indefensible: john gruber

that is an avoidable behavior and also the behavior that is actually rude.

it's not, though! people will kind of glance and their phone and sometimes multiple people will kind of do that while conversing or floating in and out of conversation

I have only ever been called out on this once, and it was when I obviously thought a work meeting was boring as shit and I was reading twitter or w/e

u were tweeting "this meeting is boring as shit" and ur boss was reading ur tweet

the dude who mentioned that actually got laid off, although I like him as a coworker!

tbh an odd number of my nemeses were on the list of people laid off at the beginning of this year

good job taking them out

There is also one scenario where Apple Watch is far superior to my regular watches when checking the time: in the dark. Also, though it sounds trivial, I enjoy the perfect 60 FPS smoothness of Apple Watch’s second hand — a smoothness no mechanical watch could ever match.

You’re flirting. Not through words. Not through speech. Physically flirting, by touch. And you’re not even in the same classroom. Maybe you don’t even go to the same school.

Does the Apple second hand do that continuous rotate thing

wait this is insane, he knows there are sweep second hands right?

sweep second hands generally do it by ticking 6 or 8 times a second, which makes them look smooth. Pure spring-driven sweep exists too, but it's pretty rare.

feel like the grubes thread is the appropriate place to talk about how jeb thinks we should replace obamacare with apple watch

"You're diabetic, you can't do that," Bush said, mimicking what the watch would say if someone chows down on a butterscotch sundae for example.

Congrats to the Tories.

your health being only related your decisions and personal responsibility is a pretty good republican talking point

ppl really don't like thinking that they could be fit as hell and get super-cancer anyway or have their gall bladder fuck up

John has always seemed to want The Talk Show’s annual live show at WWDC to resemble his fond childhood memories of the Johnny Carson late-night TV talk show. Past years have been closer to that format and pacing, but this was nothing like it at all.

John isn’t Johnny — John is better.

I think if your Safari Content Blocker blocks The Deck by default, it’s wrong. I dare you to defend it.
