Faraway, So Micro

Apple every year at WWDC. #WWDC23

Buried in my podcast editing contract is a bullet point that reads “if you imitate a wrestler from the 80’s or 90’s at any point in your podcast, I am obligated to include a snippet of their entrance music”. I’ve never had to act on that… until today.

Happy ~2 hours to go until WWDC 2023 for fellow Apple nerds out there. Everything rumored looks interesting and fun, though I suspect the reality will be somewhat less as the rumour mill has been going overtime on AR / VR stuff. Excited to see what happens.

I hope I never get so cynical and bored with life that I can’t see a beautiful experience when it’s right in front of me. People are allowed to not enjoy a TV series like Ted Lasso, but the way some loved season 1 and hated season 3 is something I can’t connect with.

I stood next to the supervisor of the Dr. Strange show at Disneyland as he checked off items in the show in Notes on an iPad.

I asked “Even Avengers run on Notes?” He replied “You have no idea.”

Me all winter: “I’m going to spend all summer outside and never miss an opportunity to be outside and hot.”

Me on the second week of warm weather: “The basement is my home now. The sun is evil and must be avoided.”

Today for something different we’re going to mow the stupid lawn for our stupid mental health, ok? Not ruling out a walk later, but sitting in a stupid chair on the stupid deck might be a better option today. 🌞

Hey let’s go for a stupid walk for somebody’s (mine? yours?) stupid mental health ok?

Detail (macOS and iOS) looks like a fun new take on video recording and editing - built with M1 / M2 devices in mind.

I’ve taken enough words into my earballs via editing podcasts about TypeScript that you’d think I’d understand what it is. But I still don’t really get it. And I’m fine with that tbh.

I know HTML + CSS things, and I’m a expert level FrontPage ‘98 user - why move forward from perfection?

Ted Lasso finale - quick thoughts

It’s stupid walk time. Let’s go.

Top podcast hosting companies by episode share is interesting. I assume Spotify for Podcasters is so high because they folded in all the free formerly Anchor based podcasts?

I’m posting about going for a stupid walk for my stupid mental (and physical) health just to keep myself accountable, ok?

AMA

Great feedback from a client: “I think the shits are okay :)”

“Don’t throw repressed memory Emily.” “Ehhh she won’t remember this.”

Bob’s Burger is so great.

Do you have a M2 MacBook Air? Are you able to use it outside in regular sunlight while sitting in the shade?

Some interesting new block updates to Audio Hijack including a machine learning based speech denoise block.
