IIRC, Lattner's the only interviewee, and this was his second appearance.

It's a pretty fun hotel with theme rooms and a really cool cave bathroom.

> now will you fix the keyboards for realsies this time?

Hopefully with the quick turnaround more people will bring theirs in and get the failure rate numbers up closer to reality vs. the "small number" of failures they seem to think there is.

Will they be extending it now?

Texas may not have income tax, but property tax is very high, and property values are pretty high by Texas standards.

Right. Time and attention costs money, and why would Apple spend that time and attention on being jerks to 2.14% of the desktop market?

My favorite is when autoupdate is done updating, it runs a check to see if anything needs to be updated, and then it reports to me that there's nothing to update.

I recently got a 28" 4K monitor on sale for $250US, and it's almost too big to me, but I love the way fonts look under macOS's scaling. I'm farsighted, so when I wear glasses with a lower resolution, I really don't like seeing the lines between pixels. While not technically "retina", my new monitor is close enough.

Also, I do like working on a 13" laptop -- especially with workspaces. Switching the workspace is almost a complete replacement for the screen real estate of a larger monitor.

Pretty much the same here. FF has always been a battery eater, and even if only one tab is open, it's the sole app in the "Apps using significant energy".

Focus. That's why I'm here right now instead of GTD.

It's not really a solution. Screen shot; toot with your mocking comments.

I block the camera on my work laptop because the conferencing software we've been using likes to default to video.

On the magic keyboard, the whole bottom row of keys is shorter than they used to be. Not by a lot, but they're shorter. They're now the same height as the keys above.
