First episode of 2019, recorded on the day of the Macintosh 35th anniversary, this episode is all about Euan and myself: the Apple fan boys. From experiences through this long stretch of history of computing, to the usual complaining about how things could be better, to the incredibly still fresh amazement for how technology changes our life every day.

In this episode we wonder if podcasting really is the “intellectual dark web”, or if it’s just a good place for conversations (mostly because nobody can interrupt us). We also meditate on how we might have lowered the entry threshold of other tools too much, or if it’s just the natural cycle of digital tools. We reflect about amateurs vs. professionals and while we ponder on how we should do more things for love, we observe how love, competence and intent are the key to everything. We also mention Jordan Peterson, but we don’t necessarily agree with him.

Enjoy :)

This is just a test, nothing interesting to read here. Not that there’s anyone out there left reading any of this anyway. So what is the point of apologising? Well, there’s absolutely no point, it’s just that I’m testing something in the editor and I need to write something.

Some of you might say “well: couldn’t you just paste some lorem ipsum?”. But you should consider that first: none of you is out there; and second: I told you not to read this at the very beginning, so what are you even doing down here?

Well, anyway, it was good to hear from me after all this time. Thank you for your help.
