting picky
[TS]
00:05:35
◼
►
what you should really do to make it
[TS]
00:05:37
◼
►
seem like your phone is even older
[TS]
00:05:39
◼
►
instead of saying my old iphone 6 you
[TS]
00:05:41
◼
►
should say my first iphone which i'm
[TS]
00:05:43
◼
►
still using that's true yeah I don't
[TS]
00:05:46
◼
►
think my cell phone sex is getting
[TS]
00:05:47
◼
►
slower but i'm just getting less and
[TS]
00:05:49
◼
►
less patient for like when it doesn't
[TS]
00:05:51
◼
►
respond i mean and i know it's not just
[TS]
00:05:52
◼
►
being slowly my ipad pro then I points7
[TS]
00:05:55
◼
►
driver was pretty darn fast i still feel
[TS]
00:05:57
◼
►
like when i hit the home button on that
[TS]
00:05:58
◼
►
sometimes I have to wait I want them to
[TS]
00:06:00
◼
►
be instant just wait for the new touch
[TS]
00:06:02
◼
►
ID sensor it's pretty damn fast
[TS]
00:06:05
◼
►
yeah I know I that use my wife so I know
[TS]
00:06:07
◼
►
that the touch ID sensor scans I'm just
[TS]
00:06:09
◼
►
saying like I didn't feel like sometimes
[TS]
00:06:11
◼
►
it's not responding to me as immediately
[TS]
00:06:13
◼
►
as it has I feel like it should
[TS]
00:06:15
◼
►
who knows anyway the other thing this
[TS]
00:06:18
◼
►
person to say about you know why why do
[TS]
00:06:20
◼
►
cars have crappy hardware we read some
[TS]
00:06:23
◼
►
other feedback from someone who works on
[TS]
00:06:25
◼
►
these systems talking about the how the
[TS]
00:06:28
◼
►
car manufacturers want to save money and
[TS]
00:06:29
◼
►
pinch pennies and I said that was silly
[TS]
00:06:30
◼
►
couple of the factors that were also
[TS]
00:06:33
◼
►
mentioned many other people are really
[TS]
00:06:34
◼
►
very best
[TS]
00:06:34
◼
►
person is that this a long lead time on
[TS]
00:06:36
◼
►
hardware that goes into cars that
[TS]
00:06:38
◼
►
development cycles are really long so
[TS]
00:06:40
◼
►
they have to pick hardware that's
[TS]
00:06:41
◼
►
available like three years before the
[TS]
00:06:43
◼
►
carbon comes out and you know maybe it's
[TS]
00:06:45
◼
►
even longer so maybe like four or five
[TS]
00:06:46
◼
►
years but I'm coming over to pick
[TS]
00:06:48
◼
►
something that is currently like 3 45
[TS]
00:06:50
◼
►
years old by the time the ships in the
[TS]
00:06:51
◼
►
car and finally stuff in cars has to
[TS]
00:06:54
◼
►
operate extremes of temperature if you
[TS]
00:06:57
◼
►
ever left your phone on the dashboard or
[TS]
00:06:59
◼
►
even in a sealed cubby inside your car
[TS]
00:07:01
◼
►
like not in the Sun but just tried
[TS]
00:07:03
◼
►
taking your phone and putting it in the
[TS]
00:07:04
◼
►
glove box or in the little console thing
[TS]
00:07:06
◼
►
anywhere inside your car on a hot day
[TS]
00:07:08
◼
►
when you come back
[TS]
00:07:09
◼
►
chances are good after being away for
[TS]
00:07:11
◼
►
several hours in the middle of the day
[TS]
00:07:12
◼
►
your device will refuse to function
[TS]
00:07:14
◼
►
because the temperature is too high and
[TS]
00:07:16
◼
►
the the chips in the car obviously can't
[TS]
00:07:18
◼
►
do that they have to continue working
[TS]
00:07:20
◼
►
even when they're like 250 degrees or
[TS]
00:07:22
◼
►
whatever and they have to continue
[TS]
00:07:23
◼
►
working on its negative 40 these are all
[TS]
00:07:26
◼
►
real temperatures not crazy Celsius
[TS]
00:07:28
◼
►
yeah haha similar like like if you ever
[TS]
00:07:31
◼
►
heard of like how slow the computers are
[TS]
00:07:34
◼
►
on satellites or the space shuttle
[TS]
00:07:35
◼
►
because like you know like you your
[TS]
00:07:37
◼
►
stories you know about like how they're
[TS]
00:07:39
◼
►
still running something that's about as
[TS]
00:07:40
◼
►
fast as like a 486 or something like
[TS]
00:07:42
◼
►
that and like the reason one of the
[TS]
00:07:43
◼
►
reasons why they have to use such slow
[TS]
00:07:46
◼
►
types of hardware is that they have to
[TS]
00:07:48
◼
►
operate in extreme conditions that would
[TS]
00:07:50
◼
►
just kill any you know like the chip
[TS]
00:07:52
◼
►
than an iphone and so it's similar but
[TS]
00:07:54
◼
►
less severe in a car
[TS]
00:07:55
◼
►
yeah that's their excuse but like still
[TS]
00:07:57
◼
►
it's a little ridiculous that you know
[TS]
00:07:59
◼
►
that the value is the washing machine
[TS]
00:08:00
◼
►
ships they're using like they're slower
[TS]
00:08:02
◼
►
than the ones in space probes the space
[TS]
00:08:04
◼
►
probes have powerpc 60 ones that are
[TS]
00:08:05
◼
►
like rad hardened in them and they're
[TS]
00:08:08
◼
►
using chips that are like from a gameboy
[TS]
00:08:10
◼
►
advance so it's see moresee that are
[TS]
00:08:13
◼
►
made a gameboy advance fast and that
[TS]
00:08:14
◼
►
anyway bottom line we have the
[TS]
00:08:16
◼
►
technology we can make the hardware in
[TS]
00:08:18
◼
►
cars better and i think we probably want
[TS]
00:08:20
◼
►
to shorten up the the cycle time on that
[TS]
00:08:23
◼
►
too i know it sort of all developed as
[TS]
00:08:25
◼
►
it as one big unit but you just can't
[TS]
00:08:27
◼
►
afford to do that if we have if a
[TS]
00:08:29
◼

manufacturer can show you in just a year

off of the cycle time and they can have
[TS]
00:08:32
◼
►
a year newer electronics that can make a
[TS]
00:08:34
◼
►
big difference i think especially like
[TS]
00:08:36
◼
►
that as the as the infotainment systems
[TS]
00:08:38
◼
►
and even the instrument clusters and all
[TS]
00:08:39
◼

that stuff becomes a more important

figure that software out is gonna have a

big advantage
[TS]
00:08:52

alright tell us about audio sync in
[TS]
00:08:55
◼
►
quartz crystals which we've gotten a lot
[TS]
00:08:57
◼
►
of feedback about market you want to
[TS]
00:08:59
◼
►
cover this
[TS]
00:09:00
◼
►
yeah sure so basically so you know the
[TS]
00:09:02
◼
►
last couple of days we discussed a while
[TS]
00:09:05
◼
►
back i discuss my my podcast tool to
[TS]
00:09:07
◼
►
automatically sync up tracks that were
[TS]
00:09:09
◼
►
recorded locally for each person
[TS]
00:09:11
◼
►
multi-person recording and then you know
[TS]
00:09:13
◼
►
sync it up to the master track because
[TS]
00:09:16
◼
►
if you try to import those tracks
[TS]
00:09:18
◼
►
manually you think it up the difference
[TS]
00:09:20
◼
►
in the in like the sense of time that
[TS]
00:09:24
◼
►
each person's audio interface had it
[TS]
00:09:26
◼
►
caused the problem called drift where if
[TS]
00:09:29
◼
►
you sink of our recordings like right up
[TS]
00:09:30
◼
►
front the beginning of the show an hour
[TS]
00:09:32
◼
►
in we might be out of sync by like half
[TS]
00:09:35
◼
►
a second or a second my microphone
[TS]
00:09:37
◼
►
interface the little you know converter
[TS]
00:09:39
◼
►
in it that samples the audio at 44100
[TS]
00:09:42
◼
►
times per second has a very very very
[TS]
00:09:44
◼
►
slightly different interpretation of
[TS]
00:09:47
◼
►
what that means like have of how long a
[TS]
00:09:49
◼
►
second is or how how many times it has
[TS]
00:09:51
◼
►
to be then the one in cases of John's
[TS]
00:09:53
◼
►
computers and over time that very very
[TS]
00:09:55
◼
►
tiny error can add up to quite a lot and
[TS]
00:09:58
◼
►
so this caused the problem of drift
[TS]
00:09:59
◼
►
we've gotten lots of feedback about why
[TS]
00:10:02
◼
►
this happens last episode I speculated
[TS]
00:10:05
◼
►
that you're making these these
[TS]
00:10:07
◼
►
components physical components and any
[TS]
00:10:10
◼
►
little tiny bit of imprecision and
[TS]
00:10:13
◼
►
making them when you when you are taking
[TS]
00:10:15
◼
►
44,000 samples per second over two hours
[TS]
00:10:19
◼
►
a very small variance in the clock
[TS]
00:10:23
◼
►
performance of two different physical
[TS]
00:10:25
◼
►
devices will cause them to to disagree
[TS]
00:10:28
◼
►
into drift over time like this
[TS]
00:10:29
◼
►
so my speculation was basically like
[TS]
00:10:31
◼
►
it's not really possible to make
[TS]
00:10:32
◼
►
something that is that is cheap and a
[TS]
00:10:34
◼
►
computer like this that that is more
[TS]
00:10:36
◼
►
accurate than that and we have to deal
[TS]
00:10:38
◼
►
with it and we had lots of people right
[TS]
00:10:39
◼
►
in from the pro audio world and from
[TS]
00:10:42
◼
►
some people in from like the scientific
[TS]
00:10:44
◼
►
equipment world which is pretty cool
[TS]
00:10:45
◼
►
have pretty cool listeners also
[TS]
00:10:47
◼
►
confirming what I said last episode that
[TS]
00:10:49
◼
►
that pro audio gear actually people are
[TS]
00:10:52
◼
►
going to say also pro filmed here does
[TS]
00:10:54
◼
►
similar things rather than trying to
[TS]
00:10:56
◼
►
like sync up a bunch of different audio
[TS]
00:10:58
◼
►
tracks afterwards and software from
[TS]
00:11:00
◼
►
different audio recording sources that
[TS]
00:11:02
◼
►
might be on a film set or a recording
[TS]
00:11:04
◼
►
studio they use the concept of a master
[TS]
00:11:07
◼
►
clock and they have like one device
[TS]
00:11:09
◼
►
whether it's a clock generator or just a
[TS]
00:11:11
◼
►
device that content has an internal
[TS]
00:11:12
◼
►
clock and progear has usually clock in
[TS]
00:11:15
◼
►
and clock out ports on the back of it
[TS]
00:11:17
◼
►
and so you'd like to actually physically
[TS]
00:11:19
◼
►
wire all to each other and they like
[TS]
00:11:22
◼
►
coordinate the clock based on one master
[TS]
00:11:23
◼
►
source rather than each device keeping
[TS]
00:11:25
◼
►
its own clock and therefore reducing
[TS]
00:11:26
◼
►
this drift was a lot of people wrote in
[TS]
00:11:28
◼
►
saying that was true and then the best
[TS]
00:11:30
◼
►
feedback we got I I very casually
[TS]
00:11:32
◼
►
mentioned last episode that i had just
[TS]
00:11:34
◼
►
anecdotally found that laptops are
[TS]
00:11:37
◼
►
generally generally have more drift then
[TS]
00:11:40
◼
►
like a mac pro or a desktop or like an
[TS]
00:11:42
◼
►
imac and it turns out there's a basis
[TS]
00:11:44
◼
►
for this the quartz crystals that
[TS]
00:11:46
◼
►
vibrate at particular frequencies that
[TS]
00:11:49
◼
►
create these clocks these devices that
[TS]
00:11:51
◼
►
have to be so accurate they are very
[TS]
00:11:53
◼
►
dependent on stable temperature and if
[TS]
00:11:56
◼
►
you if they don't have a stable
[TS]
00:11:57
◼
►
temperature that are operating or even
[TS]
00:11:59
◼
►
if it's just two different operating two
[TS]
00:12:00
◼
►
different temperatures that can cause
[TS]
00:12:03
◼
►
these these very very slight differences
[TS]
00:12:05
◼
►
and laptops usually their internal
[TS]
00:12:08
◼
►
components usually operate hotter than
[TS]
00:12:11
◼
►
desktops and also fluctuate more and you
[TS]
00:12:14
◼
►
know desktops have much bigger heatsink
[TS]
00:12:16
◼
►
mechanisms they have usually larger fans
[TS]
00:12:18
◼
►
are spinning faster and pushing more air
[TS]
00:12:20
◼
►
of them so desktop to be cooled better
[TS]
00:12:22
◼
►
and so I think that alone might explain
[TS]
00:12:25
◼
►
that little thing that yes this is this
[TS]
00:12:28
◼
►
is a this is worse on laptops or when
[TS]
00:12:31
◼
►
you have like one desktop on one end and
[TS]
00:12:34
◼
►
the other person other end is using a
[TS]
00:12:35
◼
►
laptop that might have more drift
[TS]
00:12:37
◼
►
between them then if both people reason
[TS]
00:12:38
◼
►
desktops or able people using laptops
[TS]
00:12:40
◼
►
and this is related to what I the the
[TS]
00:12:43
◼
►
reason i was i put the original feedback
[TS]
00:12:45
◼
►
and follow-up from like this seems weird
[TS]
00:12:48
◼
►
to me tell me we can make quartz
[TS]
00:12:49
◼
►
crystals that I can because I remember
[TS]
00:12:51
◼
►
him you know of
[TS]
00:12:53
◼
►
world of watches which i'm not that
[TS]
00:12:54
◼
►
involved in but they do you know the
[TS]
00:12:55
◼
►
fancy mechanical Rogers obviously are
[TS]
00:12:57
◼
►
terrible keeping time because i have a
[TS]
00:12:58
◼
►
bunch of gears and stuff but like you
[TS]
00:13:00
◼
►
know and Tencent quartz watch keeps
[TS]
00:13:02
◼
►
amazing time for you know for an entire
[TS]
00:13:04
◼
►
year maybe we'll lose a second it's like
[TS]
00:13:06
◼
►
so how do you make a stupid plastic
[TS]
00:13:08
◼
►
quartz watch that keeps amazing time is
[TS]
00:13:10
◼
►
very accurate over the course of an
[TS]
00:13:11
◼
►
entire year but we can make a quartz
[TS]
00:13:12
◼
►
crystal for our computer that is equally
[TS]
00:13:15
◼
►
accurate and there are a bunch of
[TS]
00:13:16
◼
►
factors that have to go into that having
[TS]
00:13:18
◼
►
to do with the specifics of the quality
[TS]
00:13:20
◼
►
of the crystals or even for tents and
[TS]
00:13:22
◼
►
watch or whatever but one of our readers
[TS]
00:13:24
◼
►
a reader's whatever is road and tell us
[TS]
00:13:27
◼
►
that the advantage of watch has is that
[TS]
00:13:30
◼
►
is essentially kept at an even
[TS]
00:13:31
◼
►
temperature by being next to your skin
[TS]
00:13:33
◼
►
so you are essentially temperature
[TS]
00:13:35
◼
►
regulating the watch the entire time
[TS]
00:13:37
◼
►
you're wearing it and that's the best
[TS]
00:13:38
◼
►
thing for a quartz crystal actually in
[TS]
00:13:40
◼
►
scenarios where they really want them to
[TS]
00:13:42
◼
►
be stable they put them in a little
[TS]
00:13:43
◼
►
every what they called it but they put
[TS]
00:13:45
◼
►
him in a little device that keeps it a
[TS]
00:13:46
◼
►
stable temperature so having a watch and
[TS]
00:13:49
◼
►
wearing it all the time keeps it
[TS]
00:13:51
◼
►
accurate much more elaborate than you
[TS]
00:13:52
◼
►
know a laptop that you're the
[TS]
00:13:54
◼
►
temperatures are going up and down and
[TS]
00:13:55
◼
►
you're putting it to sleep and you're
[TS]
00:13:56
◼
►
playing a game and it's just it's all
[TS]
00:13:57
◼
►
over the map so this is all very
[TS]
00:14:00
◼
►
explicable and now we should feel every
[TS]
00:14:03
◼
►
time you learn anything about the actual
[TS]
00:14:04
◼
►
analog physical world of components
[TS]
00:14:07
◼
►
inside your computer makes you feel
[TS]
00:14:08
◼
►
scared and so now you can know that uh
[TS]
00:14:09
◼
►
thing the regulating the clocks or
[TS]
00:14:11
◼
►
pieces of crap to and change all the
[TS]
00:14:13
◼
►
time you do it
[TS]
00:14:15
◼
►
yeah like whenever you learn about the
[TS]
00:14:16
◼
►
analog component world lucky you start
[TS]
00:14:18
◼
►
like we we live in like this digital
[TS]
00:14:20
◼
►
world where we think everything is just
[TS]
00:14:21
◼
►
like you know one is just on 20 is just
[TS]
00:14:24
◼
►
off and of course when you get into the
[TS]
00:14:26
◼
►
analog level of like the physical
[TS]
00:14:28
◼
►
implementation of these chips and these
[TS]
00:14:30
◼
►
components it isn't that simple and
[TS]
00:14:32
◼
►
everything is kind of like tolerances
[TS]
00:14:34
◼
►
and variances an approximation and
[TS]
00:14:37
◼
►
tricks and like it's kind of amazing all
[TS]
00:14:40
◼
►
the stuff we have works at all as
[TS]
00:14:41
◼
►
consistently as it does
[TS]
00:14:42
◼
►
yep i'm even just a clock like you learn
[TS]
00:14:44
◼
►
from like CPU design and even is
[TS]
00:14:46
◼
►
propagating the clock signal around the
[TS]
00:14:47
◼
►
died of a large cpu is kind of it's kind
[TS]
00:14:49
◼
►
of sketchy at best of all sorts of
[TS]
00:14:51
◼
►
phase-locked loops and other things to
[TS]
00:14:53
◼
►
make sure that that actually propagates
[TS]
00:14:55
◼
►
everywhere and it's the same everywhere
[TS]
00:14:56
◼
►
and you have delays and yeah so anyway I
[TS]
00:14:59
◼
►
think we are now all completely
[TS]
00:15:01
◼
►
satisfied
[TS]
00:15:02
◼
►
that we understand why Marcus tool is
[TS]
00:15:04
◼
►
necessary in life
[TS]
00:15:05
◼
►
yep and speaking of in your quest to
[TS]
00:15:09
◼
►
avoid doing actual work you actually
[TS]
00:15:11
◼
►
filed radar
[TS]
00:15:13
◼
►
yes I did I'm very proud of you yeah do
[TS]
00:15:16
◼
►
you want to tell us about this okay so
[TS]
00:15:18
◼
►
last episode in the after-show I got my
[TS]
00:15:22
◼
►
time in the Sun or whatever the metaphor
[TS]
00:15:26
◼
►
is and but whatever floats your bubble
[TS]
00:15:29
◼
►
and so I got I got to finally explain
[TS]
00:15:33
◼
►
the details of the mp3 file format and
[TS]
00:15:36
◼
►
the the efforts i was trying to do with
[TS]
00:15:38
◼
►
variable bit rate or vbr encoding and
[TS]
00:15:41
◼
►
why podcasts couldn't practically use
[TS]
00:15:44
◼
►
vbr encoding which basically boils down
[TS]
00:15:46
◼
►
to the method to seek a vbr file that
[TS]
00:15:49
◼
►
you don't have also like if you if you
[TS]
00:15:52
◼
►
are playing a stream and and the user
[TS]
00:15:54
◼
►
jumps ahead to a timestamp its way for
[TS]
00:15:56
◼
►
the stream you haven't downloaded like
[TS]
00:15:58
◼
►
the part of the file between those two
[TS]
00:16:00
◼
►
you can't really know exactly what bite
[TS]
00:16:02
◼
►
position to jump to to get to know
[TS]
00:16:05
◼
►
timestamp one hour 30 without using
[TS]
00:16:08
◼
►
these look-up tables at the beginning of
[TS]
00:16:09
◼
►
the VBR file that just don't have very
[TS]
00:16:11
◼
►
much precision in mode in the current
[TS]
00:16:13
◼
►
standards are in the old standard
[TS]
00:16:15
◼
►
they're very precise and so over the
[TS]
00:16:17
◼
►
course of it to our podcast you only
[TS]
00:16:19
◼
►
have in in the most common jump table
[TS]
00:16:21
◼
►
for i only have a hundred entries so you
[TS]
00:16:23
◼
►
have you know minute precision at best
[TS]
00:16:26
◼
►
you know it might even be less than a
[TS]
00:16:28
◼
►
precision I've learned a lot since then
[TS]
00:16:30
◼
►
I did a lot of experimentation I talked
[TS]
00:16:32
◼
►
to a bunch of people and I learned a lot
[TS]
00:16:35
◼
►
about this so I was recommending the use
[TS]
00:16:37
◼
►
of this there's a 93 tag its abbreviated
[TS]
00:16:42
◼
►
MLT 4mp location lookup table and this
[TS]
00:16:46
◼
►
is basically a 93 tag version of the VBR
[TS]
00:16:50
◼
►
offset jumped able to tell you you know
[TS]
00:16:52
◼
►
which bites map to which time stamp so
[TS]
00:16:54
◼
►
you can jump between the file easily
[TS]
00:16:55
◼
►
without having to have down the whole
[TS]
00:16:57
◼
►
thing just you know skander manually the
[TS]
00:16:59
◼
►
benefit of the id3 tag is that it can be
[TS]
00:17:01
◼
►
any size like the the VBR jump table
[TS]
00:17:04
◼
►
thing is restricted to the size of like
[TS]
00:17:06
◼
►
the one mp3 frame that they shoved it
[TS]
00:17:09
◼
►
into for compatibility reasons so it has
[TS]
00:17:11
◼
►
to be like basically below kilobyte or
[TS]
00:17:13
◼
►
so the id3 tag
[TS]
00:17:15
◼
►
can be anything you want to be so the
[TS]
00:17:17
◼
►
id3 tag version this would be great
[TS]
00:17:19
◼
►
because you can you can basically have
[TS]
00:17:21
◼
►
arbitrary precision as much space as
[TS]
00:17:22
◼
►
you're willing to devote to this and
[TS]
00:17:24
◼
►
like for me like i was able to encode
[TS]
00:17:26
◼
►
one second precision of the time stamps
[TS]
00:17:28
◼
►
with something like 16 kilobytes of a
[TS]
00:17:31
◼
►
total jump table so for like a 45-minute
[TS]
00:17:34
◼
►
by podcast 16k for some table is fine
[TS]
00:17:37
◼
►
and by having vbr you're saving like 20
[TS]
00:17:40
◼
►
megs on the file size in a case of it's
[TS]
00:17:43
◼
►
totally worth the savings to embezzle
[TS]
00:17:45
◼
►
table so I also heard from Devon govorit
[TS]
00:17:48
◼
►
after recording last episode i
[TS]
00:17:50
◼
►
discovered a github open source project
[TS]
00:17:53
◼
►
called audio cogs and and there's a
[TS]
00:17:56
◼
►
group people who make JavaScript
[TS]
00:17:58
◼
►
implementations of decoders for mp3 AAC
[TS]
00:18:02
◼
►
a couple of the audio formats and a
[TS]
00:18:04
◼
►
whole audio player all written in
[TS]
00:18:06
◼
►
JavaScript that can act like decode and
[TS]
00:18:08
◼
►
play these audio formats entirely in
[TS]
00:18:11
◼
►
JavaScript and that support MLT tag
[TS]
00:18:14
◼
►
these property BR seek methods and
[TS]
00:18:17
◼
►
everything it's it's and if they didn't
[TS]
00:18:18
◼
►
it's an easy way for me to add support
[TS]
00:18:20
◼
►
to this like that i could then have my
[TS]
00:18:23
◼
►
sites web player switch to this and then
[TS]
00:18:25
◼
►
i would i would eliminate his problem
[TS]
00:18:27
◼
►
anyway so I heard from one of the
[TS]
00:18:29
◼
►
authors of this devin govett we went
[TS]
00:18:31
◼
►
back and forth a few times
[TS]
00:18:33
◼
►
Devon informed me that the front offer
[TS]
00:18:35
◼
►
vbr I tag which is an alternative
[TS]
00:18:38
◼
►
version of the that stupid 100 entry
[TS]
00:18:41
◼
►
jump table is basically more precise
[TS]
00:18:44
◼
►
version that it still has to fit within
[TS]
00:18:45
◼
►
1 mp3 frame but instead of being a
[TS]
00:18:48
◼
►
hundred bites it can be like 1.3
[TS]
00:18:51
◼
►
kilobytes so that's like that's better
[TS]
00:18:54
◼
►
you know that's you have more space more
[TS]
00:18:56
◼
►
precision medicine experimentation with
[TS]
00:18:58
◼
►
that couple problems came up though
[TS]
00:19:00
◼
►
first discovered in the experimentation
[TS]
00:19:02
◼
►
going back and forth Devon that not only
[TS]
00:19:04
◼
►
does apples decoder not support the MLT
[TS]
00:19:10
◼
►
or the this VRI tag that has the more
[TS]
00:19:12
◼
►
precise version even that that stupid
[TS]
00:19:15
◼
►
little hundred bite version in the in
[TS]
00:19:17
◼
►
the King tag that we talked about last
[TS]
00:19:18
◼
►
episode
[TS]
00:19:19
◼
►
apple doesn't use it there decoder
[TS]
00:19:22
◼
►
completely ignores it
[TS]
00:19:23
◼
►
it does read these tags to get the
[TS]
00:19:26
◼
►
duration of the files so it's it's
[TS]
00:19:29
◼
►
parsing them because the duration is
[TS]
00:19:30
◼
►
also one of the fields in these tags so
[TS]
00:19:33
◼
►
it reads them for the duration and if
[TS]
00:19:34
◼
►
you add them in a hex editor and you put
[TS]
00:19:36
◼
►
in duration you want their will show up
[TS]
00:19:37
◼
►
like a quick look at everything as a
[TS]
00:19:38
◼
►
duration so we know it's reading them
[TS]
00:19:39
◼
►
but it completely ignores any of the
[TS]
00:19:42
◼
►
entries that are in these seek tables
[TS]
00:19:44
◼
►
that tell it which bite maps two weeks
[TS]
00:19:46
◼
►
time stamp in any of these forms that
[TS]
00:19:48
◼
►
ignores all of them
[TS]
00:19:49
◼
►
this is bad so I basically wrote up a
[TS]
00:19:52
◼
►
bug report and I i emailed some people
[TS]
00:19:54
◼
►
inside Apple to say like you know like
[TS]
00:19:55
◼
►
hey here's here's the problem having and
[TS]
00:19:57
◼
►
you know if if you guys would support
[TS]
00:20:00
◼
►
really any of these formats it except
[TS]
00:20:03
◼
►
for maybe that maybe the stupid hundred
[TS]
00:20:04
◼
►
white one but if if you support the
[TS]
00:20:06
◼
►
front for bri frame or the awesome MLT
[TS]
00:20:10
◼
►
id3 tag either of those would provide
[TS]
00:20:13
◼
►
useful precision for to our podcast to
[TS]
00:20:16
◼
►
be able to seek reliably within within 1
[TS]
00:20:18
◼
►
to 10 seconds of the desired point as
[TS]
00:20:20
◼
►
opposed to the stupid hundred white one
[TS]
00:20:22
◼
►
which is like a minute off and their
[TS]
00:20:24
◼
►
their estimation which is which could be
[TS]
00:20:26
◼
►
any amount off really and is frequently
[TS]
00:20:27
◼
►
like 32 34 36 seconds off anyways female
[TS]
00:20:30
◼
►
this around and I made a blog post
[TS]
00:20:32
◼
►
basically make as much noise as possible
[TS]
00:20:34
◼
►
about this issue because i've i've
[TS]
00:20:37
◼
►
realized I'm sorry for the massive
[TS]
00:20:38
◼
►
diversion here I i like talking about
[TS]
00:20:40
◼
►
like Randy apple stuff on a podcast
[TS]
00:20:43
◼
►
where doesn't get me in trouble and
[TS]
00:20:44
◼
►
where you guys can take me a little bit
[TS]
00:20:46
◼
►
and rebut me it's better for me to
[TS]
00:20:48
◼
►
reserve my blog for issues of maybe
[TS]
00:20:53
◼
►
greater importance or more boring topics
[TS]
00:20:56
◼
►
or whatever else
[TS]
00:20:58
◼
►
my blog is a great way to spread a
[TS]
00:21:00
◼
►
message to people who don't always
[TS]
00:21:03
◼
►
follow me and that is often the problem
[TS]
00:21:06
◼
►
like when i get myself into hot water
[TS]
00:21:08
◼
►
it's often because a whole bunch people
[TS]
00:21:10
◼
►
who don't follow me and don't really get
[TS]
00:21:12
◼
►
my context are reading something that I
[TS]
00:21:15
◼
►
didn't write very well and where I
[TS]
00:21:17
◼
►
assume people would get my contacts and
[TS]
00:21:19
◼
►
understand me and they'd be the ones
[TS]
00:21:20
◼
►
reading it and that gets me into trouble
[TS]
00:21:23
◼
►
but something like this like we're
[TS]
00:21:25
◼
►
requesting you know that Apple implement
[TS]
00:21:27
◼
►
an esoteric standard of the mp3 file
[TS]
00:21:30
◼
►
format that's 20 years old that is
[TS]
00:21:32
◼
►
really boring and doesn't spread into
[TS]
00:21:34
◼
►
business insider or CNBC and there's not
[TS]
00:21:37
◼
►
much embedded really controversial
[TS]
00:21:38
◼
►
although hacker news found some things
[TS]
00:21:40
◼
►
but most people would not find this
[TS]
00:21:42
◼
►
controversial
[TS]
00:21:42
◼
►
so this is i think is a very good use of
[TS]
00:21:45
◼
►
my blog and kind of its helping inform
[TS]
00:21:47
◼
►
me like how i should use my various
[TS]
00:21:50
◼
►
outlets looking for anyway I found a
[TS]
00:21:52
◼
►
giant bug report with example files an
[TS]
00:21:54
◼
►
example of why why their way of just
[TS]
00:21:57
◼
►
ignoring you seek tables for long BRB
[TS]
00:21:59
◼
►
threes was bad what you know what's bad
[TS]
00:22:02
◼
►
how you can fix it that's it that's
[TS]
00:22:04
◼
►
there's nothing has happened yet on this
[TS]
00:22:05
◼
►
front however i have gotten rumblings
[TS]
00:22:08
◼
►
here and there that this that this bug
[TS]
00:22:11
◼
►
report has traveled inside of Apple but
[TS]
00:22:13
◼
►
that's all I know and I don't know
[TS]
00:22:14
◼
►
anything else that's going on with it
[TS]
00:22:16
◼
►
it is probably too late even if Apple
[TS]
00:22:18
◼
►
decided I was right and they want to do
[TS]
00:22:20
◼
►
this it is almost certainly too late to
[TS]
00:22:22
◼
►
get into iOS 10 or mac OS Sierra but I
[TS]
00:22:27
◼
►
would just love for this to happen
[TS]
00:22:28
◼
►
sometime soon and the main reason why I
[TS]
00:22:31
◼
►
can't do the audio cogs and the average
[TS]
00:22:36
◼
►
is like that the JavaScript version that
[TS]
00:22:38
◼
►
is only about a minute ago the html5
[TS]
00:22:40
◼
►
audio element can fetch a file from
[TS]
00:22:42
◼
►
basically anywhere but for javascript
[TS]
00:22:45
◼
►
file you were into all these cores
[TS]
00:22:46
◼
►
issues and you also you can't cross from
[TS]
00:22:50
◼
►
https to http and all this is like all
[TS]
00:22:53
◼
►
these restrictions of like you know for
[TS]
00:22:55
◼
►
various web security purposes all these
[TS]
00:22:57
◼
►
restrictions on what
[TS]
00:22:59
◼
►
javascript is allowed to fetch from and
[TS]
00:23:02
◼
►
for me to be able to play podcast from
[TS]
00:23:04
◼
►
arbitrary podcast hosts i basically can
[TS]
00:23:07
◼
►
use this thing I could run a proxy but
[TS]
00:23:09
◼
►
if i do that then the podcasters don't
[TS]
00:23:12
◼
►
get unique hit information really so
[TS]
00:23:15
◼
►
that's no good
[TS]
00:23:16
◼
►
so it's there's a whole bunch of crappy
[TS]
00:23:18
◼
►
reasons why I'd in practice I can't use
[TS]
00:23:21
◼
►
the JavaScript approach just decoded the
[TS]
00:23:23
◼
►
whole file in java script and basically
[TS]
00:23:25
◼
►
wearing been working on decoders so I
[TS]
00:23:27
◼
►
i'm relying on Apple I have to if if if
[TS]
00:23:30
◼
►
podcast vbr ever going to happen
[TS]
00:23:32
◼
►
Apple has built in 30 coders that's it
[TS]
00:23:34
◼
►
well but hold on so a couple of
[TS]
00:23:37
◼
►
questions here first of all let's assume
[TS]
00:23:39
◼
►
you did desired proxy it because this
[TS]
00:23:42
◼
►
was that important you for the web
[TS]
00:23:45
◼
►
why couldn't you proxy each request
[TS]
00:23:47
◼
►
individually I mean it's a it's a
[TS]
00:23:49
◼
►
credible bandwidth but is there any
[TS]
00:23:51
◼
►
other reason why you couldn't do that so
[TS]
00:23:53
◼
►
at least they're all of these hits our
[TS]
00:23:54
◼
►
unique just
[TS]
00:23:55
◼
►
coming from you and not the actual
[TS]
00:23:56
◼
►
person that's asking for him
[TS]
00:23:58
◼
►
the main problem with with that is that
[TS]
00:24:01
◼
►
even if you are connected the proxy such
[TS]
00:24:03
◼
►
that every inbound request equal one
[TS]
00:24:06
◼
►
back and outbound request which would be
[TS]
00:24:08
◼
►
silly in general but in this case may
[TS]
00:24:10
◼
►
make sense right so even if you did that
[TS]
00:24:12
◼
►
the requested still appear to be all
[TS]
00:24:15
◼
►
coming from one IP address
[TS]
00:24:17
◼
►
sure so and most know it's kind of a
[TS]
00:24:19
◼
►
hotly debated topic and the podcast of
[TS]
00:24:21
◼
►
like what counts as a download and you
[TS]
00:24:24
◼
►
know because there's it's as as with
[TS]
00:24:26
◼
►
most things it's complicated ahead so
[TS]
00:24:28
◼
►
you can't just say oh well let me hit
[TS]
00:24:29
◼
►
you get noticed work that way because
[TS]
00:24:31
◼
►
that's it
[TS]
00:24:32
◼
►
yeah it doesn't matter listen
[TS]
00:24:34
◼
►
necessarily so anyway most podcast host
[TS]
00:24:37
◼
►
have their own idea of what what damage
[TS]
00:24:40
◼
►
account as and most of them involve the
[TS]
00:24:42
◼
►
IP address of the source in some way so
[TS]
00:24:45
◼
►
it might be like you know a unique
[TS]
00:24:47
◼
►
downloads like one IP like the IP has to
[TS]
00:24:50
◼
►
be unique within a certain time interval
[TS]
00:24:52
◼
►
for it to count as unique download or
[TS]
00:24:54
◼
►
something like that like their there's
[TS]
00:24:55
◼
►
all these different tricks that people
[TS]
00:24:56
◼
►
do but basically if all the request came
[TS]
00:24:59
◼
►
from my single IP that was running the
[TS]
00:25:01
◼
►
proxy it would not get people's statute
[TS]
00:25:04
◼
►
under count that being said i actually
[TS]
00:25:08
◼
►
already wrote and run one such proxy i
[TS]
00:25:11
◼
►
already have this and I designed exactly
[TS]
00:25:14
◼
►
this way and that has exactly this
[TS]
00:25:15
◼
►
problem and the only reason that I that
[TS]
00:25:19
◼
►
it's not really a problem that hasn't
[TS]
00:25:20
◼
►
got me into any hot water with anybody
[TS]
00:25:22
◼
►
is because it's hardly ever used and I
[TS]
00:25:25
◼
►
designed it because overcast has a
[TS]
00:25:27
◼
►
twitter card on any share link i have
[TS]
00:25:29
◼
►
twitter cards and so that it so if you
[TS]
00:25:31
◼
►
view that with overcast link on twitter
[TS]
00:25:33
◼
►
website or in any other client support
[TS]
00:25:36
◼
►
the cards which is very few of them in
[TS]
00:25:37
◼
►
practice i show a whole little overcast
[TS]
00:25:39
◼
►
embedded player and it works it's great
[TS]
00:25:41
◼
►
so you know you can stream into
[TS]
00:25:42
◼
►
timestamps it works perfectly like the
[TS]
00:25:44
◼
►
website but tiny twigs cars require that
[TS]
00:25:47
◼
►
all assets loaded through them must be
[TS]
00:25:49
◼
►
served over https so i actually have
[TS]
00:25:53
◼
►
kind of like a little little function
[TS]
00:25:55
◼
►
like a mapping that many big podcast
[TS]
00:25:57
◼
►
host including libsyn our hosts many of
[TS]
00:26:00
◼
►
them have like just like a simple like
[TS]
00:26:03
◼
►
way to you can transform their they're
[TS]
00:26:04
◼
►
not they're insecure urls in to https
[TS]
00:26:08
◼
►
urls like
[TS]
00:26:09
◼
►
simple string replacement on certain
[TS]
00:26:10
◼
►
things and everything so like some hosts
[TS]
00:26:13
◼
►
i can just redirect with I could just
[TS]
00:26:14
◼
►
redirect that's fine but not all hosts
[TS]
00:26:17
◼
►
and so that so I actually run this proxy
[TS]
00:26:20
◼
►
that does this that follows redirects
[TS]
00:26:22
◼
►
and when it you know when it went to
[TS]
00:26:23
◼
►
host it knows about it can just keep it
[TS]
00:26:25
◼
►
continued along when it's not it does
[TS]
00:26:27
◼
►
that proxy of one-to-one connection
[TS]
00:26:29
◼
►
mapping exactly the way you think and
[TS]
00:26:31
◼
►
the only reason it isn't a problem for
[TS]
00:26:32
◼
►
either my bandwidth costs or people in
[TS]
00:26:34
◼
►
anatomy is that the cards get pretty low
[TS]
00:26:37
◼
►
usage relatively speaking i mean that
[TS]
00:26:39
◼

fetching from the the IP of the person

[TS]
00:28:26
◼

ah so you had said before
[TS]
00:28:31
◼
►
well if Apple just implements this then
[TS]
00:28:34
◼
►
then you can start using it on the web
[TS]
00:28:37
◼
►
because the html5 audio tag along
[TS]
00:28:39
◼
►
Google's supported at cetera but what
[TS]
00:28:42
◼
►
about your beloved windows users or you
[TS]
00:28:45
◼
►
know next year is going to be the year
[TS]
00:28:47
◼
►
of linux on the desktop so what about
[TS]
00:28:49
◼
►
first of all we don't have that many of
[TS]
00:28:51
◼
►
them honestly like not a lot of people
[TS]
00:28:53
◼
►
video use windows and and use my app or
[TS]
00:28:58
◼
►
follow my sharing generated by my app or
[TS]
00:29:00
◼
►
anything else and i would love to change
[TS]
00:29:01
◼
►
that because there are other users out
[TS]
00:29:03
◼
►
there i would love for more windows
[TS]
00:29:05
◼
►
people to see the share links from
[TS]
00:29:06
◼
►
overcast because that would mean that
[TS]
00:29:08
◼
►
the share links are being spread far and
[TS]
00:29:09
◼
►
wide and that's the whole point of the
[TS]
00:29:10
◼
►
share links but reality is different
[TS]
00:29:13
◼
►
reality is that they they really don't
[TS]
00:29:15
◼
►
get much windows you look at all so
[TS]
00:29:17
◼
►
that's that's problem number one or
[TS]
00:29:18
◼
►
rather dodge number one where i can
[TS]
00:29:20
◼
►
dodge this issue but same reason why I
[TS]
00:29:24
◼
►
never test my websites in IE because I'm
[TS]
00:29:26
◼
►
my audience my customer bases tend to
[TS]
00:29:28
◼
►
have such incredibly low IE or whatever
[TS]
00:29:31
◼
►
is called now what does it call now reg
[TS]
00:29:33
◼
►
reg reg anyway the the main reason why i
[TS]
00:29:42
◼
►
don't really need to care that much
[TS]
00:29:44
◼
►
about this problem for other browsers
[TS]
00:29:46
◼
►
other than like things that use apples
[TS]
00:29:47
◼
►
built-in decoders and my own app is
[TS]
00:29:51
◼
►
because it's only a problem for seeking
[TS]
00:29:54
◼
►
to time stamps that haven't been
[TS]
00:29:56
◼
►
downloaded that's it in it in all other
[TS]
00:29:59
◼
►
ways vbr mp3 to work great already
[TS]
00:30:01
◼
►
mentioned the same problem even if i
[TS]
00:30:03
◼
►
added support for it that it doesn't
[TS]
00:30:04
◼
►
matter because you have to wait for
[TS]
00:30:06
◼
►
everyone to upgrade to an operating
[TS]
00:30:08
◼
►
system that includes that support that
[TS]
00:30:09
◼
►
the apple just added in practice yes but
[TS]
00:30:12
◼
►
the amount of time i have to wait isn't
[TS]
00:30:14
◼
►
that much especially for podcast
[TS]
00:30:17
◼
►
listeners to a tech show like that
[TS]
00:30:18
◼
►
that's a pretty it's a pretty upgrad
[TS]
00:30:21
◼
►
group like the it's I we don't have to
[TS]
00:30:24
◼
►
wait that long
[TS]
00:30:25
◼
►
it even on the mac like I is probably
[TS]
00:30:27
◼
►
like their upgrade curves pretty good
[TS]
00:30:29
◼
►
but the mac upgrade girls has not been
[TS]
00:30:30
◼
►
great like you're a year and be like
[TS]
00:30:32
◼
►
fifty percent adoption which is better
[TS]
00:30:33
◼
►
than windows but still
[TS]
00:30:35
◼
►
for people who would see it again like I
[TS]
00:30:38
◼
►
don't have to worry about using my app I
[TS]
00:30:40
◼
►
control my app I can update my app I
[TS]
00:30:42
◼
►
have to worry about people who are going
[TS]
00:30:43
◼
►
to see the share links you know right
[TS]
00:30:45
◼
►
now the showings don't have big
[TS]
00:30:46
◼
►
audiences that they they get you some
[TS]
00:30:48
◼
►
and some people see them and that's
[TS]
00:30:50
◼
►
great i want to make them bigger because
[TS]
00:30:52
◼
►
I think podcast sharing could use help
[TS]
00:30:53
◼
►
and you know I mean everybody in
[TS]
00:30:55
◼
►
podcasting things pocket sharing can use
[TS]
00:30:56
◼
►
help but like I Here I am I actually
[TS]
00:30:58
◼
►
like I actually have something that does
[TS]
00:31:00
◼
►
help and I want I want to get bigger and
[TS]
00:31:02
◼
►
better but the reality is even if you
[TS]
00:31:05
◼
►
know if Apple had support suppose it
[TS]
00:31:07
◼
►
makes it into the next major versions of
[TS]
00:31:08
◼
►
OS x and iOS whatever you know not the
[TS]
00:31:10
◼
►
ones coming out in a few weeks whatever
[TS]
00:31:12
◼
►
but you know next year or in the spring
[TS]
00:31:14
◼
►
or whatever else it will probably be
[TS]
00:31:15
◼
►
about a year after that before i can
[TS]
00:31:19
◼
►
reliably use it because at that point
[TS]
00:31:21
◼
►
you know it's gonna be way more than
[TS]
00:31:23
◼
►
half because first of all like the
[TS]
00:31:25
◼
►
people who are seeing share links from
[TS]
00:31:28
◼
►
social media are going to be way more
[TS]
00:31:30
◼
►
likely be on mobile than on a desktop so
[TS]
00:31:32
◼
►
the slower adoption curve on Mac OS is
[TS]
00:31:35
◼
►
not going to be as big of a problem is
[TS]
00:31:36
◼
►
going to be offset by the large
[TS]
00:31:38
◼
►
proportion of those viewers who are
[TS]
00:31:40
◼
►
going to be on ir on iOS and and you
[TS]
00:31:43
◼
►
know android if if anybody can tolerate
[TS]
00:31:45
◼
►
me who's using android which is big a
[TS]
00:31:47
◼
►
big ask
[TS]
00:31:49
◼
►
so you know I think iOS is I was we
[TS]
00:31:52
◼
►
updated faster especially as Apple has
[TS]
00:31:54
◼
►
figured out how to make people upgrade
[TS]
00:31:55
◼
►
by adding emoji and messages tricks so
[TS]
00:31:58
◼
►
again like I think give it a year after
[TS]
00:32:01
◼
►
they add support and i think almost
[TS]
00:32:04
◼
►
anybody can responsibly do this and it
[TS]
00:32:06
◼
►
would be fine podcast listening if
[TS]
00:32:09
◼
►
anybody doesn't know Rob walks the CEO
[TS]
00:32:12
◼
►
of libsyn look listen as a massive
[TS]
00:32:14
◼
►
podcast host that they've been around
[TS]
00:32:16
◼
►
forever and they host a ton of podcast
[TS]
00:32:19
◼
►
including this one and if you listen to
[TS]
00:32:22
◼
►
they probably host a lot of other
[TS]
00:32:23
◼
►
podcast you listen to i'm pretty sure
[TS]
00:32:25
◼
►
all the really FM shows are hosted their
[TS]
00:32:27
◼
►
it so it's a very big podcast host and
[TS]
00:32:31
◼
►
they do a podcast forget what it's
[TS]
00:32:36
◼
►
I'll put in the show notes they do a
[TS]
00:32:38
◼
►
podcast where it's like tips for
[TS]
00:32:40
◼
►
podcasters and then something like once
[TS]
00:32:42
◼
►
a month the CEO of listen goes on there
[TS]
00:32:44
◼
►
and give stats of like podcast user
[TS]
00:32:48
◼
►
agents like what clients what platforms
[TS]
00:32:50
◼
►
are downloading podcasts and listen is a
[TS]
00:32:52
◼
►
pretty good source of this because they
[TS]
00:32:55
◼
►
host so many podcasts across so many
[TS]
00:32:57
◼
►
markets that isn't just like technically
[TS]
00:32:59
◼
►
any sense i can give you on like how
[TS]
00:33:01
◼
►
people use overcast is like how Apple
[TS]
00:33:04
◼
►
nerds who know who I am mostly use
[TS]
00:33:06
◼
►
overcast like the top podcast and
[TS]
00:33:08
◼
►
overcast are mostly text shows they're
[TS]
00:33:10
◼
►
not dead but if you look at the top
[TS]
00:33:11
◼
►
podcast in the world is mostly not text
[TS]
00:33:14
◼
►
shows so obviously overcast you so just
[TS]
00:33:16
◼
►
not representative of all podcasters out
[TS]
00:33:18
◼
►
there but listen stats are really close
[TS]
00:33:21
◼
►
I think I i would say listen stats are
[TS]
00:33:23
◼
►
probably the best representation we have
[TS]
00:33:24
◼
►
outside of apple and there are talking
[TS]
00:33:26
◼
►
of like you know how podcasters behave
[TS]
00:33:29
◼
►
in mass what the overall market looks
[TS]
00:33:31
◼
►
like and the stats they give I listen
[TS]
00:33:35
◼
►
and take notes every month and so he'll
[TS]
00:33:38
◼
►
make a split up here so the most recent
[TS]
00:33:40
◼
►
ones except for june seventy-seven
[TS]
00:33:42
◼
►
percent of listens on mobile devices and
[TS]
00:33:45
◼
►
every month that number increases so
[TS]
00:33:48
◼
►
already very mobile heavy iOS to Android
[TS]
00:33:51
◼
►
is a little little over three two one
[TS]
00:33:53
◼
►
and that that reaches going down and
[TS]
00:33:55
◼
►
read is becoming more popular now
[TS]
00:33:57
◼
►
because people are finally building in
[TS]
00:33:59
◼
►
like android vendors like Samsung
[TS]
00:34:01
◼
►
finally building in podcast clients that
[TS]
00:34:03
◼
►
they weren't for a long time and so
[TS]
00:34:05
◼
►
that's that's adding a lot to the
[TS]
00:34:06
◼
►
Android side but so basically but you
[TS]
00:34:09
◼
►
still have liked more than three times
[TS]
00:34:11
◼
►
as many people listening iOS and Android
[TS]
00:34:14
◼
►
and and only like twenty two percent of
[TS]
00:34:18
◼
►
listeners listening on computers so this
[TS]
00:34:21
◼
►
is a very mobile heavy market and a very
[TS]
00:34:23
◼
►
iOS heavy market so that's why I think
[TS]
00:34:26
◼
►
it's fairly responsible for a lot of
[TS]
00:34:29
◼
►
podcasters especially if you are in like
[TS]
00:34:31
◼
►
the apple tech world like we are we are
[TS]
00:34:33
◼
►
audience is going to be even more skewed
[TS]
00:34:35
◼
►
towards recent apple platforms i think
[TS]
00:34:38
◼
►
one year after that support to this it's
[TS]
00:34:40
◼
►
totally safe to do and I might even do
[TS]
00:34:42
◼
►
it sooner that you feel optimistic about
[TS]
00:34:45
◼
►
them actually adding support or do you
[TS]
00:34:46
◼
►
feel like it's going to be two years
[TS]
00:34:47
◼
►
before this bug is closed as behaves
[TS]
00:34:49
◼
►
correctly
[TS]
00:34:50
◼
►
when I filed this bug in my bug reporter
[TS]
00:34:54
◼
►
it was next to two other bugs that have
[TS]
00:34:57
◼
►
been open forever my i'm lucky if i get
[TS]
00:35:01
◼
►
a response that I don't find that many
[TS]
00:35:03
◼
►
bugs with apple because the the the
[TS]
00:35:06
◼
►
effort on my side to feedback and
[TS]
00:35:10
◼
►
potential benefit i will get from that
[TS]
00:35:11
◼
►
ratio is so terrible like that you know
[TS]
00:35:14
◼
►
this took the better part of two days to
[TS]
00:35:16
◼
►
do things to do research properly to
[TS]
00:35:18
◼
►
like figure out that Apple didn't even
[TS]
00:35:19
◼
►
support these tags at all you know I
[TS]
00:35:21
◼
►
thought they were supporting least the
[TS]
00:35:22
◼
►
crappy one they supported none of them
[TS]
00:35:23
◼
►
to anyone to to modify my these test
[TS]
00:35:27
◼
►
files to like you know right these tags
[TS]
00:35:28
◼
►
properly everything took a lot of work
[TS]
00:35:30
◼
►
to write a big turtle bug report it give
[TS]
00:35:32
◼
►
proper test coverage and everything it
[TS]
00:35:34
◼
►
takes a lot of time a lot of work and
[TS]
00:35:36
◼
►
usually I file bugs and they go nowhere
[TS]
00:35:39
◼
►
if i'm lucky they might be closed as a
[TS]
00:35:42
◼
►
duplicate and when they're closed a
[TS]
00:35:44
◼
►
duplicate I believe I then lose any
[TS]
00:35:46
◼
►
visibility on that I forget what the
[TS]
00:35:49
◼
►
Destiny change the reason anyway so the
[TS]
00:35:52
◼
►
feedback loop is terrible for filing
[TS]
00:35:54
◼
►
bugs for Apple I you know people who
[TS]
00:35:56
◼
►
people who do it are good people they
[TS]
00:35:58
◼
►
probably floss you know that they're
[TS]
00:36:00
◼
►
probably very good people
[TS]
00:36:01
◼
►
I i have a hard time doing it most of
[TS]
00:36:04
◼
►
the time because again like I i see what
[TS]
00:36:06
◼
►
happens with the few but i do file and
[TS]
00:36:08
◼
►
they just they sit around forever and
[TS]
00:36:10
◼
►
they don't even get close
[TS]
00:36:11
◼
►
it's not it and and the few that do that
[TS]
00:36:13
◼
►
closed are often closed in a way that i
[TS]
00:36:16
◼
►
consider invalid like you know that
[TS]
00:36:20
◼
►
those they'll be still do something like
[TS]
00:36:21
◼
►
wearing clothes unless you tell us you
[TS]
00:36:24
◼
►
know really soon that this is still
[TS]
00:36:25
◼
►
happening on the news built of iOS four
[TS]
00:36:27
◼
►
a bug that I filed like you know six
[TS]
00:36:29
◼
►
months ago that is easily testable like
[TS]
00:36:30
◼
►
that they they clearly have a wide
[TS]
00:36:34
◼
►
variety of quality of people who go
[TS]
00:36:36
◼
►
through the bug reports and many of them
[TS]
00:36:38
◼
►
clearly just want to close as many as
[TS]
00:36:40
◼
►
possible that actually do any work like
[TS]
00:36:41
◼
►
the incentives are wrong there are you
[TS]
00:36:43
◼
►
saying you don't floss
[TS]
00:36:45
◼
►
so anyway uh I using file bugs because
[TS]
00:36:50
◼
►
I've had a very I've had a poor history
[TS]
00:36:52
◼
►
of of any response from apple on bugs
[TS]
00:36:55
◼
►
but this time i find it because i
[TS]
00:36:56
◼
►
figured basically nothing else I can do
[TS]
00:36:58
◼
►
I can't work around this like I i
[TS]
00:37:00
◼
►
mentioned the JavaScript and I tried
[TS]
00:37:02
◼
►
doing the javascript thing but you know
[TS]
00:37:03
◼
►
cause of all the cores restrictions it
[TS]
00:37:05
◼
►
and it makes it pretty much impossible
[TS]
00:37:07
◼
►
to use for an arbitrary set of hosts
[TS]
00:37:11
◼
►
that you don't control most of which
[TS]
00:37:12
◼
►
don't send course permission headers
[TS]
00:37:14
◼
►
already so that's a non-starter
[TS]
00:37:18
◼
►
you know i could write my own decoder in
[TS]
00:37:20
◼
►
my app that can calculate these offsets
[TS]
00:37:22
◼
►
but that's only one app and so for
[TS]
00:37:25
◼
►
something to make something like even
[TS]
00:37:26
◼
►
even our podcast that you would think
[TS]
00:37:29
◼
►
you know what percentage of people who
[TS]
00:37:31
◼
►
download our podcast you can listen and
[TS]
00:37:33
◼
►
overcast and a lot of people would
[TS]
00:37:35
◼
►
probably guess it's a pretty high ratio
[TS]
00:37:36
◼
►
and it is compared to overcast global
[TS]
00:37:38
◼
►
ratio I haven't looked recently but i
[TS]
00:37:40
◼
►
think it's something like sixty percent
[TS]
00:37:41
◼
►
that's still forty percent of our
[TS]
00:37:43
◼
►
listeners who don't listen overcast who
[TS]
00:37:46
◼
►
wouldn't have who would need
[TS]
00:37:47
◼
►
compatibility in this way you know for
[TS]
00:37:49
◼
►
for seeking and streams i basically the
[TS]
00:37:52
◼
►
reason find this bug is that it's my
[TS]
00:37:53
◼
►
last hope to get BTR mp3's to be a thing
[TS]
00:37:55
◼
►
I think that'd be great if they were
[TS]
00:37:57
◼
►
thing I think it's ridiculous that they
[TS]
00:37:58
◼
►
aren't of thing yet but if there's any
[TS]
00:38:00
◼
►
hope of them being a thing it's
[TS]
00:38:02
◼
►
basically on Apple to do because if
[TS]
00:38:05
◼
►
apple doesn't do it nobody else can and
[TS]
00:38:06
◼
►
nobody else will
[TS]
00:38:08
◼
►
did you make a strong recommendation of
[TS]
00:38:09
◼
►
implement a specific one of these
[TS]
00:38:11
◼
►
because I if you just said oh here all
[TS]
00:38:12
◼
►
these things you don't support i can
[TS]
00:38:13
◼
►
imagine i'm supporting like that
[TS]
00:38:15
◼
►
terrible one that only it gives you a
[TS]
00:38:16
◼
►
hundred points and then being like done
[TS]
00:38:18
◼
►
closed fixed
[TS]
00:38:19
◼
►
yeah you know that my report actually
[TS]
00:38:21
◼
►
reads a lot like the blog post i wrote
[TS]
00:38:22
◼
►
the book report first and edit to be a
[TS]
00:38:24
◼
►
blog post but basically it's it's a you
[TS]
00:38:27
◼
►
know similar format and I I recommended
[TS]
00:38:30
◼
►
you know I i gave three options and I
[TS]
00:38:32
◼
►
said you know you don't post any of
[TS]
00:38:34
◼
►
these right now this old one is not is
[TS]
00:38:35
◼
►
not precise enough don't use this time I
[TS]
00:38:37
◼
►
and so I said basically the MLT tag will
[TS]
00:38:40
◼
►
be the ideal one to do because it can be
[TS]
00:38:42
◼
►
arbitrary length arbitrary-precision so
[TS]
00:38:45
◼
►
that's the ideal one if you only pick
[TS]
00:38:47
◼
►
one pick that one
[TS]
00:38:48
◼
►
the farm for bri tag that's like 1.3
[TS]
00:38:52
◼
►
kilobytes worth of stuff like that's a
[TS]
00:38:53
◼
►
good second choice like if you if you do
[TS]
00:38:55
◼
►
that i'll be happy but the best one to
[TS]
00:38:57
◼
►
do will be the MLT tag
[TS]
00:38:59
◼
►
I wonder if they don't support it not
[TS]
00:39:01
◼
►
out of laziness because like you said
[TS]
00:39:02
◼
►
they are actually parsing the durations
[TS]
00:39:04
◼
►
out of them but for kind of for the same
[TS]
00:39:05
◼
►
reason related to something else set
[TS]
00:39:07
◼
►
another why why webhost can't trust
[TS]
00:39:09
◼
►
x-forwarded-for maybe they're afraid is
[TS]
00:39:11
◼
►
going to people with garbage data and
[TS]
00:39:13
◼
►
then they're afraid all I can expose
[TS]
00:39:14
◼
►
you know exploits in there like a buffer
[TS]
00:39:17
◼
►
of lower something because they put
[TS]
00:39:18
◼
►
crazy offsets in there and then trigger
[TS]
00:39:20
◼
►
but who knows i don't know that type of
[TS]
00:39:22
◼
►
thing where it is or they just don't
[TS]
00:39:24
◼
►
trust the the encoders to put good data
[TS]
00:39:26
◼
►
in there they don't want to try to read
[TS]
00:39:27
◼
►
garbage data these are solvable problems
[TS]
00:39:30
◼
►
like you know make your your thing not
[TS]
00:39:31
◼
►
have silly buffer overflows and sanity
[TS]
00:39:35
◼
►
check the the offsets in the map and
[TS]
00:39:37
◼
►
make sure they seem reasonable before
[TS]
00:39:39
◼
►
blindly following may be disregarded it
[TS]
00:39:42
◼
►
looks like line noise but I do wonder if
[TS]
00:39:45
◼
►
someone did have to write the code pull
[TS]
00:39:46
◼
►
these durations out of there
[TS]
00:39:47
◼
►
why do they do that and like while I'm
[TS]
00:39:49
◼
►
in there why don't just actually parse
[TS]
00:39:50
◼
►
this whole format and just implemented
[TS]
00:39:53
◼
►
you know so I mean your concerns are
[TS]
00:39:55
◼
►
that are totally valid and I can I can I
[TS]
00:39:56
◼
►
can completely understand how like it
[TS]
00:39:59
◼
►
wouldn't surprise me at all if if there
[TS]
00:40:01
◼
►
was an engineering meeting at Apple some
[TS]
00:40:03
◼
►
ridiculous amount of time ago like
[TS]
00:40:04
◼
►
somebody was like yeah you know what we
[TS]
00:40:06
◼
►
we could parse these things out but the
[TS]
00:40:09
◼
►
data might be wrong and if we just do
[TS]
00:40:11
◼
►
this like you know percentage of time to
[TS]
00:40:13
◼
►
byte offset thing that we kind of like
[TS]
00:40:15
◼
►
an approximation like that'll be close
[TS]
00:40:18
◼
►
enough and it will be consistent and so
[TS]
00:40:21
◼
►
if there is you know there's a school of
[TS]
00:40:23
◼
►
thought that says like you should know
[TS]
00:40:24
◼
►
you you should override the the stupid
[TS]
00:40:26
◼
►
mp3 encoder because who knows what
[TS]
00:40:28
◼
►
garbage and you're gonna get there and
[TS]
00:40:29
◼
►
you could just do your thing but and and
[TS]
00:40:32
◼
►
you know just make it so that it works
[TS]
00:40:33
◼
►
it works its kind of clothes for short
[TS]
00:40:35
◼
►
songs and then it doesn't matter anymore
[TS]
00:40:38
◼
►
that's good enough for scrubber work
[TS]
00:40:40
◼
►
like that they want the scrubber like
[TS]
00:40:41
◼
►
when you're removing scar around anyway
[TS]
00:40:43
◼
►
it's probably like an inch on some
[TS]
00:40:44
◼
►
webpages you can't tell if it's like
[TS]
00:40:46
◼
►
what pixels on forever but for your
[TS]
00:40:47
◼
►
specific use case which is no no I'm not
[TS]
00:40:49
◼
►
had someone's not dragging the scrubber
[TS]
00:40:51
◼
►
here i'm putting it off set in the URL
[TS]
00:40:52
◼
►
down to the second i want that precision
[TS]
00:40:54
◼
►
out of it
[TS]
00:40:55
◼
►
hey YouTube does it you should do it too
[TS]
00:40:57
◼
►
exactly yeah like so you know that there
[TS]
00:41:00
◼
►
is an argument to be made there but you
[TS]
00:41:02
◼
►
know a they're already reading the
[TS]
00:41:04
◼
►
duration of these tax even if they have
[TS]
00:41:06
◼
►
the whole file they still read the
[TS]
00:41:08
◼
►
duration from that header and so if you
[TS]
00:41:09
◼
►
put garbage generation as it did during
[TS]
00:41:11
◼
►
testing it says alright yeah sure this
[TS]
00:41:12
◼
►
file isn't you know nine minutes long as
[TS]
00:41:14
◼
►
that of an hour like it's happy to use
[TS]
00:41:16
◼
►
that value so it's already trusting it
[TS]
00:41:18
◼
►
on some level also like mp3 encoder
[TS]
00:41:21
◼
►
don't change that much like they it's
[TS]
00:41:23
◼
►
there's very few that are actually in
[TS]
00:41:24
◼
►
active use today and they all right good
[TS]
00:41:27
◼
►
data like this isn't nice
[TS]
00:41:28
◼
►
b7 anymore like we we have solved the
[TS]
00:41:30
◼
►
mp3 encoder problem mp3 encoder is work
[TS]
00:41:33
◼
►
and they work well and there are next no
[TS]
00:41:35
◼
►
one else besides me is going on with a
[TS]
00:41:38
◼
►
hex editor messing with these values
[TS]
00:41:39
◼
►
like that here I can't like total
[TS]
00:41:41
◼
►
garbage on a regular basis so I i think
[TS]
00:41:45
◼
►
what's what's more likely to have
[TS]
00:41:47
◼
►
happened is that maybe these decoders
[TS]
00:41:49
◼
►
were written a very long time ago maybe
[TS]
00:41:51
◼
►
around that time frame when the world of
[TS]
00:41:53
◼
►
mp3 was still very much in flux and you
[TS]
00:41:55
◼
►
had crappy encoders in like the late
[TS]
00:41:58
◼
►
nineties and maybe they just haven't
[TS]
00:41:59
◼
►
revisited since then because there
[TS]
00:42:01
◼
►
wasn't a reason to that is the move that
[TS]
00:42:03
◼
►
is the way more likely explanation for
[TS]
00:42:04
◼
►
this is like this is very old code that
[TS]
00:42:07
◼
►
no one had any justification of touch
[TS]
00:42:08
◼
►
for a long time it works it well enough
[TS]
00:42:10
◼
►
so fine and that's why I think
[TS]
00:42:13
◼
►
ultimately it probably won't get done
[TS]
00:42:15
◼
►
because I would be surprised if anybody
[TS]
00:42:17
◼
►
was really motivated to devote you know
[TS]
00:42:20
◼
►
a limited people have limited time so
[TS]
00:42:23
◼
►
who's going to devote time to this out
[TS]
00:42:25
◼
►
of there like engineering time budget
[TS]
00:42:27
◼
►
inside Apple when they might have more
[TS]
00:42:30
◼
►
pressing things to worry about with like
[TS]
00:42:31
◼
►
supporting the new bluetooth headphones
[TS]
00:42:33
◼
►
the next iphone you know I think that if
[TS]
00:42:35
◼
►
anything else baby somebody working on
[TS]
00:42:37
◼
►
is probably more important than this to
[TS]
00:42:39
◼
►
apples overall corporate goals and SP
[TS]
00:42:42
◼
►
just supposed to be an AAC anyway it's
[TS]
00:42:44
◼
►
the future just use a different standard
[TS]
00:42:45
◼
►
format and those uh the the offset
[TS]
00:42:48
◼
►
things that can be all the front of the
[TS]
00:42:50
◼
►
yeah I love that magnetars thread that
[TS]
00:42:54
◼
►
just use a different format does not
[TS]
00:42:56
◼
►
solve all your problems that you know is
[TS]
00:42:58
◼
►
the best yeah all things you think you
[TS]
00:43:00
◼
►
can for example doesn't get your own
[TS]
00:43:01
◼
►
doesn't solve all your problems and then
[TS]
00:43:03
◼
►
I guess make every encoder on the planet
[TS]
00:43:05
◼
►
understand your new container format
[TS]
00:43:06
◼
►
will be fine
[TS]
00:43:07
◼
►
yeah this has been a lot of time on this
[TS]
00:43:09
◼
►
topic I'm sorry to everybody who doesn't
[TS]
00:43:11
◼
►
you probably not long ago but we
[TS]
00:43:14
◼
►
actually got a decent response on other
[TS]
00:43:15
◼
►
people actually enjoy hearing hearing
[TS]
00:43:17
◼
►
about all this crap I'm very surprised
[TS]
00:43:18
◼
►
by that actually but i guess our
[TS]
00:43:20
◼

listeners are are both cooler and
[TS]
00:43:22
◼

geekier than I then I would have assumed
[TS]
00:43:24
◼

they were definitely cooler here i'm not
[TS]
00:43:28

sure we also sponsor this week by

[TS]
00:43:58

here's how this works
[TS]
00:43:59
◼

the tractor itself is quite shipping it
[TS]
00:44:00

is it has on it a button and so when you
[TS]
00:44:03

push that button you can locate your

you can also launch the app on your

attached the tracker too so it's great

so John if the cell signal at your house
[TS]
00:45:17
◼
►
is so crappy why not and why not enable
[TS]
00:45:19
◼
►
Wi-Fi calling and solve all your
[TS]
00:45:21
◼
►
problems
[TS]
00:45:21
◼
►
the first reason I didn't enable this is
[TS]
00:45:23
◼
►
I didn't think my carrier supported it
[TS]
00:45:25
◼
►
but I was just looking at the wrong
[TS]
00:45:26
◼
►
place in settings for some reason I had
[TS]
00:45:28
◼
►
in my head that just ended only a tease
[TS]
00:45:30
◼
►
apart this is not verizon but not
[TS]
00:45:32
◼
►
verizon sports too
[TS]
00:45:33
◼
►
of course I've never gotten where the
[TS]
00:45:34
◼
►
setting is but anyway it's in there
[TS]
00:45:35
◼
►
somewhere you can find it but the second
[TS]
00:45:39
◼
►
thing is when I turned it on and like
[TS]
00:45:40
◼
►
okay alternate wanna give it a try it
[TS]
00:45:43
◼
►
makes you enter your physical address
[TS]
00:45:45
◼
►
because once you're on Wi-Fi calling if
[TS]
00:45:48
◼
►
you call 911 911 can immediately tell
[TS]
00:45:50
◼
►
where you are because you're you're
[TS]
00:45:52
◼
►
coming from the internet
[TS]
00:45:53
◼
►
essentially they can get a location for
[TS]
00:45:55
◼
►
you which is kinda weird because you can
[TS]
00:45:57
◼
►
get locations from Wi-Fi base station
[TS]
00:45:59
◼
►
and everything a lot of things use a and
[TS]
00:46:01
◼
►
use those that big map of base station
[TS]
00:46:04
◼
►
mac addresses physical locations and
[TS]
00:46:05
◼
►
stuff to help a location awareness but
[TS]
00:46:08
◼
►
anyway does what iOS says please enter a
[TS]
00:46:11
◼
►
physical location so when you call 911
[TS]
00:46:13
◼
►
if you can't if you're too injured to
[TS]
00:46:15
◼
►
speak into the phone or whatever
[TS]
00:46:17
◼
►
don't worry about that will come to this
[TS]
00:46:18
◼
►
address but of course that means that if
[TS]
00:46:21
◼
►
you go someplace else and you're on
[TS]
00:46:23
◼
►
Wi-Fi so you're working your own Wi-Fi
[TS]
00:46:25
◼
►
and you call 911 and don't get a chance
[TS]
00:46:27
◼
►
to tell them where you are they gonna go
[TS]
00:46:28
◼
►
to your house
[TS]
00:46:29
◼
►
that's my understanding anyway of what
[TS]
00:46:31
◼
►
this message telling me after this
[TS]
00:46:32
◼
►
address here if you call 911 this is
[TS]
00:46:34
◼
►
where people go to but I didn't enable
[TS]
00:46:37
◼
►
it because I'm like well then i have to
[TS]
00:46:40
◼
►
remember to turn off Wi-Fi calling when
[TS]
00:46:42
◼
►
i leave my house because then if i call
[TS]
00:46:45
◼
►
911 people go to my house instead of
[TS]
00:46:46
◼
►
where I am so that's one reason why i
[TS]
00:46:50
◼
►
didn't believe in on the second reason
[TS]
00:46:51
◼
►
is this is the stupidest reason that the
[TS]
00:46:54
◼
►
reason i think is only vaguely so I but
[TS]
00:46:56
◼
►
this reason is really done but
[TS]
00:46:58
◼
►
nevertheless is a reason everyone has
[TS]
00:47:00
◼
►
their reasons this is mine
[TS]
00:47:01
◼
►
it changes the thing that appears in the
[TS]
00:47:03
◼
►
status bar to make some ugly thing that
[TS]
00:47:05
◼
►
says like VZW whatever it doesn't say
[TS]
00:47:08
◼
►
like the horizon
[TS]
00:47:10
◼
►
fit Wi-Fi fan symbol it says different
[TS]
00:47:12
◼
►
words like in all caps and looks away i
[TS]
00:47:14
◼
►
don't like it that's a reason like I can
[TS]
00:47:18
◼
►
understand even though i think it's a
[TS]
00:47:19
◼
►
little ridiculous the whole address
[TS]
00:47:21
◼
►
thing fine whatever but because you
[TS]
00:47:24
◼
►
don't want to look at VZW in your status
[TS]
00:47:27
◼
►
bar that's your reason you you try to
[TS]
00:47:29
◼
►
turn it on and see what it does to your
[TS]
00:47:30
◼
►
status bar i use AT&T like a gentleman
[TS]
00:47:33
◼
►
and so it says AT&T Wi-Fi but it gets
[TS]
00:47:35
◼
►
rid of the fan thing isn't it or maybe
[TS]
00:47:36
◼
►
know anyway it changes what's the status
[TS]
00:47:38
◼
►
bar I didn't like it
[TS]
00:47:39
◼
►
location 1 is that is the larger reason
[TS]
00:47:42
◼
►
but I was kind of glad that I had a
[TS]
00:47:44
◼
►
legit reason why did it look at that I
[TS]
00:47:45
◼
►
could status bar anymore
[TS]
00:47:47
◼
►
it would be nice if like I was intense
[TS]
00:47:48
◼
►
movie would be and is enhancing would be
[TS]
00:47:50
◼
►
only used Wi-Fi calling when connected
[TS]
00:47:52
◼
►
to this base station i would like that
[TS]
00:47:54
◼
►
setting don't mean because then I could
[TS]
00:47:56
◼
►
say use Wi-Fi calling when connected to
[TS]
00:47:57
◼
►
my home base station but never anyplace
[TS]
00:47:59
◼
►
else and they don't have to worry about
[TS]
00:48:00
◼
►
this then i get my home address to my
[TS]
00:48:02
◼
►
home base station but no and anyway
[TS]
00:48:04
◼
►
after I made the decision I made a
[TS]
00:48:07
◼
►
couple of successful voice coil calls
[TS]
00:48:09
◼
►
from my house where people could
[TS]
00:48:10
◼
►
actually hear my voice so maybe a
[TS]
00:48:12
◼
►
verizon loves me for coming back to them
[TS]
00:48:15
◼
►
and not using this filthy Internet
[TS]
00:48:16
◼
►
calling ok alright well I don't even
[TS]
00:48:22
◼
►

◼
►

[TS]
00:48:29
◼
►

[TS]
00:49:29
◼

it ran 21 days on the stock ram without
[TS]
00:49:33
◼
►
a UPS and without a GPS I've gotten in

00:49:35
◼

[TS]
00:49:44
◼
►
receiving a RMA return merchandise
[TS]
00:49:46
◼
►
authorization so I think that stands for
[TS]
00:49:48
◼
►
you i think what they're doing is
[TS]
00:49:50
◼
►
sending me a box to send the ran back in
[TS]
00:49:51
◼
►
and they said they will replace it
[TS]
00:49:52
◼
►
posthaste
[TS]
00:49:53
◼
►
I have plugged into the UPS i have
[TS]
00:49:57
◼
►
pulled the UPS power and seen the imax
[TS]
00:50:01
◼
►
day on for at least long enough to make
[TS]
00:50:03
◼
►
me feel better about myself i did not
[TS]
00:50:05
◼
►
leave it disconnected long enough to see
[TS]
00:50:08
◼
►
whether or not the technology would be
[TS]
00:50:10
◼
►
smart enough to shut itself down but i
[TS]
00:50:12
◼
►
believe i have those settings squared
[TS]
00:50:14
◼
►
away in this technology so it should
[TS]
00:50:15
◼
►
shut itself down gracefully the imac
[TS]
00:50:17
◼
►
won't but you know I'm used to that this
[TS]
00:50:19
◼
►
point anyway hail so anyway I i am
[TS]
00:50:23
◼
►
running still on the eight gigs of stock
[TS]
00:50:25
◼
►
ram until I receive my new new batch of
[TS]
00:50:29
◼
►
owc ram i will try that if that doesn't
[TS]
00:50:32
◼
►
work then i will probably very politely
[TS]
00:50:35
◼
►
but very sternly ask for my money back
[TS]
00:50:36
◼
►
and get crucial ram which the entire
[TS]
00:50:38
◼
►
Internet has written to tell me is the
[TS]
00:50:40
◼
►
only ram i should ever really buy and so
[TS]
00:50:42
◼
►
I think crucial buyers any different ram
[TS]
00:50:44
◼
►
the notary set forget someone at one
[TS]
00:50:46
◼
►
point sent me a long email telling me
[TS]
00:50:48
◼
►
about the different bins of who buys the
[TS]
00:50:50
◼
►
good chips versus the cheaper chips and
[TS]
00:50:51
◼
►
I think Chris was in the same thing with
[TS]
00:50:53
◼
►
that bc but anyway I've bought OBC ran
[TS]
00:50:55
◼
►
for years and like i said i think the
[TS]
00:50:57
◼
►
last time i had owc thing go bad
[TS]
00:51:00
◼
►
the chip because my computer is ancient
[TS]
00:51:01
◼
►
the chip the the the ram the dam was
[TS]
00:51:04
◼
►
like four years old five years old maybe
[TS]
00:51:07
◼
►
was six years old like whatever it is I
[TS]
00:51:09
◼
►

00:51:11
◼
►

◼
►
it must be completely gone by now but i
[TS]
00:51:15
◼
►

[TS]
00:51:19
◼
►
forever lifetime of this Ram everyone's
[TS]
00:51:21
◼
►
bad they'll just replace it forever and
[TS]
00:51:22
◼
►
ever and I know it's a hassle to return
[TS]
00:51:23
◼
►
if you have to keep returning it's a
[TS]
00:51:25
◼
►
pain but I've had them last for years
[TS]
00:51:27
◼
►
and years and then go bad years later

00:51:29
◼
►

[TS]
00:51:42
◼
►
around that you would buy separately
[TS]
00:51:43
◼
►
from computer like yourself
[TS]
00:51:44
◼
►
they almost all have lifetime guarantees
[TS]
00:51:46
◼
►
but it's you know it's up to the
[TS]
00:51:48
◼
►
retailer or the manufacturer to make
[TS]
00:51:50
◼
►
that a good or bad experience if you
[TS]
00:51:52
◼
►
actually have to clean it and I too have
[TS]
00:51:54
◼
►
had only good experiences with obviously
[TS]
00:51:57
◼
►
rama i don't use anymore now I just by
[TS]
00:51:59
◼
►
my computer with my friend from apple
[TS]
00:52:00
◼
►
because I'd rather not deal with anymore
[TS]
00:52:01
◼
►
and the odbc ram when i was using it
[TS]
00:52:05
◼
►
because up until like two years ago was
[TS]
00:52:07
◼
►
always great i had to I had to return it
[TS]
00:52:09
◼
►
one time and that was you know one time
[TS]
00:52:12
◼
►
in something like eight years of using
[TS]
00:52:14
◼
►
it i think it's pretty good yeah and I
[TS]
00:52:17
◼
►
mean they've been really good about it
[TS]
00:52:18
◼
►
so far I didn't expressly reach out to
[TS]
00:52:20
◼
►
them they reached out to me at twitter
[TS]
00:52:21
◼
►
i'm not entirely clear how they caught
[TS]
00:52:23
◼
►
wind of the fact that I was having
[TS]
00:52:24
◼
►
issues but they just basically said hey
[TS]
00:52:27
◼
►
can you send us an email and we'll talk
[TS]
00:52:29
◼
►
about it and I said hey here's the
[TS]
00:52:31
◼
►
situation and I spelled it out and said
[TS]
00:52:35
◼
►
you know it did it had been rebooting
[TS]
00:52:36
◼
►
every week look at this it's now running
[TS]
00:52:38
◼
►
for 20-some days at this point I feel
[TS]
00:52:41
◼
►
like it's the ram so they said yeah
[TS]
00:52:44
◼
►
you're probably right i will get you in
[TS]
00:52:47
◼
►
RNA and we will replace it immediately

00:59:46
◼

oversized microwave maybe more than 16
[TS]
00:59:48
◼

years old but I should look at the date
[TS]
00:59:50
◼

on the back of I should see exactly how
[TS]
00:59:51
◼

old that it's better than that no DVR so
[TS]
00:59:55
◼

that's for sure
[TS]
00:59:55
◼

fair enough we had spoken a few episodes
[TS]
01:00:00
◼

though about Twitter verification
[TS]
01:00:02
◼
►
because all three of us and verified and
[TS]
01:00:05
◼
►
a friend of the show brand-new has been
[TS]
01:00:08
◼
►
verified now in the last week or so and
[TS]
01:00:12
◼

apparently it's made everything in men
[TS]
01:00:15
◼

sleep better
[TS]
01:00:17

Brianna tweeted a couple days ago to

single death threat or rape threats
[TS]
01:00:22
◼

since being verified and getting the
[TS]
01:00:24
◼
►
quote quality filter quote everyone
[TS]
01:00:26
◼
►
should have this funny how that works
[TS]
01:00:29
◼
►
yeah that's exactly what I mean like
[TS]
01:00:31
◼
►
like we we talked last time like I joked
[TS]
01:00:33
◼
►
like we have computers now like the any
[TS]
01:00:35
◼
►
could be any computational overhead of
[TS]
01:00:36
◼
►
offering this to everybody like the idea
[TS]
01:00:38
◼
►
that's totally worth it and we sense
[TS]
01:00:41
◼
►
heard a little bit more discussion from
[TS]
01:00:42
◼
►
various other places about it it seems
[TS]
01:00:44
◼
►
like the the gist of the problem here is
[TS]
01:00:46
◼
►
not that turn this on one be
[TS]
01:00:48
◼
►
computationally expensive for everybody
[TS]
01:00:50
◼
►
it's it's that Twitter it fundamentally
[TS]
01:00:53
◼
►
twitter is very very tied to the idea
[TS]
01:00:57
◼
►
internally politically that this should
[TS]
01:01:00
◼
►
be this kind of open platform and that
[TS]
01:01:02
◼
►
there should be no filters by default
[TS]
01:01:04
◼
►
and that's a really nice Theory so is
[TS]
01:01:07
◼
►
communism but in practice these things
[TS]
01:01:09
◼
►
don't look quite that well you know like
[TS]
01:01:11
◼
►
it is really ideal and that would be
[TS]
01:01:13
◼
►
nice and it worked that way for awhile
[TS]
01:01:15
◼
►
and that's cool but you know the reality
[TS]
01:01:18
◼
►
is the harassment problem is very big
[TS]
01:01:20
◼
►
and very real and that wonderful world
[TS]
01:01:23
◼
►
where anybody could be anybody in it and
[TS]
01:01:25
◼
►
they would see it by default i think
[TS]
01:01:28
◼
►
that's a nice idea like blog comments
[TS]
01:01:30
◼
►
like that's a nice idea but you know in
[TS]
01:01:32
◼
►
practice it doesn't work in practice
[TS]
01:01:34
◼
►
lots of problems with that so I maintain
[TS]
01:01:37
◼
►
that this should know that the the
[TS]
01:01:40
◼
►
quality filter feature that is available

should be available to everybody but i'd
[TS]
01:01:45
◼

even say it should be on by default we
[TS]
01:01:48
◼

have not agree with that yeah I don't
[TS]
01:01:50
◼

know why you wouldn't have it on by
[TS]
01:01:51
◼

default i guess the idea that maybe the
[TS]
01:01:53
◼

filter is bad and things will
[TS]
01:01:55
◼

accidentally get filtered out but like
[TS]
01:01:56
◼

it's not like you
[TS]
01:01:58
◼

it's like gmail has spam filtering off
[TS]
01:01:59

by default of course right yeah

sometimes things end up in your spam

[TS]
01:02:09
◼

yeah I don't get it finally in follow-up
[TS]
01:02:13
◼

and over an hour in a few people have
[TS]
01:02:17
◼

taken to task for saying in the last
[TS]
01:02:19
◼
►
episode of me was one reason episodes
[TS]
01:02:22
◼
►
that I was not satisfied with apples
[TS]
01:02:25
◼
►
diversity numbers particularly with
[TS]
01:02:27
◼
►
ethnicities and and how many white
[TS]
01:02:32
◼
►
employees apple has as opposed to other
[TS]
01:02:35
◼
►
races and what I said was you know hey
[TS]
01:02:38
◼
►
this is really unfortunate or in and it
[TS]
01:02:41
◼
►
looks like as I look at these numbers
[TS]
01:02:43
◼
►
again fifty-six percent of apples white
[TS]
01:02:45
◼
►
as a self-report today and a lot of
[TS]
01:02:47
◼
►
people said in various degrees of
[TS]
01:02:49
◼
►
obnoxiousness what's the appropriate
[TS]
01:02:51
◼
►
amount of diversity because the country
[TS]
01:02:52
◼
►
is I don't have those numbers in front
[TS]
01:02:54
◼
►
of me but something like sixty or
[TS]
01:02:56
◼
►
seventy percent white so if they're less
[TS]
01:02:59
◼
►
white than America then what's the
[TS]
01:03:02
◼
►
problem and I don't have any simple
[TS]
01:03:05
◼
►
answer for that it's it's something I
[TS]
01:03:07
◼
►
hadn't considered and it is a fair point
[TS]
01:03:08
◼
►
but i would i would point out that not
[TS]
01:03:12
◼
►
all of apple's in America and so that
[TS]
01:03:15
◼
►
probably should be factored in as well
[TS]
01:03:16
◼
►
but i think the the biggest thing to me
[TS]
01:03:21
◼
►
was that Apple seems to have made not a
[TS]
01:03:25
◼
►
lot of change from just a couple of
[TS]
01:03:27
◼
►
years ago when they started reporting
[TS]
01:03:29
◼
►
this which I admire they didn't make
[TS]
01:03:31
◼
►
that much change yet it seems like the
[TS]
01:03:35
◼
►
thing that was completely unacceptable
[TS]
01:03:37
◼
►
couple a couple years ago is now look at
[TS]
01:03:39
◼
►
us and how wonderful we are and that
[TS]
01:03:41
◼
►
just seems kind of weird to me i don't
[TS]
01:03:45
◼
►
know if you guys had any thoughts on
[TS]
01:03:46
◼
►
this but that that's basically the thing
[TS]
01:03:48
◼
►
that I still stand by which is it hasn't
[TS]
01:03:52
◼
►
gotten that much better why are we
[TS]
01:03:53
◼
►
really celebrating it like it's
[TS]
01:03:54
◼
►
completely turned around so before we
[TS]
01:03:57
◼
►
let John tell us the truth and why this
[TS]
01:03:58
◼
►
is you know before the John basically
[TS]
01:04:01
◼
►
like rock this and and do everything
[TS]
01:04:03
◼
►
correctly i will just kind of speak for
[TS]
01:04:05
◼
►
for myself and for i think a lot of
[TS]
01:04:07
◼
►
people who listen to this kind of stuff
[TS]
01:04:09
◼
►
and you see these kind of things I know
[TS]
01:04:12
◼
►
that be having been just in the in the
[TS]
01:04:15
◼
►
area of people discussing this for a
[TS]
01:04:17
◼
►
while now I know now that it is like it
[TS]
01:04:23
◼
►
never that simple and so it like when
[TS]
01:04:25
◼
►
you when you throw a stat like well you
[TS]
01:04:27
◼
►
know America's x percent white and so
[TS]
01:04:29
◼
►
that's fine like it is usually not that
[TS]
01:04:32
◼
►
simple and so I know to keep my mouth
[TS]
01:04:35
◼
►
shut with things like that because I
[TS]
01:04:37
◼
►
know like I hear someone that I'd be
[TS]
01:04:38
◼
►
like yeah that might make logical sense
[TS]
01:04:40
◼
►
when you read it like 140 characters but
[TS]
01:04:43
◼
►
I bet there's more to the issue than
[TS]
01:04:44
◼
►
that and so it's important when you are
[TS]
01:04:48
◼
►
responding to people not UKC but youyou
[TS]
01:04:50
◼
►
the public and I'm talking myself to
[TS]
01:04:52
◼
►
like don't jump to a conclusion that
[TS]
01:04:55
◼
►
because chances are the issue is way
[TS]
01:04:56
◼
►
more complicated than that
[TS]
01:04:58
◼
►
so John tell us why I was gonna start
[TS]
01:05:02
◼
►
getting anything but i'm i'm basically
[TS]
01:05:03
◼
►
on what you just said that's a that's
[TS]
01:05:06
◼
►
something I always notice on Twitter
[TS]
01:05:08
◼
►
when we all notice that to some degree
[TS]
01:05:09
◼
►
or another whether we're doing it
[TS]
01:05:11
◼
►
ourselves we see other people doing it
[TS]
01:05:12
◼
►
where people will start from the premise
[TS]
01:05:18
◼
►
and then start throwing out facts and
[TS]
01:05:19
◼
►
support of that and it's fine right
[TS]
01:05:22
◼
►
because why wouldn't you you know you
[TS]
01:05:24
◼
►
this is what you think and so you will
[TS]
01:05:26
◼
►
find facts that support what you think
[TS]
01:05:27
◼
►
of when you will list those facts but so
[TS]
01:05:30
◼
►
is important to kind of ask yourself why
[TS]
01:05:34
◼
►
like why am i seeking out the fact that
[TS]
01:05:37
◼
►
i can find that align with this thing
[TS]
01:05:39
◼
►
that I already think like am I actually
[TS]
01:05:41
◼
►
thinking about the situation where I
[TS]
01:05:43
◼
►
merely just trying to find something
[TS]
01:05:44
◼
►
that was formerly so that maybe I mean
[TS]
01:05:47
◼
►
it's you know it's like university but
[TS]
01:05:49
◼
►
perhaps someone who was telling Casey
[TS]
01:05:51
◼
►
hey you you said this percentage is bad
[TS]
01:05:53
◼
►
but it's about the ratio of the you know
[TS]
01:05:57
◼
►
the people united states its you have to
[TS]
01:05:59
◼
►
go look up the ratio of the people
[TS]
01:06:01
◼
►
United States you could do is this a bad
[TS]
01:06:02
◼
►
example because they're probably
[TS]
01:06:03
◼
►
completely intellectually honest but a
[TS]
01:06:04
◼
►
lot of times it's easy to see an issue
[TS]
01:06:05
◼
►
come up and people immediately go
[TS]
01:06:09
◼
►
looking for something making throughout
[TS]
01:06:11
◼
►
that supports their thing never really
[TS]
01:06:13
◼
►
asking why am I so desperate to find
[TS]
01:06:15
◼
►
things to that support this rather than
[TS]
01:06:17
◼
►
you know looking at the looking at the
[TS]
01:06:19
◼
►
issue from first principles are
[TS]
01:06:21
◼
►
understanding that the wider context
[TS]
01:06:22
◼
►
because they'll always be things
[TS]
01:06:23
◼
►
especially you know statistics that can
[TS]
01:06:25
◼
►
help support one side of the other but
[TS]
01:06:28
◼
►
if you're only ever looking for and
[TS]
01:06:29
◼
►
saying repeatedly to anyone who mentions
[TS]
01:06:30
◼
►
anything about the topic
[TS]
01:06:32
◼
►
the few facts you have in your back
[TS]
01:06:33
◼
►
pocket that support the one thing that
[TS]
01:06:35
◼
►
you care about you probably are missing
[TS]
01:06:37
◼
►
the larger issue and what you really
[TS]
01:06:38
◼
►
missing more is why is it so important
[TS]
01:06:40
◼
►
to you that your current view of this
[TS]
01:06:42
◼
►
exactly correct
[TS]
01:06:44
◼
►
so anyway as for the specific stats i
[TS]
01:06:47
◼
►
don't know i thought the stats were just
[TS]
01:06:49
◼
►
us only so i think their percentages for
[TS]
01:06:51
◼
►
you know the white employees that are
[TS]
01:06:53
◼
►
actually accurate to the United States
[TS]
01:06:56
◼
►
the United States has that percentage of
[TS]
01:06:57
◼
►
the population and that's their you know
[TS]
01:06:58
◼
►
so i thought that was an apt comparison
[TS]
01:07:00
◼
►
but like Marco said it's never quite
[TS]
01:07:02
◼
►
that simple because you know especially
[TS]
01:07:04
◼
►
with statistics you can
[TS]
01:07:06
◼
►
they're taking like all their employees
[TS]
01:07:07
◼
►
right and all us employees Apple employs
[TS]
01:07:11
◼
►
a lot of people and are not all those
[TS]
01:07:13
◼
►
jobs are the same if you start looking
[TS]
01:07:15
◼
►
at different sections of employees the
[TS]
01:07:17
◼
►
percentages I think they do this don't
[TS]
01:07:18
◼
►
break it down the page and the the
[TS]
01:07:20
◼
►
percentages will change you know pretty
[TS]
01:07:23
◼
►
dramatically by five to ten percent
[TS]
01:07:25
◼
►
maybe even more if you look at like the
[TS]
01:07:28
◼
►
top level of the org chart
[TS]
01:07:30
◼
►
director-level c-level executives they
[TS]
01:07:33
◼
►
are not 56% white right so and then all
[TS]
01:07:38
◼
►
the way down to look at engineering vs
[TS]
01:07:40
◼
►
QA vs retail versus you know all the
[TS]
01:07:42
◼
►
different any other different
[TS]
01:07:44
◼
►
categorizations if you want them all
[TS]
01:07:46
◼
►
together it's nice to get a nice a great
[TS]
01:07:47
◼
►
but you don't know what the pieces are
[TS]
01:07:48
◼
►
right and so that that's not apples not
[TS]
01:07:51
◼
►
trying to mislead anybody there they're
[TS]
01:07:53
◼
►
not going to break down there they're
[TS]
01:07:55
◼
►
hiring in their employees by individual
[TS]
01:07:57
◼
►
job level and location and and what what
[TS]
01:08:00
◼
►
is the population in the state of
[TS]
01:08:01
◼
►
Maryland and one of the retail boys in
[TS]
01:08:03
◼
►
the state of Maryland and what about you
[TS]
01:08:04
◼
►
like it's just they're not going to do
[TS]
01:08:06
◼
►
that right but that is Apple's job
[TS]
01:08:07
◼
►
internally to work on this problem
[TS]
01:08:10
◼
►
because if their overall numbers
[TS]
01:08:12
◼
►
happened to work out to the same
[TS]
01:08:14
◼
►
percentage of the United States but it's
[TS]
01:08:16
◼
►
only because like all the leaders of the
[TS]
01:08:18
◼
►
company or white men and all the rest of
[TS]
01:08:20
◼
►
the company or not that's not that you
[TS]
01:08:23
◼
►
not achieving your goal of diversity
[TS]
01:08:25
◼
►
write your goal is not to make a bunch
[TS]
01:08:26
◼
►
of numbers match a bunch of the numbers
[TS]
01:08:28
◼
►
you can always pick numbers to make it
[TS]
01:08:29
◼
►
look better or worse and some degree
[TS]
01:08:31
◼
►
apple may be doing that in the
[TS]
01:08:32
◼
►
high-level numbers that are up there but
[TS]
01:08:34
◼
►
that's not the goal of the thing you
[TS]
01:08:35
◼
►
you're not Apple is not an amorphous
[TS]
01:08:37
◼
►
blob of people are combined into one
[TS]
01:08:39
◼
►
google person they're a bunch of
[TS]
01:08:40
◼
►
individual people and you want to know
[TS]
01:08:43
◼
►
if you know if I get a job at out
[TS]
01:08:45
◼
►
what are my chances of you know being in
[TS]
01:08:48
◼
►
charge of all software an apple
[TS]
01:08:50
◼
►
what are my chances of raising a rising
[TS]
01:08:52
◼
►
to the level of the org chart where I'm
[TS]
01:08:53
◼
►
taking meetings with the with tim cook
[TS]
01:08:55
◼
►
and stuff what you know what are my odds
[TS]
01:08:57
◼
►
of becoming a an engineering manager or
[TS]
01:09:00
◼
►
leading whatever and if you look around
[TS]
01:09:01
◼
►
you an apple and it's like gee everybody
[TS]
01:09:02
◼
►
who's engineering manager is a white
[TS]
01:09:04
◼
►
dude and everyone in the board meetings
[TS]
01:09:07
◼
►
as a white dude and everybody was
[TS]
01:09:09
◼
►
onstage WBC's a white dude as as you
[TS]
01:09:11
◼
►
know to a first approximation that was
[TS]
01:09:13
◼
►
the case
[TS]
01:09:14
◼
►
not too many years ago and you know like
[TS]
01:09:16
◼
►
that even now that file the company like
[TS]
01:09:18
◼
►
that maybe you feel like oh sure I can
[TS]
01:09:20
◼
►
get a job at an apple store they're good
[TS]
01:09:22
◼
►
at it but like can I you know it
[TS]
01:09:25
◼
►
do I feel like this company is a is
[TS]
01:09:29
◼
►
giving equal opportunity to everybody
[TS]
01:09:30
◼
►
and that's what Apple is working towards
[TS]
01:09:32
◼
►
and I don't think they have yet achieved
[TS]
01:09:33
◼
►
it was about to be putting out these
[TS]
01:09:35
◼
►
numbers so that case he said it were if
[TS]
01:09:40
◼
►
these numbers were given these big
[TS]
01:09:41
◼
►
aggregates and they haven't changed that
[TS]
01:09:43
◼
►
much from from year to year two shows
[TS]
01:09:45
◼
►
they're making slow progress right and
[TS]
01:09:47
◼
►
so it's not phenomenal progress but it
[TS]
01:09:49
◼
►
certainly doesn't mean because you can
[TS]
01:09:50
◼
►
say fifty six percent less than sixty
[TS]
01:09:52
◼
►
percent therefore there done that
[TS]
01:09:53
◼
►
absolutely doesn't mean that because it
[TS]
01:09:55
◼
►
doesn't take much thinking to realize
[TS]
01:09:57
◼
►
well that's just a bigger your number
[TS]
01:09:58
◼
►
and it's not that's not the goal the
[TS]
01:10:00
◼
►
goal is not to simply people are asking
[TS]
01:10:01
◼
►
that i can honestly asking like what is
[TS]
01:10:03
◼
►
the goal what numbers you supposed to
[TS]
01:10:05
◼
►
see here to let you know that Apple has
[TS]
01:10:07
◼
►
achieved its goal of diversity and the
[TS]
01:10:09
◼
►
answer is those numbers are never going
[TS]
01:10:11
◼
►
to tell you that right otherwise you
[TS]
01:10:13
◼
►
know they wouldn't they wouldn't be
[TS]
01:10:14
◼
►
continuing along this path they were
[TS]
01:10:15
◼
►
just say when we're done we've
[TS]
01:10:16
◼
►
accomplished our goal is not great right
[TS]
01:10:18
◼
►
and that's before you even get into the
[TS]
01:10:21
◼

office of like percentage of US
[TS]
01:10:22
◼

population versus percentage of US
[TS]

population of working-age like not

stories and stories good ideas that's

01:12:28
◼

top of Instagram recently that's
[TS]

confusing all the old people like me

◼

01:12:33
◼
►
your wife's face is always up there she
[TS]
01:12:37
◼

figured out very quickly because she is
[TS]
01:12:40
◼
►
young at heart and also biologically
[TS]
01:12:42
◼
►
then I am I am 2014 13 pounds i think
[TS]
01:12:47
◼
►
like six about sex yet so I i am too old
[TS]
01:12:52
◼
►
to understand snapchat so instagram has
[TS]
01:12:55
◼
►
basically cloned a a major part of
[TS]
01:12:58
◼
►
snapchat into the Instagram interface
[TS]
01:13:00
◼
►
which has just confused
[TS]
01:13:02
◼
►
instagram for me and now I have this row
[TS]
01:13:05
◼
►
of heads on top of instagram i tap them
[TS]
01:13:07
◼
►
and weird things happen and I don't
[TS]
01:13:09
◼
►
really know what I'm supposed to be
[TS]
01:13:10
◼
►
doing with this can you explain to me
[TS]
01:13:11
◼
►
so John a year i don't think i've seen
[TS]
01:13:14
◼
►
any post from you yet so you're not
[TS]
01:13:16
◼
►
producing using this although i presume
[TS]
01:13:19
◼
►
you're at least consuming it is that
[TS]
01:13:21
◼
►
yeah I don't see myself wearing one of
[TS]
01:13:23
◼
►
these videos but they're up there on the
[TS]
01:13:24
◼
►
top of the faces
[TS]
01:13:25
◼
►
ok so the idea here from what I can
[TS]
01:13:29
◼
►
understand someone who's never used
[TS]
01:13:30
◼
►
snapchat and didn't really have any
[TS]
01:13:32
◼
►
interest in snapchat is with instagram
[TS]
01:13:35
◼
►
stories you can take a photo or a video
[TS]
01:13:40
◼
►
that is semi ephemeral so I believe it's
[TS]
01:13:44
◼
►
after a day they will self-destruct and
[TS]
01:13:47
◼
►
your phone explodes it's very
[TS]
01:13:49
◼
►
inconvenient now they will self-destruct
[TS]
01:13:50
◼
►
and then they won't be available anymore
[TS]
01:13:53
◼
►
not to you not to anyone else and so the
[TS]
01:13:55
◼
►
idea is if your Instagram profile in the
[TS]
01:14:00
◼
►
photos that you post on Instagram proper
[TS]
01:14:02
◼
►
is the like super stage super deliberate
[TS]
01:14:06
◼
►
super-serious version of you
[TS]
01:14:08
◼
►
instagram stories which is this
[TS]
01:14:10
◼
►
ephemeral thing is more of the candied
[TS]
01:14:14
◼
►
fun-loving like a here's here's me
[TS]
01:14:16
◼
►
here's the real me
[TS]
01:14:18
◼
►
take it or leave it sort of thing and I
[TS]
01:14:20
◼
►
actually wanted to call out the latest
[TS]
01:14:23
◼
►
episode of connected which is episode 13
[TS]
01:14:25
◼
►
the hosted a really incredible job of of
[TS]
01:14:30
◼
►
talking about kind of what the
[TS]
01:14:31
◼
►
motivations are behind Instagram stories
[TS]
01:14:33
◼
►
and how it's different than than regular
[TS]
01:14:36
◼
►
Instagram but regardless I've really
[TS]
01:14:40
◼
►
been enjoying it a lot more than I
[TS]
01:14:42
◼
►
thought I would as someone who had not
[TS]
01:14:44
◼
►
even the slightest interest in snapchat
[TS]
01:14:46
◼
►
and one of the common complaints about
[TS]
01:14:48
◼
►
snapchat that I've understood is that
[TS]
01:14:50
◼
►
anyone who is over the age of about
[TS]
01:14:52
◼
►
eighteen finds the interface completely
[TS]
01:14:54
◼
►
inscrutable and everything's
[TS]
01:14:56
◼
►
gesture-based and as much as we all hate
[TS]
01:14:59
◼
►
tutorials as you install an app for the
[TS]
01:15:01
◼
►
first time there this is one of those
[TS]
01:15:04
◼
►
instances where a tutorial or
[TS]
01:15:05
◼
►
walkthrough or onboarding would have
[TS]
01:15:08
◼
►
perhaps been useful in snapchat because
[TS]
01:15:11
◼
►
everything's gesture-based nothing
[TS]
01:15:12
◼
►
obvious everything's weird Instagram
[TS]
01:15:15
◼
►
there's a little bit of that Instagram
[TS]
01:15:16
◼
►
stories but it's not nearly as bad and i
[TS]
01:15:19
◼
►
was able to figure it out pretty quickly
[TS]
01:15:21
◼
►
and I'd classify myself as an old man
[TS]
01:15:24
◼
►
just as much as you two are and I've
[TS]
01:15:27
◼
►
been enjoying both consuming and
[TS]
01:15:28
◼
►
creating one of the things I've wondered
[TS]
01:15:31
◼
►
as I consider whether or not to post a
[TS]
01:15:33
◼
►
new entry in my Instagram story which
[TS]
01:15:35
◼
►
sounds super cheesy but anyway one of
[TS]
01:15:38
◼
►
these have been considering is why would
[TS]
01:15:40
◼
►
anyone else give a crap about this so
[TS]
01:15:42
◼
►
like as an example i was going to take a
[TS]
01:15:44
◼
►
picture my setup at work and you know
[TS]
01:15:47
◼
►
after having obscured that the sensitive
[TS]
01:15:49
◼
►
parts of what was on my computer screen
[TS]
01:15:51
◼
►
and then it occurred to me i don't think
[TS]
01:15:53
◼
►
anyone really gives crap and so while i
[TS]
01:15:55
◼
►
was at the beach you know it i'm on
[TS]
01:15:57
◼
►
vacation we that's exciting and kinda
[TS]
01:15:59
◼
►
cool or whatever I i posted a handful of
[TS]
01:16:02
◼
►
times then but now that I'm back in my
[TS]
01:16:05
◼
►
normal grind well it's not my normal
[TS]
01:16:07
◼
►
high roller
[TS]
01:16:08
◼
►
you know look at me I'm so awesome life
[TS]
01:16:10
◼
►
it's my normal grind so I don't know if
[TS]
01:16:12
◼
►
I'll be producing that much for posting
[TS]
01:16:15
◼
►
that often of from now until the next
[TS]
01:16:18
◼
►
time I do something interesting but i
[TS]
01:16:21
◼
►
really liked the idea and I echo what
[TS]
01:16:23
◼
►
Mike it said on unconnected with a nice
[TS]
01:16:27
◼
►
talk about it and he and I both talked
[TS]
01:16:28
◼
►
about this on analog as well that
[TS]
01:16:30
◼
►
Instagram is kind of my happy social
[TS]
01:16:32
◼
►
network i get a lot out of out of
[TS]
01:16:35
◼
►
Twitter and I enjoy twitter but Twitter
[TS]
01:16:37
◼
►
is nevertheless kind of a dumpster fire
[TS]
01:16:41
◼
►
where I cannot remember a time that
[TS]
01:16:44
◼
►
instagram has made me anything but happy
[TS]
01:16:47
◼
►
and even with stories it makes me happy
[TS]
01:16:50
◼
►
in a different way because it's kind of
[TS]
01:16:51
◼
►
the fun ephemeral you know hey it's not
[TS]
01:16:54
◼
►
gonna be perfect and that's okay because
[TS]
01:16:55
◼
►
life isn't perfect and and it's brought
[TS]
01:16:58
◼
►
and this is a super sleazy business
[TS]
01:17:01
◼
►
eater but it's brought my engagement
[TS]
01:17:02
◼
►
with instagram up even more and I check
[TS]
01:17:04
◼
►
Instagram a handful times a day because
[TS]
01:17:06
◼
►
I enjoyed so much but now I found myself
[TS]
01:17:08
◼
►
checking it more often wondering which
[TS]
01:17:10
◼
►
one of my friends because I tend to
[TS]
01:17:11
◼
►
follow mostly friends on Instagram which
[TS]
01:17:14
◼
►
one of my friends posted something new
[TS]
01:17:15
◼
►
and something worth looking at and so I
[TS]
01:17:17
◼
►
have really been enjoying it two thumbs
[TS]
01:17:20
◼
►
up from me
[TS]
01:17:21
◼
►
I think it's super super interesting and
[TS]
01:17:23
◼
►
it seems to have traction so far don't
[TS]
01:17:26
◼
►
think it's a flash-in-the-pan this isn't
[TS]
01:17:29
◼
►

[TS]
01:17:44
◼
►

[TS]
01:17:45
◼
►
literally a search and I never wanted to
[TS]
01:17:47
◼
►
search for anything so I never visited
[TS]
01:17:49
◼
►
that tab and it turns out it's more like
[TS]
01:17:51
◼
►
a browser Explorer view and you kinda
[TS]
01:17:54
◼
►
let you know you like you pick topics so

01:17:59
◼
►

[TS]
01:18:02
◼
►

[TS]
01:18:04
◼
►

[TS]
01:18:05
◼
►
Instagram is is just feel good place it
[TS]
01:18:08
◼
►
is both to browse and to post it is a
[TS]
01:18:11
◼
►
just nice place to be
[TS]
01:18:12
◼
►
people aren't universally terrible on my
[TS]
01:18:15
◼
►
Twitter well i'm in general like I'm
[TS]
01:18:18
◼
►
saying even including all services that
[TS]
01:18:20
◼
►
we have people in general are not
[TS]
01:18:22
◼
►
terrible
[TS]
01:18:23
◼
►
the design of a social thing online and
[TS]
01:18:27
◼
►
social constructs social service like
[TS]
01:18:28
◼
►
the whole design of it the structure
[TS]
01:18:31
◼
►
what's allowed what's possible how
[TS]
01:18:34
◼
►
things work who sees what that all
[TS]
01:18:37
◼
►
effects how you how horrible people are
[TS]
01:18:41
◼
►
are enabled to be and how and what kind
[TS]
01:18:44
◼
►
of impact
[TS]
01:18:44
◼
►
they're horribleness can have so the
[TS]
01:18:46
◼
►
same like the same group of people can
[TS]
01:18:49
◼
►
use two different services and act very
[TS]
01:18:51
◼
►
differently on them and get very
[TS]
01:18:53
◼
►
different things out of them because
[TS]
01:18:54
◼
►
because of differences in their design
[TS]
01:18:55
◼
►
and so even if the exact same even if
[TS]
01:18:58
◼
►
Twitter's entire user base is also
[TS]
01:19:00
◼
►
facebook is also instagrams exactly is
[TS]
01:19:02
◼
►
your base you have better results on
[TS]
01:19:04
◼
►
instagram because just the form and the
[TS]
01:19:07
◼
►
structure and like the way everything
[TS]
01:19:08
◼
►
works in a set of expectations of of it
[TS]
01:19:11
◼
►
and the format and everything just
[TS]
01:19:12
◼
►
encourage better behavior and limit the
[TS]
01:19:15
◼
►
places people can be horrible to you
[TS]
01:19:17
◼
►
so that's good what worries me about
[TS]
01:19:20
◼
►
this and you know and I want to
[TS]
01:19:22
◼
►
interview snapchat was you know the end
[TS]
01:19:24
◼
►
again yet that conversation connected
[TS]
01:19:25
◼
►
was awesome and willing to it one of the
[TS]
01:19:28
◼
►
reasons i never had to get into it was
[TS]
01:19:30
◼
►
because no one that I know really uses
[TS]
01:19:33
◼
►
it like all the people i would be
[TS]
01:19:35
◼
►
interacting with our on twitter and
[TS]
01:19:36
◼
►
instagram so I don't need to use first
[TS]
01:19:39
◼
►
of all don't use facebook which is great
[TS]
01:19:41
◼
►
because i want to use facebook and i
[TS]
01:19:43
◼
►
also and yes i know they own it and it
[TS]
01:19:44
◼
►
doesn't matter and i also never had to
[TS]
01:19:47
◼
►
use snapchat because just you know my
[TS]
01:19:49
◼
►
people aren't there really so to bring
[TS]
01:19:52
◼
►
that to Instagram to basically bring
[TS]
01:19:54
◼
►
like a major feature of snapchat to
[TS]
01:19:56
◼
►
Instagram is kind of okay
[TS]
01:20:00
◼
►
on one level because it's like well I
[TS]
01:20:02
◼
►
was gonna use snapchat anyway because my
[TS]
01:20:05
◼
►
friends weren't there but on the other
[TS]
01:20:07
◼
►
hand it really shows what you know
[TS]
01:20:09
◼
►
Facebook has always been a very
[TS]
01:20:10
◼
►
tasteless company
[TS]
01:20:12
◼
►
facebook is pragmatic and ruthless and
[TS]
01:20:14
◼
►
tasteless just like Microsoft was in the
[TS]
01:20:17
◼
►
eighties and nineties really facebook
[TS]
01:20:19
◼
►
now is this this conglomerate really
[TS]
01:20:21
◼
►
they have tons of properties that are
[TS]
01:20:24
◼
►
major on the internet they have they
[TS]
01:20:26
◼
►
have Facebook itself which is probably
[TS]
01:20:28
◼
►
the biggest web property in the world
[TS]
01:20:31
◼
►
and probably will stay that way for
[TS]
01:20:32
◼
►
quite some time
[TS]
01:20:33
◼
►
anything that gets really big that they
[TS]
01:20:35
◼

think might threaten that they just buy
[TS]
01:20:37
◼

it they have enough money to keep doing
[TS]
01:20:38
◼
►
that indefinitely and they are clearly
[TS]
01:20:42
◼
►
totally okay with like well if you won't
[TS]
01:20:45
◼
►
let us buy you were just gonna rip you
[TS]
01:20:46
◼
►
off and we'll just kill you that way and
[TS]
01:20:49
◼
►
that strategy doesn't always work it
[TS]
01:20:52
◼
►
with you know Microsoft the same thing
[TS]
01:20:54
◼
►
you know it
[TS]
01:20:55
◼
►
Apple has done things that like on a
[TS]
01:20:57
◼

smaller scale sure locking things but
[TS]
01:20:58
◼
►
they don't usually do a huge scale job
[TS]
01:21:00
◼
►
of it stuff like this google does it
[TS]
01:21:02
◼
►
sometimes and that strategy tends to
[TS]
01:21:05
◼
►
work like in general when companies when
[TS]
01:21:08
◼
►
like the big powerful companies that
[TS]
01:21:09
◼
►
already have all the users and all the
[TS]
01:21:12
◼
►
usage and all the attention going to
[TS]
01:21:14
◼
►
them and all this time spent on their
[TS]
01:21:15
◼

services if they clone some smaller
[TS]
01:21:18
◼
►
service there clone often wins and if
[TS]
01:21:22
◼

they can't clone it they can buy it and
[TS]
01:21:24
◼
►
this just kinda it's a bit of a warning
[TS]
01:21:26
◼
►
sign of the power that Facebook has and
[TS]
01:21:30
◼
►
i'm not saying snapchat will be killed
[TS]
01:21:31
◼
►
by this in all likelihood snapchat is
[TS]
01:21:33
◼
►
too big now and they'll probably be
[TS]
01:21:35
◼
►
totally fine because that's really big i
[TS]
01:21:37
◼
►
think they're bigger than Twitter
[TS]
01:21:38
◼
►
they're really big but it does kind of
[TS]
01:21:42
◼
►
scare me a little bit that facebook is
[TS]
01:21:44
◼
►
willing to so so cavalierly just like
[TS]
01:21:47
◼
►
completely rip off the stories feature
[TS]
01:21:50
◼
►
called the same thing do the same things
[TS]
01:21:52
◼
►
use the same gestures like completely
[TS]
01:21:54
◼
►
rip it off it's so closely and so
[TS]
01:21:57
◼
►
shamelessly and they just couldn't
[TS]
01:21:59
◼
►
possibly care less because they are just
[TS]
01:22:00
◼
►
that ruthless and we we live in an age
[TS]
01:22:04
◼
►
now where these these these handful of
[TS]
01:22:06
◼
►
big internet companies have a lot of
[TS]
01:22:09
◼
►
control over us a lot of resources and
[TS]
01:22:13
◼
►
like the centralization of power here is
[TS]
01:22:16
◼
►
just getting more and more severe and
[TS]
01:22:19
◼
►
that kind of worries me for the future
[TS]
01:22:20
◼
►
of like internet things general things
[TS]
01:22:23
◼
►
we do online that that use the internet
[TS]
01:22:25
◼
►
that involve the internet or are the
[TS]
01:22:26
◼
►
internet it is a little concerning thing
[TS]
01:22:30
◼
►
that struck me about using this and
[TS]
01:22:31
◼
►
having new snapchat a little bit is the
[TS]
01:22:35
◼
►
one you often hear and you guys said
[TS]
01:22:37
◼
►
before i go well you know I don't
[TS]
01:22:39
◼
►
understand that put on the kids
[TS]
01:22:40
◼
►
understand it or whatever I did yeah
[TS]
01:22:42
◼
►
there is the demographic thing about
[TS]
01:22:44
◼
►
what age groups use which application
[TS]
01:22:45
◼
►
that's definitely true and more older
[TS]
01:22:47
◼
►
people use Instagram or whatever but
[TS]
01:22:50
◼
►
snapchat and also the extreme stories
[TS]
01:22:53
◼
►
have bad interfaces they have bad user
[TS]
01:22:57
◼
►
interfaces like there is no sensible
[TS]
01:22:59
◼
►
structure to to the interface they don't
[TS]
01:23:03
◼
►
use OS conventions that's for sure
[TS]
01:23:05
◼
►
right so the normal affordances and sort
[TS]
01:23:07
◼
►
of the things you're used to in
[TS]
01:23:08
◼
►
generic uikit you know I don't know
[TS]
01:23:11
◼
►
about another problem just talked about
[TS]
01:23:12
◼
►
in iOS but like it doesn't look like iOS
[TS]
01:23:13
◼
►
that's for sure
[TS]
01:23:14
◼
►
right so it's kind of its own thing and
[TS]
01:23:16
◼
►
within its own thing they don't really
[TS]
01:23:18
◼
►
define any particular spatial metaphor
[TS]
01:23:22
◼
►
or something to hang your hat on where
[TS]
01:23:24
◼
►
you can say oh I see all of swipes to
[TS]
01:23:26
◼
►
this i mean like basically if you you
[TS]
01:23:28
◼
►
know if someone's like oh snap just only
[TS]
01:23:30
◼
►
sensible what you'd basically be doing
[TS]
01:23:32
◼
►
is listing this does that this does that
[TS]
01:23:34
◼
►
this doesn't just like that there now
[TS]
01:23:35
◼
►
and parts that's not a system that is
[TS]
01:23:37
◼
►
just a list of actions and the resulting
[TS]
01:23:39
◼
►
you know what you're looking for a
[TS]
01:23:40
◼
►
system is like because I understand the
[TS]
01:23:42
◼
►
system before you tell me the list of
[TS]
01:23:44
◼
►
all things i can do i can predict oh
[TS]
01:23:46
◼
►
then obviously the way to do X is going
[TS]
01:23:48
◼
►
to be why that's when you know you have
[TS]
01:23:50
◼
►
a system snapchat doesn't have a system
[TS]
01:23:52
◼
►
or not a very good system it's a lot of
[TS]
01:23:53
◼
►
arbitrary crap and they're not using
[TS]
01:23:55
◼
►
native controls not using serve
[TS]
01:23:57
◼
►
unprecedented right sort of setting
[TS]
01:23:59
◼
►
their own standard and why does does
[TS]
01:24:03
◼
►
that mean is that is that why young
[TS]
01:24:05
◼
►
people get snapped and people don't know
[TS]
01:24:07
◼
►
like there are other factors there in
[TS]
01:24:08
◼
►
terms of what's advertised towards into
[TS]
01:24:10
◼
►
the first users were and you know
[TS]
01:24:11
◼
►
critical mass and social networks and
[TS]
01:24:13
◼
►
look where my friends are all things
[TS]
01:24:15
◼
►
that all factors that as well but I
[TS]
01:24:16
◼
►
think there is something to the idea
[TS]
01:24:18
◼
►
that young people will be full to do
[TS]
01:24:22
◼
►
something there's a bunch of their
[TS]
01:24:23
◼
►
friends are doing it they'll just figure
[TS]
01:24:26
◼
►
they have a high tolerance for learning
[TS]
01:24:28
◼
►
RG arbitrary stupid crap i think about
[TS]
01:24:30
◼
►
all the arbitrary stupid crap that I
[TS]
01:24:32
◼
►
learned which basically is the entire
[TS]
01:24:33
◼
►
early years of computing where
[TS]
01:24:35
◼
►
everything was terrible and nothing made
[TS]
01:24:37
◼
►
sense and the mac was the only one had
[TS]
01:24:38
◼
►
kind of an understandable system
[TS]
01:24:40
◼
►
think of all the things that i memorize
[TS]
01:24:41
◼
►
things i learned how to do in video
[TS]
01:24:42
◼
►
games there was no system is arbitrary
[TS]
01:24:44
◼
►
and kids have a lot of time and you're
[TS]
01:24:47
◼
►
good memories and they'll just plug away
[TS]
01:24:49
◼
►
until it becomes second nature to them
[TS]
01:24:51
◼
►
so the kids snapchat makes perfect sense
[TS]
01:24:53
◼
►
because they memorize all the the stupid
[TS]
01:24:55
◼
►
gestures and commands even those
[TS]
01:24:56
◼
►
gestures and commands are almost
[TS]
01:24:58
◼
►
entirely arbitrary countered everything
[TS]
01:25:00
◼
►
that every other UI paradigm the device
[TS]
01:25:02
◼
►
they're holding has taught them and are
[TS]
01:25:04
◼
►
just plain bad right
[TS]
01:25:06
◼
►
they're just bad this is the bad you iso
[TS]
01:25:08
◼
►
Instagram stories didn't use all the
[TS]
01:25:10
◼
►
same things that snapped up but it's a
[TS]
01:25:12
◼
►
similar thing we're Instagram was a very
[TS]
01:25:13
◼
►
sensible straight up the middle iOS
[TS]
01:25:15
◼
►
application with the reasonable UI using
[TS]
01:25:17
◼
►
metaphors and controls and
[TS]
01:25:19
◼
►
the interfaces that we understood so you
[TS]
01:25:21
◼
►
can predict what would happen when you
[TS]
01:25:22
◼
►
did thanks for the most part is always
[TS]
01:25:23
◼
►
the weird edge cases and custom controls
[TS]
01:25:25
◼
►
and stuff but then related stories it's
[TS]
01:25:28
◼
►
in la-la land again where nothing makes
[TS]
01:25:30
◼
►
sense and you can't you have no you have
[TS]
01:25:32
◼
►
no nothing to hang your hat on except
[TS]
01:25:34
◼
►
for like maybe it will behave like
[TS]
01:25:36
◼
►
snapchat which again maybe that's
[TS]
01:25:38
◼
►
establishing a standard maybe you're
[TS]
01:25:39
◼
►
familiar with snapchat that might be a
[TS]
01:25:40
◼
►
good way to go if you're trying to do
[TS]
01:25:41
◼
►
like what marco said like oh we want to
[TS]
01:25:43
◼
►
do a snapchat like then just copy
[TS]
01:25:45
◼
►
snapshots gestures because all the kids
[TS]
01:25:46
◼
►
who snapchat it makes perfect sense of
[TS]
01:25:48
◼
►
them and they go do your thing and
[TS]
01:25:49
◼
►
Swiper drag or tap and it doesn't do
[TS]
01:25:52
◼
►
what they expect from using snapchat
[TS]
01:25:53
◼
►
they think your thing is broken but
[TS]
01:25:55
◼
►
again it's not a good you I just because
[TS]
01:25:57
◼
►
they make it like snapchat for like or
[TS]
01:25:59
◼
►
you know making similar snap try to get
[TS]
01:26:01
◼
►
a little bar they've got on the top with
[TS]
01:26:04
◼
►
a little segment and timers and what
[TS]
01:26:06
◼
►
happens when you swipe in different
[TS]
01:26:07
◼
►
directions and the little rotating
[TS]
01:26:08
◼
►
effect versus the sliding vs up and down
[TS]
01:26:11
◼
►
and tapping and it's just these are bad
[TS]
01:26:14
◼
►
interfaces and so I maintained as the
[TS]
01:26:16
◼
►
old cranky person but not only the
[TS]
01:26:19
◼
►
actual reason like old people don't
[TS]
01:26:21
◼
►
understand snapchat because they made a
[TS]
01:26:23
◼
►
bad UI and because older people have
[TS]
01:26:26
◼
►
less tolerance for figuring out a bad
[TS]
01:26:28
◼
►
you want it doesn't look like the other
[TS]
01:26:30
◼
►
ones doing it and I don't just think
[TS]
01:26:32
◼
►
it's like it i think it's bad on many
[TS]
01:26:34
◼
►
many levels and again this doesn't
[TS]
01:26:35
◼
►
explain why old people don't use that
[TS]
01:26:37
◼
►
there's so many other reasons but this
[TS]
01:26:38
◼
►
is a factor I'm saying this is this is a
[TS]
01:26:40
◼
►
factor in that giant students not the
[TS]
01:26:41
◼
►
biggest factor is not you know even
[TS]
01:26:43
◼
►
maybe a major factor but it's there and
[TS]
01:26:45
◼
►
that annoys me because I feel like
[TS]
01:26:47
◼
►
snapchat could have been successful with
[TS]
01:26:50
◼
►
a clever innovative you i think a lot of
[TS]
01:26:53
◼
►
games do this like you wanted to use no
[TS]
01:26:55
◼
►
native controls totally custom doesn't
[TS]
01:26:57
◼
►
use anything you like it is the same on
[TS]
01:26:59
◼
►
Android and iOS but is delightful and
[TS]
01:27:01
◼
►
understandable and fun to use and
[TS]
01:27:04
◼
►
someone can pick up and learn you again
[TS]
01:27:06
◼
►
at this is my hobby horse but it's
[TS]
01:27:08
◼
►
really true if you make some kind of
[TS]
01:27:10
◼
►
physical world based metaphor like I
[TS]
01:27:13
◼
►
have stacks of cards and we can slide
[TS]
01:27:14
◼
►
them side to side and up and down and
[TS]
01:27:16
◼
►
bring them together and collapse them or
[TS]
01:27:18
◼
►
i can crunch them up or like if you make
[TS]
01:27:20
◼
►
some sort of thing like these aren't
[TS]
01:27:21
◼
►
physical things but in some ways they
[TS]
01:27:24
◼
►
behave and physical things are the is
[TS]
01:27:25
◼
►
like a larger map that you can't see of
[TS]
01:27:27
◼
►
this application once you learn the
[TS]
01:27:29
◼
►
layout of that Matthew know how to move
[TS]
01:27:31
◼
►
around it and you know how to make
[TS]
01:27:32
◼
►
things happen and you know what a button
[TS]
01:27:34
◼
►
looks like and you understand like any
[TS]
01:27:36
◼
►
kind of metaphor like that even if he
[TS]
01:27:38
◼
►
uses totally underrated non-native
[TS]
01:27:40
◼
►
controls can become understandable when
[TS]
01:27:42
◼
►
people start using it
[TS]
01:27:43
◼
►
learn one or two things that all i see
[TS]
01:27:45
◼
►
how this works and they can figure out
[TS]
01:27:47
◼
►
how to do the other things without being
[TS]
01:27:48
◼
►
told explicitly whereas snapchat like
[TS]
01:27:51
◼
►
all mystery meat navigation a bunch of
[TS]
01:27:53
◼
►
inscrutable icons and no real sense of
[TS]
01:27:56
◼
►
where you are what you're doing where
[TS]
01:27:57
◼
►
you going to just memorize how it works
[TS]
01:27:59
◼
►
because you're young and you have a lot
[TS]
01:28:00
◼
►
of time or use the application a lot and
[TS]
01:28:02
◼
►
that becomes second nature you just
[TS]
01:28:03
◼
►
think that's normal
[TS]
01:28:04
◼
►
so if you ask any kid snapchat
[TS]
01:28:06
◼
►
easy-to-use they like everyone knows how
[TS]
01:28:07
◼
►
to use snapchats like i like i know how
[TS]
01:28:09
◼
►
to write my name and I put one foot in
[TS]
01:28:10
◼
►
front of the other walk and you snapped
[TS]
01:28:12
◼
►
as the most intuitive interface on my
[TS]
01:28:13
◼
►
entire phone
[TS]
01:28:14
◼
►
no just use it a lot that's what that
[TS]
01:28:16
◼
►
means that doesn't mean it's a good UI
[TS]
01:28:17
◼
►
and the reason they like using it is
[TS]
01:28:20
◼
►
because it makes people like us that
[TS]
01:28:22
◼
►
angry not but that's not why where I'm
[TS]
01:28:24
◼
►
about like I'm just saying it's a bad
[TS]
01:28:25
◼
►
you I you angry about it because it's
[TS]
01:28:27
◼
►
like you're making silly videos of
[TS]
01:28:28
◼
►
yourself and send your friends and like
[TS]
01:28:29
◼
►
all these kids these days shouldn't be
[TS]
01:28:31
◼
►
taking video I don't care about that
[TS]
01:28:32
◼
►
whatever take videos you live in the
[TS]
01:28:34
◼
►
same thing when we take videos and our
[TS]
01:28:35
◼
►
things and send our friends that's fine
[TS]
01:28:37
◼
►
like whatever that I have no I have no
[TS]
01:28:39
◼
►
anger towards people use snapchat I
[TS]
01:28:41
◼
►
hangers the developers of snapchat for
[TS]
01:28:43
◼
►
making a bad you I that users thumbs-up
[TS]
01:28:48
◼

snapchat developers thumbs down
