00:07:41 ◼ ► Don't talk about future products blah blah blah like that my request has been heard thus far I don't think anything has [TS]

00:08:10 ◼ ► We know that your requests have been heard by people at Apple for years about their file system. [TS]
00:08:16 ◼ ► I think phonology slightly more motivated than Apple to because this is a common feature of NASA like they are a lot of [TS]
00:08:26 ◼ ► or some other checks among file system release have it as an option. Like it's a good point right. [TS]
00:08:35 ◼ ► and you know I think they're not adding this probably just a statement on the state of like Linux you have a support [TS]
00:08:41 ◼ ► or you know just how many ties their current software stack as with the their current file system and everything [TS]
00:08:47 ◼ ► but anyway. It could happen. All right so do we want to cover a few more things about photos. The app on no S ten. [TS]
00:08:57 ◼ ► More questions about aren't we concerned he wants to know what we're concerned about are we concerned about the privacy [TS]
00:09:12 ◼ ► or Whatever from viewing photos about their authorization out of there on the cloud. [TS]
00:09:21 ◼ ► I don't I have don't know what the situation is I assume the N.S.A. Can see all of my pictures. I think is a safe bet. [TS]
00:09:29 ◼ ► I assume that Apple is making a reasonable effort to keep them secure like they do with all their stuff [TS]
00:09:34 ◼ ► but in the end you are uploading all of your pictures to a server controlled by a corporation that you have no control [TS]
00:09:49 ◼ ► Don't put them into a cloud photo thinking service. Period. Yeah. That's basically my answer is. [TS]
00:09:56 ◼ ► I don't have any pictures that I would be that would be a huge problem. If somebody else saw them. [TS]
00:10:03 ◼ ► But if you did like the solution is like. There's nothing you can do the solutions do not applaud them to anybody. [TS]
00:10:11 ◼ ► and even that like who knows they could be breaking into your computer and getting they were never [TS]
00:10:14 ◼ ► but there is no I don't think there's any sort of technological guarantee that at this point that a company was well [TS]
00:10:22 ◼ ► meaning as they might be could give they were making I think oh I previously didn't want to upload these pictures on my [TS]
00:10:29 ◼ ► But now that I've heard this promise from this company. I will totally do it. It's just I've you know. [TS]
00:10:34 ◼ ► I won't I just shouldn't do it. There's nothing you know as. It's not their fault they could be a hundred percent. [TS]
00:10:42 ◼ ► But I think history has shown that there are so many things between their promise and you. Namely the Internet that. [TS]
00:10:48 ◼ ► That need one of those parties has control over that the N.S.A. Perhaps does. So just yet just on a bullet Yep agreed. [TS]
00:11:02 ◼ ► That's from Hamp a three questions in a row don't you care about aren't you worried about. Aren't you concerned about. [TS]
00:11:08 ◼ ► Perhaps we are this is what you don't you care about your edits. Like so we talked about last time. [TS]
00:11:18 ◼ ► or whatever in a big folder her he's a worse case scenario you could extract all those files from this crazy bundle [TS]
00:11:25 ◼ ► And just have a bunch of pigs in folders like that by putting your photos into this system whether be i Photo the new [TS]
00:11:34 ◼ ► You're not really losing is not because it's very good about preserving the originals [TS]
00:11:43 ◼ ► But what about your added to that point what if you spent a long time editing your photos adjusting everything [TS]
00:11:47 ◼ ► or all those that had been adjustments are not in the photos that the whole point is it doesn't write them back to the [TS]
00:11:54 ◼ ► But you know if you're if you're saying that you can just pull get rid of a library player for that you're losing all [TS]
00:12:00 ◼ ► your at it. My answer to this is that I rarely edit my photos. Because I have no idea had photos. [TS]
00:12:05 ◼ ► So that's a problem like crop photos. Occasionally I will move some sliders a tiny little bit. [TS]
00:12:12 ◼ ► But in the most part I feel like I'm making the photos worse and not better and. I just don't I just don't edit them. [TS]
00:12:21 ◼ ► I'm not sure what the solution is because I like the idea of never altering the originals Obviously if there was like [TS]
00:12:29 ◼ ► But I don't know how you would save the edits in a way that is not specific to any one application that applies the [TS]
00:12:36 ◼ ► edits. Yeah I mean that's that's kind of the problem like. You know Adobe and their apps they have as part of the D.M.G. [TS]
00:12:47 ◼ ► And so that's cool with that then you can bet to see any Adobe program. And load up. Those edits. [TS]
00:12:54 ◼ ► What I always wanted for so long which is give me one file that has everything in it that I can move around in the file [TS]
00:12:59 ◼ ► system and operate on as I need to the Apple ecosystem as far as you know has never had that [TS]
00:13:09 ◼ ► Right now they just moved from my photo in Aperture. To New Photos app. I Photo aperture and the New Photos app. [TS]
00:13:19 ◼ ► That probably many of these different algorithms from each other so you couldn't even say like. [TS]
00:13:24 ◼ ► You know reduce highlights by point two you know if you say that in the file then the next version the program might [TS]
00:13:30 ◼ ► interpret that differently. Or a different program. Ten years from now will interpret that differently. [TS]
00:13:35 ◼ ► And it might not look the way you want so I think the only really sane long term solution here is to either not care [TS]
00:13:46 ◼ ► When you're going to move platforms are going to you're going to move. Editors to like write them all out right. [TS]
00:13:55 ◼ ► And just maintain separate copies that have the edits Big Dan if that's really important to you. [TS]
00:13:59 ◼ ► It is a very good question. The problem is I don't think. I don't think there's a good way to solve it. [TS]
00:14:07 ◼ ► and be cross-platform uncross app for me it's very similar to what John said just a little bit step further I do know [TS]
00:14:19 ◼ ► But I don't edit most of the photos I take or if I do it's like a really basic crop [TS]
00:14:25 ◼ ► but not you know not heavy edits that would that are you know that important. As I as time goes on. [TS]
00:14:34 ◼ ► So if I was going to go back and pull up an old photo would probably want to redo my edits to it with the tools [TS]
00:14:45 ◼ ► You know when I first did the edit five years ago when I didn't know about white balance. You know stuff like that. [TS]
00:14:52 ◼ ► So this is it is a very valid question to ask Of what do you do with your editor moves isn't that is a very valid [TS]
00:15:00 ◼ ► But it sounds like none of the three of us are the kind of people who are that much about that [TS]
00:15:07 ◼ ► Well you know it's burn your editor copies to like a new copy like bring them to J. [TS]
00:15:14 ◼ ► but I think that's the only solution I wouldn't say that's a good solution but it like to put the programs offer [TS]
00:15:19 ◼ ► and I don't even know if i Phone or even offer that as an option. You could duplicate I don't know if it's. [TS]
00:15:26 ◼ ► but I think what it did was a duplicate the original in the uterus have the same thing you just have a second fall for [TS]
00:15:31 ◼ ► you to do a different set of and it's but it's still trying to keep them separate. Yeah I don't know I. [TS]
00:15:36 ◼ ► This is definitely like an advanced user feature that most people will not need or use or ever care about. [TS]
00:15:46 ◼ ► And if you really are very concerned about that kind of stuff you probably are going to be. [TS]
00:15:58 ◼ ► and so she doesn't use any of these programs she uses Adobe Bridge and manages things in the file system. [TS]
00:16:04 ◼ ► And she is very very happy with that she has no desire to go into one of these men. [TS]
00:16:10 ◼ ► Sinking library kind of program she said she tried apertures she tried Lightroom she hated them. [TS]
00:16:15 ◼ ► She's she's the kind of person who like her edits. Are so much work. And so important. [TS]
00:16:20 ◼ ► And she's so good at that like she wouldn't be able to to date to do the kind of move where shooter Sparrow Well that [TS]
00:16:26 ◼ ► he's ever done but she does things manually so. She has all her raw files and then when she does heavy edits.. [TS]
00:16:33 ◼ ► She saves them out of shape X. And so like. It wouldn't even be a problem for her in her system so anyway. [TS]
00:16:39 ◼ ► I think the answer is if you're pro enough. Or if you're really into it or not to have a lot of vets. [TS]
00:16:44 ◼ ► You probably need to come up with your own long term solution to this problem. We also got some feedback from Vincent. [TS]

00:24:59 ◼ ► I'd be communication which was really cool. I was very impressed with how great that Apple is overall. [TS]
00:25:13 ◼ ► The way I think about glide is I call it the Squarespace equivalent for apple tree a ship. [TS]
00:25:19 ◼ ► It covers a lot of very common needs. And very common tasks for app building with way less time and money. [TS]
00:25:31 ◼ ► The source files are literally just like a bunch of folders on Dropbox with text or images or media files on them. [TS]
00:25:46 ◼ ► but you don't have to what's a very big deal for people who want to focus on the content of their app like if you're [TS]
00:25:51 ◼ ► making a magazine like Jim. And you know not have to worry about the code behind it. [TS]
00:25:58 ◼ ► and glide is a huge deal for after Veltman consultants as well to me this is a no brainer if you're a consultant the [TS]
00:26:05 ◼ ► You know this is not going to go away has going to kill your job but is a massive number of projects. [TS]
00:26:09 ◼ ► That shouldn't be made from scratch or can't afford to be. So if you're a consultant. [TS]
00:26:13 ◼ ► Using glide you could offer clients fast small budget app creation. Far more efficiently impressively than before. [TS]
00:26:20 ◼ ► So that all this is what's driving glides creators. To bring this to Kickstarter and release it to the public. [TS]
00:26:33 ◼ ► And so that's why they want to kick started to make this happen basically be like a big capital reason pewters had to [TS]
00:26:41 ◼ ► So it was only a few more days left to support or pre-order go out on Kickstarter. [TS]
00:26:48 ◼ ► If you're a consultant This is a pretty big competitive advantage to have to like this. So I recommend checking it out. [TS]
00:26:59 ◼ ► Thank you very much to glide for sponsoring our show. Yeah. We all are friends with the people that make why. [TS]
00:27:06 ◼ ► And so they're also doing the nice people in the world to God so nice. But even if we weren't French toast. [TS]
00:27:13 ◼ ► People genuinely This stuff is amazing and. Chris Harris who is. I think C.E.O. C.T.O. C.E.O. Of glide. [TS]
00:27:23 ◼ ► He did a demo with me a long time ago now the probably a year plus ago. Of how glide works and this was via Face Time. [TS]
00:27:35 ◼ ► Just watching things happen in Dropbox and then in the app changing moments there after it was mind blowing so. [TS]
00:27:45 ◼ ► And if this is at all interesting to you I highly suggest checking it out it is very very cool. [TS]
00:27:51 ◼ ► And they even like they think of so many little details I mean the things I've seen them do even like you have a drop [TS]
00:27:59 ◼ ► They host them on their own easy to stuff on Amazon Web Services because they you know they they want to make sure that [TS]
00:28:08 ◼ ► So they actually copied over their stuff after they read it after OP Oxo you like even thought of that. [TS]
00:28:13 ◼ ► So these are great people I'm pretty sure also still owe Chris a beer from Will. But these are great people and. [TS]
00:28:19 ◼ ► Yes here's a check of blood and. Hurry up because you're in on time. All right so we have a very important but. [TS]
00:28:25 ◼ ► But fairly serious topic. We have some real time follow up. And that is that Evan Hindraf in the chat. Has drawn. You. [TS]
00:28:39 ◼ ► You are you writing hops trying to stave off the reckons kind of punted on the face there though he just trying to draw [TS]
00:28:50 ◼ ► Oh I didn't even notice that that's a good call it got the hose the hose the pathetic O's the little puddle of water [TS]
00:28:57 ◼ ► because they're actually running away. Yeah. The Apple what's given the time. And strengths. Yeah. I'm impressed. [TS]
00:29:04 ◼ ► Did a very impressed. All right so I was being slightly snarky about the seriousness of that. [TS]
00:29:13 ◼ ► and we wanted to make sure we discussed in the main part of the show this. This week. [TS]
00:29:17 ◼ ► And this all started with a tweet from John so John you want to kick us off or this will last month. Shanda last month. [TS]
00:29:23 ◼ ► Remember what motivated us but you know. Or just. No time like the president just tweeted and asked this question. [TS]
00:29:37 ◼ ► Kind of wordy to go women and girls but I was trying to be inclusive in this thing but I was anyway. [TS]
00:29:48 ◼ ► and you can look at all the replies there are a lot of replies A lot of good replies. [TS]
00:29:52 ◼ ► I plan to write a blog post about this. I tried to write a post about this. I had a lot of difficulty. [TS]
00:30:03 ◼ ► and kind of boring so I figure who can make an attempt to talk about it on the show. [TS]
00:30:07 ◼ ► Be nice to have a blog post that people can reference maybe I'll still try to make one. [TS]
00:30:12 ◼ ► But anyway what I was going to do in the blog post was explain what I felt like I couldn't explain. On Twitter. [TS]
00:30:17 ◼ ► Which is why if you look at the giant thread you don't see a lot of replies for me to be ill Mostly I was just asked a [TS]
00:30:22 ◼ ► question and I was getting input writes I was reading all the responses but not really. Replying to all of them. [TS]
00:30:29 ◼ ► Like I asked a question and people give their opinions and I listen to them right. But it doesn't. [TS]
00:30:36 ◼ ► I think require some explanation a lot of people had legitimate questions about it [TS]
00:30:39 ◼ ► and that's why I was trying to address my blog cause I think I'll probably start with those. [TS]
00:30:44 ◼ ► The first thing or like the the sort of the premises or the assumptions of all this. [TS]
00:30:49 ◼ ► My the premise of the question is that I think. Not a lot of women listen to a Tea Party. [TS]
00:30:57 ◼ ► And many people as I How do you know that you take surveys a realist. Now we don't. You're basing it on T. Shirt sales. [TS]
00:31:06 ◼ ► and sometimes they don't even know what the breakdowns are green based on the names of people in who send feedback. [TS]
00:31:22 ◼ ► but the information we have is a middling imperfect What if ninety nine point nine percent of people listen are women. [TS]
00:31:26 ◼ ► And they never write. Because women never like to write into the show. For some reason. Right. [TS]
00:31:41 ◼ ► I would put money on the fact that mostly men when they debate. Certainly the majority props the vast majority. [TS]
00:31:48 ◼ ► I don't know if you two agree with that do you think you get that feeling absolutely. It's like what you said like the. [TS]
00:32:01 ◼ ► Right so that's that's what we're starting from her wrong about that in this whole thing is is pointless [TS]
00:32:05 ◼ ► and were barking up the wrong Korea but I have money on it that is just that's majority police in the Sharman. [TS]
00:32:11 ◼ ► My second assumption is that of all the potential people in the world who might enjoy the show. [TS]
00:32:16 ◼ ► If you say here that just put all those people on the board Those are all the people who potentially might enjoy the [TS]
00:32:21 ◼ ► show. What percentage of the men who might enjoy the show. Are currently listening to it. [TS]
00:32:29 ◼ ► and do it I think we have a larger proportion of the men who might enjoy the show listening to it than we do the women. [TS]
00:32:36 ◼ ► but this blog post like Suffice it to say that we want people to listen to the show I do you need to say that [TS]
00:32:44 ◼ ► I personally want people to listen to the show because it's gratifying when lots of people. [TS]
00:32:48 ◼ ► I don't know if I need to explain. As to be evil but it's one of the primary like listeners equals good right. [TS]
00:32:54 ◼ ► If you want to grow the audience. You feel like there is an untapped market. A women who you know. Say say we're doing. [TS]
00:33:01 ◼ ► Say we're getting like one percent of the men who might enjoy the show or listening to it right. [TS]
00:33:06 ◼ ► I think like point zero zero zero one percent of the women who might enjoy the show are listening to it so that seems [TS]
00:33:11 ◼ ► like where we should go like this so we can get one percent of the men and one for some of them as a big boost [TS]
00:33:15 ◼ ► but maybe you know one percent of the men. One percent of any group is our cap you know what I mean. [TS]
00:33:25 ◼ ► There are other reasons to like you know all the other reasons you hear people talk about what people don't talk about [TS]
00:33:29 ◼ ► as I was you know why does diversity matter why do you care how many men or women in the show like. [TS]
00:33:42 ◼ ► If we if women are not listening to the show and much greater proportions than men. [TS]
00:33:46 ◼ ► Even though the woman who we think would like the show. That's that's bad we're not way. That is an untapped market. [TS]
00:33:57 ◼ ► Ignoring everything else which are very important points about like we should be encouraging women to technology in it [TS]
00:34:07 ◼ ► or whatever just purely by the numbers are they getting people to anybody and say look you know you're not. [TS]
00:34:13 ◼ ► There's an audience out there that we feel like is not listening to the show in much larger proportions another [TS]
00:34:21 ◼ ► Right so that's that's the premise of this question that's why ask and. Why did I ask. [TS]
00:34:26 ◼ ► The women and girls who do listen to a D.P. Well. I can't just ask somebody who doesn't listen to a D.P. [TS]
00:34:31 ◼ ► Because they don't know what the show is about and the people who do were once women who didn't [TS]
00:34:35 ◼ ► and basically they have the experience of say. I was once a woman who didn't listen to a G.P. [TS]
00:34:45 ◼ ► That might be keeping women away from it or making it seem like the show is not welcoming to them. [TS]
00:34:50 ◼ ► And is not something they might be interested in and so on and so for or I did listen. And now I don't and here's why. [TS]
00:35:00 ◼ ► Basically I don't have any way to communicate with the women who don't follow me on Twitter [TS]
00:35:06 ◼ ► but I specifically was addressing them because I wasn't particularly interested in hearing all the things that men. [TS]
00:35:12 ◼ ► thought we could do to get more women to listen to a D.P. Even though they may be entirely right. [TS]
00:35:17 ◼ ► I feel like I have the male perspective we three of us collectively have the Mel perspective of well here I was looking [TS]
00:35:25 ◼ ► So that that is a very long winded set up for for this question you guys want to add a things that to the I didn't [TS]
00:35:35 ◼ ► Of Twitter account I just threw the question out there I don't know how you guys felt about her bits thing that you're [TS]
00:35:39 ◼ ► thinking about or whether you agree this is a good thing to ask or have anything to add to my premises here. [TS]
00:35:48 ◼ ► when I both pretty much immediately retreated it and I think one of us retreated from the show account. [TS]
00:35:52 ◼ ► Just as quickly. So I'm pretty sure I speak for Marco in saying that we are completely behind this line of thought and. [TS]
00:36:00 ◼ ► And I'm very curious to hear what it is we can do about about the. The women that listener don't listen I should say. [TS]
00:36:08 ◼ ► And we did definitely had some interesting feedback which I suspect we're about to go into yet. [TS]
00:36:12 ◼ ► So before we talk about all the different you know how we feel about the message go through a lot of responses [TS]
00:36:19 ◼ ► and us go through so them categorically frequent suggestions this is not really authored by frequency [TS]
00:36:24 ◼ ► but I guess I probably wrote them down in the order they started coming and have women guests on the show. [TS]
00:36:32 ◼ ► Do a host swap with other woman tech podcasts were you know someone from a woman from another tech pockets of here one [TS]
00:36:40 ◼ ► Talk about women in tech topics which are kind of doing now and we have kind of done in the past. [TS]
00:36:58 ◼ ► This is it I'm interesting suggestion that I would not of would not have guessed came someone said. [TS]
00:37:03 ◼ ► You're not going to get women to listen to the show unless you ask women to listen to the show which sounds stupid [TS]
00:37:09 ◼ ► Like you have to ask for it you have to say hey are you with an interest in technology we have a PA guess you might [TS]
00:37:18 ◼ ► Lots of mentions of like word of mouth as in like how they came to know the show like I heard from a friend who heard [TS]
00:37:22 ◼ ► from a friend. Talk about women who are in technology. Talk about things they're doing. [TS]
00:37:33 ◼ ► You know Conference talks whatever the things that women are actually doing in tech talk about them the same way we [TS]
00:37:38 ◼ ► talk about everything else write their blog link to them on Twitter blog memory tweet them follow them [TS]
00:37:45 ◼ ► Things that are folks I'm like app camp for girls which I think they take an ass out of reach we didn't post about many [TS]
00:37:51 ◼ ► times but other similar types of things that are trying to get more women into technology. See what else we have here. [TS]
00:38:04 ◼ ► From the outside looks like it's just a bunch of dudes talking about tech which I'm going to say that pretty much as [TS]
00:38:12 ◼ ► but it's really much more I think they mean the part where we talk about Marco swatting raccoons in his backyard [TS]
00:38:17 ◼ ► but the idea is that you know the optics from the outside of the show looks like it's a boring show by tech [TS]
00:38:22 ◼ ► but we do kind of cover. Slightly broader topics maybe. I don't know that you know that. [TS]
00:38:28 ◼ ► Getting that image out there getting that message out there could make the show. More appealing. [TS]
00:38:34 ◼ ► And I think that's it for the categories of if I was you remember any other particular large categories that you saw. [TS]
00:38:42 ◼ ► Going by. I think you got I mean I think the. The biggest one by far is female host slash guest. [TS]
00:38:49 ◼ ► And then I think the second biggest was probably the advertiser thing. Yeah. Policy gesture and. [TS]
00:38:56 ◼ ► Another reason I didn't respond to them on Twitter was because like. This is this is a trap. [TS]
00:39:03 ◼ ► You know it has many names like male answer syndrome. But there are many different names like. [TS]
00:39:08 ◼ ► It's not an invitation to debate all these thing. Like if you ask a question like this in Twitter. [TS]
00:39:13 ◼ ► Your instinct and minds think that many instincts of many people on Twitter not just men [TS]
00:39:17 ◼ ► but everybody who's got yours is to is to answer them to say. I think you should do X. [TS]
00:39:23 ◼ ► and Then to answer by saying well we can't do X. Because of this or. We don't want to do X. or We shouldn't do X. [TS]
00:39:29 ◼ ► or I disagree that X. Would help. Like. And that believe me that instinct is strong. [TS]
00:39:39 ◼ ► Every one of these responses is like well I have a reason why you know. You know you get defensive right. [TS]
00:39:43 ◼ ► And so I thought that instinct. I think pretty successfully. And did NOT about everything. [TS]
00:39:49 ◼ ► You know because basically what it comes down to I think every single one of these responses is right for the person [TS]
00:40:08 ◼ ► We're not going to do all these things and in particular I don't want to focus on the idea of having women host [TS]
00:40:17 ◼ ► I think that her all the people who said we should have women holistic do it make it would get more of them interest on [TS]
00:40:25 ◼ ► You're not getting more people to listen to your show you're making a new show. That is more appealing to women. [TS]
00:40:39 ◼ ► Like there should be fifty more of those because this is an undershirt audience right there are as many what the [TS]
00:40:44 ◼ ► million shows of the bunch of guys talking about tech. But we are one of those shows. [TS]
00:40:52 ◼ ► I recognize that we are sacrificing some audience by doing that so the people who made the suggestion are not wrong [TS]
00:41:04 ◼ ► It is a great suggestion that is a big problem that we have three guys here but we have never had guest hosts. [TS]
00:41:16 ◼ ► It is like it is not a guest show we usually had times like my where my wife Tiffany popped in during the after show to [TS]
00:41:28 ◼ ► But that's you know and that's even at home like in the after show and it's like. It's like a fun. [TS]
00:41:32 ◼ ► Occasional thing it's not like a regular feature the show that the show is not regularly having different people in [TS]
00:41:37 ◼ ► here. If it were and like. Like I know John Gruber for the talk show got criticized initially. [TS]
00:41:44 ◼ ► I don't know maybe a year ago when people started becoming a lot more aware of this issue. [TS]
00:41:54 ◼ ► Since then I think he took that to heart and. If you look at the list of hosts. Since you know since about a year ago. [TS]
00:42:14 ◼ ► or rotating guests to to really obey that really pay attention to their gender breakdown and their. [TS]
00:42:20 ◼ ► You know breakdown and all sorts of diversity categories honestly but. For our show I think we can safely say you know. [TS]
00:42:32 ◼ ► but our show is always just the three of us it isn't like we're having different men every week. [TS]
00:42:38 ◼ ► And that's two things about that I think that feedback is kind of disheartening because it shows how underserved this [TS]
00:42:43 ◼ ► market is that they're as they're asking the way they feel like they can get a show that appeals to them better than [TS]
00:42:49 ◼ ► asking for changes in and existing shows or. It's just like. It's like all the female gamers out there begging for. [TS]
00:42:56 ◼ ► You know female. Avatars and protagonists in games they just want to see themselves represented. [TS]
00:43:05 ◼ ► And so they have to take the things they do like that are currently not catering to the needs I could you change a [TS]
00:43:10 ◼ ► thing you're doing to cater to my needs because I'm so massively under-served that I can't go elsewhere for something [TS]
00:43:14 ◼ ► better than this I feel like there should be more podcasts. With three ladies talking about tech. [TS]
00:43:23 ◼ ► They are right that this would make our show more appealing but I just feel like it would be a different show. [TS]
00:43:28 ◼ ► And we're not doing that show but more people should wear and that's also you know like like. [TS]
00:43:35 ◼ ► Only if there's another woman on the show that's not true. Now if we did but we did get the feedback a lot like some. [TS]
00:43:43 ◼ ► None of these single women represent all of them and they're just wasting their own opinions [TS]
00:43:46 ◼ ► but that's why I asked you if you want to hear other people's opinion that we did get a lot of people who said the show [TS]
00:43:51 ◼ ► be more appealing if there's a woman guess. We got fewer people who said I like the lamp exactly way it is. [TS]
00:43:55 ◼ ► There are other things that you can do to make it more appealing but I agree the people who ask for that are correct. [TS]
00:44:00 ◼ ► I just feel like it's not a thing we're going to do which is disappointing for us and disappointing for them [TS]
00:44:04 ◼ ► but that's that's how the Allen comes out and the second thing on this is you talk about like you mention different. [TS]
00:44:11 ◼ ► Diversity in different aspects that's another question that a try to get in my blog post was very difficult to explain [TS]
00:44:22 ◼ ► You know different sexual orientations or geographies or language or any other thing like that. [TS]
00:44:28 ◼ ► I think we're terrible in all those categories in terms of in terms of how would our break down are [TS]
00:44:32 ◼ ► and turns under market but here's the thing. Women are in a minority. Marry the planet. So again. [TS]
00:44:44 ◼ ► Our massive under-representation that we feel it is just based on the data that we have is not for a minority group [TS]
00:44:52 ◼ ► Address the biggest problem first I thought this is our biggest problem I feel like all the problems are also there. [TS]
00:44:58 ◼ ► But this is the. This is the biggest bang for your buck this is the worst thing going on here. [TS]
00:45:06 ◼ ► Definitely aware of what are we doing to eliminate although there are groups that are that are minorities that are [TS]
00:45:10 ◼ ► marginalized that we should be trying not to do anything that excludes them. Android users. Yeah. [TS]
00:45:26 ◼ ► The fact the very fact that all those things come up in the same conversation is women it's like women are not a [TS]
00:45:30 ◼ ► minority. I struggle with I think there more than half the planet by like a tiny little bit. But anyway. [TS]
00:45:36 ◼ ► There are minority in tech and that's the problem. We're sort of trying to address or. So what do we do about sponsors. [TS]
00:45:42 ◼ ► Because one of the pieces of feedback that I saw most often. Other then you should have a. [TS]
00:45:48 ◼ ► You have a woman host or that women guess. The next bit of feedback that I think was the next most popular was well. [TS]
00:45:57 ◼ ► You should really try to stay away from advertisers that are clearly just for men. And I don't mean the hair coloring. [TS]
00:46:04 ◼ ► I mean. Designed for man. I have used. Not proud of it. Don't use it anymore. But I did use it. [TS]
00:46:14 ◼ ► and work we're getting deep into accidental analog right now. My curly soon be self-centered us but it's right. [TS]
00:46:21 ◼ ► But yeah we did get a lot of feedback of well you should really have sponsors that are that are more is unisex Unisex [TS]
00:46:28 ◼ ► is either genders that right I always get it back when I would say gender neutral. [TS]
00:46:33 ◼ ► Gender neutral advertisers and we were the three of us were talking about this very briefly the i Message. [TS]
00:46:43 ◼ ► and maybe there's others who were not thinking of the only sponsor that I think we've run released recently that is [TS]
00:46:55 ◼ ► And in actuality that could very well be used for for women for the parts of their bodies that they shave but. [TS]
00:47:08 ◼ ► Maybe it's as simple as just trying to be more inclusive on the ad reads which is another thing that the three of us [TS]
00:47:19 ◼ ► And I think Mark are you especially had some thoughts on this if you want to kind of take the mike. Yeah I mean. So. [TS]
00:47:24 ◼ ► So I think this is a valid point. You know the idea that. You know again like it's not like women will run away. [TS]
00:47:35 ◼ ► But certainly contributes to an overall feeling of maybe this isn't maybe unwelcome this. Or like not fitting in or. [TS]
00:47:47 ◼ ► I've heard all those things from people who said of this kind of feedback and I get that I understand that. [TS]
00:47:53 ◼ ► The reality is we have very few sponsors that are dinner specific and so it wouldn't be a huge deal. [TS]
00:48:05 ◼ ► but the only recurring sponsor that we've had that I can think of off the my head are Harry's and need. [TS]
00:48:10 ◼ ► You know need even now has for most like they have other businesses that are not just for men. [TS]
00:48:21 ◼ ► Harry's like I did some research to see like you know having a problem is us with Harry's. [TS]
00:48:26 ◼ ► And yet there's no question it's aimed at men. But you know they sell razors that are like male styled and. [TS]
00:48:33 ◼ ► You know definitely aimed at men but women have used them and have blogged about using them [TS]
00:48:38 ◼ ► and you know they work on women there's you know there's nothing about a razor that makes it just for a man [TS]
00:48:43 ◼ ► and women can use them too so you know there's a there's marketing choices or stylistic choices there's you know. [TS]
00:48:49 ◼ ► Language choices anyway. But if it came down to. You know us telling Harry is. You know look. [TS]
00:48:56 ◼ ► We you know we look to America's new but we want to keep everything gender neutral now so you know call us back [TS]
00:49:02 ◼ ► when you have. You know a women's option or something or when you. When it's no longer so. Males have AK. [TS]
00:49:11 ◼ ► This is an easy one to solve this does not require changing the show. This requires changing. [TS]
00:49:16 ◼ ► Like to sponsors to basically say. You know sorry we're going to have this new policy now. [TS]
00:49:21 ◼ ► You know we have to work with you in the future. You know that we can work this out. [TS]
00:49:25 ◼ ► So I think that's an easy easy low hanging fruit to change that. I don't care at all. [TS]
00:49:30 ◼ ► I don't think the language of the sponsor reads is itself a major part of the problem. [TS]
00:49:35 ◼ ► I've actually edited the reads a couple weeks ago we did a spot for Jack Threads which was very male focused [TS]
00:49:42 ◼ ► and I had very heavily edited the read and to remove. You know things that were like. Obviously you know. [TS]
00:49:48 ◼ ► Men in a style that I thought was not appropriate for like a gender neutral show. So I edited the script. [TS]
00:49:55 ◼ ► No big deal i do i had every script I get to do be more in our style or to be easier to read [TS]
00:49:59 ◼ ► or to say things that I think should be said and delete things I think shouldn't be said. [TS]
00:50:08 ◼ ► The product of the problem what's being advertised. Is the problem here if you can make this argument. [TS]
00:50:20 ◼ ► You know what does that suggest to the women in our audience who are listening. And so yeah. [TS]
00:50:25 ◼ ► My argument is my idea was why don't we just drop these handful of sponsors the do this you know. It would. [TS]
00:50:36 ◼ ► You know it's inconvenient for them if they are counting on you but I'd be perfectly fine to do this now [TS]
00:50:43 ◼ ► I am I disagreed because I don't think the problem is necessarily that the line of products that are am just a man [TS]
00:50:51 ◼ ► First of all the reality is the most are audience as men so this is you know advertisers want to have ads targeted at [TS]
00:50:58 ◼ ► but I thought the problem was basically having to do with the reeds because it's OK to have a product. [TS]
00:51:10 ◼ ► Just people in a particular state just people who live a lot of our stuff is just people in the US. [TS]
00:51:15 ◼ ► For example because a lot of people dogs companies as we hear. Don't ship overseas right so we hear about that too. [TS]
00:51:25 ◼ ► The problem actually is with how the reads can be done because. Just because you have a product for men. [TS]
00:51:35 ◼ ► when you mean of course as with argument to cry from an example some gave me on Twitter as. [TS]
00:51:39 ◼ ► What if you were selling some sort of you know whether it be shaving or anything else product. [TS]
00:51:44 ◼ ► It was just for women a leg shaving razor with the handles are just for shaving woman's legs or something like what. [TS]
00:51:50 ◼ ► Whatever it is or like some kind of product that only or mostly women use if we did that [TS]
00:52:01 ◼ ► Inclination but I imagine would be to pitch it as in like oh it's like buy this for your wife or girlfriend [TS]
00:52:07 ◼ ► or whatever as an as and you know assuming that our audience is mostly men which again we rethink it is [TS]
00:52:12 ◼ ► and just saying well you know of course only men listen to this do Deck pocket so let me. [TS]
00:52:25 ◼ ► When you do an ad read for a woman's product. You should pitch it. As if the person listening. [TS]
00:52:31 ◼ ► Might be a man or woman and not saying the woman is going to use themselves. By this for the man in your life. [TS]
00:52:37 ◼ ► but like if it's totally focused man's product like again you assume all our listeners are hundred percent women how [TS]
00:52:45 ◼ ► Be different if it would be different than probably the ad read is as making people feel excluded because we're all [TS]
00:52:51 ◼ ► used to living in a world where there are certain products and just that men are just it went right. [TS]
00:52:59 ◼ ► That are specifically and men or at women for whatever reason if you want to say that these products are culturally. [TS]
00:53:06 ◼ ► None of us feel like we get offended by that unless we listen there are watch the show [TS]
00:53:10 ◼ ► and every single ad is like you should buy this for yourself and it's a woman focused product I'm like [TS]
00:53:15 ◼ ► but I'm not a woman why do you keep saying you it's not me like you never you never pitched this product to me as if [TS]
00:53:22 ◼ ► It's always you buy this for yourself it makes you feel like geez maybe I should be watching this program because all [TS]
00:53:29 ◼ ► Are telling me that I should buy it for myself don't they know I'm not a woman seems like maybe this is not the place [TS]
00:53:37 ◼ ► Especially of the not an overwhelming majority of like of all of our ads are men only products that's a big problem [TS]
00:53:47 ◼ ► Have to be done in a way that's not like hey you should buy the stuff yourself because that's exclusive. [TS]
00:53:56 ◼ ► I think the way the edit pitches excluding people. And I think the fact that our audience mostly men. [TS]
00:54:02 ◼ ► You know that there is the root problem here in the symptom is the fact that advertisers who advertise things for only [TS]
00:54:17 ◼ ► I think most of our listeners the men are probably right and that's the root problem of trying to solve. [TS]
00:54:20 ◼ ► I'm not entirely sure getting rid of that ad would change the gender disparity I think you just need to be presented [TS]
00:54:27 ◼ ► We should read just like I said due to Harry Reid as if one hundred percent of our listeners are women [TS]
00:54:33 ◼ ► and see if anyone notices. Like see people get confusing go. I didn't understand that had it wasn't for men's products. [TS]
00:54:40 ◼ ► Why are you out. Were tossing it to women it was all would assume hundred percent of the people isn't a short women. [TS]
00:54:51 ◼ ► and read before I use communicated that idea to Mark about thought that would be a fun thing to do. [TS]
00:54:56 ◼ ► But that just shows like The fact is that doesn't suck that's not how it's done shows that like everyone to serve [TS]
00:55:01 ◼ ► tacitly agreeing that like yeah well we just assume most listeners are women. Right. [TS]
00:55:07 ◼ ► or trying to solve so I'm I'm not entirely opposed to just in Harry's But I think that's like. [TS]
00:55:13 ◼ ► It can be done in a way that is more inclusive than it is than it is done now. I agree with most of what you said. [TS]
00:55:24 ◼ ► Are things that we don't actually have in our at things that we don't say things that aren't in our ads aren't in our [TS]
00:55:37 ◼ ► You should buy this for some man that you know for your father for your friend who's a guy. [TS]
00:55:43 ◼ ► For your husband for your boyfriend we never make that pitch. It's never you know. [TS]
00:55:55 ◼ ► You should buy it for yourself it's great it's much better than what you currently been buying it's all about YOU YOU [TS]
00:56:03 ◼ ► Even though you was like generic and not gender specific. When it's a male focused product it makes you know. [TS]
00:56:08 ◼ ► We never go the other way. In any degree. I could see that. But I mean to me I think the solution there is not to. [TS]
00:56:18 ◼ ► Not to have to address that issue either direction. Like why. Why do we need to advertise products on our show No. [TS]
00:56:29 ◼ ► But those products exist like Would you reject a product that was focused only on women. [TS]
00:56:42 ◼ ► Percentage wise blah blah blah blah blah for the most part. Cetera et cetera lots of caviar. [TS]
00:56:46 ◼ ► Sons of oil that's a whole separate culture issue but fact is there are products that are more often bought by woman [TS]
00:56:53 ◼ ► Men only not women only there ought to be excluding from the definitions but we all know I mean about these. [TS]
00:57:01 ◼ ► That's what they're going for I don't think it's crazy to make a product focus specifically on the needs of either men [TS]
00:57:07 ◼ ► or women and whatever particular things they want to do. I think you should have both of those things. [TS]
00:57:14 ◼ ► Products for women things because we can't get more when listening to the pros. To the shows that we're trying to do. [TS]
00:57:30 ◼ ► If it takes ditching the men only sponsors to get more women to listen I'd also be willing to do that but I feel like. [TS]
00:57:37 ◼ ► There's no need to ditch the hairy spots just be more inclusive in the reeds. Right. [TS]
00:57:41 ◼ ► But you said the problem is when you go to this site it's all right but it's the reason. [TS]
00:57:46 ◼ ► The product is for men but women buy products that are for men as gifts. All the time. Well but see. [TS]
00:58:04 ◼ ► The only thing is the absence of something like oh get this for a man in your life. [TS]
00:58:08 ◼ ► Like I don't say anything like that but I also. Don't say Get this for a woman in your life like. It's like I don't. [TS]
00:58:14 ◼ ► The Had does not specify gender it does I agree it has the built in assumption that this ad I'm reading. [TS]
00:58:25 ◼ ► You can do that but you've been annoyed by buying razors the normal way you should get this because it's better. [TS]
00:58:32 ◼ ► Women have also been annoyed at buying raises normal way like it's like that like looking at this like I don't. [TS]
00:58:37 ◼ ► This what I'm saying I don't think the script that I that I actually use and practice for these kind of ads. [TS]
00:58:43 ◼ ► I don't think the script is really the problem I think the. What is being advertised. [TS]
00:58:51 ◼ ► You know advertisers that might suggest a male focus or a male bias or male only stuff. [TS]
00:58:56 ◼ ► I think the issue is the advertisers themselves. Because you know we can edit the scripts to be neutral. [TS]
00:59:02 ◼ ► Or if they aren't already. But you know if. If a bunch of women go to the Harrys site. And it says these are for men. [TS]
00:59:10 ◼ ► Well that's why if you said by the sort of man your life you'd be explicit about the fact that it says a men's product [TS]
00:59:22 ◼ ► And it might be a good gift idea because if you know someone who has problems you know is complaining about their [TS]
00:59:26 ◼ ► shaving situation you can get this for them. Like and trying to be inclusive with the read. [TS]
00:59:30 ◼ ► Is more than just leaving it neutral because neutral plus men's product equals not neutral. [TS]
00:59:36 ◼ ► But if you're going to try to do go in the other direction make sure that people are included in like. [TS]
00:59:40 ◼ ► And the same thing with that you know. To balance things out if we can get a woman only sponsor. [TS]
00:59:46 ◼ ► but I don't know if we can do that with the audience breakdown that we all feel like we have the I would say that the [TS]
00:59:51 ◼ ► script editing is necessary but not sufficient to solve the problem. Well I mean you know like. [TS]
00:59:58 ◼ ► That's that's possible as well I just I just feel like I would rather add sponsors than remote. [TS]
01:00:02 ◼ ► You know to me because Harris's like with the reason we keep doing here is read is because it's a good product [TS]
01:00:06 ◼ ► and you know people know this but we are fairly picky about the sponsors that we take for the show. [TS]
01:00:11 ◼ ► If we don't think it's actually a decent product we don't take it. But on the other hand. [TS]
01:00:16 ◼ ► Of all the sponsors that we have we have I don't know maybe ten like regular recurring sponsors most of the time. [TS]
01:00:22 ◼ ► I think only one or two are gender specific like work tech show we're not a health [TS]
01:00:37 ◼ ► And so most of our sponsors like Squarespace and hover and fractionally these are all totally ignoring gender. [TS]
01:00:47 ◼ ► We don't it doesn't matter what gender you are to use glide like it like I think there are enough people out there. [TS]
01:00:57 ◼ ► If you can say it's kind of a fluke that we have sponsors like Harry isn't already Parker. [TS]
01:01:02 ◼ ► Because we're not a show about shaving our glasses you know like we have a certain kind of audience [TS]
01:01:11 ◼ ► Than to run an ad for anything outside of tech because you at least know that we have this many people who care a lot [TS]
01:01:20 ◼ ► I agree with you that in practice mean in theory of the gender of ad should matter [TS]
01:01:30 ◼ ► but we're a tech show we only have a couple of advertisers who are who are gender specific. [TS]
01:01:40 ◼ ► And I can't pass judgment on this because I'm not a woman and so I don't really know. But what I'm curious to hear is. [TS]
01:01:58 ◼ ► This is for the women that are listening get this for the man in your life or even get this for yourself. I don't. [TS]
01:02:11 ◼ ► and say that this ad which is sensibly is for men were making it for women because we want to be inclusive. [TS]
01:02:20 ◼ ► But I don't know I'm not a woman I don't know how that feels like a lot of a lot of the things that you do for her. [TS]
01:02:27 ◼ ► Groups that are marginalized. As you know. To to try. You're trying to make them feel welcome. [TS]
01:02:35 ◼ ► Right and neutral things like Squarespace. Don't push them away. But also don't make them feel particularly welcome. [TS]
01:02:42 ◼ ► The best case would be as focused on women. Because that would really make them through this is a product for you. [TS]
01:02:47 ◼ ► We are advertising it at you. This is a thing for you. We're talking to you now. Right. That would be best. [TS]
01:02:53 ◼ ► Second best I feel like is. If there is an ad that may be in aiding to try to be inclusive in that read to say. [TS]
01:03:05 ◼ ► and in fact I'm talking to you as if as if you as if the hundred percent of the audience is women. [TS]
01:03:09 ◼ ► And I'm going to pitch this product for men to you specifically you would listen there as a woman is one of the same [TS]
01:03:19 ◼ ► The you're wise you know why that she had all the time like what you're trying to balance the scales of the massive [TS]
01:03:28 ◼ ► Is no reason to complain and it's more inclusive because people would say. You know. [TS]
01:03:40 ◼ ► People take note that something used she and this example is not interesting. You know. Like I would. [TS]
01:03:49 ◼ ► It is such a tiny drop in the bucket against all the other things that have stacked against them. [TS]
01:03:53 ◼ ► The least the very literally the very least you can do is try to make things like that. More equitable. [TS]
01:03:58 ◼ ► Dropping that entirely. But also kind of make it more equitable but then how do you how do you call out to them. [TS]
01:04:05 ◼ ► I don't know. Right that's that's what I'm saying that's a really good summary of what I was trying to say. [TS]
01:04:10 ◼ ► Speaking of advertisers it's been awhile since we should frog move along with the advertising part by talking about ads. [TS]
01:04:20 ◼ ► but I think we can in the ad part of it with a gender neutral ad for our friends at hover. [TS]
01:04:29 ◼ ► You can get ten percent off your first purchase by going to hover dot com and using this week's promo code. [TS]

01:05:29 ◼ ► Oh my God there's a lot a lot of new. Mostly terrible but sometimes good options for your the various fields you can. [TS]
01:05:44 ◼ ► If you've ever used any other domain registrar as you probably have had at best a mediocre experience many of them are. [TS]
01:05:58 ◼ ► Places to buy what you actually needed to record let me just regular domain I don't need a bunch of add on services. [TS]
01:06:04 ◼ ► I don't need a bunch of like stuff to protect me from spammers. Like should not just come with it. [TS]
01:06:12 ◼ ► This is what Hubbard specializes in they don't try to up sell you with all sorts of crazy stuff. [TS]
01:06:17 ◼ ► So for example that the protect me from spammers they know who is privacy. That just comes with hover names like they. [TS]
01:06:22 ◼ ► They just give you that because they know it why would you not want that. So that's just included. Right. [TS]
01:06:28 ◼ ► So instead of charging you for anything separately there should have been a they just they just included. [TS]

01:06:47 ◼ ► They also offer a free Valley transfer service so if you have domain somewhere else. [TS]
01:06:56 ◼ ► It's a pretty annoying and error prone. Process to transfer domains you can register ours. [TS]
01:07:03 ◼ ► If you want them to you can give them the logon to your old registrar and they will log into it [TS]
01:07:09 ◼ ► and doesn't matter how many names you have one name if you have thousand names they'll do it. [TS]

01:08:06 ◼ ► Finishing the general discussion both never finished but continuing the senator's question for the show. [TS]
01:08:17 ◼ ► Earlier this evening as I said we're going to talking about this and I asked her like you know what does she think. [TS]
01:08:21 ◼ ► What can we do to address this problem you know from her point of view. And what I've heard from a lot of people and. [TS]
01:08:29 ◼ ► and we heard from arguably even people in the chat have said this in the last half hour we've been talking with us. [TS]
01:08:42 ◼ ► or who are themselves women who listen for the for like the more human general parts of the show. [TS]
01:08:50 ◼ ► But don't don't like or don't listen for the in-depth programming stuff. And this. [TS]
01:08:57 ◼ ► This is certainly an issue we're talking about because it's not that there are no women programmers. [TS]
01:09:02 ◼ ► But as we know the ratio of. You know that the gender breakdown and in engineering jobs is really nowhere near even. [TS]
01:09:14 ◼ ► I will note that we often get the exact same feedback from men who are not programmers who listen to the show but. [TS]
01:09:25 ◼ ► As one of the reasons why women don't like our show or don't listen to all of our show or listeners are consistently. [TS]
01:09:31 ◼ ► You guessed I mean to some degree we can say like well you know just like we said earlier the. [TS]
01:09:36 ◼ ► The format of the show is the three of us like we don't have guest hosts. We could look at this. [TS]
01:09:41 ◼ ► This topic and we can say well. Do we just say like well we are programming show sometimes. [TS]
01:09:49 ◼ ► or some them both that will just always be this way what do you think this is explicitly outside the bounds of my goals [TS]
01:09:55 ◼ ► My set up was of all the people in the world who I think would enjoy our show how many of them are not listening to it. [TS]
01:10:02 ◼ ► And our show means our show as it exists. We could appeal to a much broader base if we talked about politics or sports. [TS]
01:10:15 ◼ ► and we only talk about the details of a specific kind of model train our audience would be way smaller right. [TS]
01:10:22 ◼ ► We're doing what we're talking about what we are passionate about it has a necessarily a narrow audience. [TS]
01:10:36 ◼ ► Way more people care about politics and sports than care about any of the stuff we talk about. [TS]
01:10:43 ◼ ► I will never give up talking about the minutiae of programming languages than operating systems and an A.P.I. [TS]
01:10:51 ◼ ► My focus is entirely on their women out there who are interested in the minutiae of programming languages [TS]
01:10:57 ◼ ► and file systems and crap like that who are listening to the show because of stuff we're doing. [TS]
01:11:01 ◼ ► To signal to the end of the show is not for them and that is entirely where my focus is. [TS]
01:11:05 ◼ ► I think we do talk about broader topics occasionally lot of that might be as some of the feedback was pointing out that. [TS]
01:11:14 ◼ ► That we occasionally talk about touchy feely things that occasionally gets a broader top maybe it's not clear from the [TS]
01:11:19 ◼ ► outside that occasionally we talk about programming language for half an hour and you know. [TS]
01:11:27 ◼ ► I want the show to be about tech stuff and we're all interest that we all have our own little tech tech pet peeves [TS]
01:11:33 ◼ ► and hangouts and things we want to go superintend up with and that's never going to change because that's the show. [TS]
01:11:39 ◼ ► The only thing I would take away from this is that like that we should do a somehow do a better job of representing to [TS]
01:11:46 ◼ ► the outside world. The range of topics that we do talk about because there is a fairly weird. [TS]
01:12:02 ◼ ► Sort of go to all these other islands and the different ends of the spectrum. Yeah. I completely agree. I think we. [TS]
01:12:09 ◼ ► The three of us really love doing this show and. It's not that we are opposed to making tweaks. [TS]
01:12:24 ◼ ► And I think that having the show be an accident having the show yes we have shown notes that we kind of work off of [TS]
01:12:32 ◼ ► every week. But we just kind of throws things against the wall and sometimes they stick and sometimes they don't. [TS]
01:12:36 ◼ ► And keeping that format is critical in much the same way is keeping the three of us is critical and. [TS]
01:12:49 ◼ ► but to dramatically change the content of the show would be changing the show entirely. [TS]
01:12:52 ◼ ► And I think the best part of that specific we had about that is related to our recent revelation that people didn't [TS]
01:12:58 ◼ ► know the after show existed because we would always put the stuff on the after show to try to maintain the balance. [TS]
01:13:02 ◼ ► Some semblance of like uniformity of like well there's mostly the tech stuff in the beginning [TS]
01:13:07 ◼ ► and if we have something it's less tech related because the show is called axonal Tech podcast. [TS]
01:13:11 ◼ ► We should save the most non techie stuff. Or the time we just want to talk about like cars or whatever. [TS]
01:13:17 ◼ ► For the after show. But having learned that a lot of people did know the at the show even existed. [TS]
01:13:24 ◼ ► Don't leave stuff in the after show because have to leave alone even though it's there [TS]
01:13:31 ◼ ► and I think in the future will be less maybe will still keep the car stuff there. But you know. [TS]
01:13:36 ◼ ► Nobody likes that except the biggest car is how I feel like the cars have your narrow appeal [TS]
01:13:41 ◼ ► but then you've got to be a techno and be super into cars the your percentages start going down right. [TS]
01:13:45 ◼ ► But for things that have broader appeal than tech like little like women in tech I think hell is a broader topic than [TS]
01:13:51 ◼ ► age of us plus. That should be in the main show I think that is definitely a change we're going to do. [TS]
01:13:57 ◼ ► But I have least was under the impression like this is the separation the show is like just dividing things up on your [TS]
01:14:04 ◼ ► That's the get over there where things go and we don't really want to talk about them and you know like. [TS]
01:14:10 ◼ ► It wasn't a lesser part the after show was not lesser in any way but it's lesser people don't even know it exists. [TS]
01:14:19 ◼ ► and you know we Last week we had this on the topic list. We had of the things in front of it because like of news. [TS]
01:14:28 ◼ ► and we chose not to because we wanted to give it the attention of being a main topic. [TS]
01:14:32 ◼ ► That's why it was up first this week as the first main topic. Yep absolutely. One more thing in the chat room. [TS]
01:14:40 ◼ ► Says he's talking to someone who is both in there and saying three men discussing what women like [TS]

01:27:34 ◼ ► And within like a day. I already looked at it what I've made I'm like OK this works but not very good. [TS]
01:27:44 ◼ ► And there's a number of things about this I'm not going to go into a whole of like specific detail of things that [TS]
01:27:55 ◼ ► And it's always bad to describe all that image stuff on a podcast so also that from [TS]
01:28:06 ◼ ► The original interface of it mimicked the three level navigation hierarchy of the i Phone app so you have like you know. [TS]
01:28:17 ◼ ► Then you pick one of those an apostle unit the second level which is a list of episodes in the thing you picked. [TS]
01:28:22 ◼ ► And you pick an episode and push you to a third level which is the Now Playing screen. [TS]
01:28:25 ◼ ► And you can go back to the other levels and changing whatever. So I replicated that structure on to the watch. [TS]
01:28:31 ◼ ► So I had you know launch the app an easy you know. List of things list of episodes and now playing. [TS]
01:28:40 ◼ ► Weird lags and delays with loading apps loading watch what apps watch kid is really slow at times and. [TS]
01:28:50 ◼ ► Like in general one things are loaded it's fine but the process of of loading a nap. [TS]

01:29:18 ◼ ► Watch kit apps are fragile to some degree. Like. And they're inconsistent. The more you ask them to do. [TS]
01:29:28 ◼ ► I had a number of issues with my three level navigation structure being given to the watch. One of the issues was that. [TS]
01:29:35 ◼ ► What I really wanted most of the time was the Now Playing a screen to show up first because it's usually what you need [TS]
01:29:40 ◼ ► to interact with like changing things on the Now Playing screen. Seeing what's playing seeing how much time is left. [TS]
01:29:46 ◼ ► Seeking back and forth then it may be recommending it is something I frequently do. [TS]
01:29:51 ◼ ► Often times like I'll be out walking my dog or something and I love what I'm listening to [TS]
01:29:58 ◼ ► but you know about what I was doing stuff like that that none of that is going back to the list of pod cast [TS]
01:30:08 ◼ ► And if I'm going to that I can take my phone out. I had built this app to mimic the structure of the I O. S. App. [TS]
01:30:13 ◼ ► In practice. That was adding a lot of complexity to lots of things. Suffice to say. I restructured the whole app. [TS]
01:30:20 ◼ ► And now it is it is centered on rather than being a three level navigation hierarchy where the final level [TS]
01:30:32 ◼ ► The only the root level is the Now Playing screen and any any other functions are brought up by slide up model. Sheets. [TS]
01:30:44 ◼ ► but that structure ends up working a lot better because it's simple because it's asking watch get to load a lot less on [TS]
01:30:58 ◼ ► As you choosing to do the things the watch can do. Quickly or responsibly. Over the things the watch those slowly. [TS]
01:31:08 ◼ ► Yes so this. This is why this is the part I want to actually talk about on the show. [TS]
01:31:19 ◼ ► and did try to do with watch Kid My initial inclination was well here's this device that is a. [TS]
01:31:31 ◼ ► Interface to make the watch a version of the app. It's assuming that the watch version of the app. [TS]
01:31:38 ◼ ► Should be like the i Phone version of the app. Not only is that wrong. But I think. [TS]
01:31:49 ◼ ► You can look at what happened with these platforms growing up so far. You know first Apple developers made mac apps. [TS]
01:31:56 ◼ ► And then I.O.'s came along and so a lot of the mac developers. Some point. Have tried in the last seven years. [TS]
01:32:03 ◼ ► To to make an i O. S. Version of their mac app to see or and i OS counterparts their mac app. [TS]
01:32:13 ◼ ► There are a lot that don't there's a lot of apps that can be perfectly great useful in demand apps on a mac. [TS]
01:32:20 ◼ ► That just like. Just the realities of I O. S. Devices or the or I O. S. The platform the O.-S. Itself. [TS]
01:32:29 ◼ ► You know maybe maybe things that need precise mouse control keyboard shortcuts big screens. [TS]
01:32:34 ◼ ► That kind of stuff like I'm not going to edit the pod cast on an i Pad even though I can if there are tools to do that. [TS]
01:32:40 ◼ ► but I can do it so much better on a mac than I could ever do. On an i Pad that I'm going to learn a Mac. [TS]
01:32:46 ◼ ► You know there are certain things like that where like something might be technically possible to migrate over to a new [TS]
01:32:52 ◼ ► platform. But not useful or compelling. Compared to just you know having a be on on one. [TS]
01:32:59 ◼ ► And same thing applies there in the opposite direction like a lot of I.O.'s things are not very compelling. [TS]
01:33:04 ◼ ► or useful on the Mac. They're there compelling you follow us and you can say the same thing between. [TS]
01:33:08 ◼ ► I Phones and i Pads. Many things work better on one device and the other. It's cetera so from that point of view alone. [TS]
01:33:16 ◼ ► You can look at the watch and the assumption that the watch. Should have apps. Corresponding to your i Phone app. [TS]
01:33:24 ◼ ► You know whatever whatever app you make or whatever after thinking of using. Chances are most. I Phone apps. [TS]
01:33:35 ◼ ► For most i Phone apps a watch component is not that compelling. And not that useful. [TS]
01:33:41 ◼ ► In practice especially considering what the watch can do today like there's limitations. [TS]
01:33:45 ◼ ► You know just things watch it can do this quite a lot of things watch it can do it's a very simple system. [TS]
01:33:50 ◼ ► So there's no limitations of what Watch it can and can't do. Plus just you know it's speed and bugs. [TS]
01:33:56 ◼ ► Is also just like inherent qualities of the watch as as a platform or as a physical device like. [TS]
01:34:06 ◼ ► but they're still relatively handheld touchscreen devices like they're still like the same general size class of what [TS]
01:34:17 ◼ ► That you can pick up and probably use with one hand and then put back in your pocket when you're done. [TS]
01:34:22 ◼ ► I Pads are bigger things they don't fit in most pockets. They can fit in most bags but not most pockets. [TS]

01:35:38 ◼ ► I Pads and i Phones are inherently limited by not having physical keyboards and precise mice. [TS]
01:35:45 ◼ ► Like that limits the kind of apps that work well on them the kind of use of the work on them. [TS]
01:35:52 ◼ ► or whatever it's not the same it doesn't like those lines always exist right. So looking at the watch now. [TS]
01:36:08 ◼ ► Current The I fix it tear down the watch is approximately a tenth the size of the i Phone six battery. [TS]
01:36:19 ◼ ► Also you know much like a screen I probably I don't know maybe a tenth of the screen area or. [TS]
01:36:23 ◼ ► Probably not that bad but it's you know. Close maybe a fifth of the screen area. It's. It's a much smaller thing. [TS]
01:36:32 ◼ ► And so it is necessarily as we discussed last episode a device that. One of your hands can't operate. [TS]
01:36:40 ◼ ► And so you know you have to operate with your other hand or your nose or John's tongue [TS]
01:36:45 ◼ ► or whatever the case may be like. So these are these inherent limitations of this device net. [TS]
01:36:50 ◼ ► No matter how good the hardware inside the watch gets. As technology will go over time no to how good that gets. [TS]
01:36:57 ◼ ► It's still always going to be a small screen. Strapped to one of your wrists. That will have probably you know. [TS]
01:37:04 ◼ ► An order of magnitude less battery life. That whatever we can put into the phone in your pocket. [TS]
01:37:09 ◼ ► That's what So there's assumption that many people have made that the watch is eventually going to replace the Smart [TS]

01:38:02 ◼ ► What's more interesting is that I have heard that now for almost everybody in real life was talking about the watch [TS]
01:38:09 ◼ ► like people who are not like regular people think like oh this is the next new thing. [TS]

01:39:48 ◼ ► Right that's what you basically have to do because like you said you're never going to do the stuff you do on a phone. [TS]
01:39:55 ◼ ► If you're touching it with your fingers and looking at it with your eyeballs but if the thing is. [TS]
01:39:59 ◼ ► Acted on to your retinas and a virtual nineteen inch screen in front of you that comes and goes [TS]
01:40:05 ◼ ► Input not one of the changed radically from what they are now. If you envision a world. [TS]
01:40:09 ◼ ► They only contains capacitive touch screens of various sizes then everything you're saying is one hundred percent true. [TS]
01:40:17 ◼ ► But long long term I think the reason you hear all this wearable hype most of the wearable have I read is that like. [TS]
01:40:22 ◼ ► As the cost and size of compute goes down to zero. Other things become possible. When everything. [TS]
01:40:28 ◼ ► Your entire body is still the tiny microprocessors that are fifteen times more powerful than the eight [TS]
01:40:33 ◼ ► and it's all powered by style actress city from your stuff on your feet on the carpet and you know like like that's. [TS]
01:40:37 ◼ ► You need new input in up methods though. And you know something that goes directly into your eyeballs or. [TS]
01:40:43 ◼ ► You know via our goggles are the first giant clunky versions that are things that are in your ears [TS]
01:40:50 ◼ ► Like that's I think what people are talking about the tech the tech people who talk about future world where balls of [TS]
01:40:56 ◼ ► But the people are coming up to you our religion only I seems like asking you Are you not going to use your phone now [TS]
01:41:01 ◼ ► that you have a postage stamp size capacitor touch screen and your wrist I hope you're telling them No that is exactly. [TS]
01:41:11 ◼ ► and that's going to keep being a thing as smart watches grow in popularity over the next few years like that's going to [TS]
01:41:18 ◼ ► The reason I asked before about like you're making choices for overcast based on what the phone can do quickly is that [TS]
01:41:28 ◼ ► The watch that things just as fast as the phone like multi-level hierarchy they work just like that [TS]
01:41:32 ◼ ► and you know like are you making the choice because it's the best you I conceptually. [TS]
01:41:38 ◼ ► Are you are you saying Conceptually we better this labor practically speaking is too damn slow with Watch get so I have [TS]
01:41:45 ◼ ► Design that I wouldn't otherwise choose just because performances you know so much more important than like navigation [TS]
01:41:51 ◼ ► hierarchy or whatever like all you know. The performance like I'm into the whole reason the i Phone was awesome like. [TS]
01:41:55 ◼ ► You know what's different thing i Phone although that's phones like the performance so massively better it's like a [TS]
01:42:01 ◼ ► step jump it in an experience right. So you're definitely making the right choice but like. [TS]
01:42:06 ◼ ► I'm wondering you know any kind of a shame that if you're forced to make that choice by crappy performance [TS]
01:42:11 ◼ ► I'm wondering if the choices will change as they watch evolves because although obviously always be able to get [TS]
01:42:20 ◼ ► and they will soon you know march forward down the line of getting faster and so on eventuality the watch will be. [TS]
01:42:26 ◼ ► Hopefully like it you know native apps or watch cable be better or like five versions of the watch from now. [TS]
01:42:33 ◼ ► I'm hoping performance will be way way better and then. You know what will happen along with like them. [TS]
01:42:38 ◼ ► You know given given that watch the five years from now watch where you were visit you or your you why [TS]
01:42:43 ◼ ► and say now the performance isn't a factor. I might how it might I do this you why differently and I. [TS]
01:42:48 ◼ ► I think for the most part you can tell me because you were I was over really early on when i was i Phone No US right. [TS]
01:42:53 ◼ ► Did you ever have to make that choice on i OS like that you're making you why choices based on what the phone the [TS]
01:43:02 ◼ ► when they were scrolling really slow I don't know like did you ever have to do that. [TS]
01:43:05 ◼ ► Not really usually it was the opposite direction usually the things I would. I would think in my head before I did it. [TS]
01:43:11 ◼ ► That probably won't be fast enough and I would try and I'm like oh this phone hardware is not as bad as I thought. [TS]
01:43:16 ◼ ► Like the way out the crazy way I would then say but I do pagination and detection of where pages and it was crazy. [TS]
01:43:22 ◼ ► And it worked. And I'm shocked that it worked. Or even with overcast as I've said before like with overcast. [TS]
01:43:31 ◼ ► And the visual was there and they realize they all those things I thought would be too slow on the real hardware [TS]
01:43:40 ◼ ► Usage like wow OK the aisle to do it then it was like yet another reason I'm wrong so they all their own the already [TS]
01:43:46 ◼ ► listed that the watch is different because I think it's the first Apple platform in a while except for maybe O S ten [TS]
01:43:55 ◼ ► Actually it's slower than you think it is actually watched it has more limitations and you thought it might [TS]
01:44:00 ◼ ► and not just like limitations in capability but like yeah you can do is watch good but have you seen what it's like [TS]
01:44:05 ◼ ► and how long it takes a lot of those things right. So it's just a different mindset it's kind of going back to. [TS]
01:44:10 ◼ ► I don't know like old world mindset where you just assume the computer is really slow and you had to be like. [TS]
01:44:16 ◼ ► I got a fair what's a computer can do fast. And then make my after that because especially when it comes to you eyes. [TS]
01:44:22 ◼ ► That's so much more important than conceptual purity or as some wire frame that you have that you fall in love with. [TS]
01:44:28 ◼ ► Well. But the fact is. What we're talking we're talking but like you know C.P.U. Performance really. [TS]
01:44:34 ◼ ► But that's not the problem on the watch. See a mean we don't know. Our apps are not running on the watch a C.P.U. [TS]
01:44:44 ◼ ► or wife I between I were talking to the before like of that is never going to get faster faster faster until the watch [TS]
01:44:53 ◼ ► My collective experience with wife I am Bluetooth is there some inherent Lagan out this just never going to go you [TS]
01:44:58 ◼ ► never get that down to a point where it feels as responsive as something running on a device. Exactly and. [TS]
01:45:02 ◼ ► But you know. Even that being said like you know. The as of the. The performance for things like tapping buttons like. [TS]
01:45:09 ◼ ► Yeah you can feel there's lag there. But it's acceptable. Overall it's not great. It's it's acceptable. [TS]
01:45:20 ◼ ► One of the first thing that it was like swipe through like the glances or whatever. And you know. [TS]
01:45:28 ◼ ► But it kind of felt like a couple generations ago i Phone like this is not a demanding task is all happening on the [TS]
01:45:34 ◼ ► phone it's not watch get apps like it's just there you know I'm assuming it's got a view is all in memory I'm just [TS]
01:45:38 ◼ ► asking it to Open G.L. If I transition things from one to the next and responses wipes. [TS]
01:45:46 ◼ ► It didn't feel as snappy certainly not as unhappy as like an i Phone six maybe it felt like one of my all the i Pod [TS]
01:45:57 ◼ ► We've moved back in time to at best Apple's own apps are have moved back in time several generations in the aisles [TS]
01:46:10 ◼ ► Now totally And you know like the rumors I mean I don't think we've had any confirmation on this now that we've had the [TS]
01:46:15 ◼ ► thing but the rumors are were always that it was roughly eighty five performance which would match. [TS]
01:46:21 ◼ ► Was that the architecture they thought it was like it's a tiny a five because it's got to be so massively under clocked [TS]
01:46:27 ◼ ► in there we don't know right but I asked her home just. We had to go point a clock. [TS]
01:46:31 ◼ ► but look I mean the reality is what we've seen the want to do it does certainly appear that computational performance [TS]
01:46:43 ◼ ► But that is it isn't even seem to be the limiting factor for Apple's apps that you know that they do all sorts of like [TS]
01:46:49 ◼ ► and stuff that are probably not all pre render images the way the watch gets have to be like that you know they can do [TS]
01:47:00 ◼ ► So you know that is being a mac person John I know I made a reference to an old C.P.U. Anyway I'm with you. [TS]
01:47:14 ◼ ► and I will I will wager that I have written more I faced some of the balls and you can buy. Anyway. [TS]
01:47:21 ◼ ► Thousands and thousands of lines. Anyway so the point is like technology will get better. [TS]
01:47:26 ◼ ► Even if the watch hardware right now is too slow to do something that will change in a few years that. [TS]
01:47:35 ◼ ► My argument is that no matter how good the harbor gets the inherent limitations of like how how you interact with this [TS]
01:47:44 ◼ ► thing how. You know the. The interface being like the time. The time piece is the home screen. [TS]
01:47:54 ◼ ► You kind of go there as a last resort to do something and many things are happening through the three glances [TS]
01:47:59 ◼ ► and watch complications instead of going out to the apps free and everything like this is and. [TS]
01:48:04 ◼ ► You know and it's still it's. It's a very small screen. That you can only access from one hand. [TS]
01:48:16 ◼ ► Needs to be on the was not every app should be on the watch. And I would venture to say that overall. [TS]
01:48:22 ◼ ► While the watch does add a lot of types of apps that are now compelling that weren't before. [TS]
01:48:35 ◼ ► Before an alligator wouldn't like they wouldn't have been useful enough on an i Phone [TS]
01:48:39 ◼ ► or it wouldn't of been interesting on an i Phone It would have seemed too simple or whatever. On the watch. [TS]
01:48:48 ◼ ► But I would argue like there's like a continuum of computing devices that and like their use their uses [TS]
01:48:59 ◼ ► Computer type devices where you can install applications you can run them you can do you know. [TS]
01:49:04 ◼ ► It's like a general purpose it. It could be your main computer. For some people that is an i Phone or an i Pad. [TS]
01:49:10 ◼ ► For most people it's going to be a P.C. or A mac actually probably not most anymore but the smartphone is winning. [TS]
01:49:27 ◼ ► To me like the watch on this continuum you have like those kind of devices which can be general purpose computers [TS]
01:49:34 ◼ ► and then like on the other end you have like a Bluetooth headset. Which like. Is it has a computing. [TS]
01:49:41 ◼ ► Processor type thing. In it. But it's not an app platform. It doesn't. It will never be an app platform. [TS]
01:49:47 ◼ ► It doesn't need to be an apple for. What about my Thunderball cables and run outs on that. [TS]
01:49:55 ◼ ► So you have a discontinuing like on one and you have like full blown computers another [TS]
01:50:01 ◼ ► but are really just like dedicated peripheral type things are dedicated. You know specialized things. [TS]
01:50:11 ◼ ► It's the watch is closer to a peripheral to an i Phone accessory. Than to its own independent. Standalone platform. [TS]
01:50:19 ◼ ► Well that's going a little far it is running I us for cry a lot like on the technical side I think you're right on the [TS]
01:50:25 ◼ ► technical side. It has a C.P.U. It has a display you could has apps that you can access. [TS]
01:50:31 ◼ ► But I think the way you actually use a thing once everyone calms down once and I want is worn off. [TS]
01:50:36 ◼ ► I think the way we're actually going to use this thing is. This is like every mote view on to the computing wife. [TS]
01:50:49 ◼ ► Not every app is going to need to be on the watch a lot of uses we're now using the watch we're going to go back to the. [TS]
01:50:56 ◼ ► phones A.O.L. Actually. It was easier to pull my phone out and do X. Y. or Z. Rather than doing those things. [TS]
01:51:06 ◼ ► You know I think the watch is in general even though it does create new opportunities I think it's going to be a much [TS]
01:51:12 ◼ ► smaller at platform. In practice. Then what people might been hoping for before. Before we had them. [TS]
01:51:19 ◼ ► And that's not because Apple did a bad job with that. That's because of the realities of what. [TS]
01:51:27 ◼ ► Well I hope that's just a temporary thing though because if I'm thinking of some specific applications that are [TS]
01:51:35 ◼ ► And we just can't do because the computing is not there and like you know. If you get a watch that has its own G.P.S. [TS]
01:51:43 ◼ ► That has a much faster C.P.U. and G.P.U. Any kind of like G.P.S. Based hiking are walking around the city type thing. [TS]
01:51:52 ◼ ► It's the worst to try to walk around a city while holding up a phone in front of you to see where it is. If you had. [TS]
01:51:57 ◼ ► If you had to the base with you just unlimited computing about a city and onboard G.P.S. On your watch. [TS]
01:52:02 ◼ ► You could navigate in a city with just a watch you know be an awesome experience better than fishing your phone out a [TS]
01:52:10 ◼ ► and so I think there is a potential for this computing platform to come into its own and be a full fledged computer [TS]
01:52:20 ◼ ► Not because not now all of a sudden everyone of your Iowa South computer watches that stupid [TS]
01:52:25 ◼ ► but for things that are actually better are there on your watch that we just can't do now it is like well it's always [TS]
01:52:29 ◼ ► tell the phone if you tried to use that way. As a remote display for the Apple Maps application. [TS]
01:52:36 ◼ ► Can you imagine like a watch that responded in basically real time to its orientation and direction. [TS]
01:52:43 ◼ ► Like it had a map on it and as you raise your arm it would adjust in like three D. [TS]
01:52:49 ◼ ► or how you wave your arm around the arrow constantly pointing to the left turn your supposed to make like. [TS]
01:52:53 ◼ ► We're not even close to that kind of computing power and and battery to support that [TS]
01:52:58 ◼ ► And that is a way cooler experience to just be able to glance down at your wrist put your arm and any position [TS]
01:53:03 ◼ ► and have a big green arrow pointing exactly where you're supposed to go on the trail next or whatever. [TS]
01:53:09 ◼ ► or little indicators to see you know how close the closest Starbucks is a runner Marconi's that up. Oh yeah. Every day. [TS]
01:53:17 ◼ ► You know like you know I'm I'm not willing to accept the the watch will be relegated to this forever because I think [TS]
01:53:23 ◼ ► it's just we're just stuck with what we're stuck with now but if they just ramp up the technology. [TS]
01:53:28 ◼ ► New classes of that was whatever install a new class that occasionally falls right now. [TS]
01:53:31 ◼ ► Perhaps new classes are not possible like you said it's mostly just for a peripheral view of things that are going on [TS]
01:53:38 ◼ ► on your phone and you don't to tell time and tell your steps and do all that stuff. [TS]
01:53:50 ◼ ► We'll get to this one right it doesn't take much more and obviously taking it out and then it takes you know. [TS]
01:53:55 ◼ ► Or piracy views involved blog a couple generations. New things will be possible in the watch and G.P.S. [TS]
01:54:02 ◼ ► Is just the one I thought thought that maybe that's not even true but like people will try everything. [TS]
01:54:08 ◼ ► Maybe we can have games on there and maybe that sucks maybe does like ever people try everything [TS]
01:54:12 ◼ ► and you know one of those things are going to have the same thing we did with the phone it's like no one knew it was [TS]
01:54:17 ◼ ► going to be great on the phone until we tried every possible thing quitting fart apps [TS]
01:54:20 ◼ ► and eventually it settles on of the things that it does well. It's just that you know right now. [TS]
01:54:27 ◼ ► and you know as a lot of the viewers say there's like thousands of watch good apps [TS]
01:54:30 ◼ ► and most of them suck because people who are wrong about what would be good in a watch get up. But the watch good days. [TS]
01:54:41 ◼ ► The equivalent of fart apps in the Washington someone had something good will day one of the App Store. [TS]
01:54:49 ◼ ► They were very similar to what people are saying now which is like yet the vast majority of these things are terrible. [TS]
01:54:54 ◼ ► A few are good. But the majority are terrible. What was the first app you download and the App Store. [TS]
01:55:01 ◼ ► I don't know I remember that first day I don't want a bunch of I downloaded Monkey Ball [TS]
01:55:05 ◼ ► and couple of other think Monkey Ball is probably my top three I think I had lights out. Member that one. [TS]
01:55:13 ◼ ► but I remember what I'm getting as the experience I remember like Oh so this is the app store where can we download [TS]
01:55:19 ◼ ► or something wasn't it was the I think you know it's the old Dave that stores kids let me tell you Monkey Ball ten [TS]
01:55:25 ◼ ► Yet the controls came with her well you know I Love Monkey Ball on the games you have awesome game. On the i Phone. [TS]
01:55:33 ◼ ► Big names things made by people an album and you write use all of them you're like. I guess try again. [TS]
01:55:42 ◼ ► and like the lights out was the best game practically because that would have been developed for the App Store [TS]
01:55:46 ◼ ► and it was a good and. It was a game they knew would work on the phone because all you do is poke the screen which. [TS]
01:55:57 ◼ ► Good use of the phone that was like the best app that I remember on day one. Our thanks what the response of this week. [TS]
01:56:20 ◼ ► John didn't tell anyone the mom going to be seen with him. Because it was then going to dance to it was accidental. [TS]
01:56:42 ◼ ► He was no says that ski lifts and the team article are limited to free. Let's take the risk you know. I'm looking at. [TS]
01:57:11 ◼ ► You know I went into my i Phone to the app store to purchase a scroll to the bottom. [TS]
01:57:16 ◼ ► You actually got to be on that list. Well. The very first one and all instant messenger. Noted that. [TS]
01:57:24 ◼ ► I know it's probably used for five minutes for side on your i didn't even room. Remember that I had it. [TS]
01:57:30 ◼ ► Next one lab or inthe light EDITION. I had that to you know. Next one Tap Tap Revenge classic paid version.. [TS]
01:57:38 ◼ ► I had that one. And then couple of games. Restaurant nutrition. Air sharing. Couple of V.N. C.S.S. [TS]
01:57:51 ◼ ► I thought flight control is the first one I downloaded because when I got my phone. [TS]
01:57:55 ◼ ► That was to my memory around the time the flight controls brand new and to my memory that was one of the first games. [TS]
01:58:05 ◼ ► But one of the first games that just everyone had to have AND ALL MY GOD I LOVE fly control I play the thing for hours. [TS]
01:58:12 ◼ ► New York Times. Apple Remote App Net News Wire chopper was like topless bar which I loved to prevent scribble light. [TS]
01:58:20 ◼ ► More cowbell. Yes I don't litter the cowbell app. Nice banner free black and white looks looks like a fellow. [TS]
01:58:30 ◼ ► and I guess it's because it was like one of those only optimistic hard day one that you have the same thing. [TS]
01:58:41 ◼ ► Shouldn't I shouldn't those devices cool with on the like less of the scroll the message across your screen. [TS]
01:58:45 ◼ ► I think that was actually a good idea for a day when up. Yeah. I Pads actually kind of useful as a big cube runner A.P. [TS]
01:58:52 ◼ ► World nine pair me subway shuffle labyrinth white as we al the labyrinth games on day one peg jump [TS]
01:59:02 ◼ ► Holy shit garbage basically did some good stuff. Did you have the physical version of labyrinth light. [TS]
01:59:07 ◼ ► You know the show on the icon for labyrinth. The marble labyrinth is made of wood. Yeah. [TS]
01:59:13 ◼ ► Yeah I love those things we have one through the physical one is much more satisfying than the. Yeah I was game. Yeah. [TS]
01:59:19 ◼ ► Yeah. Of all these of all these things the thing I spent the most time playing was black and white the. [TS]
01:59:30 ◼ ► No no no but it was my day one if you will because it was by the time I got an i Phone [TS]
01:59:35 ◼ ► and i think i played flight control more than any other game. On my phone. Any of my phones. [TS]
01:59:40 ◼ ► After I love flight control although I did play a lot of RAM champ. That was much later. Yeah was it was launched. [TS]
01:59:47 ◼ ► When are you going to get my phone to do my apps are mine I'm curious you know if I can you can find items. Can you. [TS]
01:59:57 ◼ ► So if you scroll all if you sort by most recent for all that the bottom of that giant page it's there. [TS]
02:00:02 ◼ ► Newswire chopper tap tap scribble I penned or radio. Facebook I tell her Facebook. [TS]
02:00:14 ◼ ► Google am I should make fun of the name thing I've got to ANY the bap and then to I thought clones tapped Africa. [TS]
02:00:23 ◼ ► Trizone banner free voice yeah. We hold out hope the same damn apps and they want labyrinth light. [TS]
02:00:28 ◼ ► My twelfth EPS was flight controllers previously discussed. Fifteenth that tumbler. [TS]
02:00:35 ◼ ► Another classic from the old days space that be still out there very cool game I'm surprised. [TS]
02:00:41 ◼ ► I mean maybe it's not a good not good fit for the phone but I really love the game. [TS]
02:00:48 ◼ ► and for the pie for the two biggest pieces of install just for me Flight Control icon. And the tweety icon. [TS]
