to me forget T-shirts like I made the mistake of using my system I have
[TS]
00:00:04
◼
►
restoring T-shirts is like my nerdy shirts gone hangers instead of being
[TS]
00:00:08
◼
►
folded up and I figured let's find a bike too nerdy shirts now a thousand
[TS]
00:00:13
◼
►
their teachers in the half my closet Isner t shirts on hangers I just spaces
[TS]
00:00:19
◼
►
we should probably actually start the show so we have some follow-up from all
[TS]
00:00:26
◼
►
the way across the planet in Australia Jon Lajoie to tell us about what way to
[TS]
00:00:30
◼
►
Australia that this is the best theory I've heard so far although it's still
[TS]
00:00:34
◼
►
kind of vague in shaky based on fake products and members of why a 12 inch
[TS]
00:00:41
◼
►
MacBook Air might only have one USB port on it instead of 22 hotties I can't wait
[TS]
00:00:47
◼
►
for the Sun to come out so we can stop talking about it the worst part of the
[TS]
00:00:50
◼
►
room with Retina screen really involved through it like one part why would you
[TS]
00:00:56
◼
►
do that on purpose and then I just do I need to have a reason because it doesn't
[TS]
00:01:02
◼
►
make any sense otherwise so this is about the PCI Express Lanes how many PCI
[TS]
00:01:07
◼
►
Express lanes are supported by Karim chipset that we assume this fake product
[TS]
00:01:12
◼
►
will use and according to wait from Australia it supports two lanes of PCI
[TS]
00:01:17
◼
►
Express 4 gigabytes per lane so that means you need more than two lanes per
[TS]
00:01:23
◼
►
USB 3.0 Unported you want the full speed which I would assume they do so you
[TS]
00:01:27
◼
►
start adding up the parts you end up like with one lane for the pci-express
[TS]
00:01:31
◼
►
SSD and 14 like wi-fi Bluetooth and stuff like that and you can get the
[TS]
00:01:37
◼
►
chipset with different combinations of lanes and waves speculation is that if
[TS]
00:01:41
◼
►
you can get everything in four lanes then you don't have to you can get a
[TS]
00:01:47
◼
►
chipset the just as those for means you don't need to spend power like pulling
[TS]
00:01:50
◼
►
other lanes for devices like in other words you can shut down some of the
[TS]
00:01:54
◼
►
so you're going to need more than forces single lanes just 44 USC 351 you need to
[TS]
00:02:01
◼
►
really enjoy that and you more further radios and SSD you already at five if
[TS]
00:02:06
◼
►
you want to add another part you have to bump it up at this from 528 I guess I'll
[TS]
00:02:10
◼
►
this depends on do you really get a big power savings from keeping it at or
[TS]
00:02:14
◼
►
under for a tour under five like is there a point at which you have to spend
[TS]
00:02:19
◼
►
like the the power budget takes a leap you know does not scale linearly so PCI
[TS]
00:02:24
◼
►
Express lanes are sort of the the currency the internals of modern max in
[TS]
00:02:31
◼
►
terms of how many do you have and then what can you spend them on and stuff
[TS]
00:02:34
◼
►
like that because you know once you're out of them you're you're out of them
[TS]
00:02:36
◼
►
and i think is that a USB 3.0 is not built into the chipset that's why you
[TS]
00:02:41
◼
►
need to use PCI Express it's not an integrated into the chipsets so I i buy
[TS]
00:02:49
◼
►
more of these theories because it plays into hardware constraints that Apple
[TS]
00:02:53
◼
►
doesn't have control over and also power saving but you know it's speculated
[TS]
00:02:58
◼
►
machine from a mock up and we don't know exactly what contrast that you never
[TS]
00:03:02
◼
►
know what kind of crazy stuff that Apple has inside their laptops again with the
[TS]
00:03:06
◼
►
history of the repackaged chip in the original MacBook Air who's to say the
[TS]
00:03:10
◼
►
things that are offered by Intel right now are the things to constrain Apple
[TS]
00:03:14
◼
►
specifically so we'll wait and see I don't I don't think we've ever actually
[TS]
00:03:18
◼
►
seen correct me if I'm wrong but it's not my head here I don't think we've
[TS]
00:03:22
◼
►
ever actually seen Intel give Apple access to a 28 chipset or even a chip
[TS]
00:03:28
◼
►
itself that wasn't available on the market with the one exception of the end
[TS]
00:03:32
◼
►
of the day but that was only a that was like a physical repackaging but to make
[TS]
00:03:36
◼
►
the pins smaller but like the chip the die was still the same as what everyone
[TS]
00:03:40
◼
►
else was getting some apple would be willing to put another chip on the board
[TS]
00:03:44
◼
►
that's not part of Intel's chips the chips that has this and then we buy from
[TS]
00:03:47
◼
►
whatever other we are manufacturer that we have some relationship with for iOS
[TS]
00:03:51
◼
►
hardware something this other chip they give them into have to add a chip anyway
[TS]
00:03:55
◼
►
for through the USB 3 controller and so who is making that controller chip for
[TS]
00:03:59
◼
►
them they could probably get that company to make a special trip just for
[TS]
00:04:03
◼
►
and I don't know like I'm not willing to rule out almost anything because Apple
[TS]
00:04:08
◼
►
has such incredible volumes and such leverage with with chip makers that data
[TS]
00:04:13
◼
►
marlys can make Intel do special things for them but at this point I could you
[TS]
00:04:16
◼
►
look at the IRS program everything who has been leaning on Intel so hard for
[TS]
00:04:20
◼
►
many many years to improve their GPUs
[TS]
00:04:24
◼
►
I would attribute a lot of Intel's recent GB you focus on the things that
[TS]
00:04:29
◼
►
Apple said that it needs from them and his influence their multi-year up they
[TS]
00:04:32
◼
►
don't get it exclusively everybody gets it but that kind of focus and the fact
[TS]
00:04:36
◼
►
that you know these chip shop and apples machines I would assume there's a lot of
[TS]
00:04:40
◼
►
influence there in terms of what Intel decides to make so we also had some
[TS]
00:04:47
◼
►
feedback about from Tom holiday he had said that the rumor twelve-inch lack of
[TS]
00:04:54
◼
►
Thunderbolt sorrows me the MacBook Air + 27 inch Thunderbolt Display
[TS]
00:04:58
◼
►
configuration allows sessile components I've never heard that word that's a wrap
[TS]
00:05:04
◼
►
and I thought was a typo for several it's not a word that's a safety word of
[TS]
00:05:10
◼
►
an organism for example in trying to call in one place or in mobile got you
[TS]
00:05:16
◼
►
covered I learned that word as a description of my friends cat when I was
[TS]
00:05:20
◼
►
in high school there was the SATs word association and candaces ok so the
[TS]
00:05:28
◼
►
medicare plus 27 inch display configuration allows us all components
[TS]
00:05:32
◼
►
like external hard drive scanners and printers and a 27 inch display to be set
[TS]
00:05:36
◼
►
up for the desktop while the MacBook routines portability i put this in the
[TS]
00:05:40
◼
►
notes because we talked about this in the past shows but that all these things
[TS]
00:05:47
◼
►
that you get out of standard both in terms of having multiple devices going
[TS]
00:05:50
◼
►
through one particular chain
[TS]
00:05:52
◼
►
you could approximate them you get you get the display you get the USB you have
[TS]
00:05:58
◼
►
a USB type of thing you can connect you know you could
[TS]
00:06:02
◼
►
hard drives through USB and I'm gonna be may be as nice as fanciest under about
[TS]
00:06:07
◼
►
this but the question that I had just brought to mind is to this meaning of
[TS]
00:06:12
◼
►
Apple comes out with this thing in your thunder bolt is off most of the machines
[TS]
00:06:15
◼
►
and everything is usb3
[TS]
00:06:17
◼
►
ever revise their stupid monitors does the next equivalent of the Thunderbolt
[TS]
00:06:22
◼
►
Display try to replace the Thunderbolt Display with one that connects just
[TS]
00:06:28
◼
►
three USB or is that not something they're interested in any more because I
[TS]
00:06:32
◼
►
use the same arrangement like you have a portable machine you plug one cable into
[TS]
00:06:35
◼
►
it and then you have all the other ports don't sit on the laptop and it's really
[TS]
00:06:39
◼
►
nice arrangement that will go away with this unless Apple comes out with a new
[TS]
00:06:43
◼
►
display that's like their USB hub display where you know the the extra a
[TS]
00:06:48
◼
►
modest one cable you plug it in and you get a USB however you can put up all
[TS]
00:06:52
◼
►
your hard drives and everything and you also get the display obviously no cable
[TS]
00:06:55
◼
►
and I would certainly hope that they would because I have lost it after the
[TS]
00:07:00
◼
►
Thunderbolt Display since it was a thing like two or three years now right but
[TS]
00:07:05
◼
►
anyway I've wanted one so badly but I'm Way too cheap to buy one and I would
[TS]
00:07:09
◼
►
hope that they would still do this kind of a set up but I am extremely skeptical
[TS]
00:07:14
◼
►
that they would do this kind of a setup because Apple just i mean when is Apple
[TS]
00:07:18
◼
►
ever really believed in in a docking station there was that one word like the
[TS]
00:07:21
◼
►
the whole entire folded up laptop slid into a dime steven hack it is furious
[TS]
00:07:26
◼
►
right now I don't remember the name of 20 doc thank you but I mean other than
[TS]
00:07:30
◼
►
that we're talking seasons not really a thing which is actually kind of
[TS]
00:07:33
◼
►
frustrating to me because I work in an office full of Dell's where they all
[TS]
00:07:36
◼
►
have these docking stations which are aesthetically hideous but functionally
[TS]
00:07:40
◼
►
awesome and I kind of wish that my Mac would do something so hard but yeah i i
[TS]
00:07:46
◼
►
and I don't see them really putting too much effort into that well I mean the
[TS]
00:07:50
◼
►
answer to that is those like bucket and motorboat docks things but nobody really
[TS]
00:07:54
◼
►
buys those far as I can tell they're so expensive
[TS]
00:07:57
◼
►
200 bucks down from 300 but still it's dole out but still like
[TS]
00:08:02
◼
►
I think if this was a direction Apple's going with all of their laptops they
[TS]
00:08:08
◼
►
might be concerned with things like this but for this one model I don't think we
[TS]
00:08:12
◼
►
need to read too much into it again and again assuming it's all correct with
[TS]
00:08:16
◼
►
these rumors but I don't read too much into it because you guys are all talking
[TS]
00:08:21
◼
►
about from the perspective of people who use laptops much of the time or most of
[TS]
00:08:25
◼
►
the time as desktops with a bunch of stuff put into them and and have these
[TS]
00:08:28
◼
►
these heavy external needs I think it's I think it's a good idea for most of
[TS]
00:08:34
◼
►
Apple's laptops to cater to that because that is probably how most laptops that
[TS]
00:08:37
◼
►
are soldier actually used especially with power user to defend and might have
[TS]
00:08:42
◼
►
an extra monitor stuff but I think there is nothing wrong with Apple having a
[TS]
00:08:47
◼
►
model in the lineup that does not cater to being plugged into stuff all the time
[TS]
00:08:52
◼
►
that that won't won't be good at that I mean the original MacBook Air was awful
[TS]
00:08:56
◼
►
about that the newer and newer ones only got better because of Thunderbolt I
[TS]
00:09:01
◼
►
think there is nothing there's nothing saying that Apple needs to solve the
[TS]
00:09:06
◼
►
problem of lots of good external bandwidth or or external Porsche Riley
[TS]
00:09:10
◼
►
that with this model of MacBook I think they could be just fine with this one
[TS]
00:09:14
◼
►
mostly mostly made to be portable to not be used while plugged into my stuff most
[TS]
00:09:19
◼
►
of the time you know I think you might be onto something there because now that
[TS]
00:09:23
◼
►
I'm thinking about my own example of work and docking stations I think a lot
[TS]
00:09:27
◼
►
of the reason that we have the docking stations everywhere in dual monitors
[TS]
00:09:31
◼
►
everywhere is just because it's nice to have it but for non developers my
[TS]
00:09:36
◼
►
company that I work for is probably half business consultants in half
[TS]
00:09:42
◼
►
technical consultants like myself for the for the business folks I think
[TS]
00:09:46
◼
►
they'd like having a second monitor but I i would guess that most of them would
[TS]
00:09:50
◼
►
tell you will you know if it went away whatever in so if I think about it
[TS]
00:09:55
◼
►
typically they're not plug in an external hard drive typically they're
[TS]
00:09:58
◼
►
not plugging in Ethernet typically they they're not plug in an external monitor
[TS]
00:10:02
◼
►
and just happens to be sitting there so generally speaking a lot of these folks
[TS]
00:10:06
◼
►
all they plug in his power to your point Marco and that's it in so what it really
[TS]
00:10:11
◼
►
this hyper portable computer only can take power in one other thing maybe not
[TS]
00:10:16
◼
►
you know that this MacBook Air two things about it like potentially can't
[TS]
00:10:22
◼
►
they just have one mile on line one I think the rumor maybe not this specific
[TS]
00:10:26
◼
►
Aurora talking about the 925 macklin but for the past few years it was like the
[TS]
00:10:29
◼
►
1130 going later would just be replaced by a single 12 if that ends up being in
[TS]
00:10:34
◼
►
the case it's fine for them to have one model they would be like this but if
[TS]
00:10:38
◼
►
you're replacing two models with it it seems weird that you know to the people
[TS]
00:10:42
◼
►
who wanted something ultraportable and you don't care about the ports 11 inch
[TS]
00:10:45
◼
►
make sense and for the people want a bigger sort of more full size laptop of
[TS]
00:10:49
◼
►
their teenage but if your place them both with the 12 it's kind of weird for
[TS]
00:10:52
◼
►
it to say that all you you can use this one like you like to revert to the
[TS]
00:10:56
◼
►
original MacBook Air but there is an advantage to not using thunderbolt and
[TS]
00:11:02
◼
►
it has to do with the annoying nature of thunder bolt size we have a wonderful
[TS]
00:11:06
◼
►
display here and a MacBook Air and it's got the little little squid type cable
[TS]
00:11:12
◼
►
coming out the end of it where it's got the MagSafe power thing to power your
[TS]
00:11:16
◼
►
laptop from the monitor and it also has the Thunderbolt cable and part of it is
[TS]
00:11:21
◼
►
that they made the little squid tentacles too short so there because
[TS]
00:11:25
◼
►
they're on opposite sides of the MacBook Air yet to put the Thunderbolt on the
[TS]
00:11:28
◼
►
left side facing you and then the power under whatever the opposite wall on the
[TS]
00:11:33
◼
►
right and the terrible connected because it has a chip in the connector itself it
[TS]
00:11:39
◼
►
sticks out like an interim the computer with this big you know inflexible
[TS]
00:11:44
◼
►
the hard plastic part of the connector
[TS]
00:11:46
◼
►
and it's just not it's not great like the cables have sharp angles and it
[TS]
00:11:52
◼
►
makes the thing wider it's it's not nice looking with the USB thing even though
[TS]
00:11:56
◼
►
it can't do all the things that Thunderbolt can do one the cable won't
[TS]
00:12:01
◼
►
have a giant inch long hard plastic connector thing yet but it could be a
[TS]
00:12:05
◼
►
much smaller more flexible thing and to it they combine the power with it
[TS]
00:12:10
◼
►
you also need to have the split squad thing where you have the magazine on one
[TS]
00:12:13
◼
►
side and you know you were literally be able to plug in just one cable said
[TS]
00:12:17
◼
►
right now it's one cable but it splits into it then and that spending is kind
[TS]
00:12:21
◼
►
of annoying every time you take it apart you know all the things out from each
[TS]
00:12:25
◼
►
other and then ate slides behind that they've just have one little cable that
[TS]
00:12:28
◼
►
was a USB cable I would be easier to sort of plug and unplug and I'm
[TS]
00:12:32
◼
►
generally and the doc because of the whole docking procedure being awkward
[TS]
00:12:36
◼
►
I'd much rather just put down the desk and plug in one small cable yeah I agree
[TS]

the world of time tracking out there I i'm only been a consultant briefly so I
[TS]
00:13:49
◼

don't know much about it is this is a problem is a challenge it it's a

challenge if you're doing more than one thing at once I'm lucky enough that

get some gmail is down in order in by did that by writing a really really

crappy time tracking up and this is so much better than that and it's certainly

00:14:31

00:16:10

would be to having a big awardees sort of you know metal thing that you place

on top of it like space is already at a premium and I'm not sure where you would

put that and then who wants to have a bunch of connectors with a big circle

thing I'm not even sure that I work with the watch another thing is having up

chargers are but like it could be done but the problem pads have is if you

still need something to plug in because you've got a pad in the place where you

put it in your home but like when you travel do you want to travel the big pad

would be nice some of the shower message but why would the paddock to be big well

there was a hint it like we could do wireless power because once they have

inductive charging wireless power all those things have not made that

breakthrough is it because they just haven't been done right or is it because

the thing they're trying to replace is not as annoying as people think it is

don't know but I would love to see one of these things I've never used any of

faced with her she would now it's it's like a Western game while gunmen some of

00:20:55
◼

the things I can tell that's not why I think everyone who's searching for all
[TS]
00:21:06
◼

these crazy complex systems of charging this theoretical permit laptop I think
[TS]
00:21:11
◼
►
you know john is a minute ago like almost all of these even if they worked
[TS]
00:21:15
◼
►
would probably be more annoying or have a big downside in practice the fact is
[TS]
00:21:20
◼
►
if it still has any ports at all then it's worth just charging it with a cable
[TS]
00:21:25
◼
►
because that's going to be better no matter what can a cable that is that's
[TS]
00:21:29
◼
►
going to be better than any other kind of weird induction or wireless or you
[TS]
00:21:33
◼

know Matt induction or clip on induction kind of seems like it it's just none of
[TS]
00:21:37
◼

those things if you actually think about what it would be like to
[TS]
00:21:40
◼
►
use them in practice in real life I just don't think any of those things would be
[TS]
00:21:44
◼
►
overall less annoying and and better than just a decent cable and they are
[TS]
00:21:48
◼
►
you have you seen cables MagSafe is pretty good
[TS]
00:21:51
◼
►
like there's there's nothing wrong with MagSafe and if they end up using the USB
[TS]
00:21:55
◼
►
power consumption power thing to do that that's probably going to be perfectly
[TS]
00:21:58
◼
►
fine to it's probably not a big deal
[TS]
00:22:01
◼
►
the only reason to watch has to do it really is because the watch is water
[TS]
00:22:05
◼

sealed so the watch has no openings so they had to do some kind of other system
[TS]
00:22:11
◼

besides a cable that plugs in and it clicked onto this giant is the backplate
[TS]
00:22:17
◼

safire's a ceramic or something it's something that's not meddle because if

you if you would clip with MagSafe

00:22:23

giant metal disc onto a metal laptop it was scratched the hell out of it just
[TS]
00:22:28
◼

like the iPad 3 Smart Cover deputies mark over the middle and you know so all
[TS]
00:22:34
◼

these things are like they're they're searching for solutions to what really
[TS]
00:22:38
◼

isn't that big of a problem which is a laptop that any ports at all can still
[TS]
00:22:41
◼

have a power plug and that'll be fine you know why I will admit I like MagSafe
[TS]
00:22:50

one better than MagSafe to MagSafe 2 comes out accidentally more easily in

00:22:55
◼

the in the vertical direction when pressed but it's not a nap that's my
[TS]
00:23:01
◼

only problem with it I'm a little bit I think the weaknesses of MagSafe both
[TS]
00:23:07
◼

version is the time that all contacts i've seen a lot of pictures of and
[TS]
00:23:14
◼

stories about MagSafe things that somehow you've got a misaligned or
[TS]
00:23:19
◼

something waged in there is something cause the short inside that little tiny
[TS]
00:23:22

area because it is everything is so fine in like there's even one little iron
[TS]
00:23:26
◼

filings from silly kids tied up load in over there and you plug it in and fries
[TS]
00:23:30
◼

the thing and it would be nice if there wasn't that if it was more resistant to
[TS]
00:23:35
◼

stuff I'm not sure what you would replace it with them because I think the
[TS]
00:23:38
◼

tiny USB cables probably have the same problem maybe
[TS]
00:23:41
◼
►
but I agree that make safe to is worse than one but I'm not sure with the with
[TS]
00:23:47
◼
►
the shrinking sizes not sure how what you can do to make safe to make it
[TS]
00:23:53
◼
►
better also making it smaller whereas something that plugs een you know where
[TS]
00:24:00
◼
►
does if the USB 3 connector that tiny little one does that come out just as
[TS]
00:24:06
◼
►
easily as MagSafe when you trip over the cable or does it not like wait what size
[TS]
00:24:10
◼
►
to start becoming like this is just as good as MagSafe in terms of trip
[TS]
00:24:13
◼

resistance and I don't know until someone buys one of these things or by
[TS]
00:24:17
◼

some other USB three devices are stripping out can we move on to any
[TS]
00:24:23
◼

other top heck yes we have corrections for you and John with regard to
[TS]
00:24:28
◼
►
reliability probability I'm like really corrections because both of us tried so
[TS]
00:24:36
◼
►
hard to stay away from the math part like we didn't want to talk about the
[TS]
00:24:38
◼
►
math we just hand wave didn't get the hand waving because we use mathematical
[TS]
00:24:42
◼
►
words about like addition to you know that that was enough to trigger the math
[TS]
00:24:48
◼
►
people to come to us I think we all knew we were gonna be wrong we didn't know
[TS]
00:24:51
◼
►
the math is to possible actually was a good email about it too which
[TS]
00:24:57
◼
►
unfortunately is too long complicated to explain but Dr Dre has been explaining
[TS]
00:25:02
◼
►
the actual math of the probability stuff Karen Healey has been explaining what he
[TS]
00:25:07
◼
►
thinks he probably meant that I think he's closer if I had to be summarized
[TS]
00:25:10
◼
►
this discussion I would I would say their two-point all both not involving
[TS]
00:25:13
◼
►
that is the idea that if you have something we're certainly liability and
[TS]
00:25:23
◼
►
you add a second thing even if the reliability is just as good as the first
[TS]
00:25:26
◼
►
thing if your entire system to be successful they both have to work even
[TS]
00:25:30
◼
►
decrease the reliability of the system even though the thing you added is just
[TS]
00:25:33
◼
►
as reliable the other thing
[TS]
00:25:35
◼
►
so that was one counter intuitive thing that people think it's like well if I
[TS]
00:25:39
◼
►
had the second thing is just a reliable the first thing the total liabilities
[TS]
00:25:42
◼
►
are saying no it's worse so that's one and the second thing is the sort of this
[TS]
00:25:47
◼
►
place is probably wrong but I'll say it anyway network effect when you add more
[TS]
00:25:52
◼
►
and more devices yet three devices and you had one before you don't get three
[TS]
00:25:56
◼
►
times the number of things you can do because if they all interact with each
[TS]
00:25:59
◼
►
the number of possible connections and interactions between them goes up much
[TS]
00:26:03
◼
►
faster than linearly and that sort of multiplicative affected marco was first
[TS]
00:26:07
◼
►
one to make a problem right added that by adding you may add one device to
[TS]
00:26:13
◼
►
another one you don't just get three times the number of things you can do
[TS]
00:26:16
◼
►
you might try tomorrow night if they all interact with each other and so the
[TS]
00:26:19
◼
►
first point combined with the second means that the sort of intuitive sense
[TS]
00:26:25
◼
►
that when I have a computer there's one thing and I have a computer and a phone
[TS]
00:26:28
◼
►
that's two things and it should be roughly like you know it should first
[TS]
00:26:34
◼
►
people to think that the phone is just a reliable to use the computer my total
[TS]
00:26:37
◼
►
system reliability is not gone down but it totally has because if they both died
[TS]
00:26:42
◼
►
4 features that cross between them or syncing issues that were never too much
[TS]
00:26:45
◼
►
worse than just having a boner just having better and the second thing is as
[TS]
00:26:49
◼
►
you get even more devices the number of connections between them possible
[TS]
00:26:52
◼
►
interaction goes way up goes up faster than linearly especially if they all
[TS]
00:26:57
◼
►
interact with each other especially if some features on one aren't even
[TS]
00:26:59
◼
►
unlocked until you get the second one i contenuti is not even in your world with
[TS]
00:27:03
◼
►
you have two devices such as a whole new feature set that wasn't even there
[TS]
00:27:06
◼
►
before the blooms on both of them and then the interaction between them and
[TS]
00:27:09
◼
►
then three of them in the cloud and everything like that that's more or less
[TS]
00:27:12
◼
►
what we're getting it you want to get into the nitty-gritty details on the map
[TS]
00:27:14
◼
►
doctoring is a good coverage there and the person who sent us an email
[TS]
00:27:18
◼
►
said that even though things do get worse and you had something to a system
[TS]
00:27:21
◼
►
if most most things are generally reliable like their reliability is 99%
[TS]
00:27:27
◼
►
or whatever doesn't get that bad as the affected may be exaggerating the effects
[TS]
00:27:31
◼

because it now like 50% reliability yes that would that you really feel like
[TS]
00:27:35
◼

most things are very reliable and another one to the system of the same
[TS]
00:27:39
◼

reliability is not gonna pull down your overall reliability that much that's why
[TS]
00:27:43

I think Erin's post about
[TS]
00:27:44

the number of possible interactions between the different devices going up

stylus which is something different so what are we gonna do a stylist right to

use a stylus know why the stylist
[TS]
00:31:07
◼
►
you have to give them and put them away he loses nobody wants a stylist so let's
[TS]
00:31:13
◼

not use the stylus if you see a stylist then what is it they were to fail if you
[TS]
00:31:18

need a stylist you've already failed the point is one of the more reliable supply
[TS]

chain I guess analysts say because i dont no hito term but anyway

00:31:31

has said that the next iPad to the 30 13 inch iPad will have an optional stylist
[TS]
00:31:38
◼

and I don't think that most of us would have paid too much attention to this or
[TS]
00:31:43
◼
►
certainly I wouldn't have accepted this particular individual has an
[TS]
00:31:47
◼

unbelievably good track record which makes me think ok maybe this is real so
[TS]
00:31:51
◼

i cant i dont own any stylized styluses for my iPad I've never gotten any of

00:31:58

them really had a particular need forum I've tried the paper pencil
[TS]
00:32:03

I got one of those do it sits in a drawer it seemed cool I guess but I i'm
[TS]
00:32:08
◼

just not one that needs a stylist so I don't think I can really comment
[TS]
00:32:13
◼
►
intelligently on this it sounds like Marco you have a bunch and has he spoken
[TS]
00:32:17
◼
►
family of the cosmonaut the past rate yeah and of all the one they have that
[TS]
00:32:21
◼
►
my favorite one for general use of the if you if you use paper a lot like the a
[TS]
00:32:27
◼
►
paper by 43 if you use that Apple up for artistic purposes and sketching purposes
[TS]
00:32:33
◼
►
their stylist offer some features in that app that that other ones won't have
[TS]
00:32:36
◼
►
the paper pencil for general use around the iPad I don't think the pencil is
[TS]
00:32:41
◼
►
better than nothing about the same if not a little bit of a weird shape and
[TS]
00:32:46
◼
►
it's the thing is the reason why it's a big deal of Apple makes one of these is
[TS]
00:32:51
◼
►
because of Apple makes a stylist it's not going to be a $25 capacitive foam
[TS]
00:32:57
◼
►
tip stick the way all the other ones are it's going to be integrated with the
[TS]
00:33:02
◼
►
with the OS and hardware so right now the reason why this the style I on the
[TS]
00:33:08
◼
►
market generally all suck or or that they've they've basically hit a wall
[TS]
00:33:13
◼
►
that they can't get any better than this is because to get better than that
[TS]
00:33:17
◼
►
that you need system wide recognition of Bluetooth and more precision on the tip
[TS]
00:33:24
◼
►
and so certainly like the the paper but 53 stylist I think that is pretty sure
[TS]
00:33:29
◼
►
it is believed that some kind of are you must be so that is Bluetooth but it only
[TS]
00:33:33
◼
►
works in their app and it's still under music can be because you need is like
[TS]
00:33:38
◼
►
you the app has to try to do things like reject part deciding upon touching the
[TS]
00:33:44
◼
►
screen not count that as a touch and things like that and and the the
[TS]
00:33:48
◼
►
low-level OS frameworks for touch recognition have way more recognition
[TS]
00:33:52
◼
►
and win more data to work with than what exposed to absent a public API eyes and
[TS]
00:33:59
◼
►
so if Apple did this at the system level they cannot only use Bluetooth or some
[TS]
00:34:02
◼
►
other kind of short-range Aref thing people do but they could not only use
[TS]
00:34:06
◼
►
Bluetooth that they could do it
[TS]
00:34:08
◼
►
system wide so it would work in every app with all the sensitivity and
[TS]
00:34:12
◼
►
precision and it would be it would be able to tie in with the touch
[TS]
00:34:16
◼
►
recognition and and do like you know better touch rejection of that none of
[TS]
00:34:21
◼
►
which their party styles can do really very well or or everywhere right now so
[TS]
00:34:26
◼
►
that's why it's a big deal
[TS]
00:34:27
◼
►
Apple makes one day might even if this if this is going to be a big deal they
[TS]
00:34:33
◼
►
might even switch to a different kind of texture and I believe it's a resistive
[TS]
00:34:37
◼
►
touchscreen our least be able to put a layer like that I'd like what the the
[TS]
00:34:41
◼
►
Wacom Cintiq soyuz which is what the Microsoft Surface pro you at least the
[TS]
00:34:46
◼
►
23 a ton of the original one did I think it did but the surface Pro uses this to
[TS]
00:34:50
◼
►
where it's basically it's like a pen tablet integrated into the screen and
[TS]
00:34:55
◼
►
artists love these things they they are you know if if you're if you're a sketch
[TS]
00:35:01
◼
►
artist or illustrated illustration artists they would use a pan for your
[TS]
00:35:05
◼
►
free art form these things are very very widely recognized very very widely
[TS]
00:35:09
◼
►
appreciated and and the iPad really doesn't do a very good job at that
[TS]
00:35:13
◼
►
because of the imprecision and limitations of the styles are available
[TS]
00:35:16
◼
►
now so I think if they did this
[TS]
00:35:20
◼
►
and I think they probably should do this I think there there's there's a market
[TS]
00:35:24
◼
►
for it it would make sense to limited to only one model and make it like a
[TS]
00:35:28
◼
►
high-end thing that would make sense just like Microsoft has done really and
[TS]
00:35:33
◼
►
then just like black ops done an about it and I know that wrong I don't know
[TS]
00:35:37
◼
►
what the bride usually there's a Wacom gets more fun in the city F&P but i i
[TS]
00:35:44
◼
►
think it's a very good idea well I don't know if they actually do it but I think
[TS]
00:35:47
◼
►
it's a very good idea I think it's inevitable because I mean for the same
[TS]
00:35:51
◼
►
reason I think the bigger iPad is inevitable and multitasking multi-window
[TS]
00:35:54
◼
►
in the iPad is inevitable like that that this platform has to expand to do more
[TS]
00:35:59
◼
►
things because its people like it better than the old platform and get them
[TS]
00:36:04
◼
►
expand slowly and make another loses much of the advantages and diversified
[TS]
00:36:07
◼
►
line so a particular product is it and what has to happen because the amazing
[TS]
00:36:13
◼
►
number of artificial fingers for sale for iOS devices just goes to show that
[TS]
00:36:18
◼
►
there is a market demand for this the same way that people wanted bigger
[TS]
00:36:20
◼
►
phones right and that's why you know you don't like but that's why all the
[TS]
00:36:24
◼
►
existing ones that stink because all they are is artificial thinkers like all
[TS]
00:36:30
◼
►
urs simulating a finger and the OS is made four fingers and simulated fingers
[TS]
00:36:35
◼
►
are real fingers of racist about your fingers in the big squishy things there
[TS]
00:36:38
◼
►
in precise about what comes out with a stylist not only that a deal Bluetooth I
[TS]
00:36:42
◼
►
think they have to do something different with the screen like I said if
[TS]
00:36:46
◼
►
you look at the huge number of patents that come out of Apple Apple patents
[TS]
00:36:50
◼
►
million things I mean they're gonna make anything but I think in the case of the
[TS]
00:36:53
◼
►
stylist even if we didn't see any patents I would think that a stylist is
[TS]
00:36:56
◼
►
going to eventually come on we get to that point and a plus tons of patents
[TS]
00:37:00
◼
►
related to sales is your style or whatever the plural that was caused it
[TS]
00:37:04
◼
►
to be awkward for the whole time we talk about this please if you took Latin high
[TS]
00:37:10
◼
►
school don't write and I don't we don't care anyway I also took last night why
[TS]
00:37:15
◼
►
would they have all those pants usually their patents are about like well user
[TS]
00:37:19
◼
►
interface stuff like maybe they tried this user interface and it wasn't great
[TS]
00:37:21
◼
►
they did ship but they gonna patty pan everything you plan anything you do but
[TS]
00:37:26
◼
►
the number of styles related patents that have come out of Apple over the
[TS]
00:37:29
◼
►
years shows that they've had people doing stuff related to styluses our
[TS]
00:37:33
◼
►
style I ever saw Hong
[TS]
00:37:35
◼
►
like why the still die while those guys still doing that it's not like they just
[TS]
00:37:38
◼
►
try this experiment 1 year after he have two year people are into an elaborate
[TS]
00:37:43
◼
►
his Elastix doing stuff and maybe they hate all those maybe everything they
[TS]
00:37:46
◼
►
found something that not going to make but someone is being employed at Apple
[TS]
00:37:51
◼
►
to do stuff that produces things that are patentable related to drawing with a
[TS]
00:37:55
◼
►
stick on a screen so it seems to me that that is definitely something that
[TS]
00:38:01
◼
►
they're working on not just once but over the years and they're eventually
[TS]
00:38:05
◼
►
going to get something they like maybe not this year maybe next year but I
[TS]
00:38:09
◼
►
think it's inevitable and if they don't they don't hurry up like the surface
[TS]
00:38:13
◼
►
getting of the you know the cachet with the artists because finally it was a
[TS]
00:38:15
◼
►
portable tablet type thing that had the hardware support for a decent stylist
[TS]
00:38:21
◼
►
interface if Apple doesn't do it soon enough eventually is going to be like
[TS]
00:38:24
◼
►
well every artist knows that if you if you want to do are on the road you have
[TS]
00:38:28
◼
►
to get america service because you're not going to use the classic lingered at
[TS]
00:38:31
◼
►
scribbled on iPad right so I would say now is the correct time for them to do
[TS]
00:38:36
◼
►
something I hope they do something that is at least as good as what the service
[TS]
00:38:40
◼
►
does and I'm really hoping that at least one or two of those weird patents or
[TS]
00:38:43
◼
►
something we haven't seen before because pants take a long time to come out
[TS]
00:38:46
◼
►
something they haven't even seen its patent-pending will provide interfaces
[TS]
00:38:52
◼
►
even better now the kind of these scary ghost floating around this has nothing
[TS]
00:38:57
◼
►
to do a drawing pretty pictures on your iPad has everything to do with the other
[TS]
00:39:01
◼
►
thing that you might do with a pen or pencil already implemented a flat
[TS]
00:39:04
◼
►
surface which is write letters and that's you know has been characterized
[TS]
00:39:09
◼
►
as an a/b and Apple has big scary I grackles all over this topic but Satan
[TS]
00:39:16
◼
►
thing is once you once you ship once you make a stylist and you're able to you
[TS]
00:39:21
◼
►
know do find out with it or whatever
[TS]
00:39:23
◼
►
are you going to say no you can't write notes that will translate into text i
[TS]
00:39:29
◼
►
mean that's one way to get out of it just to avoid entirely say it's just
[TS]
00:39:32
◼
►
hard right now if you could write words but it was a state like we won't
[TS]
00:39:35
◼
►
translate into text but but I think there's no way for them to avoid having
[TS]
00:39:40
◼
►
to resurrect and finally defeat the ghosts of the news by doing handwriting
[TS]
00:39:46
◼
►
recognition that is not embarrassing and I think the technology is there to do it
[TS]
00:39:49
◼
►
and I think they have to support system wide a nice way and I think very few
[TS]
00:39:55
◼
►
people use the biggest who likes writing with a pen and pencil everyone who likes
[TS]
00:39:58
◼
►
riding you know just fine but I really really feel like I mean I don't like it
[TS]
00:40:03
◼
►
that much either but that's a pretty big group that does is that hit his thing in
[TS]
00:40:11
◼
►
what context are you going to use it I can imagine using it for things like
[TS]
00:40:15
◼
►
checking things off or scribbling a quick will know that bring up the
[TS]
00:40:20
◼
►
keyboard to type things out but I can't imagine someone using it to do text
[TS]
00:40:25
◼
►
messages or write a long email or something and maybe that's just me maybe
[TS]
00:40:28
◼
►
maybe just don't see that anymore but like if you're gonna ride along unless
[TS]
00:40:33
◼
►
it does because people are really fast with those who have you liked it right
[TS]
00:40:36
◼
►
hand and running unless they tackle Chris if people are jerks
[TS]
00:40:41
◼
►
just do a long do i how long handwritten letter increase of having translate that
[TS]
00:40:45
◼
►
into text for you but having really good stylist support in this day and age
[TS]
00:40:51
◼
►
you've let them write in cursive and just send it as a giant image like you
[TS]
00:40:56
◼
►
can do that now you couldn't it wasn't an option before you had to translate
[TS]
00:40:58
◼
►
the text I think now this beautiful handwriting you know that people have
[TS]
00:41:03
◼
►
you know they want to convey their
[TS]
00:41:05
◼
►
you want to see someone wearing one I just transferred as you know vector or
[TS]
00:41:09
◼
►
bitmap or something like that why do you have to turn it takes I guess after
[TS]
00:41:12
◼
►
injection make it searchable and so on and so forth and I don't know where they
[TS]
00:41:17
◼
►
go this but I think the the Art angle as a slam-dunk they're gonna do it going to
[TS]
00:41:21
◼
►
be good I hope it doesn't happen this year they better hurry up because
[TS]
00:41:25
◼
►
everyone else is doing it
[TS]
00:41:26
◼
►
and then the handwriting thing I have no idea what they're gonna do when I see
[TS]
00:41:29
◼
►
all sorts of crazy pitfalls there I think the opportunity as its big I would
[TS]
00:41:35
◼
►
be surprised if anybody at apple with with the ability to make such a decision
[TS]
00:41:39
◼
►
would would restrict or stay away from these areas because of the noon I think
[TS]
00:41:45
◼
►
they just don't care anymore that was so long that was ancient history and the
[TS]
00:41:48
◼
►
public most of the public doesn't even remember the news and doesn't even care
[TS]
00:41:52
◼
►
about and that's they way because of the Newton but because it's still hard
[TS]
00:41:56
◼
►
problem like look at like the severest does it now Microsoft does it and they
[TS]
00:41:59
◼
►
do obviously better than the noon right away more computing power and they've
[TS]
00:42:02
◼
►
been doing it for like a decade it might have been doing it for a long time and
[TS]
00:42:06
◼
►
they end its and their version is pretty good it's good but it's like here's the
[TS]
00:42:11
◼
►
thing with its not so people don't need to remember the news just like it too
[TS]
00:42:14
◼
►
hard enough problem kind of like a lot of the stuff and fortunately we're not
[TS]
00:42:17
◼

gonna talk about this week but I don't think it is a time to watch it but you
[TS]
00:42:20
◼

know the windows 10 announcement and the holographic style or in the past the
[TS]
00:42:24
◼

connector whatever things that are that was real things that really hard
[TS]
00:42:28
◼
►
problems that make a really awesome tech demo to make you feel like you're living
[TS]
00:42:32
◼
►
in the future but if they don't deliver on it like if they if they don't cross
[TS]
00:42:36
◼

the threshold I kind of like have Siri didn't cross the threshold in the
[TS]
00:42:39
◼

beginning of like well demos well but doesn't quite work for you enough that
[TS]
00:42:43
◼

I'm just gonna give up on it and that came up again because they are jacket
[TS]
00:42:46

sort of Apple married sites this past week or so by the way about that so i
[TS]
00:42:55
◼

sorry for so I I have not used here in a long time because it just never works
[TS]
00:43:02
◼

for me like the reliability was so bad for so long ago stopped trying but I
[TS]
00:43:05

would say I would say complete command would sit there and has been for 20
[TS]
00:43:09
◼

[TS]
00:53:42
◼
►
wire cutter some very interesting gadgets and stuff from CVS I'm really
[TS]
00:53:48

television and the technologies related that are slowly steadily marching
[TS]
00:54:29

forward for case we don't probably care too much about because of the size of
[TS]
00:54:32

the televisions be having to dismiss it from them it's probably not a factor but
[TS]
00:54:36

00:54:47

with this crazy this is not really a product demo tape thing from Dolby which
[TS]
00:54:51
◼

is like high dynamic range to be able to have darker darksome greater rights and
[TS]
00:54:56
◼

your television and that is something much more so than for K that you would
[TS]
00:55:01
◼
►
notice if you put a regular TV text along with this high dynamic range thing
[TS]
00:55:06
◼

you would be able to tell the difference in the same way that you the most people
[TS]
00:55:10

announcement related to that is this

don't want this to turn into a weird format war whatever if any of these
[TS]
00:55:30
◼

things that many of the sort of enhanced or k with high dynamic range that ever

00:56:17
◼

more excited about high dynamic range stuff and the color enhanced in a frame
[TS]
00:56:22
◼

rate enhancements for KTV than about the fork a resolution itself so I'm hoping
[TS]
00:56:28

without software guaranteed because you know free-trader makers have no idea
[TS]
00:58:06
◼
►
what to do when it comes to software
[TS]
00:58:07
◼
►
thus far the new TV makers the terrible but update that have a bug fixes and the
[TS]
00:58:13
◼
►
project self didn't start off very good and doesn't get any better so I'm not
[TS]
00:58:18
◼
►
writing anything new about that it's still true I wish it wasn't that CBS III
[TS]
00:58:25
◼
►
I'm not in the TV world but I totally agree with that statement in other areas
[TS]
00:58:30
◼
►
things have gotten off Kickstarter that have like this is another thermometer
[TS]
00:58:34
◼
►
that has an app on your phone to see the result since there is a way better than
[TS]
00:58:41
◼
►
actual display and a stupid thing you know the microphone interface I got for
[TS]
00:58:45
◼
►
a week and then returned it was burned away but like this thing that has this
[TS]
00:58:49
◼
►
the screen with just one button on it and everything else controlled by
[TS]
00:58:53
◼
►
software and of course the software is terrible so I get this I replace it with
[TS]
00:58:57
◼
►
this box it is covered in knobs and buttons and its way better and it will
[TS]
00:59:01
◼
►
last way longer I mean just I hate software so much and I'm a software
[TS]
00:59:06
◼
►
developer and I hate software I mean its use software intelligently use offer
[TS]
00:59:12
◼
►
when it really does benefit things but that is not everywhere and that is not
[TS]
00:59:17
◼
►
always necessary and is often better without it and the worst part is like
[TS]
00:59:20
◼
►
even in places where you could totally see the benefit like there are things
[TS]
00:59:24
◼
►
that have had sort of you know the visual interfaces for a long time like
[TS]
00:59:28
◼
►
for example thermostats or something like that's a perfect place for software
[TS]
00:59:31
◼
►
because having a bunch a little buttons on a panel at the open up on this little
[TS]
00:59:35
◼
►
dinky screen you like boy if I could have a real software it is that would be
[TS]
00:59:39
◼
►
better and the nest approaches kind of tied up with also gonna make it program
[TS]
00:59:43
◼
►
or whatever but so many opportunities exist for something that we thought were
[TS]
00:59:47
◼
►
really is appropriate but awful software is worse then just right and when you
[TS]
00:59:54
◼
►
talk about things like this is actually not inappropriately off at this point
[TS]
00:59:59
◼
►
does it give me a mechanical device that works and the cars it is the best
[TS]
01:00:02
◼
►
example because like there are ample opportunities for good software to
[TS]
01:00:06
◼
►
improve the experience inside a car but they take this offer and put it where
[TS]
01:00:09
◼
►
it's not needed and then this offer that is there
[TS]
01:00:12
◼
►
usually pretty terrible and you know we all used cars and so we're all just kind
[TS]
01:00:16
◼
►
of suffering as companies that do not know how to make software I get
[TS]
01:00:20
◼
►
hopefully slowly learn to make software better I don't know if they're even
[TS]
01:00:24
◼
►
learning of the BMW key fob but the screen I like that is not an appropriate
[TS]
01:00:30
◼
►
place for software in your pocket you wanna field goal to feel the buttons are
[TS]
01:00:35
◼
►
you maybe don't touch it at all like yeah right
[TS]
01:00:41
◼
►
and speaking of software our friends are really something new this week
[TS]
01:00:47
◼
►
hijacked three indeed not pro though so forget it
[TS]
01:00:51
◼
►
budget means doesn't have the nobel boards on anymore
[TS]
01:00:55
◼
►
yeah exactly you'll get a job they were used to be called auto hijack pro and
[TS]
01:00:59
◼
►
with the version 3 they removed from the name because it was just like you know
[TS]
01:01:04
◼
►
like Netscape Navigator gold pearl gold we don't need the suffixes in the
[TS]
01:01:11
◼
►
modified audio hijacked and its version 3 and I have been fiddling with it I
[TS]
01:01:18
◼
►
have not used it to record a podcast yet I didn't have enough time today to get
[TS]
01:01:23
◼
►
my I don't know I guess workflow almost a session I think it's what they term
[TS]
01:01:29
◼
►
they use and have enough time to get my session squared away before we recorded
[TS]
01:01:33
◼
►
tonight but I'm hoping to the next week
[TS]
01:01:36
◼
►
be able to set it up so that every chords not only a copy of just by my but
[TS]
01:01:41
◼
►
also a copy of you guys as well and this will be super helpful for analog but
[TS]
01:01:46
◼
►
it's really really slick the way they've done the kind of work flowy interface
[TS]
01:01:51
◼
►
where you're dragging boxes around it it's it's again a very gentle way trying
[TS]
01:01:59
◼
►
to do very powerful things much like the workflow out that i've talked about
[TS]
01:02:02
◼
►
quite a few times both on my website in here on the show that's a very cool very
[TS]
01:02:07
◼
►
cool idea very well done and the thought of writing that you I scares the crap
[TS]
01:02:13
◼
►
outta me cause I'm a terrible UI developer as it is
[TS]
01:02:16
◼
►
and writing something that complex with like that kind of a dynamic layout just
[TS]
01:02:20
◼
►
scares the bejesus out of me but it's cool I wouldn't just served as gentle
[TS]
01:02:24
◼
►
and but by the way this is not a paid sponsorship saying this because we think
[TS]
01:02:27
◼
►
this after the meeting the reason I'm excited about this happens because it
[TS]
01:02:30
◼
►
takes an idea that bike concepts that have you know that have been related to
[TS]
01:02:35
◼
►
the audio for a long time and it's like these capabilities allies' kimberly's
[TS]
01:02:40
◼
►
marlys existed already in the previous versions of audio hijack or you could
[TS]
01:02:44
◼
►
have done yourselves with the idea of things the major renovation of this is
[TS]
01:02:47
◼
►
kind of like people are familiar with court composer is it lets you visually
[TS]
01:02:52
◼
►
design the flow of audio like if you were to die you know if you were to try
[TS]
01:02:56
◼
►
to explain to me what I need is a need to have the audio from this source going
[TS]
01:02:59
◼
►
to over here and needs it to recording to file over there but the mixed with
[TS]
01:03:03
◼
►
this one over here and have a volume adjustment go through this output device
[TS]
01:03:05
◼
►
and you would run an Afghan like boy how the hell making sure that you just take
[TS]
01:03:10
◼
►
that diagram and you make it in in this thing that blocks you can pop over for
[TS]
01:03:14
◼
►
sources of audio they have a little metre block which i think is genius
[TS]
01:03:18
◼
►
shows the the greatness of these approaches like what is the media blog
[TS]
01:03:21
◼
►
do lending let you know if you're clipping and and that source right and
[TS]
01:03:25
◼
►
you have a justice for different channels and volume things and you have
[TS]
01:03:28
◼
►
a recorder were you could put the track down and you can put multiple tracks
[TS]
01:03:31
◼
►
down into one recordings put them on two separate ones the interfaces the entire
[TS]
01:03:36
◼
►
thing is application capabilities were there and you could have used an old
[TS]
01:03:40
◼
►
version of Heidegger applications but take a look at the screen shot to
[TS]
01:03:43
◼
►
deceive you do anything related audio maybe you don't maybe it's just a bunch
[TS]
01:03:46
◼
►
of podcasters who care about the stuff but if you do anything related to audio
[TS]
01:03:49
◼
►
recording audio this one interface is one window like just a bunch of things
[TS]
01:03:54
◼
►
in common with lines lets anybody do things that previously almost nobody
[TS]
01:03:59
◼
►
could do because you have to understand like that some crazy arcane interface
[TS]
01:04:02
◼
►
and a bunch of weird vocabulary to like this is all visual vocabulary very
[TS]
01:04:06
◼
►
simple very straightforward up super impressed by this yeah it's a very need
[TS]
01:04:10
◼
►
up and hoping to get everything squared away so I can use it to record this next
[TS]
01:04:15
◼
►
week you should hold out because they really want to sponsor like it I could
[TS]
01:04:18
◼
►
sponsor me for them to just did and you were and you were on the bait if this
[TS]
01:04:24
◼
►
weren't you
[TS]
01:04:25
◼
►
yeah yeah I like it a lot it's what I like I said in a blog post to like in
[TS]
01:04:29
◼
►
audio is a pretty like dealing with audio and idaho like you need to record
[TS]
01:04:33
◼
►
this through this mixer combine it with this then be able to make this an record
[TS]
01:04:38
◼
►
over here and put this off and applying Eq in a compressor over here like doing
[TS]
01:04:43
◼
►
stuff like that can very quickly lead you into hardware complexity and and
[TS]
01:04:49
◼
►
just a Hello wires and cheap or expensive little boxes all over the
[TS]
01:04:54
◼
►
place and lots of like just boxes all over your desk and complexity and not
[TS]
01:04:58
◼
►
knowing where things are and and costs and this app is able to replace so much
[TS]
01:05:06
◼
►
complexity so much harder so many even like if you try to do a lot of these
[TS]
01:05:09
◼
►
these things in software there are a flick free open-source things out there
[TS]
01:05:14
◼
►
that will that you can do some of these things with or that you can combine in
[TS]
01:05:19
◼
►
certain ways to do some of these things and they're usually way harder to set up
[TS]
01:05:23
◼
►
and you have all these three different packages and one of the only made for
[TS]
01:05:26
◼
►
Linux and all this don't like it
[TS]
01:05:28
◼
►
bottlenecks and and frustrations limitations and challenges and setting
[TS]
01:05:33
◼
►
it all up so they have it all in one app is pretty amazing
[TS]
01:05:36
◼
►
this kind of makes me sad because like this is the kind of awesome utility that
[TS]
01:05:41
◼
►
we will never see on iOS and they can never be in the Mac App Store and those
[TS]
01:05:45
◼
►
things make me very sad I was gonna bring up is like the the innovation of
[TS]
01:05:51
◼
►
this out like this is exactly like the original good it's like previously I
[TS]
01:05:55
◼
►
could not do this with the computer becomes too complicated but now you make
[TS]
01:05:58
◼
►
all my files little pictures now I can actually range I don't know how to take
[TS]
01:06:02
◼
►
command the move files I can't keep you know like simple things like bombings
[TS]
01:06:05
◼
►
and once you made the files little pictures of people to drive around with
[TS]
01:06:08
◼
►
a mouse tell me they were able to do it you know we're gonna have actual audio
[TS]
01:06:13
◼
►
hardware with
[TS]
01:06:14
◼
►
XLR interfaces are all that stuff like this is not replacing a giant recording
[TS]
01:06:18
◼
►
studio for them but it seemed like you have a Mac that is capable of doing a
[TS]
01:06:21
◼
►
lot of stuff in software that you can also do a better job of a more fancy job
[TS]
01:06:27
◼
►
with hardware but maybe you don't want to buy thousands of dollars worth of
[TS]
01:06:30
◼
►
audio hardware and that marker said that is a whole other world of complexity
[TS]
01:06:33
◼
►
what if you just want to do something like I have a Mac everything here is
[TS]
01:06:37
◼
►
happening on the back I've got a Skype call I've got you know Google hangout
[TS]
01:06:41
◼
►
I've got the music playing I've got like why can't I i know i Mac is capable of
[TS]
01:06:46
◼
►
this it here is all the audio I can read it in a simple way using the input and
[TS]
01:06:50
◼
►
output drop out why can't I just do this one thing they want to do is not that
[TS]
01:06:53
◼
►
much more complicated so I would say this is like but I tweeted about it was
[TS]
01:06:57
◼
►
like if you don't have a big budget for hardware but you want to do something
[TS]
01:07:00
◼
►
like that market does but like planes music and making it a live stream stuff
[TS]
01:07:04
◼
►
like that like or you know on the income people worry just wanna play clips from
[TS]
01:07:08
◼
►
shows like lipson past episodes or drop in sound effects in like a game show Dec
[TS]
01:07:13
◼
►
thing you're not asking for much
[TS]
01:07:14
◼
►
it's pretty simple but like oh I can add stuff then but it will record my side
[TS]
01:07:18
◼
►
effects you just hear them over to Skype chatter the only place I get my sound
[TS]
01:07:21
◼
►
effects of the Skype chat or uploaded clip and the other people in the show on
[TS]
01:07:26
◼
►
here at but eventually it'll be in the final recording silly things like that
[TS]
01:07:29
◼
►
are limitations of the simplicity of the way we can mix audio here and providing
[TS]
01:07:34
◼
►
application that does that it's just such an incredible shame like this is
[TS]
01:07:37
◼
►
this is like the kind of innovative application do you expect from a great
[TS]
01:07:40
◼
►
Mac Developer right can't be on the net gaps can't be on iOS because of the way
[TS]
01:07:45
◼
►
it works is that you know I jacks the audio from other applications and I
[TS]
01:07:49
◼
►
understand like it doesn't have any kernel extensions or anything but it's
[TS]
01:07:52
◼
►
using you know it's getting into other processes and like you know grabbing
[TS]
01:07:56
◼
►
audio from them and I feel like it's my computer I there should be security
[TS]
01:08:01
◼
►
restrictions about that like oh do you want to hijack the application you know
[TS]
01:08:05
◼
►
confirmed that it's done have some sort of system-level thing that prevents like
[TS]
01:08:08
◼
►
I feel like this application could be on the Mac App Store if ever cared enough
[TS]
01:08:13
◼
►
about the functionality provides to you know to provide sort of the gateways of
[TS]
01:08:17
◼
►
like do you wanna give us a pack says that contacts the person said yes that
[TS]
01:08:21
◼
►
happens I guess the contact that's the only kind of barrier I think you need
[TS]
01:08:24
◼
►
just this kind of sad that you cannot buy the Mac App Store you have to buy
[TS]
01:08:31
◼
►
think we're good thanks a lot for three sponsors this week harvest Backblaze and
[TS]
01:08:37
◼
►
lynda.com and we will see you next week now the show they didn't even mean to
[TS]
01:08:46
◼
►
begin accidental accidental John
[TS]
01:08:58
◼
►
because it was accidental shown to be a gene markle
[TS]
01:09:41
◼
►
go it is not a few minutes
[TS]
01:09:50
◼
►
a few dollars a month ago it's not like it's no we're not talking thousands like
[TS]
01:09:55
◼
►
her already inexpensive compared to like Instapaper or Tumblr something that I
[TS]
01:10:01
◼
►
mean like if nothing a few hundred dollars a month is not nothing I mean
[TS]
01:10:05
◼
►
that's a car payment will be my last visit I was bending like five to seven
[TS]
01:10:08
◼
►
thousand dollars a month so it for this one like this is a lot smaller because
[TS]
01:10:12
◼
►
it's like you know $500 a month as opposed two thousand is it pretty good
[TS]
01:10:16
◼
►
bang for the buck the like how long did you spend be ready and go and then the
[TS]
01:10:20
◼
►
savings will be realized you know going forward you know it's it's a pretty you
[TS]
01:10:26
◼
►
got a pretty good return on the investment in the time you spent to go
[TS]
01:10:30
◼
►
and rewrite this thing yeah I mean and ultimately I'm going to spend a little
[TS]
01:10:34
◼
►
more time on it because the current model have the couple of little problems
[TS]
01:10:37
◼
►
but its overall it's been a huge win and I learn a new language and that is
[TS]
01:10:42
◼
►
valuable too and and now I have have a very very good tool for certain types of
[TS]
01:10:48
◼
►
problems in my tool belt yes I learn something new to talk about on the show
[TS]
01:10:54
◼
►
here and there and I mean like jon said a few more dollars a month that's that's
[TS]
01:11:00
◼
►
significant that's impressive and that's really awesome and it's it's kinda crazy
[TS]
01:11:04
◼
►
that you just choosing to attack this problem a little bit differently
[TS]
01:11:10
◼
►
has had what I think to be a pretty big tangible impact on your financial
[TS]
01:11:16
◼
►
situation for overcast but that's that's awesome and who would have thought that
[TS]
01:11:22
◼
►
ditching PHP would save you hundreds I mean on costs
[TS]
01:11:29
◼
►
and just not even touching all of it just getting it for like this one
[TS]
01:11:32
◼
►
like hot spot this one like major bottleneck that was a huge resource hog
[TS]
01:11:36
◼
►
that and that that's why I like that I now have this in my in my tool belt
[TS]
01:11:40
◼
►
because now I know like problems like this I i havent the way to attack them I
[TS]
01:11:45
◼
►
have something else that I know well enough and I trust enough to do this
[TS]
01:11:49
◼
►
kind of thing that's now available to me and that that will enable certain new
[TS]
01:11:55
◼
►
things and like you know i didnt i dont wanna learn certain things like Python
[TS]
01:11:58
◼
►
or Ruby that much because they didn't seem to provide a lot like enough of an
[TS]
01:12:03
◼
►
advantage to make it worth me adding a complexity and having that the burden of
[TS]
01:12:07
◼
►
having to learn that over a few weeks and be all the time into it go is
[TS]
01:12:13
◼
►
different enough and good enough at certain things that it was worth it to
[TS]
01:12:17
◼
►
me and the bad old marco would have spent many more months arguing with
[TS]
01:12:24
◼
►
everyone else is that why you didn't need to rewrite the amount of time and
[TS]
01:12:30
◼
►
energy you would have spent defending your decision not to rewrite it and go
[TS]
01:12:33
◼
►
we would very quickly to a few minutes actually took you to rewrite it go
[TS]
01:12:39
◼
►
know this this is what happens when a lot of money to meet on one side of an
[TS]
01:12:42
◼
►
argument
[TS]
01:12:43
◼
►
yeah well it's all speculative like I don't think it'll be that much faster
[TS]
01:12:45
◼
►
maybe I can reduce the number of genes from one to two even now you're saying
[TS]
01:12:49
◼
►
it's not that much money although I think it totally is and then you know
[TS]
01:12:52
◼
►
all the arguments just made about having a senior till date and so on and so
[TS]
01:12:55
◼
►
forth we could have made those arguments here but you know you have and you know
[TS]
01:12:59
◼
►
I don't like a big deal that I would never had it so I hope you learned from
[TS]
01:13:03
◼
►
this that like trying new things is awesome and give you money and it's
[TS]
01:13:09
◼
►
usually taken that is like I get his work all the time I get to the
[TS]
01:13:14
◼
►
calculation of like how much energy would be for me to argue against this
[TS]
01:13:18

for his house majority will take me to do it and surprising amount of time it's
[TS]
01:13:22
◼
►
like it's more exhausting to me to think about arguing against it
[TS]
01:13:26
◼
►
that is just do it actually less work than you like whatever its done when
[TS]
01:13:31
◼
►
it's done the argument is over there is no argument we had and it was less
[TS]
01:13:35
◼
►
mentally exhausting the name to try do
[TS]
01:13:37
◼
►
you know argue about this i mean you know in my case it was really just about
[TS]
01:13:41
◼
►
like you know i'm not i'm not gonna take a step and learn a language that is
[TS]
01:13:47
◼
►
generally similar to PHP and what it does well and it doesn't do well because
[TS]
01:13:52
◼
►
there's not a whole lot of upside for that
[TS]
01:13:55
◼
►
well what will work on that will work on that one next like I know that's what
[TS]
01:13:58
◼
►
you think but like with with go like the reason I went to it was because I I had
[TS]
01:14:04
◼
►
this problem that I was doing that
[TS]
01:14:07
◼
►
PHP is it is especially bad at like if it was something that PHP is kind of
[TS]
01:14:11
◼
►
inconvenient for or not that well designed for that's less of again it's
[TS]
01:14:15
◼
►
more like well an ideal world on different time scale doing maybe I would
[TS]
01:14:19
◼
►
do something else but but like in most cases most of the problems I have to
[TS]
01:14:25
◼
►
solve with web apps the other languages don't solve it better than PHP enough to
[TS]
01:14:30
◼
►
make it worth the jump and and the hassle of having to rewrite things I
[TS]
01:14:33
◼
►
mean this is costing me this is gonna cost me probably two months of web
[TS]
01:14:37
◼
►
programming time because I not only had to rewrite the crawlers and debug all
[TS]
01:14:41
◼
►
the problems that came with them but also to rewrite a lot of the supporting
[TS]
01:14:44
◼
►
tools things like the logging infrastructure and like the things that
[TS]
01:14:48
◼

allow me to to check and see you when when Vedra last crawled how often
[TS]
01:14:53
◼

monitoring if there's delays if there's cue congestion in being able to force
[TS]
01:14:57
◼
►
want to crawl immediately like there's all sorts of like little infrastructure
[TS]
01:15:01
◼
►
supporting pieces that tie into the cooling system that I now have to modify
[TS]
01:15:05
◼
►
or rewrite because of the different system so it's it is it is a pretty
[TS]
01:15:09
◼
►
expensive change up front it will pay off over time but it's gonna take a lot
[TS]
01:15:14
◼
►
of time into this why like I'm not gonna like throughout the whole rest of the
[TS]
01:15:17
◼
►
app in Python or something because there it's just there doesn't seem to be
[TS]
01:15:20
◼
►
enough benefit to doing that for for the amount of time work it would take if I'm
[TS]
01:15:26
◼
►
faced with a problem that PHP does really badly like lots of parallel
[TS]
01:15:31
◼

network requests now I'm not going to use it for that so that's that's where

01:15:37
◼

the benefit when you sell overcast here next product you own the parts that are
[TS]
01:15:41
◼

appropriate for go you won't read PHP to begin with and it'll be go from the
[TS]
01:15:45
◼

beginning in the same thing with your queue management stuff like if you ever
[TS]
01:15:47
◼

ever ever across the next hurdle which is like
[TS]
01:15:50
◼
►
third-party products for dealing with queues of things and managing the cues
[TS]
01:15:53
◼
►
and dealing with failures and reporting and logging there there lots of
[TS]
01:15:57
◼

infrastructure type tools to deal with that I know you probably don't like it
[TS]
01:16:00
◼

they would rather just right things straightforwardly yourself but in a
[TS]
01:16:03

similar way that if you were to try to use one of those who like I have a

simple charity work started this thing and I had this weird system where some

of the music systems that its like again the next time you do a project if you

01:16:13

had that too in your tool belt then you all say ok this part of the system under

01:16:17
◼

item PHP this morning trading go this thing I'm going to use you know this
[TS]
01:16:21
◼

queue system and this whatever like to work on a third-party subjects but like
[TS]
01:16:25
◼
►
I feel like having this is one of the things that having a crappy job forces
[TS]
01:16:30
◼
►
you to deal with because you have either one crappy job better multiple crappy
[TS]
01:16:34
◼

jobs just like regular govt jobs you work with somebody else you get the pic
[TS]
01:16:39
◼

after time what you're working with what database he organized but he was logging
[TS]
01:16:43
◼

infrastructure working but operating system wouldn't you know it you don't
[TS]
01:16:47
◼
►
get the pic right by the time you work with crappy things and but eventually
[TS]
01:16:50
◼
►
you work with a whole bunch of different things so that when you come to a new
[TS]
01:16:53
◼

situation you like what I tried these five things in these 7 things in this
[TS]
01:16:57
◼

room or whatever and you have you're forced to have experience with lots of
[TS]
01:17:01
◼

different things and so you could have a deeper tool chest pull from where it
[TS]
01:17:04
◼

could not force by some pointy haired boss to use a particular technology euro
[TS]
01:17:09

it's always up to you to do like the cost benefit in like I'm the only person
[TS]
01:17:13
◼

here is it really worth me learning to do this on my own so much harder to
[TS]
01:17:18
◼

you don't have the time to just screw around with stuff and try everything out
[TS]
01:17:22
◼

and Andy survey the landscape really just have to go with what you know and
[TS]
01:17:26
◼

so now you are becoming a hurdle to say I am going to screw around for a little
[TS]
01:17:30
◼

while just because I think they'll be a benefit from it it's a sort of a slow
[TS]
01:17:34
◼

motion version of having a series of jail be used for you for fifty different
[TS]
01:17:38
◼

it's not your I also think it's kind of funny for you to see you just kind of
[TS]
01:17:43
◼
►
wave your hand at oh it won't be any better than PHP well that's not what I
[TS]
01:17:47
◼

said I said it won't be better enough to make it worth the transition costs ok
[TS]
01:17:52
◼
►
even then I think I think that's a very bold claim for not enough ago
[TS]
01:17:58
◼
►
necessarily because you know go but just kinda wave off I don't know Python as an
[TS]
01:18:03
◼
►
example in just assume that it's not going to be that beneficial I think
[TS]
01:18:09
◼

that's pretty bold now it doesn't necessarily mean you're wrong it just
[TS]
01:18:12
◼

means it's pretty bold and I&I am proud of you and remain proud of you for for

having explored go and I echo what john is saying that I think this is a baby

01:18:32
◼

power market is right about this thing though is like it's not even you know
[TS]
01:18:35
◼
►
Python vs PHP is that he found the hot spot right like you reduce the number
[TS]
01:18:39
◼
►
half doesn't matter how much better something is in PHP this was clearly the
[TS]
01:18:44
◼
►
hot spot like he's not gonna happen again right like so that's that's just
[TS]
01:18:50
◼
►
rude anything just working yourself especially when you were here so put
[TS]
01:18:53
◼
►
your effort towards a thing that's gonna give you the biggest bang for your buck
[TS]
01:18:56
◼
►
and Sophie if you have the number of services it's it's silly to expect that
[TS]
01:19:00
◼
►
the next change will also have the number saved his attention they all have
[TS]
01:19:03
◼
►
you no one no one thousandth of a server and you know so it like decide where the
[TS]
01:19:10
◼
►
borrowing against an address that and then you know if if the current state of
[TS]
01:19:14
◼
►
things is finding your work is done you don't need or like I don't think like
[TS]
01:19:19
◼
►
for example he decided the hot spot as BHP I injured my speech with Python he
[TS]
01:19:23
◼
►
would not have happened over a service like that the type of thing we without
[TS]
01:19:26
◼
►
kinda ballpark and are these are the same level of abstraction goes to Kluwer
[TS]
01:19:31
◼
►
level and it's clear giving him something to PHP yeah yeah definitely
[TS]
01:19:36
◼
►
doing watch kill lots of watching it this week I'm like it a lot
[TS]
01:19:43
◼
►
yeah it's so limited that there's not a lot of pressure on me to make something
[TS]
01:19:49
◼
►
amazing like that's too but like there's a lot of pressure on me to cram the
[TS]
01:19:53
◼
►
entire app into this because you can't like it is not possible to so the limit
[TS]
01:20:00
◼
►
limit I have are very challenging and and that way kind of interesting to me
[TS]
01:20:07
◼
►
can you do things like an accelerometer access on the watch like if I if I shake
[TS]
01:20:13
◼
►
my wrist still no sensors like a lot of time I listen to a podcast or something
[TS]
01:20:19
◼
►
I hate i'm talking about the stupid little clicker like going forward and
[TS]
01:20:23
◼
►
back of doing two clicks and three clicks which yet when you have cult
[TS]
01:20:25
◼
►
figure is in like I don't know if I can only hold too long and ends up being the
[TS]
01:20:29
◼
►
quick and the whole bike I know all the patterns but I just can't make my
[TS]
01:20:31
◼
►
fingers do with the stupid Apple quicker but you just you run out of gestures
[TS]
01:20:36
◼
►
like you can't you don't have enough there's not enough input
[TS]
01:20:38
◼
►
funds so the time it's like I just missed last few seconds of oversight of
[TS]
01:20:43
◼
►
pot guess I would check members to go back seven seconds and just have that be
[TS]
01:20:48
◼
►
the one on ambiguous vigorously shaking like you know I think he can make a
[TS]
01:20:52
◼
►
vigorous enough so you didn't have to show you wouldn't accidentally do it or
[TS]
01:20:55
◼
►
whatever and that is much easier than me trying to triple click the stupid
[TS]
01:20:58
◼
►
headset thing to go back and hear what if somebody said actually i I have a
[TS]
01:21:03
◼
►
prototype class that's a pocket tap recognizer that will try to recognize if
[TS]
01:21:08
◼
►
you tap the phone logs in your pocket just like it with your finger from the
[TS]
01:21:12
◼
►
outside of your jeans or whatever and I got that working decently but I could
[TS]
01:21:18
◼
►
never get it working reliably enough to actually ship it like it's it's just not
[TS]
01:21:22
◼
►
good enough to get there isn't there's too many false responses in either in
[TS]
01:21:26
◼
►
either direction like falsely detecting like if you could step really hard as a
[TS]
01:21:30
◼
►
tap and missing a real tap the keg I just could not get to work properly
[TS]
01:21:35
◼
►
and its kinda small for gestures that sort of thing like the one input you
[TS]
01:21:38
◼
►
have is the shaker and shake to undo is silly but I'm pretty sure I've never
[TS]
01:21:44
◼
►
actually done accidentally done it and I very frequently have a done it on
[TS]
01:21:48
◼
►
purpose and be shaken a nap in the in the dim hope this Apple actually support
[TS]
01:21:55
◼
►
on due Thurs shake and I'm really excited about a dozen it doesn't I just
[TS]
01:21:58
◼
►
under said you've never kick that off accidentally never know I do it all the
[TS]
01:22:03
◼
►
time will be holding my iPad still be in in bed on my back holding my head with
[TS]
01:22:09
◼
►
both hands using it and then all kinda like drop it intentionally to let it
[TS]
01:22:13
◼
►
land on my chest I can like type or something like that
[TS]
01:22:16
◼
►
not support the weight of the iPad with my hands anymore I have an iPad 3 if I
[TS]
01:22:20
◼
►
did it would break my ribs that's true that is an excellent points every time I
[TS]
01:22:28
◼
►
do that deliberate drop onto my under my chest in order to you make it so that i
[TS]
01:22:33
◼
►
dont to supported anymore then then it kicks the undue
[TS]
01:22:40
◼
►
do you want to do the typing you just did and it drives me nuts every time but
[TS]
01:22:43
◼
►
as a developer I know that it it makes perfect sense why that's happening and
[TS]
01:22:47
◼
►
it's not my fault but it's kinda my fault yet for all I know I am accident
[TS]
01:22:52
◼
►
I'm just doing it and Absa don't support on do I never I've never seen stuff
[TS]
01:22:58
◼
►
going on my screen realizes because I jostle thing too much and I guess that i
[TS]
01:23:02
◼
►
very frequently after accidentally performing some action just usually
[TS]
01:23:06
◼
►
shake the device doesn't undo it lets me get revenge against my stupid phone
[TS]
01:23:15
◼
►
as I think I'm doing a lot of what I like so I like it a lot I think it's
[TS]
01:23:23
◼
►
important for people's expectations of what watched it absolute actually be to
[TS]
01:23:29
◼
►
actually know how it works a little bit so so basically so you know when apple
[TS]
01:23:34
◼
►
launches in a few months or whatever doesn't matter
[TS]
01:23:37
◼
►
developers can only Apple can do whatever they want their third party
[TS]
01:23:41
◼
►
developers only make watch after the watch kit so what this is is the watch
[TS]
01:23:47
◼
►
it watch it is actually extension that runs on the phone from the main like
[TS]
01:23:52
◼
►
parent at and it runs in the background
[TS]
01:23:55
◼
►
whenever whenever you select like the app's icon on the watch it launches the
[TS]
01:23:59
◼
►
walk an extension on the phone to like you know boot up giving data and control
[TS]
01:24:03
◼
►
it and then the third party developers could never actually runs on the watch
[TS]
01:24:08
◼
►
all third-party code is running on the phone and it's literally just like its
[TS]
01:24:12
◼
►
reading data from the parent app on the phone is making a network calls it's
[TS]
01:24:16
◼
►
also happening on the phone and then you send commands to the watch list update
[TS]
01:24:21
◼
►
the screen the watch is playing through a static storyboard we've defined your
[TS]
01:24:25
◼
►
your controls everything in the moment they have those are all staticy can't
[TS]
01:24:29
◼
►
generate elements dynamically at runtime you can hide and show them but you can't
[TS]
01:24:33
◼
►
generate new ones and so the phone is basically commanding the watch over
[TS]
01:24:38
◼
►
Bluetooth how to update your interface in it so it's it's sending over commands
[TS]
01:24:45
◼
►
like sit this label's text to the strength and all the commands its
[TS]
01:24:49
◼
►
hilarious all the commands there right only you can't read from them so you can
[TS]
01:24:55
◼
►
set the color of the text you can't read it back to literally just a thin layer
[TS]
01:24:59
◼
►
on top of this convention it's like telling the watch how-to updated
[TS]
01:25:03
◼
►
interface so that there's a number of challenges with the biggest one is the
[TS]
01:25:07
◼
►
latency cuz Bluetooth has some lazy it in modern that's pretty small but there
[TS]
01:25:12
◼
►
is some latency and is also just a lot of pretty limited bandwidth there and
[TS]
01:25:19
◼
►
the watch as far as we can tell from from hinson things here and there
[TS]
01:25:22
◼
►
the watches not gonna keep your app running for very long it look as soon as
[TS]
01:25:26
◼
►
you start looking at it it closes the extension clothes and everything is cut
[TS]
01:25:29
◼
►
off so there's gonna be major challenges in just getting these watch apps to to
[TS]
01:25:37
◼
►
be dynamic and to be to be useful in to be rich because like if you like sending
[TS]
01:25:41
◼
►
over images you know even like they are having a problem with the album art of
[TS]
01:25:46
◼
►
like how do you how do you send over albemarle in a way that is efficient and
[TS]
01:25:49
◼
►
you can have it cash up to 20 megs of Albemarle
[TS]
01:25:54
◼
►
like all these little limitations little problems but overall the biggest thing
[TS]
01:26:02
◼
►
about it is just this this lack of dynamic interface and the the latency
[TS]
01:26:06
◼
►
involved in up doing things and everything is based around trying to
[TS]
01:26:10
◼
►
minimize it also if you're really chatty of the protocol of the blue to keep
[TS]
01:26:14
◼
►
their radios on a bunch of battery life on both sides so there's there's a lot
[TS]
01:26:19
◼
►
of challenges lot of limitations here I would say for the for the first wave of
[TS]
01:26:25
◼
►
third-party apps which i think is going to be a year roughly I would say don't
[TS]
01:26:32
◼
►
expect a lot of dynamic interaction it is like a static menu that you're
[TS]
01:26:36
◼
►
dealing with iraq static interface elements there's there's almost nothing
[TS]
01:26:39
◼
►
done anything you can do
[TS]
01:26:41
◼
►
I would not expect a whole lot from games I think some games will work on it
[TS]
01:26:46
◼
►
things we can have very simple controls like which of these five actions do you
[TS]
01:26:51
◼
►
want to do next Texas but that's like there's not a lot of interaction as
[TS]
01:26:54
◼
►
reasonably possible that the system on the plus side it's really quick to
[TS]
01:27:00
◼
►
develop for and it's really easy to get something going and it's why I think I
[TS]
01:27:05
◼
►
think it's a smart move overall from Apple and the tools are really good
[TS]
01:27:10
◼
►
there's a couple of bugs here and there but overall for this limited set of
[TS]
01:27:14
◼
►
things that it doing it's pretty well suited for that so I'm extremely happy
[TS]
01:27:18
◼
►
about it as much no I'm happy that I don't have to be forced to cram the
[TS]
01:27:24
◼
►
whole app into it because I just can't so instead i canvassed limited subset I
[TS]
01:27:29
◼
►
can do in a month or two and and be a have really great app out there and be
[TS]
01:27:33
◼
►
done with it so overall I like it again set a shallow if you're if you're going
[TS]
01:27:40
◼
►
to buy one of these things don't expect a whole lot from third party apps but
[TS]
01:27:43
◼
►
what you have I think will be interesting and certainly will be enough
[TS]
01:27:48
◼
►
for the first year that's good for Apple because what they want to say boy the
[TS]
01:27:52
◼
►
Apple watches out and already there are certain very large number of third-party
[TS]
01:27:58
◼
►
applications for it because if it's really easy for you to add like you know
[TS]
01:28:02
◼
►
one just a trivial well all Apple I support at this point is trivial without
[TS]
01:28:07
◼
►
native apps and stuff like that and limitations so if you make it easy for
[TS]
01:28:10
◼
►
people to go get her iPhone app because they have watched it for it and it never
[TS]
01:28:15
◼
►
is thinking of is there anything sensible I can show in the washington
[TS]
01:28:18
◼
►
there's anything remotely sensible no matter how simple it is you don't feel
[TS]
01:28:21
◼
►
too bad it's like everyone has to be something so I think this will help
[TS]
01:28:23
◼
►
Apple have a lot of you know a lot of phone apps iOS apps that support the
[TS]
01:28:30
◼
►
phone watch apps I was that support the watch out of the gate because that's
[TS]
01:28:35
◼
►
what they want to say that our platform is exciting it's popular and it was
[TS]
01:28:39
◼
►
possible to make full-fledged applications then did you just made some
[TS]
01:28:42
◼
►
silly thing that was barely interactive you would look bad but now everyone will
[TS]
01:28:46
◼
►
look back together
[TS]
01:28:47
◼
►
you know comparatively good yeah I mean it's it really does serve their
[TS]
01:28:52
◼
►
interests are very well and I think it helps us to I mean I know a lot of
[TS]
01:28:58
◼
►
developers are probably fair frustrated with the limitations of what you a lot
[TS]
01:29:01
◼
►
of the very long list of things you can't do things you don't have access to
[TS]
01:29:04
◼
►
like for instance if your phone is out of range of the watch from what I've
[TS]
01:29:10
◼
►
been told
[TS]
01:29:11
◼
►
hardware yet but from what we've been told if your phone losses that little
[TS]
01:29:16
◼
►
connection to the watch if you go running with it or whatever your app
[TS]
01:29:20
◼
►
just terminates like it just ends because it can't keep you updated
[TS]
01:29:24
◼
►
anymore it's just like you just ends so nothing can run detached from a phone
[TS]
01:29:31
◼
►
that third-party an end to so many limitations on on the things that can't
[TS]
01:29:36
◼
►
be kinds of things you can't do with the interface is very low and and and we do
[TS]
01:29:41
◼
►
and we still in the simulator they have they have attempted to simulate latency
[TS]
01:29:47
◼
►
with some of these commands but it's just artificial insertion of sleep
[TS]
01:29:52
◼
►
command in the UI so you don't we don't really know what the latency will be
[TS]
01:29:57
◼
►
like a normal device like you know like if I'm showing a list of of of podcast
[TS]
01:30:02
◼
►
episodes like it in the play the screen I wanna have artwork on each one showing
[TS]
01:30:05
◼
►
you what shoulder from at this point a man and I'm down to their really tiny
[TS]
01:30:10
◼
►
they're looking at a couple of kilobytes but in the simulator it takes a long
[TS]
01:30:15
◼
►
time to load that and and I don't know if that's a bug I don't know if it's
[TS]
01:30:19
◼
►
because it's simulating latency like per request is that have by bite size or I
[TS]
01:30:24
◼
►
don't know if that's really how how late is going to be in which case I'm gonna
[TS]
01:30:27
◼
►
have to change that design entirely gotta think like yosemite in iTunes
[TS]
01:30:31
◼
►
seven and just average the color of the album art pick one car out of it and
[TS]
01:30:36
◼
►
where to that one car so I have had an honest question you may choose not to
[TS]
01:30:44
◼
►
answer it but you've talked several times about how limited watch kids which
[TS]
01:30:47
◼
►
makes sense
[TS]
01:30:49
◼
►
can you give it a couple of examples of things you really wish you could do or
[TS]
01:30:52
◼
►
have tried to do but couldn't make work with the
[TS]
01:30:55
◼
►
current set of watch kit limitations oh sure I mean one of the biggest ones as I
[TS]
01:31:01
◼
►
i cant do my plan to meet at all i mean the I could render it to a bunch of
[TS]
01:31:06
◼
►
images and try to send the commands over the right set this bar of the of the EQ
[TS]
01:31:11
◼
►
to be this high on the storyboarding you just like only three of those four
[TS]
01:31:16
◼
►
frames the storyboard
[TS]
01:31:18
◼
►
the old you know a lot of you guys do this where they wanted to look like
[TS]
01:31:23
◼
►
level meters but they just have like four images to decide between randomly
[TS]
01:31:27
◼
►
storyboards all static no no no one knows what the way for me that's how
[TS]
01:31:33
◼
►
Apple does it when I was 7 animal watch when they have their music app that have
[TS]
01:31:37
◼
►
little now playing
[TS]
01:31:38
◼
►
animation bars those are fake I think the one in the QuickTime seven players
[TS]
01:31:42
◼
►
realize it I don't know I think so but the ones the ones I S seven little three
[TS]
01:31:48
◼
►
bar animation menu item that's totally fake and that I like seeing that is
[TS]
01:31:52
◼
►
being annoyed it was figured maybe try to do my own that was real and it worked
[TS]
01:31:56
◼
►
ones due to serve a purpose I'm joking about the story like something to let
[TS]
01:32:02
◼
►
people know that audio is playing is probably a good idea if you do I guess
[TS]
01:32:06
◼
►
it's probably much better to do with the static thing like a red light on the
[TS]
01:32:10
◼
►
camera that shows you know cameras on or whatever but people are if you show
[TS]
01:32:15
◼
►
anyone who looks like a level meter people know that mean something is
[TS]
01:32:19
◼
►
playing that I can't hear it something is screwed up the music playing like you
[TS]
01:32:24
◼
►
would think most people just look at into the possible courses play otherwise
[TS]
01:32:27
◼
►
there wouldn't be a possible but I found my experience that people do not
[TS]
01:32:30
◼
►
recognize that the reality is staring in the face but he showed level meter
[TS]
01:32:34
◼
►
anywhere they know something should be playing or not hearing it's Alex program
[TS]
01:32:37
◼
►
where I mean it's ok see you know limitations I've hit directly I mean I
[TS]
01:32:43
◼
►
am one of the biggest ones is just not not knowing how much latency I can
[TS]
01:32:48
◼
►
actually expect in real life when sending images over and over that but
[TS]
01:32:51
◼
►
you know so some of the actual like hard limits are things like I can't even show
[TS]
01:32:57
◼
►
efficiently the second remaining indicator
[TS]
01:33:01
◼
►
because there is a built-in widget that would that you don't have to keep
[TS]
01:33:05
◼
►
updating for counting up or down to a certain time or certain time interval
[TS]
01:33:08
◼
►
are showing the current time so i cant like the only way for me to have it
[TS]
01:33:13
◼
►
countdown with a second with the actual seconds remaining is to update it every
[TS]
01:33:17
◼
►
time that number changes so at least once per second which I probably can't
[TS]
01:33:21
◼
►
and probably shouldn't be doing so instead I have I haven't actually update
[TS]
01:33:25
◼
►
a minutes remaining counter and whenever whenever the number of minutes remaining
[TS]
01:33:30
◼
►
changes I sent an update over the Bluetooth and have it up to the label to
[TS]
01:33:34
◼
►
show that and I have a have a progress bar in the current mock-up that only its
[TS]
01:33:40
◼
►
images and it only has like a hundred and fifty increments across the screen
[TS]
01:33:45
◼
►
and so whenever like the progress through the episode changes by enough to
[TS]
01:33:49
◼
►
matter to be worth a couple of pixels I updated image to be the new value are
[TS]
01:33:54
◼
►
you still doing better than windows ninety-five that's true yes that was
[TS]
01:33:58
◼
►
just palette cycling
[TS]
01:33:59
◼
►
segmented progress bars oh yeah and you have more than a hundred and didn't have
[TS]
01:34:04
◼
►
a hundred right so there's like there's there's limitations like that just I
[TS]
01:34:08
◼
►
just can't get around the biggest limitation is the width of the screen is
[TS]
01:34:15
◼
►
just really narrow can't fit a lot on the screen and and I've managed to make
[TS]
01:34:23
◼
►
it work I think I won't know until actually get one of these watches and
[TS]
01:34:26
◼
►
start using it but I think I managed to make it work
[TS]
01:34:28
◼
►
acceptably but that is the hardest challenges is to design challenge right
[TS]
01:34:32
◼
►
there but it is also like the little details like so if you have a navigation
[TS]
01:34:37
◼
►
stack so you have a hearing your route controller then it pushes a menu select
[TS]
01:34:41
◼
►
an element on the table view it pushes the new one then again it pushes another
[TS]
01:34:46
◼
►
any of the ones that are below the current item in the stack that you that
[TS]
01:34:50
◼
►
you put something on top of those stopped receiving you I updates and
[TS]
01:34:55
◼
►
those can no longer send you updates for themselves so let's say you have at the
[TS]
01:35:01
◼
►
base of the navigation hierarchy a list of the podcast you subscribe to then you
[TS]
01:35:07
◼
►
push on top of that the latest you in a plane so you're in the middle of a
[TS]
01:35:11
◼
►
podcast
[TS]
01:35:13
◼
►
the list of pot suscribe to changes for some reason something new comes new
[TS]
01:35:17
◼
►
download you delete one whatever the case the list changes so now the route
[TS]
01:35:22
◼
►
controller which is not currently shown on screen it's very blue now playing the
[TS]
01:35:26
◼
►
route controller needs to update itself if you it still memory it will recognize
[TS]
01:35:31
◼
►
if you if you recognize that there's there's been a change but you have to
[TS]
01:35:35
◼
►
check to see if its active and if it's not active
[TS]
01:35:38
◼
►
you have to just in queue that and just set like a boolean flag summer saying
[TS]
01:35:42
◼
►
this is invalidated I have now in a handy to reload it next time shown and
[TS]
01:35:47
◼
►
the next time you have to check that flag as they open if I'm invalid below
[TS]
01:35:51
◼
►
the data like all this stuff like this doesn't really exist and you like it on
[TS]
01:35:55
◼
►
the on the phone like these are these problems are pleased that you can just
[TS]
01:35:58
◼
►
can't do things you want that's fine
[TS]
01:36:00
◼
►
the watch is really like to watch kit communication is really basic
[TS]
01:36:05
◼
►
like it's it's right only it's very limited its all exist like sending like
[TS]
01:36:10
◼
►
remote desktop commands over the wire busily and so there's there's really
[TS]
01:36:15
◼
►
there's a lot of stuff to do very manually a lot of stuff you have to just
[TS]
01:36:20
◼
►
choose not to do more to do in in very minimal are clever ways and that's kind
[TS]
01:36:26
◼
►
of why i like it because I enjoy challenges like that like screen flicker
[TS]
01:36:29
◼
►
that when you go back to the podcast list you know only ones that thing is
[TS]
01:36:34
◼
►
active with it even have a chance to update you as soon as you go back to the
[TS]
01:36:37
◼
►
screen at Ballina said you're just now within a couple of you know a fraction
[TS]
01:36:41
◼
►
of a second it's going to update everything whereas before it could have
[TS]
01:36:44
◼
►
been updated behind the scenes are now now you're you're putting that you I
[TS]
01:36:47
◼
►
Flickr in people's faces which kinda crappy yeah and it sucks and I don't
[TS]
01:36:51
◼
►
think that they can do about it
[TS]
01:36:56
◼
►
someone needs to discover the hack of like if you just make it the currently
[TS]
01:37:00
◼
►
active view larger than the actual screen and you know like sort of like
[TS]
01:37:03
◼
►
CSS sprite CSS sprites for you I yeah like it's not really pushing of you I'm
[TS]
01:37:09
◼
►
just shifting the viewport in so really this view is always active so I can
[TS]
01:37:13
◼
►
update the podcast yet can even do that yeah I'm sure they would reject your
[TS]
01:37:18
◼
►
appetite
[TS]
01:37:19
◼
►
I would love to do like the force Press gesture on the watch which is
[TS]
01:37:24
◼
►
functionally a right click it shows that menu of overlaid icons and use the Force
[TS]
01:37:29
◼
►
to press Iran biggest country really hard on this menu comes up and that you
[TS]
01:37:35
◼
►
can only do it
[TS]
01:37:36
◼
►
per screen like you can't force presson say a tables a table lists item and get
[TS]
01:37:42
◼
►
options for that item you just have to do it for like the whole screen like
[TS]
01:37:46
◼
►
this screen has the fourth press yes the force presses on the screen but then
[TS]
01:37:49
◼
►
north where what part of the screen your fingers touching and I can kinda see
[TS]
01:37:52
◼
►
that because what if that gesture becomes part of the vocabulary of using
[TS]
01:37:56
◼
►
the watch it's kind of weird to make people care about where their finger is
[TS]
01:38:01
◼
►
on the screen you know me like that that's two different things because they
[TS]
01:38:04
◼
►
then you had to be thinking is this one of those four espressos buried in this
[TS]
01:38:07
◼
►
apt word doesn't matter if there is a resistance force president as a bird
[TS]
01:38:11
◼
►
does show the president will do something exactly but I mean really like
[TS]
01:38:18
◼
►
I was not really that excited at the thought of playing with watched it now
[TS]
01:38:23
◼
►
I'm very excited like now that I see what I can do with not that much effort
[TS]
01:38:27
◼
►
and how useful it would probably actually be in practice really useful in
[TS]
01:38:32
◼
►
situations where I feel like I'm like yeah I'm walking my dog all bundled up
[TS]
01:38:35
◼
►
in the colon McMahon I really like to have a busy little watch control right
[TS]
01:38:39
◼
►
now this coming up on my you know this would actually be nice to have so i'm
[TS]
01:38:45
◼
►
looking for to wait five years before we can live in the real future where we
[TS]
01:38:49
◼
►
have a great view of your nose hair when you're out on the wall in your walk
[TS]
01:38:52
◼
►
begins you'll have live video on your watch it's like Dick Tracy and I'll be
[TS]
01:38:56
◼
►
able to have a judge knows this that sounds awesome the future I can't wait
[TS]
01:39:02
◼
►
yeah cause I think it is like watching you know your your risk you know
[TS]
01:39:07
◼
►
vibrates a little bit and you pick up the system then and there is your wife's
[TS]
01:39:11
◼
►
tiny little face on there telling you something and she could see the future
[TS]
