you you guys are failed I see something about transporter in the FU do we want
[TS]
00:00:06
◼
►
to talk about that or do not care that's where the follow-up to this be as quick
[TS]
00:00:10
◼
►
i three and we were talking about transport I may be used during an add-on
[TS]
00:00:15
◼
►
up a show mentioning the lights and it was marco was then the lights blue LED
[TS]
00:00:19
◼
►
lights are going on on devices this is be cool 8 well you can apparently turned
[TS]
00:00:24
◼
►
lights off on transport so if you are one of those people who doesn't like
[TS]
00:00:27
◼
►
lights on your electronics and you get a transporter roundly condemn in turn off
[TS]
00:00:32
◼
►
the lights I don't think like that bad but then again mine is also in the
[TS]
00:00:36
◼
►
basement so there you go
[TS]
00:00:38
◼
►
speaking of retina man John that thing in your review here if you how you how
[TS]
00:00:45
◼
►
you found that the default wallpaper is exactly two x the current 27 inch Cinema
[TS]
00:00:50
◼
►
Display is resolution quite a coincidence that's that's painful man
[TS]
00:00:55
◼
►
thats so painful cuz now you look like all the pieces are in place I was
[TS]
00:01:00
◼
►
treated with all the pieces are in place to have a Retina Display except having
[TS]
00:01:06
◼
►
display like the computers now supported Thunderbolt to his fast enough to GPUs
[TS]
00:01:11
◼
►
are insanely fast all these new models and and there's clearly a
[TS]
00:01:15
◼
►
differentiation here whereas you know assuming it would need to be able to the
[TS]
00:01:21
◼
►
new MacBook Air still can't do it they don't happen double to right and that's
[TS]
00:01:25
◼
►
that's right isn't it I think that the only computers apple has announced with
[TS]
00:01:28
◼
►
honorable to are the new Retina MacBook Pro and Mac Pro so it will be
[TS]
00:01:34
◼
►
interesting and it would certainly I i've decided now looking at looking at
[TS]
00:01:39
◼
►
what's be released unless the benchmarks show some kind of massive gains an
[TS]
00:01:44
◼
►
application I actually use on the new Mac Pros I think I'm going to wait and
[TS]
00:01:49
◼
►
not buy a new Mac Pro until there is a right and desktop display because I am
[TS]
00:01:54
◼
►
just not gonna see enough of the gain from you know just the CPU site alone
[TS]
00:01:58
◼
►
just historic site alone like I already have a good CPU a good as nasty but what
[TS]
00:02:04
◼
►
I really want is that display and until it existed I'm gonna hold off thats
[TS]
00:02:09
◼
►
gonna be great clam chowder I'm looking forward to that
[TS]
00:02:12
◼
►
resolve holtzman when I get mind about how awesome things like what like what
[TS]
00:02:18
◼
►
you're really gonna get me and you know if I get it before then
[TS]
00:02:21
◼
►
now it makes sense we're just a question your ability to act rationally I might
[TS]
00:02:26
◼
►
not i mean that's that's certainly a valid question and you might be right
[TS]
00:02:29
◼
►
and I you know this might be being played back at some point later and
[TS]
00:02:34
◼
►
laughing at me but i just i think if you already have a 2010 Mac Pro there's not
[TS]
00:02:42
◼
►
a major reason to upgrade for just the CPU performance want to see you know how
[TS]
00:02:49
◼
►
how quickly applications take advantage of those GPUs that could really make a
[TS]
00:02:53
◼
►
big difference I don't expect that most of the apps that I use will really do
[TS]
00:02:59
◼
►
much with that but we'll see I could be wrong about that
[TS]
00:03:01
◼
►
your Mac Pro might prove probably actually be better four games than the
[TS]
00:03:04
◼
►
new expensive on then I'm going to buy because I could take out the video card
[TS]
00:03:07
◼
►
that you have in and buy aftermarket card and you know he's gotta find CPU
[TS]
00:03:12
◼
►
fast as day and then I would put in the fastest gaming card available that might
[TS]
00:03:17
◼
►
have better gaming compromise the obscenely expensive Mac Pro but it
[TS]
00:03:20
◼
►
wouldn't be black and cylinder shaped his one fan so you know and you see that
[TS]
00:03:24
◼
►
read one that's in the charity auction for the for profit for product red it's
[TS]
00:03:28
◼
►
kind of like a ride rather have a black one
[TS]
00:03:33
◼
►
see i like it a lot might my reason for hesitating on bidding on an auction is
[TS]
00:03:39
◼
►
that I don't know what the specs on the Mac Pro
[TS]
00:03:41
◼
►
the thing starts at 140 grams and the reason you're not beating is because
[TS]
00:03:47
◼
►
you're not clear what the insides are i think thats I think that it says
[TS]
00:03:51
◼
►
estimated range 40 to 60 grand does that mean that the first bit has to be forty
[TS]
00:03:55
◼
►
granted that mean that's what they expected to go for I've never been that
[TS]
00:03:59
◼
►
serious about an auction of this capacity to eat the answer to that
[TS]
00:04:03
◼
►
question I don't know either but if I could put in a bid for like three
[TS]
00:04:07
◼
►
thousand bucks Debbie it's not it's not entirely crazy because items like this
[TS]
00:04:12
◼
►
one of a kind of a blah would probably retain their resale value so even if you
[TS]
00:04:17
◼
►
spent an obscene amount of money on this you could in theory get that money back
[TS]
00:04:21
◼
►
even after the computer is obsolete simply selling it as
[TS]
00:04:24
◼
►
a one of a kind Mac Pro blah blah blah officially sanctioned like an
[TS]
00:04:29
◼
►
aftermarket modern something so it should remain as they like you know
[TS]
00:04:33
◼
►
right up to the Mac Pro comes out is like color where or when the company is
[TS]
00:04:36
◼
►
gonna start an energizing service that just let anybody use for like a thousand
[TS]
00:04:40
◼
►
bucks probably but the big problem is they don't tell you the specs on the Mac
[TS]
00:04:44
◼
►
Pro and so like if I'm if I would actually win this thing for a reasonable
[TS]
00:04:48
◼
►
price I would at least wanna know you know what what CPU doesn't have to
[TS]
00:04:53
◼
►
that's something you can't change right
[TS]
00:04:54
◼
►
GPUs care less about but like doesn't have the base model CPU it so that's
[TS]
00:04:59
◼
►
kind of crappy for that price but if it has the 12 core that's actually worse
[TS]
00:05:04
◼
►
for single-threaded tasks than the eight core I wouldn't want that either I don't
[TS]
00:05:10
◼
►
know this is all probably ridiculously move discussion because I don't think I
[TS]
00:05:14
◼
►
can get a free $1,000
[TS]
00:05:16
◼
►
I do want to get this review we have any other if you do we know what about us
[TS]
00:05:21
◼
►
703 and Johns motion sickness yeah this we should talk to us last week but I
[TS]
00:05:29
◼
►
installed the Sun another update I knew it was going to bring in people don't
[TS]
00:05:33
◼
►
know if the 703 update changes that so that if you go into the accessibility
[TS]
00:05:38
◼
►
preferences and turn on reduced motion it doesn't just removed the parallax
[TS]
00:05:43
◼
►
effect on the homescreen the parallax effect on public dialogue boxes it also
[TS]
00:05:47
◼
►
removes the zooming animation when you launch applications and when you go back
[TS]
00:05:52
◼
►
to springboard and everyplace is an animation with a crossfade and I always
[TS]
00:05:58
◼
►
had a discussion on from the second I installed I was younger I can't stand
[TS]
00:06:01
◼
►
the parallax the worst thing about the parents thing is my chosen lock screen
[TS]
00:06:06
◼
►
image picture of my dog dog dog died but yeah that's my lock screen image because
[TS]
00:06:15
◼
►
it's like a tiebreaker between like in my two kids MyLife everything would go
[TS]
00:06:18
◼
►
with the dog when you have power locks on it has to assume the image to zoom in
[TS]
00:06:24
◼
►
you know like so so we can do the parallax thing but there's not enough
[TS]
00:06:27
◼
►
background as a very tight close-up of my dog's face is not enough background
[TS]
00:06:31
◼
►
around it and when term power consumers damaged too much like shops offices on
[TS]
00:06:36
◼
►
the side of the screen so that's no good so I can't have that I definitely don't
[TS]
00:06:39
◼
►
and I don't like the parallax all I don't like the effect I don't like the
[TS]
00:06:43
◼
►
little dialogue around one thing and so I got the same like I also tried just
[TS]
00:06:48
◼
►
you know 703 up they'll get it and I knew it was going to reduce or eliminate
[TS]
00:06:53
◼
►
the swimming thing with the crosshair my call me to make my thing feel faster
[TS]
00:06:57
◼
►
right now the first thing is I'm not even sure that the duration of the
[TS]
00:07:01
◼
►
animation is any shorter I haven't actually time did but the feeling was
[TS]
00:07:07
◼
►
like they're still in animation is thought crossfade is it is it less time
[TS]
00:07:11
◼
►
than the zoom animation maybe it's the same amount of time I don't know you
[TS]
00:07:15
◼
►
know people keep asking me about that I think about it too I haven't tested it I
[TS]
00:07:21
◼
►
really don't want to test it you know just somebody like somebody with two
[TS]
00:07:26
◼
►
iPhone 5 vs point one of the other one take a video and and tested both ways
[TS]
00:07:31
◼
►
I'm curious to know the answer but not so curious about actually do that yes
[TS]
00:07:36
◼
►
but it does doesn't it does doesn't feelings and tease alright but the
[TS]
00:07:40
◼
►
second thing is I found that I miss the zooming because the zooming for all of
[TS]
00:07:45
◼
►
its you know slight motion sickness inducing feeling that I and by the way I
[TS]
00:07:49
◼
►
had that you know very early on I just learned you learn where to look it was
[TS]
00:07:52
◼
►
only because it's unexpected right now I knew I was gonna work that zooming
[TS]
00:07:56
◼
►
animation was like the the thing that made I was 7 feel like I was seven to me
[TS]
00:08:03
◼
►
and it was fun and it was interesting and it made me feel like I'm using I was
[TS]
00:08:07
◼
►
like that's why that's why associated with experience that we're not
[TS]
00:08:12
◼
►
consequence whenever and their dialogues and stuff and when it was gone I missed
[TS]
00:08:16
◼
►
it and in its place I didn't get ok well I miss D animation but it's so much
[TS]
00:08:20
◼
►
faster I got kind of boring maybe slightly faster but I can't even tell I
[TS]
00:08:26
◼
►
don't like the crossfade and so now I wish there was a way to turn the zooming
[TS]
00:08:30
◼
►
back on but keep the parallax off and this is like you know that this way lies
[TS]
00:08:35
◼
►
madness where it's like ok well we had an option to reduce motion but now some
[TS]
00:08:38
◼
►
people in this part of the motions ok this Parliament like this is kind of an
[TS]
00:08:43
◼
►
unhappily kinda
[TS]
00:08:43
◼
►
thing to do where you really something like this is our statements to Prague
[TS]
00:08:46
◼
►
but then you have to put in some option to turn some stuff off because there are
[TS]
00:08:49
◼
►
some legitimate issues with that and then you start tweaking that option and
[TS]
00:08:53
◼
►
it's just like it would be better if you could come up with one interface that
[TS]
00:08:56
◼
►
everybody likely to be has a problem with kind of like the original IOUs
[TS]
00:08:58
◼
►
where there were these motion sickness problems that weren't options like turn
[TS]
00:09:02
◼
►
off zooming or whatever the effects were when you go back and forth springboard
[TS]
00:09:05
◼
►
they nailed it better with that whereas I was seven seems to have more rough
[TS]
00:09:09
◼
►
edges and they like trying to figure out the balance of ok well have a switch to
[TS]
00:09:13
◼
►
turn off and have this thing to adjust that I i'm not in favor of them adding a
[TS]
00:09:17
◼
►
thousand options like a pic which parts of the motion you like I like the
[TS]
00:09:20
◼
►
parallax but I don't like $9 bucks I just like the last thing I want to say
[TS]
00:09:23
◼
►
it unlock screen or one that you can't do that right they have to just go with
[TS]
00:09:27
◼
►
one thing so in the end the messing with my wallpaper in the stupid generally
[TS]
00:09:32
◼
►
parallax annoys me more than I miss assuming but I really really do miss
[TS]
00:09:36
◼
►
assuming in fact if I could pick myself I would say keep the zooming in like
[TS]
00:09:40
◼
►
make it twice three times as fast and and that would make me happier on Monday
[TS]
00:09:45
◼
►
twice going to reduce the duration and doesn't mean like to hire promise not to
[TS]
00:09:49
◼
►
do that would it really make you happy
[TS]
00:09:52
◼
►
you know happier so that's all that surprised me about 70 300 guys feel
[TS]
00:09:57
◼
►
about it he did you upgrade 2703 and did you do you have reduced motion on animal
[TS]
00:10:03
◼
►
I did have it on be in 70 to an earlier I had an unjust because I just didn't
[TS]
00:10:10
◼
►
care about the parallax and there was a weird bug with the parallax we're like
[TS]
00:10:14
◼
►
if you if you launch an app in a certain orientation and annually to the phone
[TS]
00:10:19
◼
►
back of it closed the app goes back springboard for a split second it would
[TS]
00:10:23
◼
►
show the old position of the parallax and then update the new ones he'd see
[TS]
00:10:27
◼
►
like one wrong freemen jump to the next one that was just a stupid imitation bug
[TS]
00:10:32
◼
►
eyed see that as well and I like I don't like seeing graphics and move I don't
[TS]
00:10:36
◼
►
you know think should be moving like the dialog box assembly it's not it's not a
[TS]
00:10:40
◼
►
convincing the 3d effect is not convincing because the background for
[TS]
00:10:44
◼
►
round like this no actual parallax is trying to fake it with you know shifting
[TS]
00:10:48
◼
►
the background but to me it just click the Shipping with that because that is
[TS]
00:10:51
◼
►
what they're doing like it looks flat to me you know in the videos they show
[TS]
00:10:55
◼
►
looking like the icons are flooding but the screen but the illusion is not
[TS]
00:10:58
◼
►
maintained for me so all is basically making graphics like 110 the Raynham
[TS]
00:11:03
◼
►
from the pixel grid right thing they should be pinned down for no great
[TS]
00:11:06
◼
►
effect vs the zooming animation which i think really does provide kind of like a
[TS]
00:11:09
◼
►
sense of space where you are and sort of you know going with the different layers
[TS]
00:11:14
◼
►
it's not more so than any other living things I think the zooming in and out
[TS]
00:11:17
◼
►
from applications totally works to provide you with a three-dimensional
[TS]
00:11:21
◼
►
sense of space of where things are on the phone and I miss it when I have
[TS]
00:11:24
◼
►
intentionally not upgraded my iPad because of that it's my last class
[TS]
00:11:28
◼
►
bashing consuming I did see somebody who was with 73 and the crossfade enabled
[TS]
00:11:39
◼
►
and the very first time I saw that person would return to the home screen
[TS]
00:11:44
◼
►
from a nap I thought oh god that's terrible and I completely agree with you
[TS]
00:11:47
◼
►
that that zoom does give you a sense of place and I think it's kind of important
[TS]
00:11:54
◼
►
to the whole layered approach to Iowa 17 I should say we had some real time polyp
[TS]
00:11:58
◼
►
from a very reliable source that says the speed the animation speed duration
[TS]
00:12:04
◼
►
as you're saying is no different for the crossfader name no different 703 was fun
[TS]
00:12:10
◼
►
I did hear from a few people that that it is different on the iPhone 4 and for
[TS]
00:12:15
◼
►
us that because the devices are some a lot of people who have had those devices
[TS]
00:12:20
◼
►
told me on Twitter when I asked if it was faster that it's faster on those but
[TS]
00:12:25
◼
►
I i cant really get that sounds like maybe a coincidence or maybe maybe
[TS]
00:12:28
◼
►
placebo and I don't know I mean I i'm john i I had just to avoid the parallax
[TS]
00:12:36
◼
►
which i think will go down as iOS Evans pinstripes and as soon as the crossfade
[TS]
00:12:44
◼
►
became a thing I turned back on because I can't stand the crossfade there so bad
[TS]
00:12:50
◼
►
like these are two very extreme positions it's as if on Mac OS 10 as if
[TS]
00:12:56
◼
►
you minimize the window like every time you minimized or hit an application it
[TS]
00:13:01
◼
►
would do the big slow cheney effect it's like it's like that that was the only
[TS]
00:13:05
◼
►
option either that or
[TS]
00:13:07
◼
►
no animations at all and you know it's the reality is the best thing or
[TS]
00:13:11
◼
►
something in a little here and it's going to take apple you know maybe a
[TS]
00:13:16
◼
►
release or two before they can to tone down the new cool thing that I learned
[TS]
00:13:20
◼
►
to do and I should say John that even though I do quite like I should say
[TS]
00:13:27
◼
►
quite like the parallax but I don't mind the parallax except that I my lock
[TS]
00:13:31

►
screen image because i dont have children
[TS]
00:13:35
◼
►
aaron is my wife and I took that photo was actually very first photo I took my
[TS]
00:13:38
◼
►
3ds and does it is way too small to be parallax five or whatever you wanna call
[TS]
00:13:44
◼
►
it a nice always constantly see like a black bar at the top of the screen
[TS]
00:13:48
◼
►
drives me up a wall you can't can't have that you getting rid of that it's
[TS]
00:13:53
◼
►
terrible it is terrible and I haven't had a chance to find a picture that
[TS]
00:13:58
◼
►
works better as a lock screen image but that does drive me bonkers
[TS]
00:14:01
◼
►
you know she lives with you i i know i know about the picture I'm so close to
[TS]
00:14:06

doing like you know Content Aware Fill to extend the background of this picture
[TS]
00:14:09
◼
►
of my dogs like I get to have Photoshop I've I can make it happen here right
[TS]
00:14:15
◼
►
because I tried recreating it several different ways and realize just how you
[TS]
00:14:19
◼
►
can stretch it out this is not enough background and I use a black background
[TS]
00:14:25
◼
►
in springboard so there's no parallel in springboard but the dialog boxes all
[TS]
00:14:29
◼
►
have it I thought about to shift a couple pixels if I move my hand they

00:14:34

still was the dog photo taken any location you can get back to a rental

anything and user locals far as I can tell it all worked the only wow I had

laptop earlier today for a while and then it was perfectly fine I had
[TS]
00:26:48

homebrew and cocoa pods doing stuff and PHP on the command line doing stuff and
[TS]
00:26:54
◼

it all works just fine we talk about this but you've embraced Coco Pops now I
[TS]
00:26:59
◼

have yet when I want open source obscene model whenever that was like a month we
[TS]
00:27:05
◼
►
have two months ago whenever that was a bunch of people requested it in part
[TS]
00:27:10
◼

form and so I decided to install and start learning how to use cocoa pods and
[TS]
00:27:14
◼
►
yeah turns out it's good to know you know what I wrote an iPad app early this
[TS]
00:27:21
◼

year at work in and we had another guy come in and help us out and he told me
[TS]
00:27:28
◼
►
oh you you have to use cocoa pods its best thing ever and
[TS]
00:27:32
◼

approve and as it turns out he really is that good thing as programmers always
[TS]
00:27:38
◼

like every week there's a new tool that programmers are telling other programs
[TS]
00:27:43
◼
►
are you gotta use this is so great and they usually fizzle out and die because
[TS]
00:27:47
◼
►
they aren't that useful or necessary or mature and cocoa pods I wouldn't
[TS]
00:27:52
◼
►
necessarily call mature but it's close enough it works very well and it serves
[TS]
00:27:56
◼
►
a very good purpose that nothing else really serves us well if at all so it
[TS]
00:28:02
◼
►
works fine for me it is pretty poorly documented and for awhile txt workspaces
[TS]
00:28:08
◼
►
it would generate we're not that great and had different meanings and stuff but
[TS]
00:28:12
◼
►
if you update to the newest cocoa pods which there is no update command you
[TS]
00:28:18
◼
►
just run the gem install thing again then that fixes those things so i'm i'm
[TS]
00:28:23
◼

happy with it now
[TS]
00:28:24
◼

there was definitely a learning curve to get getting it installed and setup

and I have that all arranged by name and at least once a month it will forget
[TS]
00:30:07
◼

entirely about that and will be used differently you will have a sidebar when
[TS]
00:30:12

it shouldn't it'll be in the wrong position on the screen look at the wrong

size now have to come and Jay and I will see the launch checkbox that says we
[TS]
00:30:19
◼

show an icon moat is checked even though it has totally changed my view options
[TS]
00:30:24

and I'll send it back to the right thing and it may be too bad install our

overriding the de estar file whatever you know it's just it has no respect for

the work I put into it so I tried to avoid that I try to avoid the finders
[TS]
00:30:35

much as possible just what's the point like this is a section of the Rio that I
[TS]
00:30:38
◼

didn't write that I started writing and I said you know what stop stop writing
[TS]
00:30:41
◼

this is right about this forever I was gonna run in the final section you know
[TS]
00:30:47
◼

go on a big digression about that but this whole topic trying to give an
[TS]
00:30:52
◼

analogy to people who you know people don't understand this whole thing and I
[TS]
00:30:54
◼

think it's stupid but it's not and I put in at 10 cents to that effect in their
[TS]
00:30:59

view that's all the remains of the what could have been a you know three
[TS]
00:31:02

thousand-word digression that everyone would have been pissed about how would

00:31:07
◼

you feel if once a month you picked up your phone and all the icons of spring
[TS]
00:31:11
◼
►
water all over the place like would you go back and rearrangement of the way you
[TS]
00:31:15
◼
►
want them again after that happens three times two times maybe I'm just once when
[TS]
00:31:19
◼
►
you just give up and go well forget it I guess who search for everything or I'll
[TS]
00:31:23
◼
►
just try to have them sort alphabetically and hope they stay that
[TS]
00:31:26
◼

like that and then you just accept that and if someone said no no the last
[TS]
00:31:31
◼
►
spring why can't they should remember where they are seeking arrangement who's
[TS]
00:31:34
◼
►
going to our range on the icon so stupid as to many applications anyway you know
[TS]
00:31:39
◼
►
no one is going to arrange all their stuff like that just accept that you
[TS]
00:31:42
◼
►
search for their alphabetical
[TS]
00:31:43
◼
►
and that's the state of the Finder that you know it doesn't respect any work you
[TS]
00:31:47
◼
►
do to to get things arranged the way you want them to have this window off to the
[TS]
00:31:50
◼
►
left in this view and the size and the scroll position and the selection
[TS]
00:31:54
◼

statement and that went over there to do this like no one's gonna do that because
[TS]
00:31:57
◼

you know they work you put in it may help you for the session are here but
[TS]
00:32:01
◼
►
tomorrow or next week or whatever it'll be changed and you open a window and
[TS]
00:32:05
◼
►
will be in the wrong spot and I have a sidebar no more respect here you know
[TS]
00:32:08
◼
►
you options you pick to the sort of the UK or whatever and some people give up
[TS]
00:32:12
◼
►
and just like I guess I can't do that and i hear all the same arguments like
[TS]
00:32:16
◼
►
well I just too many files that works and what doesn't work when you have that
[TS]
00:32:20
◼
►
it's not like saying we'll have to any applications even people with a
[TS]
00:32:23
◼
►
bazillion applications with screens all folders and we've all seen those people
[TS]
00:32:26
◼

are used to hit the 11 page limit on springboard even those people
[TS]
00:32:31
◼

screen one of the very least or even like a range screen one and then after
[TS]
00:32:36
◼
►
that it's just you know folder Landon just a big mess right but even they will
[TS]
00:32:39
◼
►
arrange to bring one and even if you don't arrange screen 10 it's all just a
[TS]
00:32:42
◼

route see if all this I was your search even those people I feel like would
[TS]
00:32:46
◼

carefully picked for items that are in their little doc fix thing over and over
[TS]
00:32:50
◼

like there's always something in your life that benefits from you putting the
[TS]
00:32:55
◼

way you want it known where everything is using special recognition of what
[TS]
00:33:00
◼

size is it what color is it what position is it on the screen when I put
[TS]
00:33:03
◼

it there stays there are no where it is I can orient myself to it and those of
[TS]
00:33:07
◼

the few common things you doing and how many files we getting around how many
[TS]
00:33:10
◼

applications getting around how big hard drives get this always going to be some
[TS]
00:33:13
◼

working side of things that you would benefit from if you could arrange them
[TS]
00:33:17
◼
►
just so and have them where you want them and that I continued to rail
[TS]
00:33:22
◼
►
against then I wish people at Apple understood that could someone does
[TS]
00:33:25
◼
►
because springboard its relentlessly spatial in terms of arranging things and
[TS]
00:33:28
◼

if you've ever had this happen and I have with iOS but we're springboard does

use finder test John this is why we love you and it's not because I don't like 10

mile of tests using a browser craziest because I know if I mess with any of

their browser stuff

going to be screened my own tiny little toe hold that I have on the spatial

00:34:00

state and that's not it's not because they had two brothers to have separate
[TS]
00:34:04

browser windows in browser windows I would use the browser way more than I
[TS]
00:34:08
◼

would love to attach their you think it's it's a little bit lesser priority
[TS]
00:34:12
◼

of making that stuff that reliable on on Mac rather than a mile west because you
[TS]
00:34:17
◼

and I Wes this spring board is is the only way to launch apps and is by far
[TS]
00:34:22
◼
►
the most common way for our users and programmers who work on iOS to launch
[TS]
00:34:27
◼
►
their apps springboard as a spotlight exists but you know it's certainly a
[TS]
00:34:33
◼
►
little bit clumsy to use over the just trying to find a patient having an icon
[TS]
00:34:39
◼
►
whereas in the Mac I i suspect that most programmers who work on OS 10 and most
[TS]
00:34:46
◼
►
power users who would be most irritated by this kind of stuff probably don't
[TS]
00:34:50
◼
►
open Finder windows very frequently to navigate to their applications or files
[TS]
00:34:54
◼
►
they probably are using things like water parks over or at least spotlight
[TS]
00:34:58
◼
►
to do you know quick keyboard based launching and finding of things but much
[TS]
00:35:03
◼
►
more often do you think maybe just like not much of a pain point I mean it's not
[TS]
00:35:08
◼
►
like the the design of the restaurant finder precludes them doing this it's
[TS]
00:35:15
◼
►
not like it's like they just took the box it will be fine its just designed
[TS]
00:35:18
◼

not to work that way because there's it's not clear when you're rearranging
[TS]
00:35:22
◼
►
something if what you rearrange what what effect with your rear engine has
[TS]
00:35:26
◼

because if you have a browser window and you browse through stuff and you make
[TS]
00:35:30
◼

changes as you go are you what are you making changes to like it's the
[TS]
00:35:33
◼

difference of chain window as a device that you peer through to see the

00:35:38
◼

contents of your file system and window as the spatial manifestation of a

00:35:43

particular director John Diskin you can't combine those like it once you can
[TS]
00:35:46
◼

change a window from one to the other
[TS]
00:35:48
◼

what happens when you transform suddenly the spatial state of the window
[TS]
00:35:51
◼
►
something apply itself to the folder in your Transformer to get rid of the
[TS]
00:35:54
◼
►
sidebar and reverse like this no sensible way to do it so there's nothing
[TS]
00:35:58
◼
►
they can do short of actually separating those two views and the non
[TS]
00:36:03
◼
►
user-friendliness of the Finder is tied to the nine user friendly as the file
[TS]
00:36:06
◼

system so that this also doesn't solve that
[TS]
00:36:09
◼
►
problem like the fact is a bazillion files in there all over the place and
[TS]
00:36:12
◼
►
people don't know what to do with them like this the reason I S a successful
[TS]
00:36:16
◼
►
busy getting rid of that it's like you know people can't handle faucets they
[TS]
00:36:19
◼
►
can handle open save dialog boxes they just simply cannot handle it so we need
[TS]
00:36:23
◼
►
to get that away from them and springboard is great you know a great
[TS]
00:36:26
◼
►
solution to that problem especially in the context of Pendle devices
[TS]
00:36:30
◼
►
maybe it doesn't apply entirely to the back of the Dead launch pad and
[TS]
00:36:33
◼

everything like that but the problems the problems of the file system are not
[TS]
00:36:38
◼

going to go away he suddenly you know make the Finder space on our because
[TS]
00:36:41
◼

designed especially for years and people still couldn't handle it but you know
[TS]
00:36:44
◼
►
the average person but the few people could it really did let you measure
[TS]
00:36:48
◼
►
stuff in a nicer manner and we've got many more interesting advanced
[TS]
00:36:52
◼
►
technologies in that spot like Quicksilver all that good stuff plus
[TS]
00:36:56
◼
►
tons of really good and application management stuff like the sidebars and
[TS]
00:36:59
◼
►
the very end the source listen to various applications to give you a view
[TS]
00:37:02
◼
►
of your stuff without giving mood at showing you a view of your desk that's
[TS]
00:37:07
◼
►
all good stuff comes up but the Finder is is not what it could be
[TS]
00:37:11
◼
►
and I don't think it's because of that is not a priority is just that but I
[TS]
00:37:16
◼
►
guess it is not a priority because they like well it doesn't work that well and
[TS]
00:37:20
◼
►
we don't have a real strong philosophy farmer trying to satisfy everybody in an
[TS]
00:37:23
◼
►
upset as I know it really in the grand scheme of things the Finder is way less
[TS]
00:37:26
◼
►
important that used to be in that is true so you know that taps why not
[TS]
00:37:33
◼
►
well the funny thing is the reason I brought this up two hours ago was
[TS]
00:37:36
◼
►
because I was just i was just wondering after having reread your view
[TS]
00:37:41
◼
►
why it was I was still opening like two or three Finder windows in order to drag
[TS]
00:37:46
◼
►
things between folders directories whatever when I've completely forgotten
[TS]
00:37:51
◼
►
that tabs were even a thing in Mavericks you want to see the source and the
[TS]
00:37:55
◼
►
destination of the same time
[TS]
00:37:56
◼
►
yeah that's a very fair point but to be honest I would probably do just as well
[TS]
00:38:02
◼
►
by getting one tab with the source the other tablets destination that would be
[TS]
00:38:05
◼
►
sufficient and that's why I actually really like this is a completely on
[TS]
00:38:10
◼
►
sponsored plug I really like the app drag-n-drop which is like the animal
[TS]
00:38:15
◼
►
Dragon drop but its upon for drag-and-drop
[TS]
00:38:19
◼
►
yeah exactly did you know there's a really funny joke in his review about
[TS]
00:38:24
◼
►
iceman anyway the point is this little app you jiggle your mouse and a little
[TS]
00:38:32
◼
►
like a tooltip sort of context I'm told it's a little bit but it's a little
[TS]
00:38:38
◼
►
things little window that pops up and you can drop something that you had in
[TS]
00:38:42
◼
►
your that you're dragging on to this little window that is on top of all
[TS]
00:38:46
◼
►
other windows and then you can go about your business do whatever you need to do
[TS]
00:38:49
◼
►
and then dragged away from the drag-and-drop window onto whatever you
[TS]
00:38:54
◼
►
want to put it on to the use case being 100 window you find the file you want
[TS]
00:38:59
◼
►
you pick it up in your mouth you drop it on the drag-and-drop window go to that
[TS]
00:39:03
◼
►
same original Finder window and Rhian go to wherever you want this file to be and
[TS]
00:39:09
◼
►
then bring the file from the drag-and-drop window back into that
[TS]
00:39:13
◼
►
original Finder window which is now planning to the new destination that was
[TS]
00:39:16
◼
►
a terrible way of describing it but the point I'm driving out is there other
[TS]
00:39:19
◼
►
options other than just tabs that I used constantly but yet just today I found
[TS]
00:39:24
◼
►
myself somehow deciding to open two or three Finder windows to do this when I
[TS]
00:39:29
◼
►
really should have just embraced finder tips that drag and drop things the shelf
[TS]
00:39:33
◼
►
from next step so everything old is new again you know that having that
[TS]
00:39:38
◼
►
intermediary placed
[TS]
00:39:40
◼
►
to keep things you know it's a reasonable idea but a certain point you
[TS]
00:39:43
◼
►
can't have like every
[TS]
00:39:44
◼
►
they did it because they want their trying to simplify the interfaces know
[TS]
00:39:48
◼
►
the next doc was you know more complicated than the original Apple dock
[TS]
00:39:54
◼
►
and the shelf goes away but the others lots of replacement type things to say
[TS]
00:39:57
◼
►
you know till I just split up in operation into two pieces here I think I
[TS]
00:40:02
◼
►
found here and you know it makes sense when I know a lot of people who would
[TS]
00:40:10
◼
►
always have the way they use the OS 10 finer is the only way to her house to
[TS]
00:40:14
◼
►
browser windows one on top or on bottom line in left to right and they were just
[TS]
00:40:19
◼
►
arrange them every time those windows rearrange themselves or resize
[TS]
00:40:23
◼
►
themselves anyway and they use it kinda like transmit the panic FTP app the left
[TS]
00:40:28
◼
►
side would be sourcing the right side of the destination that's how they move
[TS]
00:40:31
◼
►
files they were navigate with the browser thing in one place navigate but
[TS]
00:40:34
◼
►
the other thing and then move the files crosswise like that and that's one way
[TS]
00:40:38
◼
►
to operate albeit insufficient because that's what they really wanted was
[TS]
00:40:41
◼
►
basically transmitted with a big arrow in between and so they can navigate
[TS]
00:40:44
◼
►
navigate narrow one direction or the other than two hours but yeah so
[TS]
00:40:50
◼
►
anything else on finders ok let's see what else 2010 I wanted to make an
[TS]
00:40:59
◼
►
observation perhaps more than than have a question which is there were a couple
[TS]
00:41:04
◼
►
of spots were you through in these just extremely passionate like one-liners and
[TS]
00:41:10
◼
►
the you made mention of one earlier which was my guess was about finder
[TS]
00:41:17
◼
►
where you said some people don't care about this distinction between browser
[TS]
00:41:20
◼
►
and whatever the other kind of underwear do is think it's academic and and well
[TS]
00:41:24
◼
►
alright and what they think its academic an important next sentence they are
[TS]
00:41:28
◼
►
wrong and there was another instance what was it about I wrote down internal
[TS]
00:41:34
◼
►
vigilance I was notification center about how whether whether you want your
[TS]
00:41:39
◼
►
people around you to be able to see who's I am in your who's tweeting out
[TS]
00:41:42
◼

your whatever the case may be and so you could choose to have in the case of
[TS]
00:41:47
◼
►
I am you could have kind of the details hidden on notification center but that
[TS]
00:41:53
◼
►
may not that is less useful if you're the only one looking at the computer and
[TS]
00:41:56
◼
►
so she made this like one off about how you up to the other penalty for this is
[TS]
00:42:00
◼
►
yet to be eternally vigilant as to who is within I shot of your machine and I i
[TS]
00:42:05
◼
►
dont again I don't think there's much more question here but I just love those
[TS]
00:42:09
◼
►
little one-liners where it was completely clear exactly what you felt
[TS]
00:42:14
◼

and if any of us disagree we are just completely wrong and that's the end of
[TS]
00:42:18
◼

the Damned the academic thing is like this part of a broader point where
[TS]
00:42:22
◼

people fall into the trap where if if they don't understand ur can see the
[TS]
00:42:27

not you don't have to understand what makes a good song to appreciate a good

song right but you also can't say if someone describes like some musical

00:42:51

concept to me like I don't understand that's not important to hit songs you

don't know what makes a good song about your job you don't have to know what

makes a good song all you have to know is how to enjoy some guy like the song

part of it and things they shouldn't have to understand it's like my goal I'm
[TS]
00:43:51
◼

kind of talking to a pillow is with these things like as I want to tell
[TS]
00:43:53
◼
►
people about you know the philosophy underlying these things
[TS]
00:43:57
◼
►
I think would be a good idea or whatever but it shouldn't be their job to
[TS]
00:44:00
◼
►
understand it is not I don't i dont nothing hinges on convincing themselves
[TS]
00:44:04
◼
►
at this point I'm not like I'm done trying to convince the end users that
[TS]
00:44:07
◼
►
this would make a good interface and your best bet at this try to convince
[TS]
00:44:11
◼
►
someone who has the power to make an interesting thing is a lot of a lot of
[TS]
00:44:15
◼
►
software developers have read what I've talked about on this topic and tried to
[TS]
00:44:18
◼
►
incorporate some of those things into their designs with very little success I
[TS]
00:44:22
◼
►
my dad and I would say Apple itself is one of the few companies that has
[TS]
00:44:26
◼
►
incorporated in springboard and the whole iowa's user interface is the
[TS]
00:44:32
◼
►
comfort and the stability and you know the the sort of approachable is that
[TS]
00:44:36
◼
►
people fear 0 with that little grid of icons that you can move around from one
[TS]
00:44:39
◼
►
screen together that is like the ultimate victory of all of these
[TS]
00:44:42
◼
►
concepts that everyone thought were stupid and their eyes that got a one off
[TS]
00:44:47
◼
►
because like I said that is the big honkin section their view that every
[TS]
00:44:50
◼
►
time our interview I stop myself from running more or less
[TS]
00:44:52
◼
►
covered it but it's still totally there and I wasn't interested in engaging on
[TS]
00:44:57
◼
►
it and the other one the eternal vigilance thing like that's that's again
[TS]
00:45:02
◼
►
even more true violence because you know what it's like and I was like you know
[TS]
00:45:05
◼
►
people who are cast how often do we go into preferences and like go on patrol
[TS]
00:45:12
◼
►
notifications thing and location settings you don't even like her alot
[TS]
00:45:16
◼
►
notification you're you're you're allowed to have banners you're allowed
[TS]
00:45:20
◼
►
to make sounds you're not allowed
[TS]
00:45:22
◼
►
you still an application you go in there I just think you're not allowed push
[TS]
00:45:25
◼
►
notifications like all these things are great but if you wanna have a nice
[TS]
00:45:29
◼
►
experience and not just feeling overwhelmed by beating things popping in
[TS]
00:45:32
◼
►
your face the prices you have to spend some time in like in the notification
[TS]
00:45:37
◼
►
mines throwing the toggle switches last year right and just deciding what you
[TS]
00:45:40
◼
►
want and exactly the same thing Notification Center which I love it also
[TS]
00:45:44
◼
►
means that if I don't pay attention and I saw five new applications they'll be
[TS]
00:45:50
◼
►
throwing stuff up and they'll be flying by Notification Center sidebar and
[TS]
00:45:53
◼
►
they'll be doing stuff and I got to go in there and say oh yeah no not you know
[TS]
00:45:56
◼
►
banners no sounds notice you know all that stuff and if you don't do that you
[TS]
00:46:00
◼
►
will eventually be overwhelmed you like Iowa sucks everything goes beyond my
[TS]
00:46:04
◼
►
face like well they give all the application developers these things and
[TS]
00:46:07
◼
►
they give the users control in a way that Apple usually doesn't
[TS]
00:46:10
◼
►
like Apple usually isn't in the business of giving you a gigantic wall toggle
[TS]
00:46:15
◼
►
switches but in the case notifications they do and I think it's probably the
[TS]
00:46:19
◼
►
only way you can do it because only the user can decide what's important enough
[TS]
00:46:23
◼
►
to them to you know deep in their face and how annoying as a dialog box versus
[TS]
00:46:27
◼
►
the sound vs Banner vs something appearing in a sidebar
[TS]
00:46:31
◼
►
the point of that one yeah and I really do love them in in in I think part of
[TS]
00:46:36
◼
►
the reason I enjoy them so much is because I tend to waffle I don't know
[TS]
00:46:41
◼
►
what's ahead on a fitting one happens to have noticed this and I love when you
[TS]
00:46:45
◼
►
just come out and it's just that's the way it is like it or not and and I just
[TS]
00:46:49
◼
►
really enjoy it
[TS]
00:46:50
◼
►
market you want tell us about something else that's awesome I would love to it
[TS]
00:46:54
◼
►
is yet another repeat sponsor because we have the best sponsors it is in fact
[TS]
00:46:58
◼
►
oxygen by Ram objects and it's spelled oxygen with an E on the end so oxigene
[TS]
00:47:05
◼
►
but they insisted pronounced oxygen so if you write applications for different
[TS]
00:47:09
◼
►
platforms including the Mac iOS Android Windows or even Windows Phone if you're
[TS]
00:47:14
◼
►
if you actually use Windows Phone then you should really take a look at the
[TS]
00:47:18
◼
►
oxygen language from rare objects software now we know what you're
[TS]
00:47:22
◼
►
thinking but let us assure you that oxygen is not yet another attempt at a
[TS]
00:47:26
◼
►
write once run badly everywhere solution to app development we've seen a lot of
[TS]
00:47:31
◼
►
those oxygen lets you create fully native apps on each platform and gives
[TS]
00:47:37
◼
►
you full unrestricted access the API is native to his platform so whether it's
[TS]
00:47:42
◼
►
the cocoa API's on Mac and iOS the dotnet framework on Windows Casey or the
[TS]
00:47:47
◼
►
Java in Android libraries with oxygen you can still write apps specifically
[TS]
00:47:51
◼
►
for each platform but you can do so using the same modern language IDE
[TS]
00:47:56
◼
►
removing the need for you for you or your developers to learn different
[TS]
00:48:00
◼
►
languages and switch between different environments all the time for the
[TS]
00:48:03
◼
►
different platforms oxygen is based on Object Pascal Pascale I never learned it
[TS]
00:48:10
◼
►
I spent like a weaker to learning it at some point actually it might have been
[TS]
00:48:14
◼
►
in computer camp and we can do a whole deep dive into the psychosis behind that
[TS]
00:48:18
◼
►
but if you believe it wasn't computer can I learn
[TS]
00:48:22
◼
►
very briefly when asked how I went to band camp and I thought that was the
[TS]
00:48:25
◼
►
nerdiest thing ever but I think he's been me know either I never use passcode
[TS]
00:48:29
◼
►
I think I may have written you know a couple pages of Pasco back when you
[TS]
00:48:34
◼
►
program the Mac in Pasco that's a long time ago but didn't do anything useful
[TS]
00:48:38
◼
►
it any chess camp is worse anyway jim is based on Object Pascal has revamped and
[TS]
00:48:45
◼
►
revitalize for the 21st century it's a fully object-oriented language it's easy
[TS]
00:48:50
◼
►
to learn and produces easy to maintain code and has many sophisticated language
[TS]
00:48:54
◼
►
enhancements or features that make it easier to write a synchronous and
[TS]
00:48:58
◼
►
paralyzed code to things like class contracts make your code more robust and
[TS]
00:49:02
◼
►
easier test oxygen comes with the Visual Studio IDE for the tool chains for all
[TS]
00:49:08
◼
►
platforms come together for example you can build deploy and debugging is your
[TS]
00:49:12
◼
►
iOS and Android device right from the IDE you find out more by visiting RAM
[TS]
00:49:17
◼
►
objects dot com slash oxygen on the end of that and Delanie full free trial
[TS]
00:49:22
◼
►
that's RAM I'm text.com / oxygen 0 XY G&E and by the way if you use discount
[TS]
00:49:28
◼
►
code ATP 13 before the ATP to the year of 2013 thats 20% off all products
[TS]
00:49:37
◼
►
oxygen or otherwise so thanks a lot to ram objects and oxygen for sponsoring a
[TS]
00:49:43
◼
►
show that's actually a somewhat pression segue into what I was going to ask next
[TS]
00:49:52
◼
►
which is a lot of the review John I would say is relatively high level and
[TS]
00:49:59
◼
►
approachable for just about anyone even non developers and then the next thing I
[TS]
00:50:04
◼
►
know I'm looking at hex dumps file extended file attributes whatever
[TS]
00:50:10
◼
►
they're called and my question to you is at what point do you decide you're going
[TS]
00:50:15
◼
►
to deep into the nerdery and pull yourself back out is there any sort of
[TS]
00:50:21
◼
►
decision making process of decision tree or is it just you doin not to get your
[TS]
00:50:25
◼
►
point across and that's that
[TS]
00:50:26
◼
►
also there so many things in the new release that I could write about this is
[TS]
00:50:30
◼
►
the internal struggle with any news reviews and this is why I can't seem to
[TS]
00:50:32
◼
►
resist the description of a comprehensive
[TS]
00:50:36
◼
►
gonna be like there are so many topics and I go into it topics that I'm
[TS]
00:50:41
◼
►
interested do and I i mean in dev tools alone I could spend a million years just
[TS]
00:50:45
◼
►
on Xcode and clanging LLVM and like all the things they do the language every
[TS]
00:50:50
◼
►
year and some years I have done that I did that when the DGC did and you know
[TS]
00:50:54
◼
►
like but then I didn't do it when they were you know doing properties in dot
[TS]
00:50:57
◼
►
syntax right so there's just too much to cover right and I have to decide you
[TS]
00:51:03
◼
►
know which one of these things is really makes a difference in someone's ass next
[TS]
00:51:07
◼
►
up indoors you really really has nothing to do with the OS but i think is
[TS]
00:51:10
◼
►
important for the platform like it's this is more of a state of the platform
[TS]
00:51:13
◼
►
type of you and using the release of us as a as a point to talk about it but
[TS]
00:51:18
◼
►
even within the OSI does that leave stuff out right and I try to pick some
[TS]
00:51:22
◼
►
features that I think are either important or you know could be important
[TS]
00:51:26
◼
►
to use his or highlight something about Apple's design philosophy or you know
[TS]
00:51:30
◼
►
and so lot of things get dropped on the cutting room floor and but tags you know
[TS]
00:51:34
◼
►
tax fits all the criteria to feature that without it you know all the time
[TS]
00:51:37
◼
►
it's it's a feature that builds on technologies that they added over many
[TS]
00:51:41
◼
►
many years that I've been following closely so it doesn't like this you know
[TS]
00:51:45
◼
►
breadcrumb trail of like how do we get where we are today you going back to you
[TS]
00:51:50
◼
►
know the metadata stuff and found them extensions and then finally getting
[TS]
00:51:53
◼
►
extended attributes and then spotlight leveraging that and then like now
[TS]
00:51:58
◼
►
finally we're at a point where we can you take this done so many third-party
[TS]
00:52:00
◼
►
applications that leverage its exact same infrastructure should do similar
[TS]
00:52:03
◼
►
things with with the tags and now it's a built-in feature of the US and the
[TS]
00:52:08
◼
►
reason I went deep on it is because you know I'm I talk I'm talking about the
[TS]
00:52:13
◼
►
implementation and i dont have to explain the implantation first
[TS]
00:52:16
◼
►
principles because if you've been following along you know and i could
[TS]
00:52:19
◼
►
link back to you know member we talked about extended attributes member we
[TS]
00:52:22
◼
►
talked about spotlight like you know it builds on its like any kind of you know
[TS]
00:52:25
◼
►
school chorus with you to build on the information you learn the previous
[TS]
00:52:29
◼
►
semester to learn new things you don't have to go back over it again and in
[TS]
00:52:33
◼
►
particular when it comes to tags like this you know it's scary to see like
[TS]
00:52:37
◼
►
that but I explained it to a level that I thought
[TS]
00:52:40
◼
►
anybody reading could understand like you know I had to like you know
[TS]
00:52:44
◼
►
explained exactly like okay with this number in taxes this and therefore that
[TS]
00:52:48
◼
►
number involved and it has a you know understanding the history of tags and
[TS]
00:52:53
◼
►
the particular mutation explains why it works the way it does why are there only
[TS]
00:52:56
◼
►
seven colors why can have repeat colors but the different names like all and all
[TS]
00:53:01
◼
►
these weird behaviour it if you're just testing like it works in strange ways
[TS]
00:53:04
◼
►
sometimes the name of this machine will be here the color was different but that
[TS]
00:53:09
◼
►
the tag name was the same when I did a search and you know all these things
[TS]
00:53:13
◼
►
that would be inexplicable once you understand the implementation that's not
[TS]
00:53:16
◼
►
bad complicated 10 now I know why they only have seven colors and now I know
[TS]
00:53:21
◼
►
you know the names changed and now I know why it's sort of backward
[TS]
00:53:25
◼
►
compatible labels cause I know how labels marks and I understand why you
[TS]
00:53:28
◼
►
know they can't have all the labels labels only have this one but field and
[TS]
00:53:32
◼
►
so has to pick and they chose to pick up the last time the applied against Texas
[TS]
00:53:36
◼
►
you're up here and why are they in a big x&o blog because they do property listed
[TS]
00:53:40
◼
►
as a big thing in Pakistan and put into one big blocks a spot like an index that
[TS]
00:53:43
◼
►
is a symbol you know like it all comes together like that the details of the
[TS]
00:53:47
◼
►
implementation help you understand why the features work the way it does and I
[TS]
00:53:51
◼
►
tried to get into like the tradeoffs of like what they had done this way there
[TS]
00:53:54
◼
►
would be more pure than they were under strong back while they did it this way
[TS]
00:53:57
◼
►
what happens if you change the name tag and you got ten thousand files and
[TS]
00:54:00
◼
►
you're just like that will you see a progress dialog kind of gross and you
[TS]
00:54:04
◼
►
could have different types with different names in different machines
[TS]
00:54:06
◼
►
and if that discuss an online change the name when you bring it back online
[TS]
00:54:09
◼
►
things are going to match and you know it in some senses revealing the
[TS]
00:54:13
◼
►
implantation but I think I think it explains how to feature works better
[TS]
00:54:16
◼
►
than trying to like true stable it out and saying when you click here and do
[TS]
00:54:19
◼
►
this and do that this happened like you know because I think tags do have enough
[TS]
00:54:24
◼
►
we are dedicated people to start clicking around they wouldn't understand
[TS]
00:54:27
◼
►
why they work the way you and this is the type of section that are going to be
[TS]
00:54:30
◼
►
linking people back to for years to come
[TS]
00:54:32
◼
►
and already is getting in a people like texted the strange thing I don't
[TS]
00:54:36
◼
►
understand why just linked to the section like 1230 ok well now I know
[TS]
00:54:41
◼
►
what happened when I did that and I completely understand why it behaved in
[TS]
00:54:44
◼
►
this particular way and you feel like going all the way down to hex is is a
[TS]
00:54:50
◼
►
reasonable amount of depth
[TS]
00:54:53
◼
►
for a normal human being to understand I walk through a step at a time like
[TS]
00:54:58
◼
►
here's the contents of the thing and here's what it looks like and you know
[TS]
00:55:00
◼
►
and linking back and if you don't know what a property list is linked to the
[TS]
00:55:04
◼
►
documentation this property no property list server using Pakistan to start
[TS]
00:55:08
◼
►
later this is I think anyone can understand property this is not you know
[TS]
00:55:12
◼
►
you don't know the intimate details of when you read a commission like oh this
[TS]
00:55:15
◼
►
is a nice way to store like semi structured simple data with like strings
[TS]
00:55:18
◼
►
and numbers and stuff and you know Apple uses it alot in their different
[TS]
00:55:22
◼
►
structure so make sense that they were used to store then you come back they're
[TS]
00:55:24
◼
►
reading you know extended attributes go read about the clothes are coming out a
[TS]
00:55:29
◼
►
new stature in the given name here it is like it may take somebody who doesn't
[TS]
00:55:33
◼
►
know anything about it awhile to go back through gonna stop anybody who has been
[TS]
00:55:37
◼
►
following along should you know breeze through
[TS]
00:55:39
◼
►
actually part of the reason why it took me long at this year to read it in last
[TS]
00:55:42
◼
►
year's because I follows me those links and and got lost on things like the
[TS]
00:55:46
◼
►
Wikipedia page about UNIX demons and things like that and I like to just just
[TS]
00:55:53
◼
►
used the word dealing with the eighth before the year and just assume
[TS]
00:55:56
◼
►
everybody knows what it means I don't wanna explain what that is but if you
[TS]
00:55:58
◼
►
doubt the Wikipedia page explains what they are and you could come back fairly
[TS]
00:56:01
◼
►
quickly unless you know you like it was interesting like you but you already
[TS]
00:56:05
◼
►
knew what they were doing and just went there
[TS]
00:56:07
◼
►
out of academic curiosity and then got lost but I'm trying to just bring
[TS]
00:56:10
◼
►
everybody long even if I already know what a demon is I will follow that link
[TS]
00:56:15
◼
►
just so you know I bet there's something about this I don't know and sure enough
[TS]
00:56:18
◼
►
there is lots there I didn't know so it was definitely worth it
[TS]
00:56:22
◼
►
yes I mean sometimes you know you need to know everything about like in that
[TS]
00:56:25
◼
►
particular I'm just trying to make sure everyone is following along and said
[TS]
00:56:28
◼
►
hunt explained what had a menace because that's that's cumbersome like I want to
[TS]
00:56:31
◼
►
assume that there are some common share knowledge here but I but if I can help
[TS]
00:56:36
◼
►
someone out by going oh I didn't know that was the word for that and white
[TS]
00:56:39
◼
►
spelled funny like that but no one ever this Wikipedia page explains you know
[TS]
00:56:43
◼
►
what these things are and why they have a funny name and I can come back and
[TS]
00:56:46
◼
►
continue but in other cases like I'm trying to add an additional color
[TS]
00:56:52
◼
►
through what I link link to it and it's not the obviously it's a link that makes
[TS]
00:56:56
◼
►
a statement about the the word or phrase that adds it usually says adding a
[TS]
00:57:00
◼
►
little bit of extra opinion about how I feel about something or whatever
[TS]
00:57:03
◼
►
you know how to follow that link if you are doing over the thing is but you will
[TS]
00:57:07
◼
►
get more information even if you just mass over the links you like I think I
[TS]
00:57:11
◼
►
know where that leads you mouse over there because you kinda know what my
[TS]
00:57:14
◼
►
opinion is gonna be maybe you don't know when you click through it so it is back

to the linking think some people find a tiring to do that just want to read as
[TS]
00:57:22
◼
►
you could read straight through you understand every time you don't need to
[TS]
00:57:24
◼
►
but links do add stuff maybe maybe it's like a replay value in a game you get
[TS]
00:57:29
◼
►
repaid reading of going back to sections and following links going back a sec to
[TS]
00:57:35
◼
►
the to the tags implementation details one reason I actually really enjoyed
[TS]
00:57:40
◼
►
that section is because when I see feature like tags
[TS]
00:57:45
◼
►
you know i i rely a lot on the file system for organization and I and i know
[TS]
00:57:50
◼
►
that might seem like an obvious statement but like I can I rely more
[TS]
00:57:54
◼
►
than most people do in that I i tend to not use things like everything bucket
[TS]
00:57:59
◼
►
apps or apps to maintain their own organizational database like aperture
[TS]
00:58:02
◼
►
and then the faucet was kind of haphazard or hidden from you I i avoid
[TS]
00:58:07
◼
►
that kind of thing and I i really use the file system as a major
[TS]
00:58:11
◼
►
organizational point much like our friend dr. drang I i really believe in
[TS]
00:58:14
◼
►
doing things that way and one of the reasons is because it is very resilient
[TS]
00:58:21
◼
►
to both data problems and software problems like for example failed disks
[TS]
00:58:28
◼
►
like you can you can pull a directory tree off a backup and it doesn't matter
[TS]
00:58:32
◼
►
if the backup like was from some service or media or software they didn't support
[TS]
00:58:36
◼
►
certain Mac extended attribute implementation or anything like that you
[TS]
00:58:40
◼
►
know and it also ages very well in that if I change software using of a change
[TS]
00:58:46
◼
►
my text editor I don't have to change the directory structure with a short
[TS]
00:58:51
◼
►
text files like everything is more independent from each other and and so
[TS]
00:58:55
◼
►
on and so I find that the more I can do just file system management of things
[TS]
00:59:03
◼
►
that generally happier and easier and more resilient my setup is and so when I
[TS]
00:59:07
◼
►
see a new feature added like tax I have to you know before I think about using
[TS]
00:59:12
◼
►
it has been ok
[TS]
00:59:14
◼
►
houses gonna fit into long-term organization like on the disc like
[TS]
00:59:19
◼
►
because if there was some central system database file that maintained all the
[TS]
00:59:24
◼
►
tag relationships or if it was in if it was baked into like you know some kind
[TS]
00:59:29
◼
►
of allocation table in the file system in something like that where it's not
[TS]
00:59:32
◼
►
just in the file or next to the file that would be a lot less resilient
[TS]
00:59:37
◼
►
because then like if you back up you know if you copy a directory to a backup
[TS]
00:59:42
◼
►
drive or if your backup software doesn't know a thing is to find that data then
[TS]
00:59:48
◼
►
if you restore from that or if you come down to a new machine or removing it
[TS]
00:59:52
◼
►
here laptop to work on it for a trip or something that doesn't come with it and
[TS]
00:59:55
◼
►
that sucks and so it was really good to know
[TS]
00:59:58
◼
►
with your filesystem stuff that it isn't mine in such a way that it will be
[TS]
01:00:05
◼
►
fairly resilient and it will be fairly portable unfairly aging friendly at
[TS]
01:00:11
◼
►
least not asian persuasion friendly as long as the tools and questioned support
[TS]
01:00:17
◼
►
extended attributes that we've had like six years or seven how long has it been
[TS]
01:00:21
◼
►
since ten-point 4224 all the tools to get up to speed on pay you know extended
[TS]
01:00:27
◼
►
out to be serious thing and and Apple includes so many things to extended
[TS]
01:00:31
◼
►
attributes like all time machine realizing I'm just a workout alright the
[TS]
01:00:34
◼
►
user access control list which is a pretty deeply woven part of the
[TS]
01:00:38
◼
►
operations in the operating system and they made in like said they would you
[TS]
01:00:42
◼
►
like for years and years they've taken things that aren't even in expenditures
[TS]
01:00:46
◼
►
and expose them to extend that to read so applications have kind of a unified
[TS]
01:00:49
◼
►
interface to do this not release any any applications as anything especially a
[TS]
01:00:54
◼
►
backup application I mean he doesn't have to be like oh I got a bit of
[TS]
01:00:58
◼
►
attacks on this like you know you had seven years just to get on the page of
[TS]
01:01:02
◼
►
like extended attribute sure thing
[TS]
01:01:04
◼
►
copy them when you copy stuff anything Apple and once on top of extended
[TS]
01:01:08
◼
►
attributes which is why you know I was always in favor of you know arbitrary
[TS]
01:01:10
◼
►
sensible arbitrarily extensible metadata because there are so many things you can
[TS]
01:01:14
◼
►
do with all your tools need to do is understand those things exist just copy
[TS]
01:01:18
◼
►
them all right and that's all you need to do is still there are tools they
[TS]
01:01:22
◼
►
don't do it that way but you can rest assured that any tool that works with
[TS]
01:01:25
◼
►
extended attributes in any form will sober
[TS]
01:01:28
◼
►
task is that's all they are and the implementation is like and not only that
[TS]
01:01:31
◼
►
everything's in there about the stupid number for the color from you know 1988
[TS]
01:01:35
◼
►
with labels and the string with the name so there's not even a central registry
[TS]
01:01:39
◼
►
for that like if you copy the file and you can be extended to be with it like
[TS]
01:01:44
◼
►
any good even the command-line CPW does that at this point on OS 10 you will
[TS]
01:01:48
◼
►
have your tax bill yet that is that it's a treat as reassuring as any other thing
[TS]
01:01:53
◼
►
that implemented on top of extended attributes a nice time and you know I
[TS]
01:01:57
◼
►
have to say that that if I were to pick a favorite section of the review this
[TS]
01:02:02
◼
►
one might have been it not because I'm particularly enamored with tags but
[TS]
01:02:06
◼
►
because I loved that you could trace today's situation all the way back
[TS]
01:02:12
◼
►
almost thirty years to 1988 and see that decisions made then I have and have a
[TS]
01:02:19
◼
►
demonstrable effect on the decisions that were made today and maybe that's
[TS]
01:02:27
◼
►
the nerdy side in me coming out but I just thought it was so cool to be able
[TS]
01:02:31
◼
►
to trace what happens in 2013 all the way back to 1988 now and I do think you
[TS]
01:02:36
◼
►
handled it well I'm grilling you not because I disagree but because I thought
[TS]
01:02:40
◼
►
it was a very interesting to talk about right what else did I have here actually
[TS]
01:02:48
◼
►
I think one of the things we do need to talk about in and I'm just gonna go
[TS]
01:02:52
◼
►
ahead and kick back while you talk about this is how is publishing all the
[TS]
01:02:57
◼
►
different ebooks that's pretty smooth this year compared to last year like I
[TS]
01:03:02
◼
►
was really nervous about doing iBooks is the first time I've ever published
[TS]
01:03:05
◼
►
anything I books last year and the year before that I had you know I generated
[TS]
01:03:09
◼
►
epub version and that he published I was trying to say and I books compatible
[TS]
01:03:13
◼
►
epub epub it's nothing I'm making a file that you can load in the in the iBooks
[TS]
01:03:18
◼
►
application and I've done that for years so it's not like the creation of the
[TS]
01:03:22
◼
►
files a problem any more than it always is trying to deal with these eBook
[TS]
01:03:26
◼
►
readers that don't render things nicely so I had to file it was a question of
[TS]
01:03:31
◼
►
going to the submission process and I had heard that the submission process
[TS]
01:03:34
◼
►
could be like days or weeks you know to get the iBookstore is not going to work
[TS]
01:03:38
◼
►
release date a quick turnaround so you know I have friends who hooked me up
[TS]
01:03:42
◼
►
with people at the iBooks store who said they could expedite you know my
[TS]
01:03:47
◼
►
submission kind of like expedited review you get a one-time type thing I don't
[TS]
01:03:51
◼
►
know if it's a one-time type thing but only publish one thing every year anyway
[TS]
01:03:54
◼
►
so it's fine and they were all lined up I go yeah you know we'll we'll get it up
[TS]
01:03:58
◼
►
in 10 12 24 hours so that was all set to go and dealing with the tools they
[TS]
01:04:05
◼
►
talked about it last show it's not wasn't the greatest experience at all
[TS]
01:04:07
◼
►
the kind of creepy not a lot of hand-holding in terms of this is the
[TS]
01:04:11
◼
►
first time you're you're doing it are you sure everything's all set are you
[TS]
01:04:14
◼
►
sure when you click the spot is going to do it you think are you sure after you
[TS]
01:04:17
◼
►
click this button you will have the ability to modify XY and Z without
[TS]
01:04:20
◼
►
screen stopped up you know just learn those who experience of updated all the
[TS]
01:04:25
◼
►
books so many times at this point like if you're listening to this and you have
[TS]
01:04:29
◼
►
you bought the Kindle book or the iBooks book both of them have been updated I
[TS]
01:04:34
◼
►
don't know how the hell to get updates from the Amazon store I think they have
[TS]
01:04:37
◼
►
to send you an email to tell you it's been up to do some crazy thing I have no
[TS]
01:04:40
◼
►
idea so but rest assured that the book has been updated if you can figure out
[TS]
01:04:44
◼
►
how to get the updated version from Amazon Kindle device good on you get a
[TS]
01:04:48
◼
►
nicer version with type of stocks on earth I'm pretty sure you have to
[TS]
01:04:51
◼
►
actually just delete the current one off your device lose any highlights and
[TS]
01:04:55
◼
►
notes you've made in it and just redownload it and I think that will get
[TS]
01:04:59
◼
►
you the newest version in past years that wouldn't even work in past years
[TS]
01:05:03
◼
►
when you delete it and redownload they would give you whatever version you
[TS]
01:05:05
◼
►
purchased in the only way to do to wait for an email with some magic link or
[TS]
01:05:09
◼
►
something it may have gotten better but I books like any other you know
[TS]
01:05:12
◼
►
store things like within iBooks is little update stabbed like this book has
[TS]
01:05:15
◼
►
been updated yet they've been hearing at the new version and I think I think it
[TS]
01:05:20
◼
►
preserves everything for you I don't try to preserve your notes and highlights
[TS]
01:05:23
◼
►
but looks a bit of release notes they do i do I discovered that 17 updates in
[TS]
01:05:28
◼
►
when I saw this kind of updates they got to write something then I found the
[TS]
01:05:31
◼
►
little tiny
[TS]
01:05:34
◼
►
the places that lets you type things into the iTunes producer thing it's like
[TS]
01:05:37
◼
►
I'm boxes literally the size of two postage stamps like to actual postage
[TS]
01:05:41
◼
►
stamps and then that the proportion like more like a square or rectangle at the
[TS]
01:05:45
◼
►
base their tiny text in here like seriously in this gigantic window I get
[TS]
01:05:49
◼
►
to postage stamps and a tiny little fun too small it shouldn't even be in TLS is
[TS]
01:05:54
◼
►
like you know eight-point text or something without spelling correction i
[TS]
01:05:58
◼
►
think is that it doesn't do little red squiggles its crazy maybe does to the
[TS]
01:06:02
◼
►
red squiggles and I just didn't catch it but I put spelling errors in those boxes
[TS]
01:06:05
◼
►
many times likelier to be beheaded and caught it before I pasted in getting the
[TS]
01:06:12
◼
►
book up there it was so fast the first submission
[TS]
01:06:15
◼
►
you know I was talking to my contact without bond like ok I've submitted it
[TS]
01:06:19
◼
►
and he wanted me to give information about I gave him some information and
[TS]
01:06:21
◼
►
then I saw the Book of a storm like alright this is awesome it's you know
[TS]
01:06:24
◼
►
it's up boom there you know is there so quickly and then he sent an email back
[TS]
01:06:29
◼
►
and said I actually wanted another piece of information that the one you sent me
[TS]
01:06:33
◼
►
so she didn't even expedited just went up that fast because like because I
[TS]
01:06:36
◼
►
don't know how long and a lot of people are submitting a book so whatever so
[TS]
01:06:40
◼
►
maybe I just got lucky and the same thing with the updates I would update
[TS]
01:06:42
◼
►
the book and it would get updated within hours and I'm like is this normal says
[TS]
01:06:46
◼
►
automate there is a person doing this and like it usually takes a few hours so
[TS]
01:06:50
◼
►
I'm very happy with how responsive you know even apparently without the special
[TS]
01:06:55
◼
►
treatment that I was trying to get that putting stuff on me I'm bookstore was
[TS]
01:06:59
◼
►
you know it's faster than have them store and their humans evolved so if it
[TS]
01:07:03
◼
►
ever would go slow and human being I could talk to you and say it's going
[TS]
01:07:05
◼
►
slow gonna get faster but after the first after getting the first book up it
[TS]
01:07:10
◼
►
was you know it wasn't a problem can't afford a good day for being a typo
[TS]
01:07:16
◼
►
correction versions to go up or whatever the iBooks reader and the Kindle reader
[TS]
01:07:22
◼
►
but there are two more so continued to frustrate me was that they have to
[TS]
01:07:25
◼
►
patient it's tough right and its fine of his first acts but when you have big
[TS]
01:07:28
◼
►
images the addicts 32 tries to obviously not have images spanning pages reason
[TS]
01:07:33
◼
►
like the top of the image and the agency the bomb damage that's bad but the only
[TS]
01:07:37
◼
►
possible way to do that is to move images around because depending on your
[TS]
01:07:41
◼
►
screen size is it exercises which can be adjusted by the users are you can
[TS]
01:07:45
◼
►
you know where the images land changes so the obvious application kind of sort
[TS]
01:07:51
◼
►
of has to move stuff around and when I move stuff around like makes things that
[TS]
01:07:56
◼
►
are ugly moving images away from the textarea first then you know floating
[TS]
01:08:02
◼
►
images of the worst because it has to decide is there not room and even float
[TS]
01:08:06
◼
►
this sometimes it thinks I have enough room to flood this image to the right
[TS]
01:08:09
◼
►
and it's got like three characters worth space on the left side so i three letter
[TS]
01:08:15
◼
►
word fits their fall by two letter word and then there's a huge vertical swath
[TS]
01:08:18
◼
►
of space and then the five letter word is there anything image and that is
[TS]
01:08:21
◼
►
terribly ugly and it's like 60 for men in your book like totally doesn't look
[TS]
01:08:25
◼
►
like that in their version and it would be nice if I books decided there's not
[TS]
01:08:29
◼
►
enough room for me to float this image I should just sent her a text on either
[TS]
01:08:34
◼
►
side of it and some constantly like doing a little dance that you do you
[TS]
01:08:39
◼
►
know where the dance for you have a have a stack of candles and iOS devices on my
[TS]
01:08:43
◼
►
desk maybe not as big as Marco stack but big enough to be annoying and you load
[TS]
01:08:48
◼
►
the book and every one of these things and you paged through it and believe me
[TS]
01:08:51
◼
►
it takes for ever to page through this thing on even an iOS device let alone a
[TS]
01:08:56
◼
►
candle for ever to page range paid to make this or does it look saying that
[TS]
01:09:01
◼
►
look like readable can people read the text is a certain point to give up on my
[TS]
01:09:04
◼
►
car on this device in this fun size it does is weird formatting thing to do but
[TS]
01:09:10
◼
►
for the most part everything went smoothly the iPad buggin Amazon didn't
[TS]
01:09:14
◼
►
happen soon as soon as the money online store people able to put it on their
[TS]
01:09:18
◼
►
iPad did I mention this is a test of the surprising to me has been almost all the
[TS]
01:09:23
◼
►
sales shifted over time looks like the total number of sales is similar to what
[TS]
01:09:27
◼
►
it was last year round about fifty books but last year was the you know there was
[TS]
01:09:32
◼
►
no I'm explosion and of course our ratings on Amazon this year like almost
[TS]
01:09:35
◼
►
everybody by the iBooks version and a tiny pool people but the Kindle version
[TS]
01:09:39
◼
►
so I guess that kind of makes sense because it's built into the OS Apple
[TS]
01:09:43
◼
►
nerds are going to be for reading this and they might like I books or whatever
[TS]
01:09:46
◼
►
but you know i i was violent and and I version is nicer than the Kindle version
[TS]
01:09:52
◼
►
cuz I was able to use uncompressed things there but I couldn't in the
[TS]
01:09:54
◼
►
Amazon region system delivery fee thing
[TS]
01:09:57
◼
►
so you know as I explained in my post but I how many people about the ebook
[TS]
01:10:01
◼
►
read my blog post about it like that i mean i i dont know I was I was surprised
[TS]
01:10:06
◼
►
at how massively dominant iBooks was in terms of sales and you know I'm
[TS]
01:10:11
◼
►
perfectly happy with that if people are happy that they got it that's actually
[TS]
01:10:15
◼
►
really interesting figures may be one thing if you would if you were never
[TS]
01:10:19
◼
►
that popular and candles
[TS]
01:10:21
◼
►
you know we could try to explain that away but to have a big difference
[TS]
01:10:23
◼
►
between last year and this year that that's something interesting I think I
[TS]
01:10:27
◼
►
can I guess I can kind of understand it but like it did you get the impression i
[TS]
01:10:31
◼
►
know i buy most of my books on the Kindle Store like I'm glad when i buy a
[TS]
01:10:35
◼
►
book the default as I will buy the Kindle book from Amazon that's how I
[TS]
01:10:39
◼
►
read you know anything that's not maybe maybe I could technical book there's
[TS]
01:10:42
◼
►
lots of charges something I would do that but I like a comic book come out by
[TS]
01:10:45
◼
►
perversions comiXology or something but yeah like I was so tall candles dominant
[TS]
01:10:52
◼
►
thing and then Apple's over there were the iBookstore but for now I guess if
[TS]
01:10:55
◼
►
you're writing a review of the Apple operating system people already there
[TS]
01:10:59
◼
►
were up by that and I books forum i guess i mean maybe part of it is because
[TS]
01:11:03
◼
►
Kindle like the the good Kindles are the the grayscale even ones and the tablet
[TS]
01:11:11
◼

candles are kinda crappy that's an understatement I think and and so it was
[TS]
01:11:17
◼
►
something like this where it's full of like nice color images and links and
[TS]
01:11:21
◼
►
things like you you're gonna wanna have this on a full-featured reading device
[TS]
01:11:25
◼
►
like the ear candles are not gonna be good for the color images they're not
[TS]
01:11:29
◼
►
gonna be good following those lines cuz you know they have browsers they're
[TS]
01:11:31
◼
►
terrible and slow and and so the best advice to read the sign is a computer or
[TS]
01:11:36
◼
►
tablet and and so it makes sense that most of the people who are interested in
[TS]
01:11:41
◼
►
reading this kind of thing if they have to pick a color tablet device to read
[TS]
01:11:45
◼
►
this on our way more left to pick an iPad then see a Kindle Fire which is a
[TS]
01:11:50
◼
►
total piece of garbage and I guess I still like the web version better but
[TS]
01:11:54
◼
►
pretty ebook versions despite the fact that the Kindle version has compressed
[TS]
01:11:58
◼
►
JPEG massively compressed air bags of uncompressed things that are in the eye
[TS]
01:12:02
◼
►
books on the Kindle reader app has a built-in browser and the iBooks app
[TS]
01:12:06
◼
►
doesn't so I have been nicer if you're using a lot of
[TS]
01:12:09
◼
►
links to do the Kindle one because they want to keep leaving the app and coming
[TS]
01:12:13
◼
►
back when you tap the link it'll open in the in a browser you know I can still
[TS]
01:12:16
◼
►
hear any other app within a browser that that is is better you know so I i mean
[TS]
01:12:22
◼
►
there were no options for everybody everyone could get what they want and
[TS]
01:12:24
◼
►
the option that I'm surprised more people to pick up their afraid of
[TS]
01:12:27
◼
►
descriptions the you know there are some your subscription which cost exactly the
[TS]
01:12:30
◼
►
same as buying the book but you get all the versions of the book you get the web
[TS]
01:12:34
◼
►
version with no ads on a single page if you wanted to get the multi-page web
[TS]
01:12:38
◼
►
version of that's what you want to get the ebook and the Kindle version had
[TS]
01:12:42
◼
►
also PDF version which is not nice and I don't make money my people some people
[TS]
01:12:45
◼
►
like PDFs for that libraries or whatever and I guess that's all because people
[TS]
01:12:50
◼
►
don't want to repair her member done subscriber to cancel a subscription or
[TS]
01:12:55
◼
►
whatever it is they want to do is just a simple transaction for them to decide by
[TS]
01:12:58
◼
►
inside our books you know so we provide the options he will pick what they want
[TS]
01:13:05
◼
►
first of all I am a print subscriber because i subscribe like three years ago
[TS]
01:13:10
◼
►
for your review then and I have just forgotten to unsubscribe every year we
[TS]
01:13:15
◼
►
also get to review our site all year with no ads on it so usually I'm not
[TS]
01:13:18
◼
►
logged in as I forget that I even habit and then when it renews like that
[TS]
01:13:23
◼
►
sometime cuz every member of your login really well unlike many others I can't
[TS]
01:13:29
◼
►
remember the last time I log into our I don't think there's any kind of timeouts
[TS]
01:13:33
◼
►
on all browsers on all my machines has no ads on one more point to make on this
[TS]
01:13:38
◼
►
before we leave the e-reader topic I have over the years with both Instapaper
[TS]
01:13:44
◼
►
and the magazine I have spent a lot of time and effort trying to make things
[TS]
01:13:52
◼
►
work really well and candles try to make things look as good as well as they can
[TS]
01:13:56
◼
►
trying to get the layouts and funds exactly right in the market is empty
[TS]
01:13:59
◼
►
right and everything
[TS]
01:14:01
◼
►
the navigation navigation all that stuff training all that stuff exactly right
[TS]
01:14:06
◼
►
for any candles and I think almost none of it was worth it I for whatever reason
[TS]
01:14:14
◼
►
I I don't really have a great theory on this there are a lot of people who use
[TS]
01:14:20
◼
►
candles
[TS]
01:14:21
◼
►
but any kind of difference in quality of the Kindle experience just never seemed
[TS]
01:14:29
◼
►
appreciated by almost anybody let alone enough people to make it worth the the
[TS]
01:14:34
◼
►
pretty incredible amount of effort that it was over the years and you know maybe
[TS]
01:14:40
◼
►
that's just because so many things about reading on a Kindle content wise are
[TS]
01:14:45
◼
►
mediocre like so many ebooks are half assed and have like one weird font set
[TS]
01:14:52
◼
►
for the whole things like even the candle beset with the you know the
[TS]
01:14:55
◼
►
regular Cecilia fun like one book will be totally set in the san serif font in
[TS]
01:15:01
◼
►
a weird size and justified somehow and there's no way for you to change that or
[TS]
01:15:05
◼
►
books will have like OCR errors when they were scanned from paper and nobody
[TS]
01:15:10
◼
►
ever criticism because nobody's looking and nobody cares so it because they're
[TS]
01:15:13
◼
►
so many foreign periodicals in the kinda looks weird which are just really really
[TS]
01:15:19
◼
►
have fast and so so many content experiences on these devices are like
[TS]
01:15:25
◼
►
you know sixty percent quality that maybe people who use candles just don't
[TS]
01:15:31
◼
►
expect any better and maybe even don't even notice when it is better because
[TS]
01:15:36
◼
►
the whole experience as a whole is is so mediocre with you know full of things
[TS]
01:15:40
◼
►
like bad formatting and you know weird little shortcomings and errors and that
[TS]
01:15:46
◼
►
might also have to do with like the whole thing about market share and
[TS]
01:15:50
◼
►
browser share being so different between iOS and Android where Android devices a
[TS]
01:15:55
◼
►
lot of those are these like purpose made tablets that are sold as video plane
[TS]
01:16:00
◼
►
devices or reading devices something that's not like intend to be general
[TS]
01:16:04
◼
►
purpose computing devices so maybe people who own those you know don't go
[TS]
01:16:08
◼
►
looking for things like this to read on them or don't go looking for like you
[TS]
01:16:11
◼
►
know web magazines or Web save for later services they're you know they're giving
[TS]
01:16:15
◼
►
these things to get three books and they don't even consider doing stuff like
[TS]
01:16:17
◼
►
this with them so one of those is probably the case they do it a little
[TS]
01:16:23
◼
►
bit like i said im trying to do what I can to make sure it's ok
[TS]
01:16:27
◼
►
like I'm not not I know is never gonna be great I just wanna make sure it's ok
[TS]
01:16:31
◼
►
and last year I think was the year where
[TS]
01:16:34
◼
►
when it's not okay I did find out because that was the year I am Kindle
[TS]
01:16:37
◼
►
ebooks version and it didn't look right on the what was then knew that cannot
[TS]
01:16:43
◼
►
touch the one with the stupid well where your finger goes down to it in just like
[TS]
01:16:46
◼
►
the IR being so everything was right and i dont have one of those in no one
[TS]
01:16:50
◼
►
should have one of those but maybe some people happened and they said hey when I
[TS]
01:16:54
◼
►
bring your book up on the texts like crazy small and it's all messed up and
[TS]
01:16:58
◼
►
it's like unreadable and no matter what I do just the size even I just saw the
[TS]
01:17:01
◼
►
maxilla small and I had screwed something up with the funds but I you
[TS]
01:17:05
◼
►
know when I went over there in the simulator insensitive I start to Kindle
[TS]
01:17:09
◼
►
Touch it looks fine but in the actual hardware device it did so you know if
[TS]
01:17:14
◼
►
you're screwed up bad enough you hear from it and member in that case I had to
[TS]
01:17:17
◼
►
make my best guess as to what I had screwed up with the but the funds
[TS]
01:17:20
◼
►
because unlike if you look at the market is focused disgusting like all sorts of
[TS]
01:17:25
◼
►
hacks and that some of them probably aren't even necessary anymore like I
[TS]
01:17:28
◼
►
think ahead like P style Eagles text indent nun you know inline style and
[TS]
01:17:33
◼
►
every single paragraph I think you still need that for the Kindle three and maybe
[TS]
01:17:36
◼
►
even the Kindle for movies like crap like that have been looking like what
[TS]
01:17:40
◼
►
are you crazy you know how to make market was like I did not put it out
[TS]
01:17:43
◼
►
there for my health that's because like three years ago I had to do that to get
[TS]
01:17:46
◼
►
a look right I like the Kindle to write and I just leave all that crap in this
[TS]
01:17:50
◼
►
analysis is piled high atop a pile paxon and the these particular arrangement of
[TS]
01:17:56
◼
►
politics screw up the fund on that you know they cannot touch so I had to like
[TS]
01:18:00
◼
►
guess what the solution was one hell of a book you know email to Scott McNulty
[TS]
01:18:06
◼
►
who has every candle in the universe and say can you take a picture of it
[TS]
01:18:10
◼
►
show me what it looks like a very spot sizes so I can say okay like I i approve
[TS]
01:18:14
◼
►
that it gets good in shaping up actually you know what before before I forget I
[TS]
01:18:19
◼
►
now that I no longer have any paper or the magazine and the next step is a
[TS]
01:18:23
◼
►
podcast app I've been looking to get rid of my collection of all the candles do
[TS]
01:18:28
◼
►
you want to give it to you free cuz you can actually use it my wife will not
[TS]
01:18:32
◼
►

[TS]
01:18:37
◼
►
reading devices I'm sending it to you that's it
[TS]
01:18:41
◼
►
refuse it if you want but I'm thinking like we didn't we didn't give our son
[TS]
01:18:46
◼
►
one of our old conozcas with her kids actually kind of good because I like
[TS]
01:18:51
◼
►
buying e-books market in the paper books they have so many paper books like by my
[TS]
01:18:55
◼
►
son books and giving him his own candle to like to read on
[TS]
01:18:58
◼
►
is pretty good so you know if you want to send me some of your old ones like I
[TS]
01:19:00
◼
►
was given my kids are you save some time out of his old enough
[TS]
01:19:06
◼
►
hollow candles on the only one I want to save as the paperwhite because that's
[TS]
01:19:12
◼
►
the only one that we actually use good one but if you want to get rid of all
[TS]
01:19:17
◼
►
the only old once everything before the paperwhite I have one of each model and
[TS]
01:19:21
◼
►
you're going to have them soon caught sunbathing in 2012 nobody wants that
[TS]
01:19:23
◼

[TS]
01:19:32
◼
►

[TS]
01:19:37
◼

[TS]
01:19:42
◼
►
before we lived
[TS]
01:19:48
◼
►
move on from this topic in in the shower when I get in as you guys some two
[TS]
01:19:55
◼
►
questions actually 1 I'll talk about appearance maybe the next week but since
[TS]
01:19:59
◼
►
we're short on time I mentioned last week when I didn't talk about their view
[TS]
01:20:04
◼
►
that there was like some overriding theme that I was trying to weave through
[TS]
01:20:07
◼
►
out the review and that whether or not you got the pop culture references that
[TS]
01:20:12
◼
►
I was using to build it should have worked on its own
[TS]
01:20:15
◼
►
did I succeed did you see a team running through this and if so what do you think
[TS]
01:20:20
◼
►
power-saving that's true in terms of the features but it's like I'm thinking more
[TS]
01:20:25
◼
►
like the touchy-feely like you know what kind of OS is this where does it fall in
[TS]
01:20:31
◼
►
the hierarchy of US releases you know me I think so I i mean you explicitly state
[TS]
01:20:37
◼
►
that you know you you can't give an idea of the theme that that you want me to
[TS]
01:20:43
◼
►
say that you believed I think it depends a lot on your opinion of Mavericks like
[TS]
01:20:50
◼
►
as a usually when you get like once you depend on like what you think of the
[TS]
01:20:53
◼
►
things they change
[TS]
01:20:54
◼
►
changed whether it makes a big difference for you know for your
[TS]
01:20:57
◼
►
hardware and for your usage and and what you think of the direction they're going
[TS]
01:21:04
◼
►
and so I think that year's theme is is spot-on of like this shows some
[TS]
01:21:10
◼
►
interesting things for the directions there there at the direction they're
[TS]
01:21:13
◼
►
going with some of the stuff and it's it wasn't it wasn't necessarily the obvious
[TS]
01:21:18
◼
►
direction they were going year ago or two years ago and and so that you did
[TS]
01:21:23
◼
►
very well I'm not sure I picked up on the specifics of a ton of places where
[TS]
01:21:30
◼
►
you think they were they are going to be so I'd like some some big things like
[TS]
01:21:35
◼
►
shifting towards i mean one thing that i think is very obvious for me with this
[TS]
01:21:39
◼
►
is Mavericks is really a laptop OS that happens to run on desktops if you want
[TS]
01:21:47
◼
►
to and it is really it is getting more iOS like but not in the interface and
[TS]
01:21:58
◼
►
like stuff like long competitiveness is kind of stupid but you know the the
[TS]
01:22:05
◼
►
interface is actually getting you know mostly back to being back like again
[TS]
01:22:11
◼
►
maybe I should be out until he tried a radical redesign who knows but a lot of
[TS]
01:22:16
◼
►
the and lines are the stupid like a lot of the power saving stuff a lot of the
[TS]
01:22:22
◼
►
app nap the the sandbox and I'm just putting more restrictions on ads in
[TS]
01:22:27
◼
►
order to achieve that our stuff for the user whether its security whether its
[TS]
01:22:31
◼
►
power related or or you know managing unsaved data stuff like that I think
[TS]
01:22:36
◼
►
we're gonna see a lot more of that and and a lot more stuff aimed at that
[TS]
01:22:42
◼
►
laptop specifically but but just like a lot more just restrictions that won't
[TS]
01:22:47
◼
►
necessarily him to power users for the most part but we'll keep making life
[TS]
01:22:53
◼
►
harder for developers temporarily to get long-term that are situations going on
[TS]
01:22:58
◼
►
this on this platform that they didn't have the luxury of starting from scratch
[TS]
01:23:01
◼
►
with iOS but I spell it out in the
[TS]
01:23:06
◼
►
the interim the conclusions I'm going and make the last paragraph more or less
[TS]
01:23:10
◼
►
than you know that the very last line of like this is a weird time in the life of
[TS]
01:23:16
◼
►
the Mac because the direction of was going in has been sort of like a big
[TS]
01:23:22
◼
►
stop signs prepared to stop with that don't don't do that anymore and you know
[TS]
01:23:27
◼
►
they scraped out a lot of that stuff but left a lot of those things kind of you
[TS]
01:23:32
◼
►
know it's in limbo like it it's it's an OS that is not it is unsure of itself
[TS]
01:23:37
◼
►
right it's not it is not bold confident even to the green line one line was more
[TS]
01:23:43
◼
►
bold and confident like gap we're gonna have everything wouldn't felt and looked
[TS]
01:23:47
◼
►
like iOS and like I don't care what you were doing that is broken so book now I
[TS]
01:23:51
◼
►
gotta bookmark deal with it you know it was i mean you could say it was
[TS]
01:23:54
◼
►
misguided are going the wrong direction but it was certainly more more confident
[TS]
01:23:58
◼
►
and bold about what it was doing and Mavericks is like no you know maybe not
[TS]
01:24:03
◼
►
sure about what we're doing here I guess you know I mean like the power same
[TS]
01:24:06
◼
►
stuff is like you to definitely going to emphasize power-saving do that stuff
[TS]
01:24:10
◼
►
that's fine but like anything like what what is the Mac platform becoming like
[TS]
01:24:14
◼
►
which one is the direction for the Mac and aside from the obvious stuff like
[TS]
01:24:19
◼
►
that more efficient get faster you know better battery life what does it mean to
[TS]
01:24:23
◼
►
be a Mac what is the future of this platform and Mavericks is is not a bold
[TS]
01:24:29
◼
►
statement in any particular direction other than that direction we're going in
[TS]
01:24:33
◼
►
before we're not doing that anymore but we don't have fun times we don't have
[TS]
01:24:37
◼
►
time to undo all that stuff either so some is going to be there but I mean you
[TS]
01:24:41
◼
►
know we put the stuff and we don't we don't want to do that we just don't have
[TS]
01:24:44
◼
►
time to clean up but don't look over there it's kind of a great game center
[TS]
01:24:47
◼
►
still friggin felt like you know it's still the stuff is still there and i
[TS]
01:24:50
◼

guess i know i OS that little tiny bit of that unlike iBook still being the
[TS]
01:24:54
◼

embargo never been clear from get in line you know all bored I was 17 and
[TS]
01:25:04

maverick's not like that at all and the edges stop i think is this more I think
[TS]
01:25:08
◼
►
it did I i mean i spelled it out I think I might have used at Alexs maybe not
[TS]
01:25:12
◼
►
like Apple said to themselves and it's really important I think bears out of
[TS]
01:25:17
◼
►
the usage of it
[TS]
01:25:18
◼
►
you said it's like you know it's like a laptop OS but just true in the sense
[TS]
01:25:22
◼
►
there you know focusing on power saver which only really matters when you have
[TS]
01:25:24
◼
►
a battery you know what it's like if not just any saving its increased energy
[TS]
01:25:32
◼
►
efficiency and increased responsiveness and they go hand in hand responsiveness
[TS]
01:25:36
◼
►
and stop your Mac from doing crap that is not responding to you the user right
[TS]
01:25:41
◼
►
now which usually means stop your Mac from doing all sorts of stuff that was
[TS]
01:25:44
◼
►
doing before and if you spent any time like running DTrace or you know the old
[TS]
01:25:49

St usage think it's gone there you know he trusts or FSU said you're all these
[TS]
01:25:54

tools on the Mac you can use to see what the system is doing its doing tons of

stuff all the time the Mac is doing so many things like this is why it's
[TS]
01:26:02
◼

amazing that I was even works with iOS is not doing these things would destroy
[TS]
01:26:06
◼

your battery you know and so they're trying to bring it into like stop max I
[TS]
01:26:10

like I've more or less it should have should have this gauged after going

even accounting for that in fact I truly believe that my desktop Mac Pro at work

like in a lasting way that you eventually get used to it you don't

notice it anymore but it's because the thing my machine is doing less crap and

even if this comes down to like I'm my machine is not being destroyed by

with just less crap going on in the background and more things to be like oh

01:27:39
◼

I was gonna run but let me let me hold off and wait until an idle period like
[TS]
01:27:43
◼

that goes a long way even on a desktop Mac and so I would encourage people to
[TS]
01:27:48
◼

like water have laptops I don't care about Mavericks you should care not
[TS]
01:27:52
◼

because of anything because of the responsiveness angle that goes hand in

◼

hand and I think this is just the tip of the iceberg it's not like it's magically
[TS]
01:27:58

all super duper responsive now like but definitely going in that direction to

01:28:02

say to make a better experience we have to do like what I rested and say we
[TS]
01:28:07

really need to respond to these got all this power too much power we've gotten

lazy and just got so much are we gonna have you know just added things one

01:28:15
◼

after the other like first spotlight was not just things going to run and then
[TS]
01:28:19
◼
►
we're gonna have time machine that's another thing is gonna run in the
[TS]
01:28:21
◼

background when things and if you just look at like the CPU usage of some
[TS]
01:28:25
◼

stupid thing pulling in your menu bar like so many things are so wasteful
[TS]
01:28:28

Adobe you know just just just torturing your machine even this is something I

01:28:34
◼

missed him argue that added an updated version even the stupid time machine
[TS]
01:28:38
◼

like a little tiny clock icon doesn't turn on anymore but it is not used you
[TS]
01:28:42
◼

know it's not worth sending you know giving CPU cycles waking up the CPU 30
[TS]
01:28:47
◼

times a second spin that stupid thing when it sprinkles Time Machine backups
[TS]
01:28:50
◼

can take a long time like just this relentless desire to say stop the
[TS]
01:28:55
◼
►
computer from doing crap that does not help the user and so that that is a good
[TS]
01:29:00
◼
►
new direction and think this is like the first toe dip in that direction but
[TS]
01:29:05
◼
►
overall the OS is definitely in a in a transitional period and you know the
[TS]
01:29:10
◼
►
last line of you you may be a very strange time in my life I think this is
[TS]
01:29:13
◼
►
a strange time in the life of the Mac because I think of what's going on a man
[TS]
01:29:17
◼
►
has been strange the past few years but like this is even more strange like it
[TS]
01:29:21
◼
►
seemed like all the Mac is irrelevant I was awesome and then I was like oh no
[TS]
01:29:24
◼
►
the max relevant back to the Mac and Max gonna become relevant looking just like
[TS]
01:29:28
◼
►
iOS the same thing there
[TS]
01:29:30
◼
►
then we were like no that's not too great or whatever and then it's kind of
[TS]
01:29:33
◼
►
like yeah right like that's not great and now just kind of like all right here
[TS]
01:29:37
◼
►
in a stripped off a lot of that was tough competition stuff but not quite
[TS]
01:29:42
◼
►
sure you know what's going on there compared to Iowa soldiers you know so
[TS]
01:29:46
◼
►
bold and fresh and confident what he was doing so that that's the theme I was
[TS]
01:29:51
◼
►
trying to be throughout the day review and I think people feel that like even
[TS]
01:29:55
◼
►
if I just feel it as kind of a big disinterest and Mac platform it's
[TS]
01:29:59
◼
►
because Mavericks doesn't come out of the gate with some you know a lot of it
[TS]
01:30:03
◼
►
comes down to aesthetics doesn't come out the gate with some bold new look and
[TS]
01:30:06
◼
►
some new ideas about how you interact with them act like one of the doc is
[TS]
01:30:11
◼
►
gone and all windows over our full screen or we have a tiling window
[TS]
01:30:15
◼
►
manager all sorts of crazy things you can imagine no more menu bar you know
[TS]
01:30:18
◼
►
like not saying anything good ideas but if any if it did any of those things
[TS]
01:30:22
◼
►
people with sit up and take notice it does not like this is not Mac OS 11 its
[TS]
01:30:27
◼
►
Mac OS 10 and it's like Mac OS 10 you know tepid edition in terms of what's
[TS]
01:30:32
◼
►
going to throw in the userspace but underneath it all are you know some good
[TS]
01:30:36
◼
►
ideas about efficiency and responsiveness that hint at what a new
[TS]
01:30:42
◼
►
direction for the Mac can be but we're not there yet again probably because of
[TS]
01:30:46
◼
►
time constraints so we'll circle back here next year and a similar time I
[TS]
01:30:50
◼
►
assume and see if the next release is that bold new direction that builds on
[TS]
01:30:55
◼
►
you know what Mavericks is kind of finding out only one of the thing too as
[TS]
01:31:00
◼
►
I really think that that some of this transition notion is because Apple has
[TS]
01:31:07
◼
►
always had and this is true both Mac OS and iOS especially Mac OS they've always
[TS]
01:31:14
◼
►
had this weird dichotomy of trying to appeal to power users because their
[TS]
01:31:21
◼
►
power users and they respect us and they have a lot of power user fans you know
[TS]
01:31:25
◼
►
trying to appeal to power users and be like the pro the pro platform while also
[TS]
01:31:32
◼
►
having all these opinions and being being so strongly controlling about ease
[TS]
01:31:37
◼
►
of user experience and simplicity and hiding limitation details from people
[TS]
01:31:41
◼
►
and we've seen Apple go a little too far in in the east direction sometimes and
[TS]
01:31:49
◼
►
they pulled back and look at some of the big money features of Mavericks you know
[TS]
01:31:54
◼
►
some of the finances to fight that they really are for power users the
[TS]
01:31:58
◼
►
multi-monitor stuff that's all why do you think anyone would have predicted
[TS]
01:32:03
◼
►
they would have been improving multi-monitor stuff as much as they did
[TS]
01:32:06
◼
►
just last year or the year before like with live online brought in full screen
[TS]
01:32:11
◼
►
and and everyone's like oh well now we have just talked with linen on our
[TS]
01:32:15
◼
►
second screen forever like no one would have predicted at that time that the
[TS]
01:32:19
◼
►
same company just two years later would dramatically improve multi-monitor and
[TS]
01:32:25
◼
►
and make it so much better and you know I think and was it was a mountain lion
[TS]
01:32:30
◼
►
introduced mission control or whatever that new thing was anyway you know
[TS]
01:32:36
◼
►
Apple's always had this weird dichotomy between our users and hiding things for
[TS]
01:32:41
◼
►
ease of use and part of the transition that I think you're getting at is just
[TS]
01:32:45
◼
►
them fighting that battle that they've been fighting for a long time and
[TS]
01:32:49
◼
►
they're just they just keep moving forward to making it more locked down
[TS]
01:32:54
◼
►
for use of use but also better power users in like they there it's like
[TS]
01:32:58
◼
►
they're like one-upping themselves in that battle as time goes on and I don't
[TS]
01:33:02
◼
►
know that they can never win that battle it's just a hard problem is kind of like
[TS]
01:33:05
◼
►
this is kind of like a do over because it's like they're still there going to
[TS]
01:33:10
◼
►
head off I think in the same direction but Lyon mountain lion are sort of an
[TS]
01:33:14
◼
►
embodiment of misunderstanding what's good about iOS is it like a kind of a
[TS]
01:33:18
◼
►
kind of understand a broad level iOS is good and popular because it's simple and
[TS]
01:33:23
◼
►
it gets crap out your way that you don't want to deal with crap that and I talked
[TS]
01:33:28
◼
►
a lot about this new line an outline of you especially in liar view things that
[TS]
01:33:32
◼
►
we all take for granted that if you think about it's like well why should I
[TS]
01:33:35
◼
►
even bother with that at all and like I was the perfect example of like how easy
[TS]
01:33:39
◼
►
it is to buy and install an app why isn't that easy on the neck well because
[TS]
01:33:42
◼
►
of XY and Z imbaba like but does it have to be well I've been computer just like
[TS]
01:33:46
◼
►
any of it's kind of like you know power users do want power and they'll get
[TS]
01:33:49
◼
►
addicted like Stockholm Syndrome to get addicted to things that are terrible I
[TS]
01:33:53
◼
►
could ask a Mac user way
[TS]
01:33:54
◼
►
back before any your time like used to be able to choose how much RAM and
[TS]
01:33:58
◼
►
application would allocate to itself you get info on finding it was little box
[TS]
01:34:01
◼
►
and said like two little boxes we could get recommended in a maximum size of
[TS]
01:34:05
◼
►
whatever support nightmare that must be like oh you have to give it more memory
[TS]
01:34:11
◼
►
you can open files figure rose you know you decide how much RAM accused and
[TS]
01:34:15
◼
►
obviously that's you know from my perspective like why would ever have to
[TS]
01:34:19
◼
►
do that it's like you know having to go out and drink you're stuck artist or
[TS]
01:34:21
◼
►
something but if you have to Paris Michael I need to have my control but I
[TS]
01:34:26
◼
►
need to tell exactly how much this application is that and how did you know
[TS]
01:34:29
◼
►
like they love the knobs and you know they love nigga dick into that stuff and
[TS]
01:34:33
◼
►
it takes a while to get away from that and other things cleaned like all that
[TS]
01:34:36
◼
►
crap that you thought was essential actually it's not and see how much more
[TS]
01:34:40
◼
►
pleasant it is to use this thing but what blind mountain lion like ok iOS
[TS]
01:34:45
◼
►
like people like that that's good that simple but we need do is make them act
[TS]
01:34:49
◼
►
like iOS and they made it like iOS in the wrong ways right what they should
[TS]
01:34:54
◼
►
have been doing a lot more americans doing like you know all that sand boxing
[TS]
01:34:58
◼
►
stuff and all of the you know obvious implications of getting rid of like you
[TS]
01:35:03
◼
►
know wouldn't it be nice if you know where all the files were on the system
[TS]
01:35:07
◼
►
can manage them and you know that you know the sandbox containers for things
[TS]
01:35:10
◼
►
and you didn't have all these application just doing random crap their
[TS]
01:35:13
◼
►
system and patching things and running in the background and eating CPU cycles
[TS]
01:35:16
◼
►
and you know it wasn't a wild Western you more like that's one aspect of the
[TS]
01:35:21
◼
►
other one was like well
[TS]
01:35:22
◼
►
interface implication that book should be like a book and it's just one simple
[TS]
01:35:26
◼
►
screen you know that was the wrong direction like the simplifications are
[TS]
01:35:30
◼
►
not in the visual interface applications are in think of the parts of the system
[TS]
01:35:35
◼
►
that I like busy work that you don't need to be doing or that are like our
[TS]
01:35:40
◼
►
are inefficient or that caused chaos like the Wild West nature of the
[TS]
01:35:43
◼
►
internals of like all these things running rampant over system making like
[TS]
01:35:47
◼
►
a fragile system
[TS]
01:35:48
◼
►
get rid of that but still give the features that make the Mac than that and
[TS]
01:35:53
◼
►
so i think there's a reset of like they went off in they went off in pursuit of
[TS]
01:35:57
◼
►
the aesthetic look and feel and simplification in terms of individual
[TS]
01:36:00
◼
►
and they're resetting now and saying actually true
[TS]
01:36:03
◼
►
true luxuries whatever form you sent terrible advertisements they had that
[TS]
01:36:07
◼
►
the true true simplicity is getting rid of ugly details but not getting rid of
[TS]
01:36:14
◼
►
features you know as much as they stood in a little bit about our competitions
[TS]
01:36:18
◼
►
and stuff but try to try to provide the same functionality but make it so there
[TS]
01:36:23
◼
►
are fewer moving parts and Furyk rapid you don't care about that you have to
[TS]
01:36:26
◼
►
deal with and they're far from that goal now I guess it's kind of like i rewind
[TS]
01:36:30
◼
►
and reset and hope when they move in a new direction towards simplicity will
[TS]
01:36:34
◼
►
not be towards you know just playing I was dressed up like you know I said your
[TS]
01:36:39
◼
►
view of johns and more towards appreciating what it is you know that I
[TS]
01:36:44
◼
►
was has fewer hassles so get rid of the hassles and Mac OS don't just try to
[TS]
01:36:48
◼
►
make it like I was because I S and you know different types of hassles there
[TS]
01:36:52
◼
►
are houses on the Mac get rid of those hassles and new features without their
[TS]
01:36:57
◼
►
own set of hassles behind them and go forward in that direction so I I hope
[TS]
01:37:01
◼
►
that's where they're going i mean like I said the last show calls transitional
[TS]
01:37:06
◼
►
because you like 10 what is transitioning from but we don't quite
[TS]
01:37:09
◼
►
know what is transitioning to so far it's kind of like a you know a pause
[TS]
01:37:13
◼
►
reset to regroup kind of thing
[TS]
01:37:15
◼
►

950 people email you and say that these traits that what we talkin like labeling
[TS]
01:39:44

[TS]
01:40:29
◼

made them one year and then install a new OS and you know what up on my test
[TS]
01:40:33

►
accounts they're they're all my contacts as the same joke over and over again but
[TS]
01:40:36
◼
►
it's it's new to some people like oh you know that context then how do you get
[TS]
01:40:41
◼
►
that reference and nobody you look at the context
[TS]
01:40:45
◼
►
crap is right but for the seven people who know what it is it's entertaining
[TS]
01:40:49

►
first time can be kind of fun you know where hard work the kind of fun but
[TS]
01:43:37
◼
►
revising its just not fun at all so I don't know like the thing the thing that
[TS]
01:43:42
◼
►
makes me keep doing these things is I think about what I don't do it they can
[TS]
01:43:48
◼
►
have someone else do it now you know doing right now we're done this I don't
[TS]
01:43:54
◼

want to be sitting there like armchair quarterbacking whoever does your views

[TS]
01:44:16
◼
►
other hand 10 ken is also a round thing and if they ever did 11 like I don't
[TS]
01:44:20
◼
►
know I'm gonna have to stop at some point maybe they'll get worse and worse
[TS]
01:44:24
◼
►
until known reason anymore as soon as I guess is that a good strategy
[TS]
01:44:29
◼
►
yeah you could imagine like who the hell would want this job of trying to fill
[TS]
01:44:34
◼
►
these shoes that as I mean if you don't have to fill the shoes like that's
[TS]
01:44:41
◼
►
that's the thing about people think that this review is getting so widely read
[TS]
01:44:44
◼
►
because they're so good but at this point they get some when they read
[TS]
01:44:46
◼
►
because there are technical and stuff you know I don't think that's true I
[TS]
01:44:51
◼
►
don't either the publication has a reputation at this point people don't
[TS]
01:44:55
◼
►
even look at the byline and they they have no idea who I am
[TS]
01:44:58
◼
►
am or like I bet that's not even close to true I bet that you bring a lot of
[TS]
01:45:03
◼
►
people to Ars Technica for this review that are coming to it because it's your
[TS]
01:45:08
◼
►
review I brought a lot of people you know a lot of the people who work for
[TS]
01:45:12
◼
►
stepping in now said I first came readings almost interview years ago but
[TS]
01:45:16
◼
►
I think at this point I think of the publication has you know a good
[TS]
01:45:21
◼
►
reputation on its own people trusted and the reason that I mean that's the reason
[TS]
01:45:26
◼
►
that this jury gets so much traffic is because the site's traffic has grown so
[TS]
01:45:30
◼
►
much like back in the day we cannot completely rule no
[TS]
01:45:34
◼
►
last year when I did my foot might parody review of your review I told you
[TS]
01:45:38
◼
►
that was by far the number one pageview article on my site for the for all of
[TS]
01:45:44
◼
►
last year and I had a lot of big hits last year and that beat them all but I
[TS]
01:45:48
◼
►
know the actual traffic numbers are as we like to say on the air but I know the
[TS]
01:45:52
◼
►
actual traffic numbers so I can compare apples to apples and ours ours as a site
[TS]
01:45:56
◼
►
its traffic has grown tremendously over the past several years since to the
[TS]
01:46:00
◼
►
credit of all the people who write for the publication and I've just been the
[TS]
01:46:02
◼
►
kind of along for the ride and I mean I get like this I make a very long review
[TS]
01:46:08
◼
►
too so like I think I said like in the line of use that was the most popular
[TS]
01:46:12
◼
►
article on ours for the year right but I think was also the longest so it's this
[TS]
01:46:17
◼
►
year or less traffic than last year
[TS]
01:46:19
◼
►
you know I don't know this because the month that came out in or whatever but I
[TS]
01:46:25
◼
►
mean maybe maybe not just fade away and people care enough about the Mac
[TS]
01:46:29
◼
►
platform to be reading these reviews or maybe there won't be a few short in the
[TS]
01:46:34
◼
►
last year and I think it's because they're less stuff to talk about so like
[TS]
01:46:37
◼
►
I'm thinking of any game kind of like cable talk xoxo only watch like his ass
[TS]
01:46:43
◼
►
and what does it look like I don't know I mean he said things like no fade away
[TS]
01:46:48
◼
►
so out of nothing sells I can sell out or just stop like that's a good thing so
[TS]
01:46:55
◼
►
eventually it the worst time to ask me after i'm just finished telling me like
[TS]
01:47:00
◼
►
I'm never doing that again the conversation I had with my really good
[TS]
01:47:05

◼
►
you saying that you are like the iPod Classic what happens is that the thing
[TS]
01:48:05
◼
►
that I have to offer that's actually a distinct value becomes less and less
[TS]
01:48:09
◼
►
interest because as time goes on there are plenty of people like at this point
[TS]
01:48:12
◼
►

◼
►
release this is not the first time ever I can give you a historical context with
[TS]
01:48:49
◼
►
maybe knowing which areas to go into technical depth because it could go into
[TS]
01:48:53
◼
►
the same depth that I do many people who could find more features than I do and
[TS]
01:48:57
◼
►
how to pay is about them whatever all I've got to offer is 100 people or
[TS]
01:49:01
◼
►
people eventually don't have you know looks or strength or you know figure
[TS]
01:49:06

time goes on I will I will have my wisdom I will continue to offer it and
