00:06:30 ◼ ► and not to say that Apple is making a watch or that they watch will be covered in fire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/390">TS</a>]
00:06:35 ◼ ► but it's worth considering that the sapphire plant they're building probably not for our entire i Phone screen so far [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/395">TS</a>]
00:06:43 ◼ ► although maybe you know people are saying they've been making advances in sapphire that makes it more comfortable to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/403">TS</a>]

00:07:15 ◼ ► and I highly recommend everyone to listen to that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/435">TS</a>]
00:07:19 ◼ ► and I think that this is this is very good feedback that yes it is a very good point that watches do used to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/439">TS</a>]
00:07:28 ◼ ► and even if Apple is not making the watch if they're making some kind of small wearable anything with a display it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/448">TS</a>]
00:07:33 ◼ ► would make sense that might be you know the cover material so all these possibilities make a lot of sense [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/453">TS</a>]
00:07:38 ◼ ► and are all I think probably more plausible than the idea of them doing the whole i Phone screen sapphire just because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/458">TS</a>]
00:07:46 ◼ ► you know not only as we discussed and only just that is that just a lot of sapphire they would need [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/466">TS</a>]

00:08:07 ◼ ► it's really necessary for the i Phone screen to switch to Sapphire. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/487">TS</a>]
00:08:10 ◼ ► Well the things I was writing about was not that they would make the whole screen glass out of sapphire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/490">TS</a>]
00:08:15 ◼ ► but that you'd make a laminate where they have a super thin layer of sapphire over it for a scratch resistance [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/495">TS</a>]
00:08:20 ◼ ► but then underneath that essentially gorilla glass type of stuff so you try to get the benefits of all them really hard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/500">TS</a>]
00:08:25 ◼ ► like you know on a knife edge or you got a really hard towards the sort of the blade edge [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/505">TS</a>]

00:08:39 ◼ ► of all the materials like a flexible Center with a very very hard surface that makes sense for for a phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/519">TS</a>]
00:08:46 ◼ ► or something where you don't want the screen to be scratched at the hardest materially possible. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/526">TS</a>]
00:08:49 ◼ ► Just on the very you know the scratch surface [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/529">TS</a>]
00:08:52 ◼ ► but are we really scratching the screens on our phones because the damage I see is shattering because of impact not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/532">TS</a>]
00:08:58 ◼ ► Well that I see a lot of scratched i Phones I may think of people who take their i Phones without a case [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/538">TS</a>]

00:09:28 ◼ ► I just I don't know if if the scratch prevention is what we really need on the screen what we really need on the screen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/568">TS</a>]
00:09:37 ◼ ► in my opinion is shatter prevention [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/577">TS</a>]
00:09:38 ◼ ► and I'm not sure how to how you would get there they get out of plastic could there be gross. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/578">TS</a>]

01:33:52 ◼ ► Well I don't have a lot more to say I think it's really interesting so so as a quick overview how is Facebook's. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5632">TS</a>]
01:34:00 ◼ ► Basically it's a modification an addition to the P.H.P. Language. So they are taking P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5640">TS</a>]
01:34:05 ◼ ► and They are a couple years ago they made this hip hop compiler that would compile P.H.P. To C. Plus plus. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5645">TS</a>]
01:34:13 ◼ ► That way it can be compiled binary and be way faster and they'd actually replace that with something called a V.M. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5653">TS</a>]
01:34:22 ◼ ► and That was about a year ago they released that and it's it's basically a super high performance P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5662">TS</a>]
01:34:30 ◼ ► Git compiler runtime so it's and P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5670">TS</a>]
01:34:34 ◼ ► Has had like optimizing caching byte code compilers before it actually comes with one. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5674">TS</a>]
01:34:40 ◼ ► But hip hop is way faster it's like two to ten times faster and useless memory [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5680">TS</a>]
01:34:45 ◼ ► and everything else so it's it's pretty substantial. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5685">TS</a>]
01:34:49 ◼ ► So what they've done now is they've taken this project [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5689">TS</a>]
01:34:55 ◼ ► and they've they said well now that we've really implemented all of P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5695">TS</a>]
01:34:59 ◼ ► In a faster way let's start customizing it more to our taste. So they've added things to the language. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5699">TS</a>]
01:35:06 ◼ ► Most substantial they added optional static typing in type ending which is really really great. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5706">TS</a>]
01:35:12 ◼ ► That's one thing I would I love to I would love to have that So hack is basically P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5712">TS</a>]
01:35:19 ◼ ► Plus some stuff including most significant static typing optional. So it's very very interesting. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5719">TS</a>]
01:35:28 ◼ ► I think you know P.H.P. Has always been a language where this in my post. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5728">TS</a>]
01:35:35 ◼ ► It is not been stewarded Well it never [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5735">TS</a>]
01:35:39 ◼ ► and never was you know it's you know it's famously with that awesome article that P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5739">TS</a>]
01:35:44 ◼ ► Being a fractal of bad design willing to startle so much. It is not a well designed language. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5744">TS</a>]
01:35:51 ◼ ► The people who who make the decisions about what should go into it and the syntax [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5751">TS</a>]
01:35:57 ◼ ► and what it should be called what method should be called. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5757">TS</a>]
01:36:00 ◼ ► I'm having a lot of bad decisions over the years but it is an eminently practical language [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5760">TS</a>]
01:36:07 ◼ ► and that's why I use it I like it a lot and I don't love it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5767">TS</a>]
01:36:13 ◼ ► I think you know I get a lot of crap for saying in the article. P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5773">TS</a>]
01:36:19 ◼ ► Is not a great language but it is a good language [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5779">TS</a>]
01:36:22 ◼ ► and I didn't get a lot of crap from people who I know to be experienced programmers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5782">TS</a>]
01:36:28 ◼ ► and I'm not I'm not saying that everyone who said crap to me about that is is a noob or anything [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5788">TS</a>]
01:36:35 ◼ ► but I think if you if you can look at the language you're using like this is actually a good way to bring us into this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5795">TS</a>]
01:36:40 ◼ ► discussion so it's not just me talking to nobody for a while. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5800">TS</a>]
01:36:45 ◼ ► Are there any Perryman languages that you know well enough to say are great I don't know if I'd say C. Sharp is great. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5805">TS</a>]
01:36:54 ◼ ► I'd say I have very similar opinions as you do of P.H.P. In that I think it's really really good. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5814">TS</a>]
01:37:01 ◼ ► I think it's been used to write some real real crap but I think it's extremely powerful [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5821">TS</a>]
01:37:06 ◼ ► and can be bent to do almost anything but you know that that flexibility comes with some cost [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5826">TS</a>]
01:37:14 ◼ ► Think you probably qualify as a great language not to do anything in particular just because now we're so far away from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5834">TS</a>]
01:37:21 ◼ ► it's like it's its time of usefulness that like it has a very has only a few warts on it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5841">TS</a>]
01:37:29 ◼ ► and what it was designed to do it does really well without getting in your way. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5849">TS</a>]
01:37:34 ◼ ► I guess probably because like a fine to a language it's great because like everything like what. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5854">TS</a>]
01:37:38 ◼ ► What awkward and weird about C. United those point as well yes like of the whole point. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5858">TS</a>]
01:37:42 ◼ ► I get that the love of language exists that it's right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5862">TS</a>]
01:37:45 ◼ ► but like maybe you don't want to use it to make like a modern program [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5865">TS</a>]
01:37:49 ◼ ► but for what it does it's pretty good I go maybe I haven't. I was hesitant to say go because goes kind of like C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5869">TS</a>]
01:37:57 ◼ ► Done right but now we're in a different age and maybe go. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5877">TS</a>]
01:38:00 ◼ ► It was like a little bit too low level to be a great line which I haven't used enough to say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5880">TS</a>]
01:38:08 ◼ ► but it's kind of like see with the bad things shaved up and I added a bunch of other stuff too. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5888">TS</a>]
01:38:13 ◼ ► and I think any any of the more modern languages like Struve any pro is the more you know about the more you you see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5893">TS</a>]
01:38:19 ◼ ► all the warts and all the horrible things about it. Xander P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5899">TS</a>]
01:38:22 ◼ ► Where you don't know that well to scale the word to cover it in more it is all wart [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5902">TS</a>]
01:38:28 ◼ ► but yeah you know like just think of any [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5908">TS</a>]
01:38:31 ◼ ► but the more you know language the more you just are disgusted by it because you just if you use it for real [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5911">TS</a>]
01:38:36 ◼ ► and become an expert in it you'll know where all the bodies are buried in your list. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5916">TS</a>]
01:38:40 ◼ ► Feel bad about it but you know it's difficult anything anything that isn't in widespread use and it grows quickly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5920">TS</a>]
01:38:46 ◼ ► and you know even in a best case scenario is going to eventually accumulate craft and you know P.H.P. and C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5926">TS</a>]
01:38:55 ◼ ► Plus plus for example start out with a hell of a lot of crap from the beginning and just got worse. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5935">TS</a>]
01:39:02 ◼ ► Started out as a pretty terrible language and became a good language over time but I think you're exactly right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5942">TS</a>]
01:39:09 ◼ ► That makes my point in saying this is that I feel like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5949">TS</a>]
01:39:13 ◼ ► when you learn new language you go through the stages first it's unfamiliar to you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5953">TS</a>]
01:39:17 ◼ ► and generally the your opinion of the language at that point tends to be extreme. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5957">TS</a>]
01:39:23 ◼ ► Either this is terrible because you're being forced to use or something either you know through work [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5963">TS</a>]
01:39:28 ◼ ► or you have to you know use a certain language to be on a certain platform or whatever else [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5968">TS</a>]
01:39:31 ◼ ► and you know we've had you know when I when I first looked at Objective C. F. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5971">TS</a>]
01:39:34 ◼ ► I will this is ridiculous language there's brackets all over the place. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5974">TS</a>]
01:39:37 ◼ ► What the hell are they doing with these method names what is that why there's parentheses there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5977">TS</a>]
01:39:41 ◼ ► and what's the plus doing all this other crap of like why can't use use words like everyone else [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5981">TS</a>]
01:39:45 ◼ ► but you know it was you look at this and it's unfair to you. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5985">TS</a>]
01:39:49 ◼ ► And so if you're being forced or coerced to use it for some other reason that's usually you look at it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5989">TS</a>]
01:39:55 ◼ ► and say this is terrible. If you are learning it because it's it's the new cool thing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/5995">TS</a>]
01:40:00 ◼ ► Again you really want to learn it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6000">TS</a>]
01:40:02 ◼ ► You might have the opposite extreme reaction of everything is awesome Oh my God this is great this is the totally the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6002">TS</a>]
01:40:07 ◼ ► way forward this is going to be amazing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6007">TS</a>]
01:40:09 ◼ ► And then as you learn more of the language as you have more experience with it here your opinion tends to you know move [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6009">TS</a>]
01:40:17 ◼ ► towards the middle. In some way like she start to go OK now you know I'm getting more familiar with it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6017">TS</a>]
01:40:24 ◼ ► It's not as bad as I thought or it's not as good as I thought. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6024">TS</a>]
01:40:27 ◼ ► And you start seeing OK Well here are the things that are decent at this and I think getting the hang of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6027">TS</a>]
01:40:32 ◼ ► and a lot of times your opinions of the language shortcomings at that point are actually your shortcomings [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6032">TS</a>]
01:40:38 ◼ ► and knowing it like you might not think it has a good way to do X. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6038">TS</a>]
01:40:42 ◼ ► Because you don't know you don't know a better way to do it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6042">TS</a>]
01:40:44 ◼ ► but there is a better way to do it you just haven't learned it yet. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6044">TS</a>]
01:40:47 ◼ ► And then as you tend to get more expertise in the language as you become an expert [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6047">TS</a>]
01:40:52 ◼ ► and really get a lot of experience that I think the wisdom that you reach at that point usually is OK This is actually [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6052">TS</a>]
01:41:03 ◼ ► a pretty good lamely look I can see what they were going for. I see why things are on the way they're done. I see. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6063">TS</a>]
01:41:10 ◼ ► Oh well you know here's the school new way to do this thing that I didn't know about before [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6070">TS</a>]
01:41:14 ◼ ► and all the code I wrote before this point was crap now I want to remind all that stuff the right way. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6074">TS</a>]
01:41:19 ◼ ► Now I know this language much better this is great. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6079">TS</a>]
01:41:22 ◼ ► And then a year after that you're still writing this language [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6082">TS</a>]
01:41:25 ◼ ► and then you start saying OK Actually these parts of the language are really getting in my way now. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6085">TS</a>]
01:41:30 ◼ ► Now I know that this is a wall here. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6090">TS</a>]
01:41:32 ◼ ► Like there's there is no way past us with this language [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6092">TS</a>]
01:41:34 ◼ ► or there is no better way to do this that is just a stupid wall because the language is stupid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6094">TS</a>]
01:41:38 ◼ ► and so as you get further in knowing a language you eventually realize that every language sucks in some ways. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6098">TS</a>]
01:41:46 ◼ ► Like I've never I've never learned a programming language well that I thought didn't suck in some way. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6106">TS</a>]
01:41:55 ◼ ► Although I will say gee I think I might give C. The highest overall. All rating maybe. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6115">TS</a>]
01:42:01 ◼ ► But regardless you know I think every language sucks in in some ways [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6121">TS</a>]
01:42:07 ◼ ► and if you if you can't see why the language you're using sucks in certain ways you're probably in that early stage of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6127">TS</a>]
01:42:14 ◼ ► it where it's still very new and novel and you maybe you haven't used it enough to really were into some of the walls [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6134">TS</a>]
01:42:21 ◼ ► or maybe just you know the the way you've used it just hasn't been expansive enough in the grand scheme of things to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6141">TS</a>]
01:42:28 ◼ ► really Renton's certain certain types of problem that are going to spring into so I think similarly it's hard to say [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6148">TS</a>]
01:42:35 ◼ ► any language is bad in the same way it it's hard to say really which is any language is particularly great. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6155">TS</a>]
01:42:40 ◼ ► It's hard to say language is particularly bad because you know the reason why people say language is bad is because of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6160">TS</a>]
01:42:47 ◼ ► faults that are not the languages it's because of you know bad code they've seen bad programmers they've interacted [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6167">TS</a>]
01:42:54 ◼ ► with or bad code they found online [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6174">TS</a>]
01:42:56 ◼ ► or bad a bad situation that they that they got that they had to write that language in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6176">TS</a>]
01:43:00 ◼ ► or a bad code base they had to work on written in that language. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6180">TS</a>]
01:43:04 ◼ ► None of those things necessarily are because of the language there. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6184">TS</a>]
01:43:08 ◼ ► You know often there because of the people you're working with or the way the language was used by a novice. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6188">TS</a>]
01:43:14 ◼ ► And there are people writing bad code in every language and so I feel like a lot of the criticism about P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6194">TS</a>]
01:43:22 ◼ ► but you know you can tell the same things about Visual Basic Visual Basic back in the day you know the language I knew [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6202">TS</a>]
01:43:27 ◼ ► pretty well I know how to pick up Visual Basic back in the day. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6207">TS</a>]
01:43:32 ◼ ► I mean you could say it was a weird language or a lot of weird things about it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6212">TS</a>]
01:43:36 ◼ ► but a lot of people got a lot done in that language because it worked pretty well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6216">TS</a>]
01:43:40 ◼ ► and it wasn't cool ever it was you know it was never respected by programmers but it worked [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6220">TS</a>]
01:43:48 ◼ ► and it wasn't as bad as most programmers think because they never bothered to to learn how to write well in it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6228">TS</a>]
01:43:53 ◼ ► and they probably saw a lot of bad V.B. Code so it was very similar thing with P.H.P. and With any language like. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6233">TS</a>]
01:44:00 ◼ ► Look at the language and you can say well it works like there are some weird edge cases [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6240">TS</a>]
01:44:05 ◼ ► but for the most part the language works. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6245">TS</a>]

01:46:06 ◼ ► I think that actually might be better though in all ways except one. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6366">TS</a>]
01:46:12 ◼ ► So Facebook technically has WAY better skill than the P.H.P. Authors. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6372">TS</a>]
01:46:18 ◼ ► There's no question about that they're way better at it. Their their run time is way better. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6378">TS</a>]
01:46:23 ◼ ► Their ideas of where the language should go with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6383">TS</a>]
01:46:25 ◼ ► but by looking at how you can see what they thought the language needed I think I disagree with some of their changes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6385">TS</a>]
01:46:30 ◼ ► and I think some of the changes look really weird [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6390">TS</a>]
01:46:31 ◼ ► but ultimately the things they chose to add are mostly pretty good things. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6391">TS</a>]
01:46:39 ◼ ► So if Facebook really does kind of take the language over [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6399">TS</a>]
01:46:42 ◼ ► and become the dominant implementation of the dominant spec of the language that's great. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6402">TS</a>]
01:46:49 ◼ ► Until Facebook decides it no longer is interested [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6409">TS</a>]
01:46:53 ◼ ► and then there it could be a weird point where let's say you write a bunch of hacked code let's say you decide OK you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6413">TS</a>]
01:47:00 ◼ ► know what this hack thing is pretty cool. I want to start using it in my P.H.P. Code. Let's do it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6420">TS</a>]
01:47:07 ◼ ► That's great things open source in theory that should work. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6427">TS</a>]
01:47:11 ◼ ► But if Ace book decides in a year or two years or three years. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6431">TS</a>]
01:47:16 ◼ ► Yeah we're actually done with this we're going to do something else [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6436">TS</a>]
01:47:18 ◼ ► and it's not going to open source Never mind that kind of screws people. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6438">TS</a>]
01:47:22 ◼ ► So that's that's my only caution that you know that that could happen here. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6442">TS</a>]
01:47:27 ◼ ► That Besides that I think overall this is a good thing although there's no question it will definitely fragment the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6447">TS</a>]
01:47:34 ◼ ► P.H.P. Community. That being said the unity largely sucks. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6454">TS</a>]
01:47:38 ◼ ► So the fact they get fragmented I don't think is a bad thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6458">TS</a>]
01:47:41 ◼ ► but you also point on your blog post is like this is they're using this to write stuff on the server side so it's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6461">TS</a>]
01:47:47 ◼ ► like they have a developer community out there is like for example Apple Objective C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6467">TS</a>]
01:47:51 ◼ ► Like they want people to write apps of the App Store in Objective C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6471">TS</a>]
01:47:54 ◼ ► So they're sort of maintaining an imperious language on behalf of all these developers where a space book is. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6474">TS</a>]
01:48:00 ◼ ► Maintaining an bring peace be on behalf of Facebook employees who writes Facebook back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6480">TS</a>]
01:48:03 ◼ ► and far as I know they don't have any kind of like hey you go right you know like a development platform for people to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6483">TS</a>]
01:48:10 ◼ ► write code in hack that runs on top of Facebook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6490">TS</a>]
01:48:14 ◼ ► or runs elsewhere is that correct I know Facebook has was a baby eyes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6494">TS</a>]
01:48:18 ◼ ► but as far as I know they're like kind of Web Service thank you. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6498">TS</a>]
01:48:21 ◼ ► Right on top of Facebook and not like write something [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6501">TS</a>]
01:48:24 ◼ ► and Hackett will run inside Facebook maybe I'm wrong about that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6504">TS</a>]
01:48:27 ◼ ► but even if you know that was the case I think people who've built like built code on top of Facebook's platform have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6507">TS</a>]
01:48:34 ◼ ► been burned in the past because Facebook basically just want something to run their their server side web application [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6514">TS</a>]
01:48:41 ◼ ► what they want to all the right and maintain it efficiently and that is their sole focus [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6521">TS</a>]
01:48:46 ◼ ► and so if they change their mind as they had already like these that hip hop which the thing that took P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6526">TS</a>]
01:48:50 ◼ ► Turned into C. Plus plus plus plus into this big monster executable that was their previous approach. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6530">TS</a>]
01:48:56 ◼ ► This is their current approach and a few more years maybe they'll have another approach. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6536">TS</a>]
01:48:59 ◼ ► And at that point it's not so much they will forked hack so far it's just the will lose interest in it like I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6539">TS</a>]
01:49:05 ◼ ► another project I think it is like scribe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6545">TS</a>]
01:49:07 ◼ ► or three of these logging infrastructure thing which was originally a Facebook product [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6547">TS</a>]
01:49:10 ◼ ► and they kind of lost interest with it and it languished for a long time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6550">TS</a>]
01:49:14 ◼ ► and I think like the open source community like picked it up and made a alternative or a port or a fork of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6554">TS</a>]
01:49:19 ◼ ► or whatever so it could be that hack ends up you know Facebook decides on whatever the next approach is in four [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6559">TS</a>]
01:49:26 ◼ ► Hack is left to die on the vine and so does open source the open source community grabs it and that is like P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6566">TS</a>]
01:49:32 ◼ ► Seven or something and hopefully continues to run with it but you hope this the P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6572">TS</a>]
01:49:37 ◼ ► Community around to do that in several years. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6577">TS</a>]
01:49:39 ◼ ► You hope it doesn't just like starve everybody out and all there is attack and then they spoke with interest [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6579">TS</a>]
01:49:44 ◼ ► and had to replace it with something better [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6584">TS</a>]
01:49:46 ◼ ► and there's no one left to maintain AK What a terrible name that is by the way you know yet. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6586">TS</a>]
01:49:51 ◼ ► I think a Facebook loses interest in this if they abandon it. I don't think there's enough people in the P.C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6591">TS</a>]
01:49:57 ◼ ► Community who would like it enough. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6597">TS</a>]
01:50:00 ◼ ► And who would have the time and the skill to maintain it properly I think if Facebook abandons it it's done. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6600">TS</a>]
01:50:07 ◼ ► That's it because the official Peterman probably want nothing to do with it they probably are not happy about the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6607">TS</a>]
01:50:13 ◼ ► existence of that really is like a big middle finger to them saying your language was bad so we made our own version of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6613">TS</a>]
01:50:22 ◼ ► Well as you pointed out they probably deserve a middle finger that was their namespace in character for the backslash [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6622">TS</a>]
01:50:29 ◼ ► Like backslash I What the heck was that there's anything to serve the middle finger [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6629">TS</a>]
01:50:33 ◼ ► and then I stood on Usenet spaces for that reason I think if you had to pick if you had to pick a worse character going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6633">TS</a>]
01:50:40 ◼ ► to think of one without you can live you're not going to Miley's like pile of Poe's going you know the worst [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6640">TS</a>]
01:50:45 ◼ ► or worse ASCII character I don't think there is one. Maybe like maybe a non printing character I guess. Vertical Pab. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6645">TS</a>]
01:51:01 ◼ ► So anyway yeah I don't think I don't think the official P.C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6661">TS</a>]
01:51:06 ◼ ► Maintainers even if they chose to take it over which I think is very very unlikely. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6666">TS</a>]
01:51:12 ◼ ► I don't think that would be a good thing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6672">TS</a>]
01:51:16 ◼ ► So yeah basically a Facebook is a fun hack hack is over [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6676">TS</a>]
01:51:19 ◼ ► and like you know what I'm I'm choosing to write my overcast code base. Now I'm writing it in P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6679">TS</a>]
01:51:27 ◼ ► As of a few days ago and it's great but I'm hesitant to adopt hacks because like what I wrote Instapaper is code base. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6687">TS</a>]
01:51:36 ◼ ► It was two thousand it was late two thousand and seven when I first wrote that the beginnings of that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6696">TS</a>]
01:51:41 ◼ ► and it was still running that code base to the best of my knowledge until mid twenty thirteen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6701">TS</a>]
01:51:48 ◼ ► and then around to get it like it had not been to any language until mid two thousand and thirteen [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6708">TS</a>]
01:51:54 ◼ ► and so you know that's that's a long time and so to have. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6714">TS</a>]
01:52:02 ◼ ► or so to start something now like I do things for not not the long haul if the Yankees are going to last twenty years [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6722">TS</a>]
01:52:09 ◼ ► but I do things with defecation other going to last a couple years at least three to five years sounds reasonable to me [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6729">TS</a>]
01:52:18 ◼ ► and so do I think this language is going to still be healthy and around a maintained in three to five years. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6738">TS</a>]
01:52:26 ◼ ► I don't know I think it's way too soon to say because Facebook is using it now but you know like they're they're not. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6746">TS</a>]
01:52:34 ◼ ► and I think it's like it's not being developed in the open it's like they're having just like code dumps every once in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6754">TS</a>]
01:52:43 ◼ ► and they're just dumping back to the back of the public codebase occasionally like every every couple of weeks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6763">TS</a>]
01:52:49 ◼ ► or whatever. So like web cam the I think so. So like you know like a Facebook start losing interest in this. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6769">TS</a>]
01:52:57 ◼ ► Will your star see old start slowing down those code dumps [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6777">TS</a>]
01:53:01 ◼ ► and eventually the version they're going to use internally is going to be so divergent from the from the public version [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6781">TS</a>]
01:53:06 ◼ ► others kind of stop it stop thinking it's worth maintaining the public version and you know there are so many. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6786">TS</a>]
01:53:17 ◼ ► There are so many plausible realistic ways where this language could get just kind of withered and killed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6797">TS</a>]
01:53:24 ◼ ► or abandoned over the next few years as Facebook's interest and needs change themselves. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6804">TS</a>]
01:53:30 ◼ ► That I would hesitate to build anything big on it today. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6810">TS</a>]
01:53:35 ◼ ► What I am interested in is one of the great advantages of hack and of hip hop is the static type checker. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6815">TS</a>]
01:53:44 ◼ ► So I would like to write my code in hack but have it compiled down to P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6824">TS</a>]
01:53:51 ◼ ► and that should be pretty easy to do because they they have an open source compiler right there in the world. So. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6831">TS</a>]
01:54:00 ◼ ► In fact there's even some command line options that are not implemented on a V.M. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6840">TS</a>]
01:54:03 ◼ ► That make it possibly even easier than that. But if there was an option for the V.M. Runtime to compile hack to P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6843">TS</a>]
01:54:13 ◼ ► Seamlessly that would be more interesting because then you could write your code in half and you can either run it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6853">TS</a>]
01:54:20 ◼ ► and hack on the server or Facebook said to be dicks and kill it. You can compile them to P.H.P. and Keep working. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6860">TS</a>]
01:54:27 ◼ ► Or you could keep it as hack compelled to P.H.P. For deployment before you deploy. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6867">TS</a>]
01:54:32 ◼ ► When the static analyzer on your entire codebase [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6872">TS</a>]
01:54:34 ◼ ► and have it be like a pre-commit hook so you could say Alright I'm going to use it without checking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6874">TS</a>]
01:54:38 ◼ ► and I'm not going to be checking in at runtime all the time but I will check a compile time or commit time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6878">TS</a>]
01:54:43 ◼ ► and so then you will still get a lot of the benefits of those add ons not some of the other add on in the language [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6883">TS</a>]
01:54:48 ◼ ► but you know there is there are some languages. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6888">TS</a>]
01:54:53 ◼ ► I mean sorry there are some out onto the language that could be very easily removed and stripped out for a P.H.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6893">TS</a>]
01:55:00 ◼ ► Compile. Not all of them but some. So that I'm interested in. Otherwise I think I'm in a wait and see. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6900">TS</a>]
01:55:09 ◼ ► All right thanks a lot two or three sponsors this week help spot a glue and Warby Parker [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6909">TS</a>]
01:55:16 ◼ ► and we will see you next week to be accidental. And you are sitting on the way this is asking a. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6916">TS</a>]
01:56:00 ◼ ► My titles are always on vacation in California like that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6960">TS</a>]

01:56:34 ◼ ► see like Greece just seem like matters as far as and yes it does look like he's always on vacation and National Park. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6994">TS</a>]
01:56:39 ◼ ► He's not carrying like a bouncy seat and a bunch of toys and right now he's not. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/6999">TS</a>]
01:56:45 ◼ ► He's carefree go wherever he wants is an adult to know that the worry about Nap time are feeding people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7005">TS</a>]
01:56:53 ◼ ► or people being cranky or changing poopy diapers and he's always on vacation and you sent me this notebook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7013">TS</a>]
01:57:01 ◼ ► That's why there is this like cult of California [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7021">TS</a>]
01:57:04 ◼ ► and maybe you just mean like generalizing the Seabees tech people doing other stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7024">TS</a>]
01:57:08 ◼ ► but it just seems like California people have have such like such beautiful climates and such beautiful landscapes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7028">TS</a>]
01:57:15 ◼ ► and everything's great especially like protect people who are young [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7035">TS</a>]
01:57:18 ◼ ► and again well you know as you said they don't have kids yet maybe or they're on their ranch with Ronald Reagan. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7038">TS</a>]
01:57:24 ◼ ► and like it's like I feel like being on the east coast keeps me a little bit closer to reality even though I live in a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7044">TS</a>]
01:57:31 ◼ ► suburb of New York City so of course it's nothing like reality [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7051">TS</a>]
01:57:34 ◼ ► but I think I think being here has a very different perspective [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7054">TS</a>]
01:57:40 ◼ ► and that part of the problem in the valley is is a pretty severe lack of perspective I think of the fame of going out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7060">TS</a>]
01:57:50 ◼ ► there is better to Instagram then where I can make a scene like that can't always be on vacation he believes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7070">TS</a>]
01:57:56 ◼ ► or whatever but they make it seem like it was I think a lot of pictures when they go ahead they go them out. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7076">TS</a>]
01:58:00 ◼ ► Over time so as far as you're concerned like they're always in Japan at some neutral place [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7080">TS</a>]
01:58:03 ◼ ► or they're always in Thousand America somewhere in a jungle or there oh even your sanity [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdRKJUVI/7083">TS</a>]
