Tessellation debuted in Metal in 2016, so yeah, relatively shortly after the first release on iOS (2014) and macOS (2015).

I think you and your GP are right on. I edited a short-lived podcast and regularly spent 1.5 hours producing and editing each 25 minute show. Even if you're using good equipment and have a solid connection, producing a tight podcast necessarily takes more effort than is obvious to the listener. That's kind of the point.

"Looks like serif"? Did you mean to say it looks like a proportional-width font?

It feels more like one side of an IM conversation than an essay, what with the missing periods and stilted

"This tries to find visually distinct colors that humans will be able to distinguish."

Which are also vomitously ugly. There's a reason graphic designers don't rely purely on algorithms to select their palettes for them.

I felt a sharp pang of nostalgia seeing the cover of "Write Your Own Adventure Programs". That book, and similar titles, were already old by the time I came across ragged copies of them in my public library, but I spent countless hours of my middle school years painstakingly typing out their listings and seeing the results on my second-hand 386's amber monochrome CRT.

Neither is more correct than the other (in this context) without further qualification. He means linear pixel density, you mean area pixel density or total number of pixels (the latter of which isn't a technically valid definition of resolution).

The reason for the one-on-one format is that I want to get a feel for where different people are in their learning. Already, I've heard from total newbies, people with programming experience wanting to move into iOS, and people who have tried doing iOS development and found difficulty.

I totally agree that if you could vet your audience (which might be as simple as slapping a price tag on it and posting a syllabus), you could take a more homogeneous approach. I'll certainly be looking in this in the future.

For the moment, I guess I've created a wildly "unscalable" experience in order to give everyone personalized attention wherever they may be.

The response to this has been literally overwhelming, but I'm really excited to talk with everyone who has signed up.

If you're still interested, there are several slots on Tuesday and Friday.
