59: The Little Puck That Could

 

00:00:00   I saw the the Ashton Kutcher Jobs movie finally because it was free and flicks. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/0">TS</a>]

00:00:04   I did as well and it was actually well you go ahead you go ahead. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4">TS</a>]

00:00:09   It sounds like you're about to give it a semi decent review I think one of the most frustrating things about it is that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/9">TS</a>]

00:00:15   even if you ignore some of the some of the little inaccuracy that ends it seemed overall to get the big stuff right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/15">TS</a>]

00:00:24   Even if you ignore all that it's not even a good movie because it takes like two hours. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/24">TS</a>]

00:00:31   And right towards the end in like the last fifteen minutes they have this eight second montage that covers the entire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/31">TS</a>]

00:00:42   time span from when he was fired from Apple to when Apple bought next [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/42">TS</a>]

00:00:47   and so not only to the gloss over a pretty significant part of Steve Jobs his life and career [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/47">TS</a>]

00:00:55   but it was also like here's the big gloom and doom Apple is failing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/55">TS</a>]

00:01:01   It showed all of that into eight seconds to mount a show like it appears chronological it like as you're watching a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/61">TS</a>]

00:01:07   movie it's like here's Apple here's the big villain Apple firing Steve Jobs because they think they know better. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/67">TS</a>]

00:01:14   And then eight seconds later Apple's you know on the floor dying and they need him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/74">TS</a>]

00:01:21   and they beg him to come back somehow and he somehow save them. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/81">TS</a>]

00:01:23   You know like they it's not even good storytelling because they just kind of like snap their fingers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/83">TS</a>]

00:01:30   and all of a sudden everything's fine again. It clearly was done down which is as you would expect. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/90">TS</a>]

00:01:37   But given that everyone handed in said it was like the worst thing committed to film ever. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/97">TS</a>]

00:01:43   I didn't think it was nearly that bad. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/103">TS</a>]

00:01:45   As someone who has a reasonable amount of Apple history in my head I thought it was mildly enjoyable [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/105">TS</a>]

00:01:52   and the one thing I will say that was extremely positive was I feel like Ashton Kutcher just nailed Jobs's walk [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/112">TS</a>]

00:01:58   and I didn't even know the job title. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/118">TS</a>]

00:02:00   Nick walk and film watching Ashton Kutcher pace around the stage and whatnot and I don't know why [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/120">TS</a>]

00:02:06   but it just really reminded me of the one W.D.C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/126">TS</a>]

00:02:10   I saw where job or jobs was there and he just has this weird like gate to him that I never noticed before. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/130">TS</a>]

00:02:17   Yeah I mean I give them credit. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/137">TS</a>]

00:02:18   I agree that the movie was not as bad as I thought it would be based on what people were saying about it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/138">TS</a>]

00:02:24   But back when it came out but to be clear it was not good but it was not terrible. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/144">TS</a>]

00:02:29   It seemed like they worked so hard to get overall details right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/149">TS</a>]

00:02:32   and then just blew some of the really easy ones that they could've gotten right you know with no additional cost [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/152">TS</a>]

00:02:37   or anything that they could have got these things right and they didn't but you know more. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/157">TS</a>]

00:02:41   Moreover I was just kind of annoyed that it was just weird so weirdly paced [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/161">TS</a>]

00:02:47   and that you know they if they want to tell the story in detail they could have you know glossed over certain parts of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/167">TS</a>]

00:02:53   it faster [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/173">TS</a>]

00:02:54   or you know added ten minutes to the movie to you know to get it to get a little more detail into the story as to how [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/174">TS</a>]

00:03:01   these things happened you know that whole middle era you know maybe do a forty five second montage instead of an eight [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/181">TS</a>]

00:03:06   second montage something like it just seemed like there was a lot of low hanging fruit that they could have grabbed to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/186">TS</a>]

00:03:12   make to make it a better movie and the and for whatever reason they didn't. Now John did you see this movie. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/192">TS</a>]

00:03:19   No nor do I plan to but just got the Sorkin one left to endure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/199">TS</a>]

00:03:23   and then to clear this for a little while this is true and as K.G. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/203">TS</a>]

00:03:28   Points out Tom Bombadil is an even esteemed Jobs movie. It is totally unacceptable. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/208">TS</a>]

00:03:33   Who is well I don't even know if you were just going to keep going we got one of those every show guys that may have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/213">TS</a>]

00:03:37   been the one for the show. Good job so do we want to do any follow up. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/217">TS</a>]

00:03:44   We do we always do we always do John would you like to do some follow up care for a spit a far post from Mike the eye [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/224">TS</a>]

00:03:52   roll or from last week. He sent an e-mail with some clarification a bit from the e-mail. Here's a. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/232">TS</a>]

00:04:00   Things you mentioned the bar is set to hide you know everything about gender issues [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/240">TS</a>]

00:04:03   or anything else you guys talk about that aren't core expertise [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/243">TS</a>]

00:04:06   but that's exactly what I was trying to get out of my feedback. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/246">TS</a>]

00:04:08   If to hide any sort of knowledge about gender issues beyond what is observable in our lives then yes I set the bar too [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/248">TS</a>]

00:04:13   high. I don't think any of the three of you would accept that in any sort of technical field. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/253">TS</a>]

00:04:18   Women in the workplace is probably one of the most studied sociological topics of our generation [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/258">TS</a>]

00:04:22   and want to learn about it just like they can learn about C.P.U. Design. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/262">TS</a>]

00:04:26   I think we very much agree on this topic I was just trying to point out this doesn't need to be some sort of nebulous [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/266">TS</a>]

00:04:30   idea that can only be solved by talking through it. There is data supported answers out there. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/270">TS</a>]

00:04:37   Basically I thought his first email about the eye rolling we start to talk about this topic was that he thought we had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/277">TS</a>]

00:04:44   met whatever bar he was setting as I go boy you go you guys go start [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/284">TS</a>]

00:04:47   and talk about this thing they don't know anything about and not to speak for you too [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/287">TS</a>]

00:04:51   but I certainly pass the test of the bar of having any sort of knowledge I have read tons about this all over the place [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/291">TS</a>]

00:04:56   like this. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/296">TS</a>]

00:04:57   Blogs articles flame wars for years and years like I have I feel like I have read a lot of us [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/297">TS</a>]

00:05:02   but that's all informal like you know just on the internet but I've definitely definitely crossed that bar. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/302">TS</a>]

00:05:07   That's pretty setting it too [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/307">TS</a>]

00:05:09   and as for like the the whole idea that like we don't need to just talk about it as sort of vague concepts like the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/309">TS</a>]

00:05:16   data out there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/316">TS</a>]

00:05:17   and there's things you can learn stuff like that during the whole conversation of sexism of the past two shows I've [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/317">TS</a>]

00:05:22   been intentionally avoiding vocabulary that I know is sort of that are sort of you know terms that are common within [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/322">TS</a>]

00:05:28   this topic right now for two reasons one the people who are familiar with those terms I didn't want to use them because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/328">TS</a>]

00:05:34   using them sort of slots into people's brains in certain areas if I say certain words they mean they think they know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/334">TS</a>]

00:05:40   that we're on the same page we may be talking about different things so by entirely avoiding those words I was forced [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/340">TS</a>]

00:05:45   to explain myself you know in sort of plain language [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/345">TS</a>]

00:05:48   or from first principles of the out relying on jargon that we may or may not agree on the meaning of. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/348">TS</a>]

00:05:53   And two was if I use those words a shorthand jargon then I'm not communicating with the people who don't know any of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/353">TS</a>]

00:05:58   those words. So that way. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/358">TS</a>]

00:06:00   I had to stop myself many times from saying the words that all the people into the conversation probably expected to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/360">TS</a>]

00:06:05   hear [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/365">TS</a>]

00:06:06   and maybe some people heard that interpreted as these guys don't know the talking about they don't even know the vocabulary [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/366">TS</a>]

00:06:12   I definitely didn't have a cab there but I was consciously avoiding it I don't know if that was a good move [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/372">TS</a>]

00:06:15   or a bad move but it's what I chose to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/375">TS</a>]

00:06:17   and I think I think it's for the best because in a topic like that where there's less expectation that our listeners [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/377">TS</a>]

00:06:23   have the same background I get we can use terms about C.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/383">TS</a>]

00:06:26   Using an Apple jargon stuff because presumably people know more about that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/386">TS</a>]

00:06:30   but this topic was a far afield that I want to just talk about it using you know just regular vocabulary to describe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/390">TS</a>]

00:06:36   things and to be honest I'm not even familiar with what vocabulary you were dodging [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/396">TS</a>]

00:06:42   but I would hazard a guess that it is probably for the best that you did indeed force yourself to explain yourself the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/402">TS</a>]

00:06:49   entire time you do you know about as a handle I get I mean I didn't say the word ally I didn't use the word privilege [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/409">TS</a>]

00:06:55   like you know those like any of them are going to get it all sorts of even fancier terms but like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/415">TS</a>]

00:07:00   when you say any of those things people people sort of click into whatever little slot they have in their brain for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/420">TS</a>]

00:07:07   those terms and then sometimes you get out of whack [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/427">TS</a>]

00:07:08   and I think it's better to just explain things the second bit of follow up is that after talking about Oculus [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/428">TS</a>]

00:07:14   and Facebook buyout my glabrous should we also mention the passion is now working for Oculus instead of valve which is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/434">TS</a>]

00:07:21   kind of a bummer for valve because they were working on V.A.R. Stuff as well but hey what can you do. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/441">TS</a>]

00:07:25   So now it's car McNabb rush back together again trying to change the future of course. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/445">TS</a>]

00:07:32   People get excited about that is like all those guys they did so much together earlier in their careers like now it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/452">TS</a>]

00:07:36   like two old men doing it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/456">TS</a>]

00:07:38   and it's kind of like what me expect next revolution run by two young men another begrudging the old man as of being an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/458">TS</a>]

00:07:44   old man myself like you know hey we can still do stuff we saw stuff in us [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/464">TS</a>]

00:07:48   but it's kind of weird that like these people who brought us the revolution of three D. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/468">TS</a>]

00:07:54   First person you know hard work so I read it three games are now trying to bring it to the next red revolution as well. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/474">TS</a>]

00:08:00   Well instead of it being the next generation you know what I mean so that's I think is a testament to these two guys [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/480">TS</a>]

00:08:05   and it's a little bit weird like you know I expect that was the thing with like scientists there is I go you done all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/485">TS</a>]

00:08:12   your best work by the time you're twenty or thirty you never have a second big breakthrough [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/492">TS</a>]

00:08:15   or whatever the cliche is I don't know that's true in technical field open Steve Jobs certainly had two very big acts [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/495">TS</a>]

00:08:21   in his life one very early and one much later so maybe this is the new normal. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/501">TS</a>]

00:08:26   I think it actually could be really nice to have people with a lot of experience and wisdom [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/506">TS</a>]

00:08:31   and who are real experts in their field which these two guys. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/511">TS</a>]

00:08:33   By all measures are to be tackling the problem because the art has been tried so many times in the past [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/513">TS</a>]

00:08:41   and it has failed so many times in the past that like the league they were around for all those failures in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/521">TS</a>]

00:08:46   ninety's and beyond like they were they saw all those things they might have tried some of those things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/526">TS</a>]

00:08:51   or started developing for some of those things and they've seen all of these failed attempts [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/531">TS</a>]

00:08:56   and so having that wisdom in people who are working on the new thing rather than just some twenty year old is going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/536">TS</a>]

00:09:03   recreate all the same mistakes over and over again like Unix [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/543">TS</a>]

00:09:06   and Lisp that it's that will benefit the effort I think tremendously. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/546">TS</a>]

00:09:12   It's kind I think lot of the guys result oversea doing go like they have the experience. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/552">TS</a>]

00:09:17   I think my favorite thing both about go and about like Oculus stuff is that these guys are Russian comic. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/557">TS</a>]

00:09:24   They're not like the C.E.O.'s are like they're not building like a team or like comics [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/564">TS</a>]

00:09:28   and they're writing code like you doing the same thing I mean I was in a slightly higher level but more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/568">TS</a>]

00:09:32   or less doing the same thing he's writing code he hasn't like just travel up that like now I'm big powerful [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/572">TS</a>]

00:09:37   and I run the company I'm a venture capitalist and I'm a master of the universe is there in keyboard typing code right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/577">TS</a>]

00:09:43   And that's refreshing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/583">TS</a>]

00:09:45   Mike average is going to be Don't like they're going to be writing code they're so refreshing to see that you don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/585">TS</a>]

00:09:50   have to like the only path is like you have the beginning you write COBOL and you move on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/590">TS</a>]

00:09:54   and you do you become like the C.E.O. or The C.T.O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/594">TS</a>]

00:09:57   I mean I think the titles probably are something like that but I do. Do you John Crumb I could be writing code. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/597">TS</a>]

00:10:01   That's why he's a hero to so many programmers that you know even now is an old man he's still getting it done [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/601">TS</a>]

00:10:09   and then what else about Oculus and Kickstarter. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/609">TS</a>]

00:10:13   One more feedback feedback from another person in my call probably only get feedback from people in my from Michael now [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/613">TS</a>]

00:10:20   which is fine you know if I thought I was going to be were talking about the Oculus and Facebook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/620">TS</a>]

00:10:26   and so as you guys are explicit almost exclusively characterize the outcry as being from jilted Kickstarter backers. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/626">TS</a>]

00:10:33   Maybe I'm an edge case but many of my friends who don't share my extreme privacy concerns were also not backers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/633">TS</a>]

00:10:39   and were nevertheless saddened by the Facebook news as well. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/639">TS</a>]

00:10:41   So what are you getting out of so you don't think we talk enough about people who don't care one way [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/641">TS</a>]

00:10:45   or the other by Kickstarter backers or you know feel like they've been betrayed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/645">TS</a>]

00:10:48   but just basically people are creeped out by Facebook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/648">TS</a>]

00:10:51   and are worried that now I don't I don't know that I guess they're worried about like Facebook ads being in their face [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/651">TS</a>]

00:10:58   and I'm not going to buy any product that's associated in any way with Facebook was Facebook Facebook is not careful of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/658">TS</a>]

00:11:04   my personal information I feel like they're invading my privacy I mean maybe Marco can address this if he is afraid [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/664">TS</a>]

00:11:09   that I Google is constantly invading his privacy. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/669">TS</a>]

00:11:12   Well I mean what is there really to address I mean Facebook now owns a company that has a lot of potential privacy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/672">TS</a>]

00:11:19   invading stuff in the future. What else is new. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/679">TS</a>]

00:11:21   I mean the fact is you know it's it's going to get increasingly more difficult. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/681">TS</a>]

00:11:26   It already is very difficult now to try to live a life online [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/686">TS</a>]

00:11:31   and use modern technology without having your stuff be in some giant creepy company's database. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/691">TS</a>]

00:11:39   That's just the reality of how we live you know you can you can go as I previously for two hours the full Stallman [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/699">TS</a>]

00:11:43   route which is you know increasingly like Albany to live in the woods [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/703">TS</a>]

00:11:47   and be off the grid like there it's it's becoming increasingly more disconnected from the rest of the world technology [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/707">TS</a>]

00:11:55   if you want to go that route. And so you know. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/715">TS</a>]

00:12:00   If you want to try to avoid Facebook stuff Google stuff Apple stuff you know there's Amazon stuff. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/720">TS</a>]

00:12:08   There's only so far you can run really. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/728">TS</a>]

00:12:10   And so you know my my philosophy with these things though it has been as I said on the on a previous show used to keep [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/730">TS</a>]

00:12:15   a healthy distance like not to be totally off these things not to be totally invisible not to try to conceal my [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/735">TS</a>]

00:12:21   identity from these companies but that's mostly a waste of time they probably know more than you think. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/741">TS</a>]

00:12:25   Or they can infer what you don't tell them based on your other behavior [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/745">TS</a>]

00:12:29   but you know I think it's important for people to be healthily skeptical of these companies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/749">TS</a>]

00:12:39   and critical of these companies and to point out things like hey you know what X. or Y. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/759">TS</a>]

00:12:44   Is going to really give them a lot of information about you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/764">TS</a>]

00:12:46   or they're going to use the information they have a need to do X.Y.Z. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/766">TS</a>]

00:12:50   and Those are all kind of weird and creepy and maybe we don't want that that's fine but I think we have to admit [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/770">TS</a>]

00:12:56   and realize that's just the world we live in and that that's going to happen and we just have to keep tolerating it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/776">TS</a>]

00:13:01   and making a stink where we can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/781">TS</a>]

00:13:04   but it's we're not going to always win every case of Oculus though it seems weird to me because like just because [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/784">TS</a>]

00:13:10   Facebook does its main product that we all know about is you know not privacy everything it doesn't mean that that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/790">TS</a>]

00:13:16   there that's the only way they know how to do it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/796">TS</a>]

00:13:18   Like any product they get they're going to meet or they suck into the Borg and make it you know show Facebook ads [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/798">TS</a>]

00:13:24   and play Facebook games to see your private personal information [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/804">TS</a>]

00:13:26   and Oculus is so far removed from Facebook the product the Web site that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/806">TS</a>]

00:13:30   when you go to receive pictures of your friends and stuff that there's not even a line you can draw on dotted [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/810">TS</a>]

00:13:35   or otherwise it says and therefore our Facebook wall [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/815">TS</a>]

00:13:39   and we are like they're obviously special in the short term Oculus is going to make a thing you put on your face to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/819">TS</a>]

00:13:45   play first person games [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/825">TS</a>]

00:13:46   and I can imagine it having any connection for years to anything having to do with getting any personal information to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/826">TS</a>]

00:13:53   any degree greater than say what Steam does now or anything else like it just it doesn't seem connected [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/833">TS</a>]

00:13:59   and so like to me. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/839">TS</a>]

00:14:00   They say Facebook blog and therefore I'm never going to end it with Oculus that seems way premature to be like. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/840">TS</a>]

00:14:06   Sure don't use it if they doing something you don't like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/846">TS</a>]

00:14:09   or if they could potentially be doing something you know like you're not sure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/849">TS</a>]

00:14:11   but it just seems like they're not connected at this point I mean I don't use Facebook I'm not I have a Facebook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/851">TS</a>]

00:14:18   account but I don't use it for anything. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/858">TS</a>]

00:14:20   I'm just not into it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/860">TS</a>]

00:14:21   but it doesn't mean that I automatically assume that every company Facebook acquires will suddenly be pulled into [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/861">TS</a>]

00:14:27   exactly the same sort of privacy destroying vortex that their main [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/867">TS</a>]

00:14:33   or their flagship product is in a new sponsor this week called to check out number two [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/873">TS</a>]

00:14:40   and the word Check out with no spaces in the middle and the C. Is capitalized. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/880">TS</a>]

00:14:43   I don't know how many of those things are important [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/883">TS</a>]

00:14:45   but just know it's the number to follow I work check to check out is one of the largest global brands in online [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/885">TS</a>]

00:14:51   payments there for example they compete with the likes of Pay Pal Braintree [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/891">TS</a>]

00:14:55   and stripe you probably heard of all of them to check out simplify selling across the globe with a localized checkout [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/895">TS</a>]

00:15:02   experience they really focus on this worldwide thing so they adapt to local languages currencies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/902">TS</a>]

00:15:07   and payment methods specializing in fifteen languages and cultures [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/907">TS</a>]

00:15:11   and available in one hundred ninety six countries over a hundred of the most relevant shopping carts [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/911">TS</a>]

00:15:16   and many of the largest economies platforms have chosen to integrate with to check out even some that advertise here to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/916">TS</a>]

00:15:23   check out has launched a new payment A.P.I. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/923">TS</a>]

00:15:25   That allows you to control the checkout experience you can you can put your brand all over it if you want to with one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/925">TS</a>]

00:15:32   integration. Just integrate with to check out. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/932">TS</a>]

00:15:34   And by doing that you will get accepting twenty six currencies you get top payment method year State of the art fraud [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/934">TS</a>]

00:15:41   system with over three hundred Euro stakes that they've come up with in the industry and new ones added frequently [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/941">TS</a>]

00:15:46   and enhanced recurring billing features if you want to have a subscription priced good or service. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/946">TS</a>]

00:15:51   They have nice recurring billing features Now all this is available to their payment A.P.I. A.P.I. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/951">TS</a>]

00:15:56   Libraries are available in P.H.P. Python Ruby docs. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/956">TS</a>]

00:16:00   That Java node [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/960">TS</a>]

00:16:01   and even simple rest requests that you can try out with her on the command line visit to check out dot com slash K.C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/961">TS</a>]

00:16:09   Now this. Yeah you gotta see this page here. Don't don't take it any further. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/969">TS</a>]

00:16:15   It is an exercise for the listeners it is hysterical. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/975">TS</a>]

00:16:18   You should really check it out it will be worth your thirty seconds to look at this page and look at the animation. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/978">TS</a>]

00:16:24   Yes or go to to the number two in the word check out to check out dot com plus K.C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/984">TS</a>]

00:16:29   To sign up for a free developer sandbox account and see for yourself how how great this is. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/989">TS</a>]

00:16:34   Once again to check out dot com slash Casey thank you very much but I wish these services existed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/994">TS</a>]

00:16:39   when I was running e-commerce sites. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/999">TS</a>]

00:16:41   Yeah we had modems that would dial the credit card companies like over phone lines [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1001">TS</a>]

00:16:47   and we had multiple ones that were using wrangling like you talk about D.P.S. and Stuff in your blog post Margo. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1007">TS</a>]

00:16:52   Imagine wrangling analog modems in Iraq in a data center. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1012">TS</a>]

00:16:56   Not fun and your old Yami even even just a few years ago like when I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1016">TS</a>]

00:17:00   when I built the DE Instapaper subscription thing that was probably an I don't know twenty ten something like that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1020">TS</a>]

00:17:08   Even then these things for you that you couldn't do secretion build like this so I had to use Pay Pal which I hated. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1028">TS</a>]

00:17:13   It was awful in every possible way [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1033">TS</a>]

00:17:15   and I would never recommend using Pay Pal for anything to anybody especially subscriptions which is specially bad at [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1035">TS</a>]

00:17:21   and that's saying a lot because Pay Pal is pretty bad a lot of things but it's it's especially bad at this. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1041">TS</a>]

00:17:28   Right so Amazon decided to get into the console T.V. Sort of game today and they released the Amazon Fire T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1048">TS</a>]

00:17:40   Which apparently involves neither terminations of employment nor flames. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1060">TS</a>]

00:17:48   We call call these television parks but a name for this category. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1068">TS</a>]

00:17:53   I don't know I don't know if it's ever been used before but I dig it. So let's go with it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1073">TS</a>]

00:17:57   I don't know puck to me seems round it's like a slice of it. So owner would be a puck. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1077">TS</a>]

00:18:01   How would you describe the shape. Well this is not a park like but the Roku and Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1081">TS</a>]

00:18:06   Are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1086">TS</a>]

00:18:07   and they kind of define the first segment so now I am that's what I think that's why Amazon thing looks like about well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1087">TS</a>]

00:18:11   two reasons one because it's cheaper to build that way and I was a lot of things to be cheap [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1091">TS</a>]

00:18:15   and to it's visually distinct from the two other big market leaders to be an oracle. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1095">TS</a>]

00:18:21   Fair enough it is it is a rectangular solid state of actually the square I don't know from the top of the square it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1101">TS</a>]

00:18:30   looks like it or it either way I think you're right it looks like all the edges are hard angles and it is just a box. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1110">TS</a>]

00:18:37   I think think of an Apple T.V. but Not rounded in anything just flat side six flat sides not around to direct. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1117">TS</a>]

00:18:44   Although I like the Roku and the Chromecast because it's remote does not need line of sight. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1124">TS</a>]

00:18:50   You don't have to put it anywhere you can see it and that is nice. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1130">TS</a>]

00:18:53   Yes I like it so much so one of the attributes of the thing only went over them on Twitter Mark OK how is it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1133">TS</a>]

00:18:58   distinguished from the apple theory. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1138">TS</a>]

00:19:01   Basically it's I mean it's not as a thing which you might think it has a lot of the same Absalom the same billet is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1141">TS</a>]

00:19:08   it's the same price. It's the same category of device. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1148">TS</a>]

00:19:13   Many of the same you know channel kind of things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1153">TS</a>]

00:19:15   but the biggest difference they put in beefier hardware into it so we can play games. So that's one thing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1155">TS</a>]

00:19:21   So it has more RAM bigger C.P.U. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1161">TS</a>]

00:19:23   Probably And it also has this remote that if it works the way they advertise could be pretty cool because it is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1163">TS</a>]

00:19:29   Bluetooth remote. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1169">TS</a>]

00:19:31   So doesn't need line of sight and it has voice input [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1171">TS</a>]

00:19:34   and you can apparently search by voice for what you're looking for which will be really nice. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1174">TS</a>]

00:19:40   So you know all that to me. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1180">TS</a>]

00:19:45   Oh and they're selling an extra like game controller for it which John I'm sure you'll have a lot to say about maybe [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1185">TS</a>]

00:19:50   but to me the game's part of it is probably not that important because I just I don't know. I think. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1190">TS</a>]

00:20:01   I could be totally wrong with this I think will will end up seeing what happens especially if Apple also makes like an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1201">TS</a>]

00:20:06   upgraded Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1206">TS</a>]

00:20:07   They can play games will see like how that market panned out of like the super cheap game box on T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1207">TS</a>]

00:20:12   That happens to be for the purposes kind of like the opposite of the X. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1212">TS</a>]

00:20:16   Box approach where the X.-Box is like the big beefy gaming machine that happens to have media functionality also that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1216">TS</a>]

00:20:23   kind of a side effect of it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1223">TS</a>]

00:20:24   This is coming from the opposite direction this is like a media box that happens in a place and some games on. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1224">TS</a>]

00:20:30   So we'll see if that takes off. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1230">TS</a>]

00:20:31   Assuming that's irrelevant to you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1231">TS</a>]

00:20:33   or it doesn't take off looking at just the media side of this I think you know you can look at this look at this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1233">TS</a>]

00:20:39   landscape and none of them offer everything that's so true. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1239">TS</a>]

00:20:43   If you want to buy anything from i Tunes You can only play it on the Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1243">TS</a>]

00:20:48   If you want to watch things on Amazon streaming video you can't do that on Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1248">TS</a>]

00:20:53   and Almost everything else can do it but he can't. And so that's the main disconnect. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1253">TS</a>]

00:20:58   So if you want both Amazon Video and i Tunes compatibility you have to buy two devices. But don't forget H.B.O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1258">TS</a>]

00:21:07   Go which is not on the Amazon thing as you pointed out on Twitter right now Carrie and I don't I don't have that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1267">TS</a>]

00:21:13   but a lot of people like it so yeah that's that in there so I think you know right now there is no one device that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1273">TS</a>]

00:21:20   covers everything. Well you said true though I agree with you but it doesn't by virtue of the Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1280">TS</a>]

00:21:28   Being able to receive airplay. Doesn't that to some degree make it an omnivore. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1288">TS</a>]

00:21:32   Now yes it's no longer a standalone thing. I'm not arguing that at all. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1292">TS</a>]

00:21:36   But for example to me I oftentimes find a use for airplay and I use it a lot. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1296">TS</a>]

00:21:43   And so even though there's other boxes that I think I'd like like the Roku [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1303">TS</a>]

00:21:48   and even this is on fire box I keep coming back to no matter what I'm going to want to have an Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1308">TS</a>]

00:21:56   Connected to my T.V. So I can do air play either streaming or mirroring. Well if I've already got this Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1316">TS</a>]

00:22:01   Connected to my T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1321">TS</a>]

00:22:03   I can play Amazon Instant Video I'm assuming through their i Pad app or i Phone app I can use plaques [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1323">TS</a>]

00:22:09   and throw plex to the Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1329">TS</a>]

00:22:11   and In the grand scheme of things I wanted Hill to have native plaques and support within the Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1331">TS</a>]

00:22:19   but I can get pretty close by using my i Pad so it's not standalone which I wish it was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1339">TS</a>]

00:22:26   but it's still sort of an omnivore. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1346">TS</a>]

00:22:28   Yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1348">TS</a>]

00:22:28   and that's that's going to be a popular option I think a lot of people like our friend Jason Snell in chat says that he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1348">TS</a>]

00:22:34   does Amazon's video using airplay to the Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1354">TS</a>]

00:22:37   and He says quote It's not ideal but it works and I think you're right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1357">TS</a>]

00:22:42   That's you know no question I think you can do that you can do airplane. I think any robust home T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1362">TS</a>]

00:22:49   Solution if you're at if you have anything in the Apple ecosystem you're you are very well survey having Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1369">TS</a>]

00:22:55   and I think if you want complete coverage I would say the Apple T.V. and The Amazon Fire T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1375">TS</a>]

00:23:02   Are probably going to be the that's going to be the combo that's good I think is going to is going to like for people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1382">TS</a>]

00:23:07   who are going to have model boxset [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1387">TS</a>]

00:23:09   and that's going to be the company sets in because with Roku it seems like I've never used so maybe I'm missing the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1389">TS</a>]

00:23:16   appeal but it seems like the Amazon Fire T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1396">TS</a>]

00:23:20   Pretty much encompasses all the benefits to get from a Roku another of who has cheaper models [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1400">TS</a>]

00:23:25   and an Amazon right now is not going cheaper than a hundred bucks which is surprising. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1405">TS</a>]

00:23:29   But that's that's where they chose to go. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1409">TS</a>]

00:23:32   So if you if you ignore the price difference between the cheaper of who's And this I would say you know you you cover [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1412">TS</a>]

00:23:40   basically everything with an Apple T.V. Plus the Amazon Fire T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1420">TS</a>]

00:23:44   and So I think that's really where people go who want to cover everything with the hardware. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1424">TS</a>]

00:23:50   I don't have a Roco either but everyone I know has one says that it that it has tons of content [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1430">TS</a>]

00:23:56   and that they like it better than their Apple T.V.'s in terms of the end. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1436">TS</a>]

00:24:00   That's in fact what I was going to say any other really neat thing about some if not all the modern Roku is is that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1440">TS</a>]

00:24:05   they have a headphone jack on the remote and having never used a Roku. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1445">TS</a>]

00:24:09   But I'm at least familiar enough to know that you can actually sit in bed for example. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1449">TS</a>]

00:24:13   Maybe your wife or husband or whatever is passed out next to you but you're still watching T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1453">TS</a>]

00:24:18   and Keeping it quiet because you've plugged your ear buds [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1458">TS</a>]

00:24:21   or headphones into the remote which is you know within a foot of where you're sitting. And that's really cool. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1461">TS</a>]

00:24:27   Yeah I'll give you that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1467">TS</a>]

00:24:29   So it all these things I think the real barrier may be the only barrier that Apple's put up is the whole ecosystem by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1469">TS</a>]

00:24:35   anything because in the Amazon videos what they want to show you is like. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1475">TS</a>]

00:24:38   And look you can have a second screen experience with X. Ray which is really cool like their X. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1478">TS</a>]

00:24:42   Ray stuff is actually cool you know but your second screen experience like this or using your Kindle Fire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1482">TS</a>]

00:24:47   and you can take a video with you and watch it on your fire and then resume and in watching on your big T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1487">TS</a>]

00:24:51   and It's like yeah but what I want to have an i Pad [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1491">TS</a>]

00:24:54   and I'm assuming Amazon bore them to come out with apps for the i Pad to do all these things but Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1494">TS</a>]

00:24:59   Is big advantages. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1499">TS</a>]

00:25:01   Hey you buy stuff on the i Tunes store and you've got on your i Pad and you've got it on your phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1501">TS</a>]

00:25:05   and you go I called all Apple's cloud stuff saying yeah you can only buy stuff on the i Tunes Store on Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1505">TS</a>]

00:25:11   but Once you buy it there you can use it all you know as long as all your devices are Apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1511">TS</a>]

00:25:16   and Amazon want to say the same thing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1516">TS</a>]

00:25:18   Oh you can buy your stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1518">TS</a>]

00:25:19   and you can use all your devices they're not going to force you to buy a can of are they going to try to be everywhere [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1519">TS</a>]

00:25:24   but maybe you don't want to have a Kindle Fire like like well I'd rather have an i Pad [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1524">TS</a>]

00:25:29   and it's kind of like Amazon can't Amazon doesn't have a top to bottom ecosystem [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1529">TS</a>]

00:25:33   or they've got a phone a tablet computer and and a T.V. Thing they just have a small portion of that it's pretty cool. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1533">TS</a>]

00:25:40   Well they tried to be everywhere [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1540">TS</a>]

00:25:41   but it's kind of like it spreads them thin air whereas Apple's us like what we're going to make sure it's the best [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1541">TS</a>]

00:25:45   experience on your Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1545">TS</a>]

00:25:47   and We're going to make that available on your mac and on your phone on your tablet [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1547">TS</a>]

00:25:50   and on whatever else we come out with. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1550">TS</a>]

00:25:53   And that's tough to compete with that big ecosystem because I'm I'm going to I still want an i Pad instead of a Kindle [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1553">TS</a>]

00:25:59   Fire so there's no. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1559">TS</a>]

00:26:00   Advantaged for me to get him is noble it has integration with a kind of farm I don't care about that you know I don't I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1560">TS</a>]

00:26:05   don't care that my Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1565">TS</a>]

00:26:07   Doesn't have Kindle Fire integration I don't and is not going to make me buy this to get you know so I feel better [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1567">TS</a>]

00:26:12   when they try to show that integration because it's like not a selling point [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1572">TS</a>]

00:26:15   but a couple of different other differences between the same empathy that I think are worth pointing out both good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1575">TS</a>]

00:26:20   and bad. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1580">TS</a>]

00:26:21   One is that this does have a warrant apparently at the power supply is not internal so you have to have another one as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1581">TS</a>]

00:26:27   big plug shoving into the big power strip that's behind your entertainment center which is kind of annoying [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1587">TS</a>]

00:26:32   or kind of a shame since it does look like it's actually a little bigger than Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1592">TS</a>]

00:26:36   We're just lucky to even include the AC adapter in the box. Yeah the R.F. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1596">TS</a>]

00:26:40   Remote is great [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1600">TS</a>]

00:26:41   and embarrassing the Apple still does not have that you know I think it has no fan inside it someone's posted a link to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1601">TS</a>]

00:26:49   an exploded view from the presentation it looks like there's no place for a fan in there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1609">TS</a>]

00:26:54   and it makes sense if it's using like you know cell phone caliber parts that it would need to fan the box is plenty big [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1614">TS</a>]

00:26:58   to have you know passive cooling for the for the insides there but I think the whole reason this box [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1618">TS</a>]

00:27:04   and the Roku exist. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1624">TS</a>]

00:27:06   It's Apple's fault for not making apple he better fast enough like the whole thing with Apple's i go they keep you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1626">TS</a>]

00:27:11   proving their products incrementally [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1631">TS</a>]

00:27:13   and before you know they're so far from where they've gone just look at how much more amazing the i Phone five is than [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1633">TS</a>]

00:27:17   the original i Phone. Sure that's for the products they care about but for these hobby products of Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1637">TS</a>]

00:27:22   Has stagnated like crazy like it's ancient hardware [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1642">TS</a>]

00:27:25   and the software features like this is worse than like I was one point no one there oh you got a big grid of icons that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1645">TS</a>]

00:27:30   you have limited control over [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1650">TS</a>]

00:27:32   and we keep adding new icons to it kind of sort of like think of how much better could be we should have search across [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1652">TS</a>]

00:27:37   all services. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1657">TS</a>]

00:27:38   Voice support all these things that we see an apple all the apples other devices [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1658">TS</a>]

00:27:42   and I'm not asking for a thumbprint center on a remote [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1662">TS</a>]

00:27:44   but give us something like There's nothing that that Amazon a Roku has done that Apple couldn't have done years ago [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1664">TS</a>]

00:27:49   they just didn't and I don't know they're just not prioritizing it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1669">TS</a>]

00:27:52   or if they have some other grand plan that is yet to be revealed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1672">TS</a>]

00:27:54   and it will make sense that they've been you know like they're going for such a huge jump over what's come before it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1674">TS</a>]

00:27:59   but they have not. Incrementally made Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1679">TS</a>]

00:28:01   Better at a rate that is they've let competitors catch up to them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1681">TS</a>]

00:28:05   and pass them in so many areas for for no good reason other than just not putting the resources toward that no good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1685">TS</a>]

00:28:11   reason that we know of yet again if they come up with some like and here's our grand plan for T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1691">TS</a>]

00:28:15   and It's likely to unbalance beyond that it's like OK well it took them a while [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1695">TS</a>]

00:28:18   and that's where they were considering all they are right now just like they are letting people catch up with them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1698">TS</a>]

00:28:22   and letting people do things that they should have done a long time ago. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1702">TS</a>]

00:28:25   It's you know whether or not I buy one of these devices it's making me less satisfied with my Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1705">TS</a>]

00:28:29   To know it's like come on Apple everyone else is doing this you've got your stupid you know. I.R. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1709">TS</a>]

00:28:34   Remote no voice command telep terrible interface [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1714">TS</a>]

00:28:37   and occasionally as Merlin will point out occasionally I see the stupid little spinner [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1717">TS</a>]

00:28:41   and it gives me an obscure our message and I have to go unplug lamp T.V. and It annoys me and it makes me sad. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1721">TS</a>]

00:28:47   So you love your Apple T.V. Is what you're saying. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1727">TS</a>]

00:28:49   It's still my favorite Netflix clan I still go to internet place because it has no fan in it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1729">TS</a>]

00:28:53   and because it's better than that sucks client built into my television which has to be on so that's its competition [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1733">TS</a>]

00:28:58   it's got to be on anyway so I could use it as a client [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1738">TS</a>]

00:29:00   and it's second place because it has no fan so what you think about this controller the game controller. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1740">TS</a>]

00:29:07   I mean you can't you can't tell without holding it but it does not look good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1747">TS</a>]

00:29:10   and the history of non gaming companies making game controllers is not good. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1750">TS</a>]

00:29:14   So I'm assuming the game controllable not be all that wonderful at their gaming ambitions that kind of reminds me to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1754">TS</a>]

00:29:21   remember that thing the kick started Android based console used on that thing also apparently had a terrible controller [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1761">TS</a>]

00:29:27   but like it's tough to break into the game business like especially We just want to go casual like oh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1767">TS</a>]

00:29:32   and by the way I play games. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1772">TS</a>]

00:29:33   You'll get like it's like being a mac gamer you get maybe if you're lucky you'll get a pop. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1773">TS</a>]

00:29:38   The most popular three games from a couple years ago and other platforms that all real gamers have already played [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1778">TS</a>]

00:29:43   and maybe it'll be OK for you kids to play them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1783">TS</a>]

00:29:45   and I know I am of the hired a bunch of gaming people to write games for their platform or whatever [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1785">TS</a>]

00:29:49   but I think I did something similar [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1789">TS</a>]

00:29:52   and it's like it's really difficult to to get critical mass in gaming you really need to be dedicated to it if you want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1792">TS</a>]

00:29:57   to be like in like you know AAA papa. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1797">TS</a>]

00:30:00   Again if you just want to be the kind of casual games then you competing with the i O. S. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1800">TS</a>]

00:30:03   Ecosystem or you know like cell phone games [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1803">TS</a>]

00:30:05   and stuff that's difficult to do to the controllers are forty bucks each if you buy two controllers you're almost [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1805">TS</a>]

00:30:11   doubling the cost of the entire thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1811">TS</a>]

00:30:13   and they're not that appear not to be very good controllers from looking at how they're shaped [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1813">TS</a>]

00:30:18   and I can imagine shape aside that Amazon's first controller is up to the standards of a good controller from Microsoft [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1818">TS</a>]

00:30:26   Sony and Nintendo [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1826">TS</a>]

00:30:27   but also I mean it's a type of thing where it's like if they didn't do it it's just like Apple I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1827">TS</a>]

00:30:33   and the Amazon way is like look we've got the hardware there you can play games we can still sell for ninety nine bucks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1833">TS</a>]

00:30:37   why not I think it's a good move Dad and I think it's smart [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1837">TS</a>]

00:30:40   and it takes off fine if it doesn't then it's just another little thing that your T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1840">TS</a>]

00:30:43   Can do like there's so many things that are devices or go to our T.V. Can do like my T.V. Can do the T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1843">TS</a>]

00:30:49   Not anything else but just held in a cell can do like Amazon [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1849">TS</a>]

00:30:52   or Netflix I can stream from my phonology I can pull things from my mac like it does just the television does that like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1852">TS</a>]

00:30:59   everything everything is Netflix built in tuner you can have Amazon Video built [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1859">TS</a>]

00:31:03   and everything is as support for a deal on a server as it just is just a question of which box you want to use [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1863">TS</a>]

00:31:08   and it's it's just you know who who has the exclusives well i Tunes stuff is only from Apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1868">TS</a>]

00:31:14   and Amazon seems to be pretty permits us but something like something like H.B.O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1874">TS</a>]

00:31:20   Go or only on certain platforms [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1880">TS</a>]

00:31:21   and it's just like it's enough already like they're not I'm glad there's a little bit of competition here to try to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1881">TS</a>]

00:31:26   keep Apple honest and try to make their puck better get a really needs to be improved sometime soon [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1886">TS</a>]

00:31:32   but having more little pucks to connect to my T.V. Is not really solving my problem. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1892">TS</a>]

00:31:38   Yeah and that's that's the frustrating part is you know because honestly this is a lot like cable T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1898">TS</a>]

00:31:43   It's like the entire T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1903">TS</a>]

00:31:44   Business always always has been and still is you know we we ask these tech companies Oh please come in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1904">TS</a>]

00:31:50   and save us from bad T.V. Companies. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1910">TS</a>]

00:31:52   But they're just doing the exact same thing which is company A has exclusive content X. You know Company B. Has it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1912">TS</a>]

00:32:00   Platform why. And all these things make it so that there is no like one good solution for everything. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1920">TS</a>]

00:32:05   It's just it's annoying because you know these problems are pretty much doomed to happen you know because these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1925">TS</a>]

00:32:15   business models because of just what happens with publishing content owning content you know making ecosystems on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1935">TS</a>]

00:32:21   ecosystems it will never be in any these companies' best interests to make something that is actually good for us [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1941">TS</a>]

00:32:28   because they'll make it because somebody will have less control or make less money as a result of that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1948">TS</a>]

00:32:32   Well these cable companies like who you got your cable home for so you had a few choices but everybody offered to H.B.O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1952">TS</a>]

00:32:38   Maybe the prices vary slightly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1958">TS</a>]

00:32:39   but you get you going to be an everywhere like there's no way if you lived where if you cable T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1959">TS</a>]

00:32:45   You couldn't get like H.B.O. Showtime E.S.P.N. M.T.V. Like you can always get those things. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1965">TS</a>]

00:32:48   This the exclusive her money more like the game console space where like if you want to love to get a magazine console [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1968">TS</a>]

00:32:54   it's never going to be able to sell so you know Microsoft owns them right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1974">TS</a>]

00:32:57   Or pick whatever you know Mario and and oh [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1977">TS</a>]

00:33:00   and Sony games it's There was you know exclusives to try to bring to the platform [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1980">TS</a>]

00:33:06   and it would annoy like real hardcore gamers who have to buy multiple consuls just for the three [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1986">TS</a>]

00:33:11   or four games that were exclusives because they were good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1991">TS</a>]

00:33:14   but there's a constant battle to see how many big players in the game console space can can be sustained. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/1994">TS</a>]

00:33:20   You can have fifty of them there's just not enough people are going to buy fifty console so the numbers seem to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2000">TS</a>]

00:33:24   around two or three and the T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2004">TS</a>]

00:33:26   Connected puck market we had apple and Roku basically and a couple of the people coming here [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2006">TS</a>]

00:33:32   and there so maybe it's going to be Amazon Apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2012">TS</a>]

00:33:35   and Roku I think you could probably sustain them with them jockeying for exclusive content [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2015">TS</a>]

00:33:40   but then you've got companies like Netflix that want to be everywhere that also are trying to get exclusive content [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2020">TS</a>]

00:33:44   but then they're selling house of house of cards to Comcast for on demand [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2024">TS</a>]

00:33:48   and it's it's a weird weird situation that hopefully going to resolve itself sometime in the next decade or two [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2028">TS</a>]

00:33:56   but right now it is everyone is jockeying for this and I think people better. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2036">TS</a>]

00:34:00   Your position as hard as they can because if you don't you're slow I google it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2040">TS</a>]

00:34:03   Google doesn't have a pocket about Chromecast may have got their fibre T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2043">TS</a>]

00:34:07   Thing but they don't seem to be in the POC market at all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2047">TS</a>]

00:34:11   and it could be that by the time the dust settles they are just fenced out by whoever the two [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2051">TS</a>]

00:34:15   or three big people who won that race are oh yeah I don't see that Google being present in this in this race at all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2055">TS</a>]

00:34:21   because it's always been like you were not always obviously this is everything in tech is pretty young [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2061">TS</a>]

00:34:26   but it's been pretty obvious for a while that the online media market of you know video video content mainly is really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2066">TS</a>]

00:34:36   a two horse race. It's Apple versus Amazon you know Microsoft has their own deals with like X. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2076">TS</a>]

00:34:41   Box Live they used to have I don't know if they still do they probably do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2081">TS</a>]

00:34:43   and you know Google has a couple of things in the Play Store and stuff or Google's got You Tube though [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2083">TS</a>]

00:34:48   and you would think like you know you choose not the same thing You Tube is just a bunch of videos there's not T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2088">TS</a>]

00:34:53   Shows [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2093">TS</a>]

00:34:53   but the amount of like video that my daughter now watches it's You Tube I think it's long since clips television she [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2093">TS</a>]

00:35:01   she watches you tube instead of watching television I don't know that's a trending thing and it will go away [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2101">TS</a>]

00:35:05   but You Tube can't be discounted. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2105">TS</a>]

00:35:08   And I mean Amazon basically I mean Amazon and on [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2108">TS</a>]

00:35:11   and on Google is trying to do Google Video remember that before they bought You Tube Well they made their mother said [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2111">TS</a>]

00:35:16   yeah never mind we're going to we're going to buy You Tube but I mean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2116">TS</a>]

00:35:19   and You Tube is everywhere You Tube is available on my T.V. Is available on my Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2119">TS</a>]

00:35:23   I'm assuming it's available on Amazon things so Google kind of as a worthless race [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2123">TS</a>]

00:35:27   but not a hardware thing they don't have a talk. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2127">TS</a>]

00:35:29   Well and it's probably not in Google's best interest to ever withhold You Tube from a platform and they had Google T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2129">TS</a>]

00:35:38   Like they did make they were the only people to actually try to do my own Everest boxing and I did a bad job of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2138">TS</a>]

00:35:43   and nobody liked it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2143">TS</a>]

00:35:44   and it was never going to work because everybody entire industry hates the idea of such a thing even if it worked well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2144">TS</a>]

00:35:48   which it didn't so that kind of went away. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2148">TS</a>]

00:35:51   I don't know if they'll make another run at it but they were early [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2151">TS</a>]

00:35:54   and they were early with like a big giant platypus awkward thing and it didn't work out for them till they were done. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2154">TS</a>]

00:36:00   Try now I don't I feel like all of this is really about licensing and I say that because the Amazon Fire T.V.. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2160">TS</a>]

00:36:09   Isn't available outside the US right. I don't know that Amazon is historically very bad at non-U.S. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2169">TS</a>]

00:36:15   Media availability precisely and so if this isn't available anywhere else [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2175">TS</a>]

00:36:21   and additionally I think you're right John in saying that we're just kind of running in circles around just getting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2181">TS</a>]

00:36:27   streaming things to our T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2187">TS</a>]

00:36:29   In different ways but the only way I think there's going to be a monumental shift in how T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2189">TS</a>]

00:36:34   Works is if licensed licensing deals change so for example I can go online and order a league [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2194">TS</a>]

00:36:42   or a season pass for getting the New York Giants on my Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2202">TS</a>]

00:36:48   and May be off to pay for that and that's fine but I don't need to worry about whether [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2208">TS</a>]

00:36:51   or not they're playing the Redskins or what blackout situation there is. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2211">TS</a>]

00:36:54   It's just I get to see the Giants always Or perhaps you know you could buy a season pass for How I Met Your Mother [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2214">TS</a>]

00:37:01   which obviously just ended but just for the sake of discussion you have met your mother [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2221">TS</a>]

00:37:05   and you can get those episodes either as they are live or moments after and I think without probably sports [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2225">TS</a>]

00:37:12   and if not sports more widespread stream a ball traditional T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2232">TS</a>]

00:37:17   or Game of Thrones is another great example of not seen it but I understand it's wildly popular [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2237">TS</a>]

00:37:21   and you can't get anywhere but the U.S. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2241">TS</a>]

00:37:24   So without fixing them I don't really feel like any of these pucks are really going to make a tremendous difference in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2244">TS</a>]

00:37:31   our worlds but fixing that as you said John is just a total bag of hurt. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2251">TS</a>]

00:37:35   Well the pucks to the pucks are important because the pucks give you something they can get better at a faster rate [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2255">TS</a>]

00:37:41   than your television and that is extremely important as well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2261">TS</a>]

00:37:44   and one of the Apple four is like they have that advantage [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2264">TS</a>]

00:37:46   and they're not taking advantage of they have three generations of the puck [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2266">TS</a>]

00:37:50   or maybe only two generations of the little Black Hawk before they went from the big giant crazy thing like of Iowa [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2270">TS</a>]

00:37:55   space Apple T.V. and They haven't made it better at the same. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2275">TS</a>]

00:38:00   It's like the slowest moving i Pod Touch I complain about. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2280">TS</a>]

00:38:03   It's been like five hundred days since an update but like Apple T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2283">TS</a>]

00:38:06   The ten update wasn't that long ago but it was like a nothing update and they keep channels [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2286">TS</a>]

00:38:11   but like How far as I was itself [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2291">TS</a>]

00:38:13   or the i Phone come in that same distance this obvious features that their competitors are getting I mean an hour mode [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2293">TS</a>]

00:38:19   Voice Search notion U.I. Games support anything like all these things with there for the taking and not taking it like. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2299">TS</a>]

00:38:25   And so I'm glad to see the parks out there trying like a broker who has improved its hardware and software by leaps [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2305">TS</a>]

00:38:31   and bounds of the same period Apple has not and this is Amazon's first go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2311">TS</a>]

00:38:35   but these little parks give the market an opportunity to churn. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2315">TS</a>]

00:38:40   You know it's cheaper now you know about that you can buy a new one of these every two years not feel bad about it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2320">TS</a>]

00:38:44   and you're not going to buy a new T.V. Every two years unless you're me. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2324">TS</a>]

00:38:49   It lets it lets them chase each other make the tech better make it faster maybe maybe it is more fun to game consuls [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2329">TS</a>]

00:38:55   maybe they don't like maybe these things get better than the T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2335">TS</a>]

00:38:58   when They reach a certain point [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2338">TS</a>]

00:38:59   but like getting a better new television like the worst thing that could happen at this point because you want these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2339">TS</a>]

00:39:02   guys to compete [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2342">TS</a>]

00:39:03   and aerated iterate to get through this awkward beginning period just to kind of settle down to like the feature set [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2343">TS</a>]

00:39:10   and you know if they end up being gaming devices they can never settle down because games we always need more power for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2350">TS</a>]

00:39:15   like you'll never say well this game consuls good novel uses the next twenty years you will not it will not be good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2355">TS</a>]

00:39:19   enough for twenty years like do you want the newest thing eventually so I'm glad these parks exist as an external thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2359">TS</a>]

00:39:26   but like it's not going to be some consolidation coming and I think is going be a long way off. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2366">TS</a>]

00:39:33   You mentioned sports with a local blackout that's probably not going to go away in our lifetime just because of the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2373">TS</a>]

00:39:38   huge amount of money in local television that's going to take forever to get rid of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2378">TS</a>]

00:39:41   and so there's so many barriers to actually you know if you can just wipe the slate clean [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2381">TS</a>]

00:39:46   and say we have the internet pretend there is no pre-existing video let's make a system built on it you could build [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2386">TS</a>]

00:39:52   something that's nice and even and gives consumers choice [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2392">TS</a>]

00:39:54   and as competition never get every content they want for a reasonable price but we don't live in that world. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2394">TS</a>]

00:40:00   We're going to transition from what we have now to take a long time you know I completely agree [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2400">TS</a>]

00:40:05   but is there someone is there a sport that like Team Mobile where they're just seriously desperate to get viewers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2405">TS</a>]

00:40:13   and it's like I think the A M L B is done this and also N.H.L. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2413">TS</a>]

00:40:17   To some degree I guess from what I'm told I'm not a baseball nor hockey fan [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2417">TS</a>]

00:40:22   but from what I gather they're there streaming apps and plans and so on and so forth are actually fairly good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2422">TS</a>]

00:40:32   and I think there are still black outs for sure but they're relatively future looking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2432">TS</a>]

00:40:38   and I'm wondering obviously the N.F.L. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2438">TS</a>]

00:40:40   Never got to this point but wellness all this stuff about concussions actually people pay attention to it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2440">TS</a>]

00:40:46   but anyway you know maybe maybe the young L.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2446">TS</a>]

00:40:49   For the sake of conversation get so desperate that they're like you know what screw the local channels let's just do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2449">TS</a>]

00:40:53   this right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2453">TS</a>]

00:40:54   I'm always going to be the last one to divert from OK maybe I was a poor choice [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2454">TS</a>]

00:40:57   but you know what I'm driving at right is there any sport like that yellow there's W W E which I read an article by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2457">TS</a>]

00:41:03   recently that's a sport Well you know I get it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2463">TS</a>]

00:41:08   It's entertainment anyway like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2468">TS</a>]

00:41:10   and they embrace the Internet as a way to get their content to their viewers because they couldn't get a challenge of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2470">TS</a>]

00:41:16   trying to get like a channel or wrestling channel on cable naked getting a rebuff so they go on the Internet. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2476">TS</a>]

00:41:21   There's also e-sports which is watching people play video games for people who don't know the terminology I think of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2481">TS</a>]

00:41:28   getting it right that's what I call e-sports anyway. It's wildly popular in other countries. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2488">TS</a>]

00:41:32   It's somewhat popular here. That's a natural medium for the Internet Twitch T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2492">TS</a>]

00:41:36   and All that stuff incredibly popular among a certain set of people. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2496">TS</a>]

00:41:41   Yeah there's an opportunity for for sports markets that aren't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2501">TS</a>]

00:41:46   or in any way to send a video to people that don't have a president regular television aren't entangled in these crazy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2506">TS</a>]

00:41:52   relationships for things like baseball and football and you know in the rest of the world I don't know that there are. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2512">TS</a>]

00:42:00   The world is like for soccer and everything [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2520">TS</a>]

00:42:02   but I suppose if you wait for the current generation of people to all die maybe two generations [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2522">TS</a>]

00:42:09   and for people to die then people won't care about watching things on local television anymore [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2529">TS</a>]

00:42:15   and I'll just be so incensed that they can't watch their local team on their i Pad that it will just have to change. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2535">TS</a>]

00:42:20   But certainly for the people who are alive today you got to wait for pretty much all everyone who was an adult [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2540">TS</a>]

00:42:26   when the Internet came into being to die before we can get like a local television out from the local television [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2546">TS</a>]

00:42:31   markets for things like baseball because like how much money the Yankees make from selling exclusive rights to local [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2551">TS</a>]

00:42:37   television broadcast their games is just enormous. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2557">TS</a>]

00:42:40   Yeah I know you're right I'm just I kind of hope for some sport that's the sporting equivalent of T. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2560">TS</a>]

00:42:46   Mobile to be so desperate to just shake things up to just say you know what screw T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2566">TS</a>]

00:42:51   Let's in I think W W E was actually very good example where you just say Screw T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2571">TS</a>]

00:42:57   Let's do it our way and see what happens [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2577">TS</a>]

00:42:59   and I don't think there's going to be anyone that people care enough about kind of like T. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2579">TS</a>]

00:43:04   Mobile to really get a groundswell to push the N.F.L. or M L B or whatever into being more progressive. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2584">TS</a>]

00:43:13   See what happens with the mobile first strategy seems to be employed Altucher point for point. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2593">TS</a>]

00:43:18   Nigga still he's doing things that that at launch sound like oh my God this is this is really going be a big deal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2598">TS</a>]

00:43:24   and then ends up just not really being a big deal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2604">TS</a>]

00:43:26   but because there are I mean there are barriers infrastructure it's like you know they would never do that if they had [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2606">TS</a>]

00:43:31   the cell towers that horizon but if they had the cell towers that Verizon has they wouldn't you know need to do that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2611">TS</a>]

00:43:36   and it's just it's a chicken egg thing so I think it's good that you have you know competitors who need to do more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2616">TS</a>]

00:43:41   radical things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2621">TS</a>]

00:43:42   but it doesn't it doesn't solve their sort of structural weakness like suddenly your signal doesn't get better [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2622">TS</a>]

00:43:49   depending on where you live you know you just there's no getting around physical structure the wires to the old houses [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2629">TS</a>]

00:43:53   or cell towers. Thanks because cell tower that put piece somewhere way down a topic that we happened to get to it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2633">TS</a>]

00:44:00   Here sponsor this week also once again by our friends at Pixelmator also known as picks on the tour. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2640">TS</a>]

00:44:06   A full featured image editing app for the mac now. Yes I know Photoshop exists. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2646">TS</a>]

00:44:13   Most people don't need photoshop and Pixelmator does a lot of things not only the same but actually better [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2653">TS</a>]

00:44:19   and it costs a lot less and does a lot of cool stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2659">TS</a>]

00:44:23   and it's really very Mac like so they just made a brand new three point two F. X. Update. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2663">TS</a>]

00:44:29   It's a major upgrade featuring new powerful tools to play with they have a non-destructive layer style's which is a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2669">TS</a>]

00:44:36   really big deal for anybody doing the stuff they have liquified tools you can liquefy the image and play with it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2676">TS</a>]

00:44:41   and warp it and everything really powerful stuff here. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2681">TS</a>]

00:44:44   Their new image editing engine almost doubled their performance [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2684">TS</a>]

00:44:48   and this is you know one of the criticisms of other major EVs in the field is that they are very Mac like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2688">TS</a>]

00:44:56   or they don't really integrate fully with the U.S. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2696">TS</a>]

00:44:58   or They don't play nice when Apple releases new A P I's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2698">TS</a>]

00:45:01   or they don't optimize Pixelmator is basically the opposite Pixelmator is it has full maverick support it had full [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2701">TS</a>]

00:45:09   maverick support as far as I remember like from day one of mavericks being out it's a ports file ties the ports [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2709">TS</a>]

00:45:14   multiple displays. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2714">TS</a>]

00:45:15   It's very it's very optimized for app nap [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2715">TS</a>]

00:45:19   and the power management stuff in Maverick So if you're going out on a laptop which most people will be it's very very [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2719">TS</a>]

00:45:25   powerful. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2725">TS</a>]

00:45:25   You can always see you can go to the battery shame meter as John says [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2725">TS</a>]

00:45:29   and you can see you know what programs are being shamed into using too much or because there's too much power. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2729">TS</a>]

00:45:35   You can you can compare compute computing prospects [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2735">TS</a>]

00:45:37   and you can see Pixelmator really is very heavily optimized for power saving for all the new stuff. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2737">TS</a>]

00:45:43   They also optimize it very heavily for the new MacPro So if you have a new macro new Pixelmator three point two F.X. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2743">TS</a>]

00:45:50   Has dual G.P.U. Support with Open C.L. It supports sixteen bit images it has a special if I've often is ations. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2750">TS</a>]

00:46:00   A lot of the nations for the P.C.I. Express as S.D. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2760">TS</a>]

00:46:02   and For all the ridiculous memory bandwidth we get on the macro really great system here so pixilated three point two [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2762">TS</a>]

00:46:09   F.X. Was a free upgrade to all just in Pixelmator customers if you are not yet a Pixelmator customer go check it out. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2769">TS</a>]

00:46:17   It is full featured image editing app for the mac going to Pixelmator dot com P C L and A.T.O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2777">TS</a>]

00:46:23   Are Pixelmator dot com to learn more Thanks a lot to Pixelmator for sponsoring our show once again. So the U.S.P.S. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2783">TS</a>]

00:46:31   Consortium people have decided they would like a lightning connector you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2791">TS</a>]

00:46:38   and we actually talked about this back before they had an idea what it would look like back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2798">TS</a>]

00:46:43   when they announced the U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2803">TS</a>]

00:46:45   If announced that they would be looking into this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2805">TS</a>]

00:46:48   and creating a new kind of connector that would be small reversible [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2808">TS</a>]

00:46:52   and you know non sucky because everyone agreed to the U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2812">TS</a>]

00:46:56   Three plugs suck especially the many ones which are ridiculous. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2816">TS</a>]

00:47:00   So they went off and I were going to buy one of these is going to come out soon. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2820">TS</a>]

00:47:05   So this what's new now is that we now have a rendering of what it might look like from the U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2825">TS</a>]

00:47:13   If so I'm not sure if this is actually news or not what I think of News of it if it's accurate. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2833">TS</a>]

00:47:22   Yeah like if they ran the rendering is not just fantasy but just like this is what we planned to build [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2842">TS</a>]

00:47:27   and we haven't built it yet but it's going to look like this when we build it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2847">TS</a>]

00:47:30   That's my impression of what this rendering is. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2850">TS</a>]

00:47:33   Yeah pretty much and you know the rendering basically looks like the halfway point between lightning and mini U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2853">TS</a>]

00:47:42   or Micro U.S.B. Two. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2862">TS</a>]

00:47:43   Well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2863">TS</a>]

00:47:43   when we first talked about it I think I said that like it has to look like a lightning connector because what else can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2863">TS</a>]

00:47:48   you do in anything that small it has to be like Oh I think that trees are so darn small Certainly you can't make it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2868">TS</a>]

00:47:52   like a shrunken version of the regular U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2872">TS</a>]

00:47:55   Connector will work at those sizes which is why lightning looks like it does but then a. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2875">TS</a>]

00:48:00   Bill said I think you guys about it like well lightning is expensive to make and you can't be as precious [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2880">TS</a>]

00:48:05   and beautiful Lightning connector has to be cheap for everybody to make I just think they can come up with a connector [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2885">TS</a>]

00:48:11   that was that small [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2891">TS</a>]

00:48:12   and also not pretty much exactly like a lightning connector like a solid piece of metal with contacts side [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2892">TS</a>]

00:48:17   and looks like from these drawings that they've somehow decided that they're going to make it the size [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2897">TS</a>]

00:48:23   and shape of lightning connector but still have it be hollow. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2903">TS</a>]

00:48:26   So the in the connector slot is a little more must be a microscopic extremely thin little thing with contacts on it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2906">TS</a>]

00:48:33   that goes into the hole in the connector in a grand and it fits both ways and it should be pretty easy to line that up. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2913">TS</a>]

00:48:38   But boy I'm worried about that in terms of durability like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2918">TS</a>]

00:48:41   but once you get down to that size the lighting had to make so much sense it's like it's going to be so small anyway [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2921">TS</a>]

00:48:46   you better make it solid for the kind of from the outside. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2926">TS</a>]

00:48:49   I can't like I don't I will have to see the real I guess is conceivable that it could be done [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2929">TS</a>]

00:48:55   but I'm super worried about having to shove a little tiny thing inside a little tiny microscopic hole even if it fits [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2935">TS</a>]

00:49:01   both ways. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2941">TS</a>]

00:49:03   Yeah I think about too that the Jack side of it is going to be on phones which means we're going to be in people's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2943">TS</a>]

00:49:07   pockets get filled up with lint [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2947">TS</a>]

00:49:09   and the hat like to have the tolerances be so small like you know we saw some of this with the old thirty pin dock an [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2949">TS</a>]

00:49:16   actor which had a similar kind of design but it was larger of course was way bigger way bigger than this look. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2956">TS</a>]

00:49:23   Yes but [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2963">TS</a>]

00:49:23   but you know you can see like OK if you have a really really thin you know flat car type you know connector on one side [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2963">TS</a>]

00:49:31   and then like you know a jack on the other side like you know cable doesn't get in there it's going to have weird [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2971">TS</a>]

00:49:37   contacts going to have weird you know pressure issues it might snap it or bended or whatever like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2977">TS</a>]

00:49:42   and that was at that thickness for the dock connector that that actually happened didn't happen a lot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2982">TS</a>]

00:49:46   but it did occasionally happen. At this this is an even smaller connector by a lot. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2986">TS</a>]

00:49:52   It's narrower sibilant there's less area to bend and it just seems that looks like if they can. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/2992">TS</a>]

00:50:00   Old us off it's going to be great it's going to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3000">TS</a>]

00:50:01   and not as lightning because of that because of that you know more complicated physical design in the connector [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3001">TS</a>]

00:50:08   but if they actually pull this off great good for them. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3008">TS</a>]

00:50:12   I just have doubts that they will be able to or that if they do I have doubts it'll be very durable. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3012">TS</a>]

00:50:16   That's the big thing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3016">TS</a>]

00:50:18   I'm going to go around everyone's laptop or our Smart roll on these connectors on a stick by fingernail [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3018">TS</a>]

00:50:23   and there you go snap you know you can actually broken right interesting region there with different email snap every [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3023">TS</a>]

00:50:30   one of those who wants a little printed circuit board snaps that like it's such a small opening and dust [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3030">TS</a>]

00:50:35   and everything. The stopping small of any way that I think dust might might even be a problem. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3035">TS</a>]

00:50:39   People who keep their like i Phones in their pocket now I don't know what gets shoved to the Lightning connector. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3039">TS</a>]

00:50:44   But at least you got the full width [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3044">TS</a>]

00:50:45   and height of that connector this year less than having it something's less than half the width of that connector can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3045">TS</a>]

00:50:52   get jammed in there because jammed between the internal tongue and the top [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3052">TS</a>]

00:50:55   or bottom that's you know that's a small margin there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3055">TS</a>]

00:50:59   and what could that time be made out of such that it stiffen up to go into the little hole in the line up correctly. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3059">TS</a>]

00:51:04   But not so stiff that I can break it off with my fingernail. Right and U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3064">TS</a>]

00:51:08   Also you know as we discussed previously one of the reasons why the U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3068">TS</a>]

00:51:13   Centers were always so plain and bland [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3073">TS</a>]

00:51:16   and crappy is because one of their design goals has always been to be very very cheap [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3076">TS</a>]

00:51:20   and that's one of the reasons why U.S.B. Has become universal. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3080">TS</a>]

00:51:23   Why live a little to its name because it was really cheap to implement and the harbours are really cheap [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3083">TS</a>]

00:51:28   and the connectors Rob really cheap [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3088">TS</a>]

00:51:29   and there are you know the tolerances were pretty big in some of these things that you could make a pretty whacked out [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3089">TS</a>]

00:51:34   connector or cable and it would still work. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3094">TS</a>]

00:51:37   And obviously as things get better faster more advanced that you know the tolerances are going to have to shrink [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3097">TS</a>]

00:51:41   and get tighter [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3101">TS</a>]

00:51:41   but this I am I'm afraid to see how this will be implemented badly because it will be everything the U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3101">TS</a>]

00:51:50   Standard ever U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3110">TS</a>]

00:51:51   Standard becomes implemented badly among a lot of devices that are out there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3111">TS</a>]

00:51:56   and you're going to buy like a ten dollars card reader or a fifteen. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3116">TS</a>]

00:52:00   Our external drive enclosure or something like those are going to have not the best quality connectors on them [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3120">TS</a>]

00:52:06   and if this becomes a new standard which you know if it doesn't it's kind of pointless. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3126">TS</a>]

00:52:11   You kind of want to become the standard. All those super cheap U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3131">TS</a>]

00:52:15   Devices out there that work that are part of what makes us be so great. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3135">TS</a>]

00:52:19   Those are going to have some really dodgy connectors I think I think about this I think about this is the present Apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3139">TS</a>]

00:52:26   devices which I think we would all agree have extremely precise cut outs for the connectors on them like a laser cut [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3146">TS</a>]

00:52:34   things that usually line up pretty darn well. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3154">TS</a>]

00:52:36   But Apple also has a tendency to you know design it's things without regard to connectors so for example on the back of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3156">TS</a>]

00:52:42   a twenty seven inch thunderbolt display or any of those curved displays they have U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3162">TS</a>]

00:52:47   Ports on the back but the back is curved [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3167">TS</a>]

00:52:49   but the ports obviously have to be you have to plug the plugs in perpendicular to the connector [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3169">TS</a>]

00:52:55   and these are big chunky full size U.S.B. Know the a type connector like you know regular U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3175">TS</a>]

00:53:02   Connectors very often I find it difficult to plug in the connectors because you're not sure what angle it supposed to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3182">TS</a>]

00:53:08   go out and I've seen Apple displays where people have done that struggle like trying to get the thing plugged in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3188">TS</a>]

00:53:14   and not that they've suddenly bent the little plastic thingy that's inside a U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3194">TS</a>]

00:53:19   Connectors to make makes it even more difficult to plug it in because now it's kind of like bend in the wrong direction [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3199">TS</a>]

00:53:23   he had to kind of get past that little threshold to go in and these are the big humongous chunky U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3203">TS</a>]

00:53:29   Connectors that they have they haven't broken. But they're knowing to plug in because you have to line something up. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3209">TS</a>]

00:53:34   And by people struggling with it they've made it worse by bending something in the wrong direction this is going to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3214">TS</a>]

00:53:40   that same problem on Apple devices anyway multiplied many times over by the way I know this is a ridiculous thing to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3220">TS</a>]

00:53:47   complain about but try having a cylindrical computer it's actually substantially worker. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3227">TS</a>]

00:53:51   Oh you have if you had to guess what angle they have to go and I don't like you deserve it. I do you're right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3231">TS</a>]

00:53:57   If you're having trouble with this when you can get it. It's under my way whether or not your hand. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3237">TS</a>]

00:54:02   But like the beauty of the Lightning connector is that if you can find the hole just start shoving [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3242">TS</a>]

00:54:08   and it will align itself like there's nothing you have to line up it within the hole you have to get the metal thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3248">TS</a>]

00:54:13   into the slot and just press and it will it will light self up which is not true of U.S.B. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3253">TS</a>]

00:54:17   or Firewire eight hundred even worse like five or eight hundred connector needs to be burned with fire I guess. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3257">TS</a>]

00:54:24   So hard to plug things into they have so many little details that have to be lined up. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3264">TS</a>]

00:54:28   Try pulling on one of those in the back of an apple Thunderball display most of that is Apple's fault [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3268">TS</a>]

00:54:32   but I'm just saying like a connector that can tolerate that type of environment is best [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3272">TS</a>]

00:54:38   and I'm not sure about this one. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3278">TS</a>]

00:54:41   We're also sponsored this week once again by our friends at Warby Parker where we park a believe that prescription [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3281">TS</a>]

00:54:46   eyeglasses simply should not cost three hundred dollars or more. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3286">TS</a>]

00:54:50   They should even be affordable enough people to accessorize [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3290">TS</a>]

00:54:52   and have multiple pairs if they want to worry Parker bypassing the traditional channels. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3292">TS</a>]

00:54:57   They sell higher quality better looking prescription eyewear online at a fraction of the price starting at just ninety [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3297">TS</a>]

00:55:03   five dollars. Go to Warby Parker dot com slash A.T.P. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3303">TS</a>]

00:55:07   You know I actually we did a sponsor last week some people in the chat were pointing out that I didn't realize it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3307">TS</a>]

00:55:12   like almost every eyeglass store [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3312">TS</a>]

00:55:15   and almost every company is owned by like one big company like looks like I think it's in any way. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3315">TS</a>]

00:55:21   It's like I didn't realize a quite how much consolidation there is in this business but worry Parker is independent [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3321">TS</a>]

00:55:25   and this is why to be able to bypass this tremendous distribution system by this conglomerate. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3325">TS</a>]

00:55:31   I didn't say that in fact I hope I don't get in trouble for saying that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3331">TS</a>]

00:55:34   but that's why they're able to do this because there's a huge monopoly power there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3334">TS</a>]

00:55:39   and they're just bypassing completely [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3339">TS</a>]

00:55:42   and passing the savings along to you so they have these great vintage inspired designs with a contemporary twist. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3342">TS</a>]

00:55:48   Every pair is custom fit and it comes with anti-reflective anti-glare polycarbonate prescription lenses [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3348">TS</a>]

00:55:54   and every pair comes with a hard case and a clean cloth there's no like weird at all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3354">TS</a>]

00:55:58   and they don't start jacking up the price. If you start adding up the things you actually need. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3358">TS</a>]

00:56:02   There's no like well you can get the base price model which sucks [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3362">TS</a>]

00:56:05   or you can get the one that you actually want it won't fall apart in two days for you know six hundred bucks. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3365">TS</a>]

00:56:10   Nothing like that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3370">TS</a>]

00:56:11   Buying glasses online sounds like it would be risky so you know how would you know where the fit or how to look on you. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3371">TS</a>]

00:56:17   Well they had you covered with these two pretty impressive things so number one it is tools on their site where you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3377">TS</a>]

00:56:23   use your webcam. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3383">TS</a>]

00:56:24   You take a picture yourself you can take an overlay [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3384">TS</a>]

00:56:26   and it can show you exactly how the glasses will look on you right from the webcam [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3386">TS</a>]

00:56:30   and then they have this even better thing which is the home try on program. So here's how this works. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3390">TS</a>]

00:56:36   You go to their site you pick out up to five pairs if you don't pick out all five they'll send you five anyway they'll [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3396">TS</a>]

00:56:40   take a picture for you. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3400">TS</a>]

00:56:41   You pick out five pairs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3401">TS</a>]

00:56:43   and they will send you the frames you can try on for free right in your home heating for a couple days if ever you need [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3403">TS</a>]

00:56:50   decide decided home askers living another walk around asking people to work whatever you want to do. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3410">TS</a>]

00:56:55   Decide on whatever these frames you want and if you don't like any of them that's about decision too. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3415">TS</a>]

00:56:59   But I bet you like one of them at least. So take out the one you want. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3419">TS</a>]

00:57:04   Send them back the box and then you can place an order to have that with your prescription in it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3424">TS</a>]

00:57:08   All that is free there is no charge for the home Tran program they pay they pay to ship it to you. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3428">TS</a>]

00:57:13   They pay to ship it back. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3433">TS</a>]

00:57:14   All that very very simple very very good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3434">TS</a>]

00:57:17   and you can do a couple of these if you want to if you don't find what you want the first time. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3437">TS</a>]

00:57:21   Get another batch but I bet you're going to find what you want they have a great selection. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3441">TS</a>]

00:57:25   They also have prescription [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3445">TS</a>]

00:57:26   and non-prescription polarized sunglasses which I love personally if you have if you only ever had a non-polar [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3446">TS</a>]

00:57:32   or sunglasses Trust me you don't know what you're missing so good where we park a dot com a RB why. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3452">TS</a>]

00:57:39   P A R K E R dot com slash A.T.V. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3459">TS</a>]

00:57:42   Check out their great selection of premium quality affordable eyewear and get your home trying to get risk free. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3462">TS</a>]

00:57:48   Thanks a lot to worry Parker for sponsoring our show once again so we should probably at some point talk about this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3468">TS</a>]

00:57:56   employee poaching thing. That seems to have started in the valley but spread quiet a long ways away from there. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3476">TS</a>]

00:58:06   So what this is about is Apple and Google especially seem to be pointed at the most. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3486">TS</a>]

00:58:12   But many companies I think the number was like twenty or thirty companies something like that were accused of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3492">TS</a>]

00:58:18   and from all accounts seem to have tried to avoid hiring from each other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3498">TS</a>]

00:58:26   and made agreements that they would try to keep wages the same not hire from each other it really is extremely crummy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3506">TS</a>]

00:58:34   And so this is false it's in trial now is that correct. Neither of us have been a no I don't know. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3514">TS</a>]

00:58:42   I I don't know enough about this. Do we know for sure the articles I've read which admittedly have not been enough. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3522">TS</a>]

00:58:50   I keep seeing it being referred to as a wage fixing cartel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3530">TS</a>]

00:58:53   but I haven't actually seen anything about the way things have seen anti-poaching agreements which you know might have [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3533">TS</a>]

00:58:59   the effect of keeping wages down [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3539">TS</a>]

00:59:00   but is there actual were they actually agreeing to like keep salary levels at a certain range [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3540">TS</a>]

00:59:07   and the same thing has been labeling with a secondary effect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3547">TS</a>]

00:59:10   but it's all it's all the same thing you can agree with a bunch of companies all can't agree with each other. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3550">TS</a>]

00:59:14   I want I want higher from you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3554">TS</a>]

00:59:15   and you want higher for me in that way we will have to pay our people more like us the implied secondary effect [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3555">TS</a>]

00:59:20   and it's actually even worse than that if you saw some of the e-mails I think it's going to be in trial now because I [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3560">TS</a>]

00:59:24   don't want to be seen as a one of them. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3564">TS</a>]

00:59:25   One situation that was detailed in these it was either a deposition or e-mail or both. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3565">TS</a>]

00:59:30   It was like a bunch of people left Apple and went to work for Google So Google didn't post them. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3570">TS</a>]

00:59:36   They left apple of their own accord and went to work for Google [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3576">TS</a>]

00:59:40   and Google wanted to set them up I forgot the skills group be able to set them up doing something in an office [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3580">TS</a>]

00:59:46   somewhere. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3586">TS</a>]

00:59:47   And before they did that they were in touch with Steve Jobs and say hey we've got some people here [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3587">TS</a>]

00:59:52   and they used to work for you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3592">TS</a>]

00:59:53   and they want they want to set them up in an office here is that OK with you Steve I know you were close to these [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3593">TS</a>]

00:59:58   people whatever it is I want to make sure. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3598">TS</a>]

01:00:00   And and they're like well you know they were talking myself I was one of those and I work in an i Phone stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3600">TS</a>]

01:00:05   or whatever I bet it will be OK with Steve like. So first of all the whole premise that you have to call the C.E.O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3605">TS</a>]

01:00:10   Of your competitor to make sure that you are allowed to hire his employees who left of their own accord. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3610">TS</a>]

01:00:15   It's crazy and then saying well we can we can hire them make sure they're not working [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3615">TS</a>]

01:00:18   and you know make Steve angry so we can have them work on mobile phone or anything like that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3618">TS</a>]

01:00:22   But surely if we agree they're not going to work in a mobile phone starts they will be OK with it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3622">TS</a>]

01:00:25   or whatever in the end. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3625">TS</a>]

01:00:26   Steve Jobs then so I said I would prefer you don't hire those people and so he didn't like it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3626">TS</a>]

01:00:31   and they didn't put in the work and that office they were going to set up for them like that is that's crazy. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3631">TS</a>]

01:00:36   That is super illegal and terrible handy competitive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3636">TS</a>]

01:00:40   and just like what's going through these people's heads these companies are that this is the way things should be done [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3640">TS</a>]

01:00:45   that you know that you would like get the OK to look at what your employees are going to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3645">TS</a>]

01:00:53   or whether you're going to hire people from your like your fiercest competitor obviously this is maybe before they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3653">TS</a>]

01:00:58   already tell this throat but it just make you sick to your stomach to think about that like these people's lives [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3658">TS</a>]

01:01:04   and careers are altered by the whim of like a person who runs the company they don't work for anymore. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3664">TS</a>]

01:01:11   Right and the other thing I saw was that apparently Facebook basically said screw that tough no B.S. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3671">TS</a>]

01:01:17   and Because of that apparently Google decided Well a lot of our people are going to Facebook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3677">TS</a>]

01:01:24   and since we can't get Facebook to agree not to poach our people can we do. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3684">TS</a>]

01:01:30   We should probably try to convince our people to stay although we could pay them more. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3690">TS</a>]

01:01:35   That's what we could do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3695">TS</a>]

01:01:37   and so they just they gave everyone I think in the entire company a thousand dollar spot bonus [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3697">TS</a>]

01:01:43   and raise salaries ten percent. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3703">TS</a>]

01:01:46   I'm almost sure that's right it was in one of the links open the show notes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3706">TS</a>]

01:01:49   but yet because they weren't poaching I'm sorry because they were poaching Facebook was poaching Google people. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3709">TS</a>]

01:01:57   Google suddenly realized we should probably pay our people more. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3717">TS</a>]

01:02:00   So markets your point earlier you know even though it may not enjoy saying this even though it may not on the surface [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3720">TS</a>]

01:02:06   sounds like wage fixing the net effect was wage mixing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3726">TS</a>]

01:02:10   and this is totally like I mean this is not just an apple problem as many companies involved will [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3730">TS</a>]

01:02:15   and many others like them go get it is the most famous and they're in the headlines right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3735">TS</a>]

01:02:18   but like regardless of all the other companies involved this is one hundred percent a Steve Jobs thing to do because in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3738">TS</a>]

01:02:24   his mind like he's like look I'm trying to do great things here and I need great people do great things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3744">TS</a>]

01:02:28   and you stealing my people piss me off [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3748">TS</a>]

01:02:30   and makes harder for me to do great things so why don't we all captains of industry get together just agree not to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3750">TS</a>]

01:02:34   steal each other's people because it'll make everybody's life easier we all hate it now finally we can get back to work [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3754">TS</a>]

01:02:39   which is basically putting Steve Jobs desires a desire to change the world Apple above the lives of all the employees [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3759">TS</a>]

01:02:45   of all these companies like we don't care if you can get make more money or you can move to a different city [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3765">TS</a>]

01:02:49   and get equal you know tech job like or a different country [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3769">TS</a>]

01:02:53   or whatever because I don't care about your mobility in your life I just care about doing great things [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3773">TS</a>]

01:02:58   and so my demands as C.E.O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3778">TS</a>]

01:03:00   Are trump all these employees and this is the way it should be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3780">TS</a>]

01:03:04   and like someone in the chair asked why on earth would it would do go ask Apple if it was OK if they're legally in the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3784">TS</a>]

01:03:09   clear [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3789">TS</a>]

01:03:09   when they just hire the person like the whole point googled in one apple stealing it's people Apple did my Google thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3789">TS</a>]

01:03:13   it's people who think that churn turnover the problem for both companies a raise they would have to raise all their all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3793">TS</a>]

01:03:18   their payroll to keep the people that they wanted [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3798">TS</a>]

01:03:20   and they just like look at these are for both of us if we just agree that still it has people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3800">TS</a>]

01:03:24   and Facebook didn't agree to that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3804">TS</a>]

01:03:25   Mostly people think because most people want to go to work for Facebook alias maybe they're that point they're like pre [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3805">TS</a>]

01:03:31   I.P.O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3811">TS</a>]

01:03:31   Shares or it was there was more upside to Facebook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3811">TS</a>]

01:03:34   or like Facebook was stealing people because they were offering more stuff [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3814">TS</a>]

01:03:38   and Facebook's like we're not going to Grizz because we're stealing all of your people you and I still in our people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3818">TS</a>]

01:03:42   and the reason I think Facebook was stealing all their people because they offered the more you have attentional to be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3822">TS</a>]

01:03:46   richer if you come to work for Facebook like they were younger company maybe you'll get some pre I.P.O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3826">TS</a>]

01:03:51   Shares maybe you'll get some shares of that much bigger upside than these more mature companies will pay you more it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3831">TS</a>]

01:03:56   more exciting maybe your boarded up or Google or whatever. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3836">TS</a>]

01:04:00   Facebook was hiring people the old fashioned way and stealing people from everybody [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3840">TS</a>]

01:04:03   and of course Facebook's not going to great with their whole strategy is we're going to steal all your employees by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3843">TS</a>]

01:04:07   offering them better stuff which like Casey pointed out made Google say well I guess the only until we have a retention [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3847">TS</a>]

01:04:12   against Facebook is to pay our employees more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3852">TS</a>]

01:04:14   and in a competitive market where people of these skills are in high demand they're supposed to get paid more the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3854">TS</a>]

01:04:19   companies aren't supposed to collude to make sure that these people can't be mobile in their careers it's this whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3859">TS</a>]

01:04:24   whole story of infuriating as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3864">TS</a>]

01:04:26   and I totally see it as like the the worst it's kind of like the good side of Steve Jobs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3866">TS</a>]

01:04:31   or you just want to get the job done [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3871">TS</a>]

01:04:32   but the worst side of the jobs is he doesn't care you know what kind of damage he leaves in his wake to get what he [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3872">TS</a>]

01:04:38   wants and neither do any of the other companies as well not to Steve Jobs [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3878">TS</a>]

01:04:41   and all the other people who agreed to this it's it's a terrible attitude just makes me sick reading this whole story [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3881">TS</a>]

01:04:48   John Gruber's been doing some great commentary on this because it really does show like this is the kind of thing that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3888">TS</a>]

01:04:55   you know Apple is not worse off in every way with Tim Cook. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3895">TS</a>]

01:05:00   There are there's a few ways that they're better off with Tim Cook [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3900">TS</a>]

01:05:02   and I think this is one of them where I don't allow out of people I really don't think this would have happened with [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3902">TS</a>]

01:05:08   Tim Cook at the helm because he's it's not really his style he's very careful he's like he's very pragmatic he's he's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3908">TS</a>]

01:05:15   very kind of unemotional about these things he seems he's also very cutthroat So I not sure about this because he he is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3915">TS</a>]

01:05:25   very demanding and cut throat. Thus far it's a good bet like this from the outside. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3925">TS</a>]

01:05:30   The image that Tim copra Trey's we all have trouble seeing him doing stuff like this where we don't have trouble seeing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3930">TS</a>]

01:05:35   Steve Jobs but I think the jury's still out. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3935">TS</a>]

01:05:38   It's not quite accurate to make this all about money and wages because he's for all the companies involved. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3938">TS</a>]

01:05:44   Like I don't think Steve Jobs give a crap about what he was paying his engineers [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3944">TS</a>]

01:05:49   and whether this to keep their wages down. I don't think that has anything to do with his end of it all. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3949">TS</a>]

01:05:52   I think his and if it was all about like vengeance and control and he didn't want to boil tea right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3952">TS</a>]

01:06:00   Didn't want to lose his people to like to this evil company Google that was stealing his products from him like that's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3960">TS</a>]

01:06:05   it was probably it was almost certainly like this emotional [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3965">TS</a>]

01:06:09   and controlling thing from Steve Jobs not at all about salaries [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3969">TS</a>]

01:06:12   and salaries were simply a side effect of it that he probably didn't even think or care about. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3972">TS</a>]

01:06:16   Well that's a thing he thinks you should stay there because you want to like he's like I shouldn't have to pay you more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3976">TS</a>]

01:06:21   you should stay here because the working rapport you had to work for the best company in the world [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3981">TS</a>]

01:06:25   and it's insulting to me that you expect me to pay you more money to stay here. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3985">TS</a>]

01:06:29   But at the same time he also didn't want to lose those people who is like well it's a he's Of Two Minds who thinks like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3989">TS</a>]

01:06:34   you should be should be staying here because you love it so much [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3994">TS</a>]

01:06:36   but I'm going to make sure that even if you want to leave you couldn't because you wouldn't get anything better [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/3996">TS</a>]

01:06:40   anyplace else you might want to stay so being crap [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4000">TS</a>]

01:06:42   and you're like if you really want to be able to stay here just pay them more money. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4002">TS</a>]

01:06:46   Well no see no that's the problem that's the other flaw in this argument is that engineers especially people who are [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4006">TS</a>]

01:06:53   out on the West Coast you can choose between many very well known tech companies to work for without really uprooting [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4013">TS</a>]

01:06:59   their life too much. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4019">TS</a>]

01:07:01   It's like these companies get employees they get talent because of what they're doing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4021">TS</a>]

01:07:07   and what they're you know what's interesting about them. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4027">TS</a>]

01:07:10   Engineers are famously not as motivated by money as you would think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4030">TS</a>]

01:07:13   and generally speaking if somebody is thinking about leaving Apple for Google say giving them ten thousand dollars more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4033">TS</a>]

01:07:19   an apple is not going to really change that decision that for that long or at all. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4039">TS</a>]

01:07:23   It's really it's not a very effective way to keep people if you have people like looking around because they're bored [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4043">TS</a>]

01:07:30   or unhappy at their job. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4050">TS</a>]

01:07:31   Money is a terrible way to fix that because it just doesn't work that well in the individual level maybe not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4051">TS</a>]

01:07:36   but in the grand scheme of things it does like that's why Facebook was able to grab these people like Apple is a more [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4056">TS</a>]

01:07:41   exciting place to work than Facebook you're going to work in more interesting things that are more appealing to the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4061">TS</a>]

01:07:45   average engineer than you with Facebook like that's not even that depends on what kind of engineer your team your site [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4065">TS</a>]

01:07:52   I think like even even if you get to be unlike the glory team where you get to like make the new cool paper app [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4072">TS</a>]

01:07:57   and everything like that there's equal glow. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4077">TS</a>]

01:08:00   We've positions that Apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4080">TS</a>]

01:08:01   and probably if you really care about your thing being used in a long term buy a lot of people you have to put your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4081">TS</a>]

01:08:05   money on Apple like you design the next version of i O. S. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4085">TS</a>]

01:08:08   Is probably going to have more longevity in impact than design even the very tip top flagship cool new U.I. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4088">TS</a>]

01:08:14   Thing like paper or the Facebook Phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4094">TS</a>]

01:08:16   or whatever think like you know Apple has the Apple has the projects to offer people. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4096">TS</a>]

01:08:22   Facebook should never be able to steal people from Apple except on the server side which obviously that's a whole [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4102">TS</a>]

01:08:27   different story. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4107">TS</a>]

01:08:28   And you get retention there is probably not just money but all I have heard [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4108">TS</a>]

01:08:33   and I know so little about what goes on in Apple but everyone I know who has work there like we see people coming go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4113">TS</a>]

01:08:42   and they go not because they don't like apple anymore [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4122">TS</a>]

01:08:44   but dislike because you burn out on it like it's tough to work with an apple is a hard job it's hard work. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4124">TS</a>]

01:08:50   There are crunch times kind of almost like a game developer you know like this this sort of crunch time that everyone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4130">TS</a>]

01:08:56   except they're going to exist and you just do what you have to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4136">TS</a>]

01:08:59   and that can really bring you right after we're on someone you just want to relax [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4139">TS</a>]

01:09:02   and also you want to just do your own thing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4142">TS</a>]

01:09:03   and within Google I think there used to be more latitude to do your own thing and less of a crunch time. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4143">TS</a>]

01:09:10   There's a lot of factors that contribute towards you know deciding whether you want to stay [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4150">TS</a>]

01:09:14   or you know leaving come back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4154">TS</a>]

01:09:17   but this type of agreement doesn't allow you the mobility shuts out all of those because they all agree not to hire [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4157">TS</a>]

01:09:24   anyone else. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4164">TS</a>]

01:09:24   Like then you don't have to worry about making your employees happy or is in any way giving them more money [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4164">TS</a>]

01:09:29   or giving them more flexibility to do interesting projects on their own [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4169">TS</a>]

01:09:33   or not not subjecting everyone to the massive crunch times. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4173">TS</a>]

01:09:37   All those tools like it's like oh we don't worry about that anymore because where that where the heck are they going to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4177">TS</a>]

01:09:40   go we have this agreement with all the companies in the area. Yeah. So you go back a step. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4180">TS</a>]

01:09:46   This was all happening in two thousand and eight. Well all these e-mails that are coming out and Facebook I.P.O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4186">TS</a>]

01:09:53   Was in twenty twelve. So it actually Facebook being able to poach all these people may have been. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4193">TS</a>]

01:10:00   Financially related [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4200">TS</a>]

01:10:01   and additionally from the pandal Daily article that put the show notes the combined work force of just these eleven [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4201">TS</a>]

01:10:07   companies I'll read in real quick the second totaled over seven hundred seventy five thousand people in two thousand [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4207">TS</a>]

01:10:12   and eight. Those companies are Apple Comcast doubleclick Genet Genentech I.B.M. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4212">TS</a>]

01:10:19   Illuminati excuse me illuminate Intel Intuit Microsoft ugly V W P P and Google. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4219">TS</a>]

01:10:26   So that was nearly a million people in two thousand [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4226">TS</a>]

01:10:30   and eight that were all at least in some capacity being shrouded beneath this do not poached agreement thing that's off [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4230">TS</a>]

01:10:39   people. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4239">TS</a>]

01:10:41   Yeah I mean there's nothing about this that's that's good [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4241">TS</a>]

01:10:45   or encouraging about these companies at all it's likely Johns I just it's kind of a growth story it's just it's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4245">TS</a>]

01:10:55   it's just it's just kind of sad [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4255">TS</a>]

01:10:57   and it shows a lot of arrogance on all sides that like this is I mean obviously this is illegal. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4257">TS</a>]

01:11:02   All this collusion is obviously a problem [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4262">TS</a>]

01:11:05   and I'm I'm very surprised that any of these companies were stupid enough to do it especially by email for God's sake. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4265">TS</a>]

01:11:14   Yet To that end I was just going to read this. So this is a quote from an e-mail from Eric Schmidt C.E.O. Of Google. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4274">TS</a>]

01:11:21   Quote I would prefer that omit do it virtually since I don't want to create a paper trail over which we can be sued [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4281">TS</a>]

01:11:26   later. Question mark. Not sure about this two periods. Thanks Eric of course is a two period guy. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4286">TS</a>]

01:11:34   He means a literal paper trail I guess but I mean do you not realize as the C.E.O. Of Google. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4294">TS</a>]

01:11:41   It is delicious delicious irony that this president doesn't care about anyone else. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4301">TS</a>]

01:11:47   I don't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4307">TS</a>]

01:11:48   and this is the same guy who was like oh privacy doesn't really matter it's not a thing nobody will really have privacy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4308">TS</a>]

01:11:53   anymore. God so ridiculously arrogant. Yeah I like the whole fact that they are in the thing I was talking. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4313">TS</a>]

01:12:00   Where the trying to talk about this Steve give the OK Can we hire these people and it looks like those can be OK [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4320">TS</a>]

01:12:05   but in Steve Jobs and the rack one of his tours emails I prefer you know highs people I also want to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4325">TS</a>]

01:12:09   or we can't we can't do it then like that's all happening over email too like it's almost as if not the ignorance of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4329">TS</a>]

01:12:15   the was a defense but if you read this you know do you guys not know that what you're doing is both illegal [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4335">TS</a>]

01:12:21   and immoral like wouldn't you. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4341">TS</a>]

01:12:23   Back Like if you going to rob a bank don't email your fellow bank robbers back [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4343">TS</a>]

01:12:26   and forth about it for the months leading up to it like that then seem like a good idea like so we're going to a bank [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4346">TS</a>]

01:12:30   right OK I'll send you an email as a new tech start like you know like I said it's just they're so casual about it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4350">TS</a>]

01:12:38   and they like they communicate to each other you mail so casually about is like it's almost like they must not know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4358">TS</a>]

01:12:44   it's illegal because if you did know. No email. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4364">TS</a>]

01:12:47   It's just so incredibly incriminating isn't like they were secretly taped there anything they're e-mailing each other [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4367">TS</a>]

01:12:52   about it and they haven't they didn't delete the emails like it's just mind boggling and it really is ridiculous. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4372">TS</a>]

01:12:59   The more of the story is don't work for any of these. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4379">TS</a>]

01:13:03   As you point out this was in two thousand and eight [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4383">TS</a>]

01:13:05   and I imagine that even this collusion was in effect once the big falling out between Apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4385">TS</a>]

01:13:10   and Google like you know post i Phone like those agreements were off like last one Steve Jobs is saying to everybody [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4390">TS</a>]

01:13:16   you know we're going to bury Google and they betrayed us they backstab those or whatever I imagine he also said [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4396">TS</a>]

01:13:22   and forget it we're approaching other people like you know delay your T. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4402">TS</a>]

01:13:25   Broke the law and if there's a paper trail in electronic form you can get screwed for it anyway. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4405">TS</a>]

01:13:30   It's kind of a shame that like Tim Cook is left holding the bag in this type of deal like whether he knew anything knew [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4410">TS</a>]

01:13:36   about it was part of it you know then maybe it's fitting but if he didn't know about it and or wasn't a part of it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4416">TS</a>]

01:13:42   or disapproved of it now he's the guy holding the bag on this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4422">TS</a>]

01:13:45   and so whatever I mean I'm assuming will be a risk because it's always a risk lap of these big rich companies [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4425">TS</a>]

01:13:50   but it's a shame. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4430">TS</a>]

01:13:52   Yeah I don't know I'm guessing it says I think I read somewhere that apparently a lot of the companies involved is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4432">TS</a>]

01:13:58   already settled. I'm really surprised that Apple didn't like the it seems like that with a pragmatic approach here. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4438">TS</a>]

01:14:05   Just settle this just take whatever it costs settle it quickly and quietly as well as weak as you can at least [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4445">TS</a>]

01:14:11   and just get it get it past you because you had this is obviously like is obviously a thing of the past for most of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4451">TS</a>]

01:14:16   these companies because of the relationships that have changed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4456">TS</a>]

01:14:20   and especially as I really can't see Tim Cook wanting to be a part of this because he's he's too smart for that I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4460">TS</a>]

01:14:27   the whole thing just grows the revenue Apple generated while we were discussing this would be enough to pay for the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4467">TS</a>]

01:14:33   settlement. So they're all set. Anything else. And we good. When I have a short one this week. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4473">TS</a>]

01:14:42   All right well thanks a lot two or three sponsors this week to check out Pixelmator and Warby Parker [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4482">TS</a>]

01:14:48   and we will see you next week or so and you are sitting on the learn from my sister that skill list [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4488">TS</a>]

01:15:24   and the team are actually what we should talk about is to be able to see theories you have that that should be pretty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4524">TS</a>]

01:15:57   quick for now. OK so I have an insane. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4557">TS</a>]

01:16:00   Theory so if you go to the Moscone schedule let me find a link and stall for a moment while I'm doing that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4560">TS</a>]

01:16:08   There's a meeting in June that's the American Association I believe. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4568">TS</a>]

01:16:13   And that goes on from the Friday that everyone expects it talking seventh or tenth [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4573">TS</a>]

01:16:19   or fourteenth through thirteen through seventeen. I first the previous week June second or sixth. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4579">TS</a>]

01:16:26   OK that that corroborates my theory is your thing that has the Friday included. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4586">TS</a>]

01:16:30   Does that involve Moscone West because there's three Mosconi Now that's the thing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4590">TS</a>]

01:16:35   So here you've hit the nail on the head so I see that I actually saw a few weeks ago that the American died of diabetes. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4595">TS</a>]

01:16:41   I'm sorry. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4601">TS</a>]

01:16:42   The American Diabetes Association seventy fourth lines of accessions that is in Moscone north south [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4602">TS</a>]

01:16:48   and west from the thirteenth of June which is that Friday through the seventeenth which is the following Tuesday. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4608">TS</a>]

01:16:55   So there you go at the previous week. So. Well but no it's not quite so simple because what I know the D.C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4615">TS</a>]

01:17:02   Ends on Fridays and it ends around midday [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4622">TS</a>]

01:17:05   and so let's assume for the sake of conversation for just a moment that maybe they could flip it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4625">TS</a>]

01:17:12   or perhaps maybe the rest of the time the eighty eight needs west [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4632">TS</a>]

01:17:17   but they made some agreement with Mosconi where they don't need it Friday. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4637">TS</a>]

01:17:21   So I go digging around to look at what is the American Diabetes Association. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4641">TS</a>]

01:17:27   Seventy fourth scientific sessions and I'm trying to figure out OK is there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4647">TS</a>]

01:17:32   or is there not anything going on in Moscone West [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4652">TS</a>]

01:17:35   and I'm looking at looking at all sorts of things I'm looking at vendor maps [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4655">TS</a>]

01:17:40   and I don't think that was West I'm looking at schedules [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4660">TS</a>]

01:17:42   and they say well on Saturday there's absolutely something in Moscone west [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4662">TS</a>]

01:17:45   but there's no real talk about Friday in Moscone west until I find what I just put in the chat special opportunities. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4665">TS</a>]

01:17:54   World Cup viewing room since Scientific Sessions will once again fall over fee for World Cup matches will set aside. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4674">TS</a>]

01:18:00   Miriam us in Moscone West so that attendees can catch up on the latest action without leaving a conference center [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4680">TS</a>]

01:18:05   and I'd seen a convention center. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4685">TS</a>]

01:18:07   So with that in mind one's World Cup start and I didn't verify this myself [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4687">TS</a>]

01:18:12   but I was talking with underscore earlier earlier today and he said it starts on like the twelfth [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4692">TS</a>]

01:18:16   or something like that or that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4696">TS</a>]

01:18:17   or the eleventh I forget exactly what day it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things with the point as it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4697">TS</a>]

01:18:21   starts before the thirteenth. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4701">TS</a>]

01:18:24   So if you put all of this together that says to me that Moscone West is going to be clogged up on Thursday on Friday [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4704">TS</a>]

01:18:32   the thirteenth of June so that eliminates the week of nine through thirteen the following week it is still covered by [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4712">TS</a>]

01:18:43   the same eighty eight meetings so we've got nine through twenty all booked up which leaves twenty three thru twenty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4723">TS</a>]

01:18:50   seven which is already been booked for Google I O. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4730">TS</a>]

01:18:54   Which means by process of elimination it's the second through the six or eight in August. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4734">TS</a>]

01:18:59   If it's in June and if it's still it must go on and I think that's I mean that's a problem. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4739">TS</a>]

01:19:03   I think being at my schooling is a pretty safe bet. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4743">TS</a>]

01:19:06   Just because there's you know where else they gonna do it there's talk of this before so that it's almost certainly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4746">TS</a>]

01:19:10   still at Moscone. It doesn't necessarily have to be in June. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4750">TS</a>]

01:19:15   It's just very likely it will be because that's how they've done it and it works out in a number of ways. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4755">TS</a>]

01:19:20   I suspect it'll just be the first week June second through sex [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4760">TS</a>]

01:19:24   but it doesn't really matter where the dates are because then we all assume they're going to preannounce the dates in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4764">TS</a>]

01:19:27   the tickets and everything but he's not going to it's not going to be a surprise anymore. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4767">TS</a>]

01:19:31   It's like it's the only question now is like is there going to be like last year is there going to be a lottery [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4771">TS</a>]

01:19:36   or whatever but I really doubt they would ever go back to the thing where it's like oh here it is [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4776">TS</a>]

01:19:40   and go by like it's always going to be pre-announced So we just sit around and wait for them to preannounce [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4780">TS</a>]

01:19:44   and say tickets will be on sale at X. Date and hears them are going to use and then we just all deal with it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4784">TS</a>]

01:19:50   Yeah [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4790">TS</a>]

01:19:50   but it's nice to try to figure out what what the schedule is for example you know I was thinking of flying Arun out to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4790">TS</a>]

01:19:57   meet me late in the week and then we would spend some the following week. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4797">TS</a>]

01:20:00   Go out there together but yeah I looked at both the plane tickets and hotel fare a little while ago [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4800">TS</a>]

01:20:05   and the prices look crazy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4805">TS</a>]

01:20:06   and bad so well the prices are terrible the one hundred thirteenth they're almost livable the second to the six AS Per [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4806">TS</a>]

01:20:13   underscore only or today. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4813">TS</a>]

01:20:15   Yeah I saw the park fifty five hotel is almost exactly the same price now as it was last year. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4815">TS</a>]

01:20:22   Downs as I look at the last of us I was looking it was like a hundred bucks more per night. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4822">TS</a>]

01:20:27   It was like it was like in the high hundreds like one hundred ninety two hundred ish like in that all that's really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4827">TS</a>]

01:20:32   good. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4832">TS</a>]

01:20:33   Now that's yeah we will see effort for the second to say it was substantially I was talking underscore over to him [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4833">TS</a>]

01:20:37   and he and he suggested to let you know maybe we'll do a lottery this year [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4837">TS</a>]

01:20:42   and I think honestly you know the more I think about the more I think that's really the only good option at this point [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4842">TS</a>]

01:20:47   like anything that involves everyone rushing at this particular time. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4847">TS</a>]

01:20:52   That's going to always be problematic you know if you want think if it was like are going to open at this time. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4852">TS</a>]

01:20:59   First come first serve. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4859">TS</a>]

01:21:00   Go [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4860">TS</a>]

01:21:01   and it sells out in ten minutes so everyone has ten minutes like you can do YOU CAN A lot of people can get in ten minutes [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4861">TS</a>]

01:21:06   but if it sells out in like forty five seconds again like it did last year before being short of breaking [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4866">TS</a>]

01:21:11   and failing that's that's tough. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4871">TS</a>]

01:21:15   That way you know it's what you want is for all the people who really really want to get in to be able to get tickets. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4875">TS</a>]

01:21:22   But there's not enough tickets for that anymore. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4882">TS</a>]

01:21:24   Like there's there's too many people who qualify for that who people who really want to go. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4884">TS</a>]

01:21:29   There's just too many of those. And any system you make is only going to have a random subset of them effectively. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4889">TS</a>]

01:21:37   So you might as well do it in a way that feels fair [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4897">TS</a>]

01:21:40   and make it a lottery it's not truly random anyway I like the idea of people being really rewarded for their enthusiasm [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4900">TS</a>]

01:21:47   for buying tickets available could just make a web application doesn't die. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4907">TS</a>]

01:21:51   Then you could in theory give people tickets on a first come first serve basis [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4911">TS</a>]

01:21:56   and then like the people who are sitting there hovering over the button as a second stick. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4916">TS</a>]

01:22:00   On there you know synchronized clock they will be rewarded for their crazy enthusiasm for getting tickets [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4920">TS</a>]

01:22:06   and they will be more likely to get tickets [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4926">TS</a>]

01:22:08   and the people who stroll in thirty seconds later I know I know it's a small window and it's crazy [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4928">TS</a>]

01:22:13   but if you could eliminate the error a lottery is truly random like the people who just like I guess I'll put my hat in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4933">TS</a>]

01:22:18   the ring and they do that like three days after they were announced. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4938">TS</a>]

01:22:21   They have an equal chance with you who is like their you know the second [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4941">TS</a>]

01:22:25   and I don't think I like seeing some weight given to people who are more enthusiastic about going [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4945">TS</a>]

01:22:31   and there's no way to express that enthusiasm if there's a four day window for you to put your hat in the ring for a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4951">TS</a>]

01:22:35   lottery for a ticket. I completely agree. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4955">TS</a>]

01:22:38   So I would prefer to think it is merely make a web application to work correctly [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4958">TS</a>]

01:22:42   and have it so out in ten seconds is fine with me ten seconds is more than enough for him to like all the people who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4962">TS</a>]

01:22:47   are there you know trying to get him that ten second window. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4967">TS</a>]

01:22:52   Maybe it's all that in five seconds and three seconds like if they had to get an application that wouldn't break. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4972">TS</a>]

01:22:57   You could get you could reserve people spot and then a time [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4977">TS</a>]

01:23:00   and so your spot of reserve you have five minutes a checkout and then the application won't fail [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4980">TS</a>]

01:23:04   and you've got you know like there we have somebody has technology perhaps not Apple. Yes the problem here. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4984">TS</a>]

01:23:11   You're asking Apple for like a really complicated web app to be super reliable and fair and you have it right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4991">TS</a>]

01:23:18   Right the whole thing and like it doesn't seem like how many people could there possibly be. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/4998">TS</a>]

01:23:23   Let's say there's a million people who want to go to a really see I think that's way too big. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5003">TS</a>]

01:23:27   I feel like with with Apple's budget it is possible to set up a bunch of servers that serve like text only no images [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5007">TS</a>]

01:23:33   just like a button and like click this button to reserve your ticket [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5013">TS</a>]

01:23:36   when it's like I feel like I could write this thing for a million people or be ugly but it would work. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5016">TS</a>]

01:23:42   Give me give me Apple's budget and a couple months to do this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5022">TS</a>]

01:23:45   and I can make a fair system for reserving your spot for to be every see that me like gives you a token [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5025">TS</a>]

01:23:53   and it sends you off to the real checkout process during which we checked in you know like it's not rocket science [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5033">TS</a>]

01:23:58   doesn't have to be a big fancy. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5038">TS</a>]

01:24:00   You know the store checkout process or whatever that's not used to this kind of onslaught [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5040">TS</a>]

01:24:04   but well I mean I think I think the reason why it broke so badly last year is that Apple really didn't seem to do it to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5044">TS</a>]

01:24:11   do a lot of custom work for it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5051">TS</a>]

01:24:12   They've basically is trying to wedge it into their regular checkout process [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5052">TS</a>]

01:24:16   and it just was not designed will work whatever system whatever backend stuff was involved with those tickets in [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5056">TS</a>]

01:24:23   particular just they didn't put enough effort into it you know. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5063">TS</a>]

01:24:26   In short they half assed it right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5066">TS</a>]

01:24:28   and Apple half ass in the web service especially one meant for developers is nothing new at all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5068">TS</a>]

01:24:34   and there's no signs ever from Apple. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5074">TS</a>]

01:24:38   There's no sign that their priorities have changed in such a way that making a really amazing web service for [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5078">TS</a>]

01:24:45   developers a sort of the really important thing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5085">TS</a>]

01:24:47   So I don't see that happening at all [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5087">TS</a>]

01:24:49   and that's why I think if you assume that it's going to be no better than last year if there's a big rush point like if [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5089">TS</a>]

01:24:56   they say Our show up at this time first come first serve. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5096">TS</a>]

01:24:58   Just like last year I don't have any reason to believe that reasonably speaking it will be any better than last year [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5098">TS</a>]

01:25:06   and last year was pretty bad. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5106">TS</a>]

01:25:08   Well last year was terrible in a while [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5108">TS</a>]

01:25:10   and I say that because I'm still grumbling about the fact that I had major ticket acquisition issues [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5110">TS</a>]

01:25:16   but it was really rough. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5116">TS</a>]

01:25:17   But that being said how come we don't have the same problems with the last one or two i Phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5117">TS</a>]

01:25:25   and i Pad pre-orders like if I recall correctly the five S. Did not have an online pre-order is that right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5125">TS</a>]

01:25:31   Way more capacity though like the I don't think you have the the emphasizes rush because people know that there's not [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5131">TS</a>]

01:25:38   five thousand i Pads available. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5138">TS</a>]

01:25:39   There's five thousand i Pads value [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5139">TS</a>]

01:25:41   and people knew there were five thousand i Pads available who would be the same disaster [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5141">TS</a>]

01:25:44   but you know the millions of i Pad felt sure [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5144">TS</a>]

01:25:47   and it spread out over you know like even people like waiting up till three am or whatever and getting through [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5147">TS</a>]

01:25:52   or maybe your shipment date moves out if you're in the first five minutes or two [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5152">TS</a>]

01:25:55   but it's not like this is so much more capacity to such a limited number of tickets for this. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5155">TS</a>]

01:26:00   Right but what I'm saying is let's say there's fifty thousand people that really want to go in. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5160">TS</a>]

01:26:04   Obviously I made that up at a thin air. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5164">TS</a>]

01:26:06   Don't you think there'd be a lot more than fifty thousand people trying to pre-order a new i Phone [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5166">TS</a>]

01:26:10   or i Pad on the moment at three am that it's available. Well but they have to make that work really well. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5170">TS</a>]

01:26:16   They have I mean John I think you're right that yes the demand probably is a little more spread out in that it isn't as [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5176">TS</a>]

01:26:23   urgent that everyone who wants one get there at second zero. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5183">TS</a>]

01:26:27   But I also think that Apple puts a lot more resources into that and into testing [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5187">TS</a>]

01:26:34   and deploying that because it's way more important to them think about how much of their revenue is directly from that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5194">TS</a>]

01:26:41   process on those couple days or even that night. But there's a lot of money that's a huge very important thing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5201">TS</a>]

01:26:47   If it fails also it's a major P.R. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5207">TS</a>]

01:26:50   Blunder that they will be raked over the coals for all the tech sites [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5210">TS</a>]

01:26:53   and everything saying how they're doing because they can't keep a store up for their most important product Meanwhile [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5213">TS</a>]

01:26:58   if developers get you know a couple of their pages and everyone everyone's carts timeout [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5218">TS</a>]

01:27:03   and there's always errors buying data about the conference. The Wall Street Journal doesn't give a crap about that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5223">TS</a>]

01:27:09   No [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5229">TS</a>]

01:27:09   but I guess what I'm saying is if they clearly have conquered this for i Devices Couldn't you use some of the same either [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5229">TS</a>]

01:27:19   servers or tech or something for W W D C [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5239">TS</a>]

01:27:23   and also consider that from everything we can tell from the outside it seems like it was a pretty labor intensive [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5243">TS</a>]

01:27:31   aftermath last year when everyone got half cooked on their orders and then people from Apple had to either email [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5251">TS</a>]

01:27:37   or call everyone in fact I thought they called a lot of people saying hey we see you got halfway through this order do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5257">TS</a>]

01:27:44   you want to finish it and that is not something I would assume they expected to need to do [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5264">TS</a>]

01:27:50   and if that's a ton of people you know it's a few thousand I mean a few thousand if it's only two interns doing all the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5270">TS</a>]

01:27:56   calls for the sake of conversation. That takes some time. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5276">TS</a>]

01:28:00   And I remember hearing about these calls happening I would say at least a couple weeks if not a month after the tickets [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5280">TS</a>]

01:28:05   went on sale. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5285">TS</a>]

01:28:05   Well all of this argues in favor of Apple doing the lottery because if you think about it from Apple's perspective a [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5285">TS</a>]

01:28:10   lottery is the best for them it makes them not be embarrassed about having a crappy thing that falls down [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5290">TS</a>]

01:28:16   and avoids all those work for years ascribe K.C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5296">TS</a>]

01:28:19   and The third advantage that it gives Apple is that it lets them cherry pick like they can you know. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5299">TS</a>]

01:28:25   Oh yeah it's a random quote unquote but behind the scenes Apple has the ability to go in that one and that one [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5305">TS</a>]

01:28:32   and that one and now an OK And then you do the rest of them random and they do that anyway. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5312">TS</a>]

01:28:36   Oh they were they were doing that with the people who had problems like a lottery is by far the best from Apple's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5316">TS</a>]

01:28:42   perspective because it solves all the Apple's problem to does not solve all of the customer's problems [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5322">TS</a>]

01:28:46   and I don't think it's more fair than the system I described [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5326">TS</a>]

01:28:49   but if you just go about like what's best for Apple a lottery is it so if you if you want to take the easy bet it's [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5329">TS</a>]

01:28:55   like Will Apple do the thing that's best for Apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5335">TS</a>]

01:28:57   or will they care about how developers feel so it's you know we'll say well with Cabot that the thing is best for Apple [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5337">TS</a>]

01:29:05   require them to do a little bit more work on the server side which makes a lot less likely. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5345">TS</a>]

01:29:10   Well the thing the thing the bus route doesn't require them to do any more server is really easy to get a little sign [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5350">TS</a>]

01:29:16   up form and is connect the name to collect the names and send out the emails [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5356">TS</a>]

01:29:19   and you know say oh congratulations you've been selected [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5359">TS</a>]

01:29:21   and check out at your leisure with a special token code that you know like it's so much easier for them. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5361">TS</a>]

01:29:26   Oh didn't they do that the last iphone pre-order I did which I did the five S. In line but I believe for the four S. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5366">TS</a>]

01:29:34   or Maybe it was the it doesn't matter for something I got a kind of sort of token it basically said OK we see that you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5374">TS</a>]

01:29:42   want an i Phone and we know that we can't handle it right now [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5382">TS</a>]

01:29:47   but we have reserved one for you we will email you a link and let you finish the process later [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5387">TS</a>]

01:29:52   when we think we're good and ready. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5392">TS</a>]

01:29:54   Do you remember that Marco I don't although underscore said earlier that he thinks that how tech talk. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5394">TS</a>]

01:30:00   Were were done that tech talks were done by a lottery where you just like you enter your email [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5400">TS</a>]

01:30:05   and then it is there I will let you know if you can come back out to have a system for us. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5405">TS</a>]

01:30:10   Even if the system is simply will take provisional orders [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5410">TS</a>]

01:30:12   and will just like cancel the ones that we don't pick somebody within the bounds of like it is there's no time you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5412">TS</a>]

01:30:18   it's like for ever and get your tickets in over the course of the next week no rush. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5418">TS</a>]

01:30:22   Doesn't matter when you do it like they have no problem supporting this and using whatever system they decide to use [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5422">TS</a>]

01:30:27   and it definitely makes their life easier [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5427">TS</a>]

01:30:29   and I think the extra control of them being able to cherry pick like the people who they want [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5429">TS</a>]

01:30:34   and who they don't want they're just like they must be like yeah that's great we're going to do that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5434">TS</a>]

01:30:39   and so I fear that's what will happen this year [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5439">TS</a>]

01:30:42   but I mean like like Marcos the realistic alternative is a repeat of last year because none of us believe that they can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5442">TS</a>]

01:30:48   make a server [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5448">TS</a>]

01:30:49   or have the guts to make like a simple text only no javascript really tiny one button click this thing to reserve your [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5449">TS</a>]

01:30:57   ticket you know like they would never do that because it wouldn't be the Apple way it would look all pretty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5457">TS</a>]

01:31:02   and like have check shiny about Clinton even the problem. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5462">TS</a>]

01:31:06   I mean that the way you can solve it with C.D.'s I mean that's that's not a problem can you apparently Apple can't [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5466">TS</a>]

01:31:11   figure that out I have to have the pages during my check out last year had no C.S.S. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5471">TS</a>]

01:31:16   and I just blindly plowed all I'm going to help. That's exactly right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5476">TS</a>]

01:31:20   I just I can't you know as a developer of systems that handle these kind of traffic in the past I can't imagine like [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5480">TS</a>]

01:31:27   the kind of like weird ancient limited infrastructure they must put in this task last year that caused this problem. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5487">TS</a>]

01:31:34   Unless there were like millions of people hitting at once. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5494">TS</a>]

01:31:37   But there weren't because I mean the total demand has to be under a million half the total demand. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5497">TS</a>]

01:31:42   You know they have five thousand tickets they saw very quickly how many people do you think are actually trying to get [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5502">TS</a>]

01:31:47   those tickets. Ten thousand twenty thousand fifty thousand maybe at most like how many could there really be. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5507">TS</a>]

01:31:54   How long ago was the first sellout Wasn't that like twenty and twenty eleventh's. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5514">TS</a>]

01:32:00   Thing like that I think it was earlier I think was like No nine but it was it was like a month [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5520">TS</a>]

01:32:04   and a half after the ticket months right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5524">TS</a>]

01:32:06   So you look at you know the for I think it's twenty twelve was the first one that happened really fast [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5526">TS</a>]

01:32:11   and that was like ten minutes something like that yeah. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5531">TS</a>]

01:32:14   And so I can't imagine we went from twenty nine let's call it where it took a month to sell out to twenty ten where it [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5534">TS</a>]

01:32:22   was quick. Can I refuse to call it twenty nine. Yeah. Well while this is accidental you know that's the way this. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5542">TS</a>]

01:32:30   Anyway the point is in two thousand nine hundred twenty twelve it was really uncomfortable and quick [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5550">TS</a>]

01:32:37   and then twenty thirteen it was just unbearably quick I can't imagine that means there's more than fifty thousand [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5557">TS</a>]

01:32:43   people and even now I feel like it's pretty aggressive that are there looking for tickets. What do you think this year. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5563">TS</a>]

01:32:51   Knowing what happened last year knowing what people did last year will you be going if you don't get a ticket. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5571">TS</a>]

01:32:58   I probably won't because like the videos are are so much you know the real time video that we didn't know were coming [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5578">TS</a>]

01:33:05   last year that Apple surprised us with assuming they're going to do them again. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5585">TS</a>]

01:33:09   That's probably enough for me to like I don't and I'm not sure if I need to be there for a minute. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5589">TS</a>]

01:33:13   I guess it depends on what gets announced [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5593">TS</a>]

01:33:15   and like if there are things that I would want to talk to people you know sort of behind the scenes about our in person [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5595">TS</a>]

01:33:21   or whatever that that that experience. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5601">TS</a>]

01:33:24   I can't get with the videos but depending on what the nouns that experience may be less important. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5604">TS</a>]

01:33:29   Yeah I mean it's not always about the sessions like like if I don't get a ticket I think what I'll be most disappointed [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5609">TS</a>]

01:33:36   about missing whether I'm there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5616">TS</a>]

01:33:38   or not is the socialization that happens like in the common areas in Moscone during the day between the sessions I see [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5618">TS</a>]

01:33:44   so many people there I talk to so many people. I've made deals there like that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5624">TS</a>]

01:33:50   That's a very important thing to me is like that community engagement like had being around people of you know of our [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5630">TS</a>]

01:33:57   industry and media. New people like being in the building to be there for all this. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5637">TS</a>]

01:34:03   If you just go and go for the social elements and you know drinking at the bar his friends afterwards [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5643">TS</a>]

01:34:08   and stuff you get some of that [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5648">TS</a>]

01:34:10   but it's not nearly as much rain in that's the thing is that I feel like I want to go for at least maybe two thirds of [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5650">TS</a>]

01:34:19   the week even if I did never take it but oh my goodness. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5659">TS</a>]

01:34:23   Telling them work I like you know if I told work hey all funded from a financial perspective [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5663">TS</a>]

01:34:28   but can I I'm kind of not work for a week and not have thinking isn't that going to be a tough sell. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5668">TS</a>]

01:34:34   I don't know if I mean for me like I'm trying to just justify a large expense of the trip [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5674">TS</a>]

01:34:40   and everything as part of work on you know a ten radio so that's like it's like a business trip I have to take off from [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5680">TS</a>]

01:34:45   work from my real job that just you know it's vacation from that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5685">TS</a>]

01:34:49   But like am I going to spend a week of vacation [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5689">TS</a>]

01:34:52   and also spend all this money to do this thing that has to be in service of some things I need to like I can just be [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5692">TS</a>]

01:34:57   like oh I just want to hang out my friends like yeah if I was it if money was no object [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5697">TS</a>]

01:35:02   and I didn't have any other responsibilities just go there to have a fun week. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5702">TS</a>]

01:35:05   Right but even if even if I didn't have to take it which some people did last year [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5705">TS</a>]

01:35:08   but I don't I don't think I have that luxury around and I'm fifty fifty. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5708">TS</a>]

01:35:14   Knowing me I'll cave and go but that's a tough sell but it sounds like Mark or you'd almost certainly do it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5714">TS</a>]

01:35:22   I would definitely go but I I would really be I would probably end up being really bored during most of the days. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5722">TS</a>]

01:35:31   So supposing it is last year they release the videos what was it like like the evening early the next morning there [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5731">TS</a>]

01:35:36   were the videos in the previous day it was it was like it wasn't real time was it was pretty soon afterwards I think [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5736">TS</a>]

01:35:42   you're right I think it was within twelve hours. Yes I'm like that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5742">TS</a>]

01:35:46   So you could like you know you could on any given day you can watch at the previous day's videos. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5746">TS</a>]

01:35:51   So yeah maybe I could do that but where am I going to do that. In what context. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5751">TS</a>]

01:35:56   My going to sit around in another teller Malone watching videos all day like that's going to suck. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5756">TS</a>]

01:36:00   On crummy wife I write that well you go meet people for lunch and may be able for dinner but you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5760">TS</a>]

01:36:05   but yeah there is a time to be sitting in a hotel room or in some coffee shop [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5765">TS</a>]

01:36:08   or something trying to stream that is right [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5768">TS</a>]

01:36:11   and that sounds that sounds like a pretty miserable week honestly so you know if that's the alternative that's pretty [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5771">TS</a>]

01:36:17   bad if people if there's a lot of people who are in this situation who are all going in the you know then maybe you can [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5777">TS</a>]

01:36:24   try to organize something a little more reasonable than that for the day times [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5784">TS</a>]

01:36:28   and you know for the night doesn't matter the Moscone after after four P.M. Anyway but what do you do from nine A.M. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5788">TS</a>]

01:36:35   To four P.M. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5795">TS</a>]

01:36:36   That's that's a big question and and if you want to and if you don't watch the videos [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5796">TS</a>]

01:36:42   when do you watch the videos like that like if you're one of the great things about being there is that your job during [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5802">TS</a>]

01:36:49   that week is to go to the sessions so you will go to the sessions maybe not all of them about every slot [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5809">TS</a>]

01:36:54   but you'll go to the sessions you have nothing else to do that we do that. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5814">TS</a>]

01:36:58   Whereas if you wait until after that week if you're say Oh well I want to sessions [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5818">TS</a>]

01:37:03   when I get home we know a lot what sessions later in the year. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5823">TS</a>]

01:37:06   You'll just probably never do it because there's never a time where it's your job to watch that session right there was [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5826">TS</a>]

01:37:12   old D.C. Last year which from everything I've heard was actually very very good. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5832">TS</a>]

01:37:18   So you could presumably go to that in spend your time there during the day [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5838">TS</a>]

01:37:22   but I agree in the other thing to consider is that despite San Francisco being this hotbed of Internet everything the [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5842">TS</a>]

01:37:29   hotel wife in any hotel lobby ever stayed in is just crummy as every other hotel anywhere in the country. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5849">TS</a>]

01:37:35   Oh it's miserable. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5855">TS</a>]

01:37:36   Right so what do you do to get the videos even if you could get them I mean you'd have to go to a market you would you [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5856">TS</a>]

01:37:42   go to Starbucks to get the videos also I would probably just ask like MacWorld [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5862">TS</a>]

01:37:47   or an office that's nearby that we're friends with I would preach ask them if I go there often use their [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5867">TS</a>]

01:37:52   or their internet connection at least and also that you know [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5872">TS</a>]

01:37:56   and that might be the answer right the answer might be you know small groups of people. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5876">TS</a>]

01:38:00   All who know someone in San Francisco get together in various people's offices or apartments and have little parties [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5880">TS</a>]

01:38:05   or gatherings or you know wife I download sessions there I mean it's. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5885">TS</a>]

01:38:09   But the problem is like that's not really that's not really like a big community event. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5889">TS</a>]

01:38:14   It breaks up into smaller communities [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5894">TS</a>]

01:38:16   and it also makes it much harder for people who don't know anyone yet if you know who are new to the community who [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5896">TS</a>]

01:38:23   don't know anyone who was here we don't know anyone who is big companies it makes it much harder of a sell for them to [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5903">TS</a>]

01:38:28   do it to be any part of us really and that's that's a shame. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5908">TS</a>]

01:38:32   And so you know it's you know it's one thing like you know we can go out there and. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5912">TS</a>]

01:38:36   Yeah Jason cell already said we can use their office so we know we know we went out there we have somewhere to go. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5916">TS</a>]

01:38:43   But that's not going to apply to everyone and that's right. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5923">TS</a>]

01:38:46   It just it just it just it's unfortunate situation that it has to be limited like this [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5926">TS</a>]

01:38:50   but you know unfortunately it does like there are there are no bigger venues there are no you know there's even if they [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5930">TS</a>]

01:38:59   can find a bigger venue like you really want to convert twenty thousand people [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5939">TS</a>]

01:39:02   and you know we've been to the South by Southwest is is giant and it's terrible. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5942">TS</a>]

01:39:07   No it isn't spread out over all of Austin I've never been [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5947">TS</a>]

01:39:09   but my understanding was it's like a good zillion different locations all around Austin is that correct. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5949">TS</a>]

01:39:15   Yeah pretty much spreading out to like in that now you have to take buses across the river to go to some weird hotel [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5955">TS</a>]

01:39:22   for session one of the like. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5962">TS</a>]

01:39:24   It's so it's so weird I mean like that's the problem is that this it's like forms like discussion forums have certain [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5964">TS</a>]

01:39:32   sizes above which they just do not scale very well [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5972">TS</a>]

01:39:35   and once a community gets beyond that size there's kind of no turning back there's no rescuing it. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5975">TS</a>]

01:39:42   It just gets out of control [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5982">TS</a>]

01:39:45   and you know its conferences are a similar thing is there are certain natural sizes after which it's just really really [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5985">TS</a>]

01:39:50   hard to make it good and to make it work. And and I think they definitely have reached that point with D.C. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5990">TS</a>]

01:39:58   With you know we see. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/5998">TS</a>]

01:40:00   How it's very hard to get into a lot of the sessions because there's lines out the door you can't even get into so many [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/6000">TS</a>]

01:40:06   of the like it's so it's already bursting at the seems like they can't really make it bigger [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/6006">TS</a>]

01:40:13   and have it be the same kind of thing. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/6013">TS</a>]

01:40:16   And there's lots of you know they can try to split it up [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/6016">TS</a>]

01:40:17   and various ways with that kind of ruins other aspects of it as well including some of that some of the community [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/6017">TS</a>]

01:40:23   aspect. It's one of those things that there's just no good option here you have to pick between bad options. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/6023">TS</a>]

01:40:31   And on that partial. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/6031">TS</a>]

01:40:34   Speaking of picking between bad options what about those three cars it's got there so bad there is so bad. [<a href="https://overcast.fm/+CdSFJhek/6034">TS</a>]
