00:04:07 ◼   ► and i have no experience with see [TS]

00:04:10 ◼   ► Swift's predecessor language I mean that [TS]

00:04:13 ◼   ► the language i am most familiar with is [TS]

00:04:15 ◼   ► actually lisp from years ago which is a [TS]

00:04:18 ◼   ► bizarre language and I don't even know [TS]

00:04:21 ◼   ► what that one is [TS]

00:04:22 ◼   ► yeah if you just look at what list looks [TS]

00:04:25 ◼   ► like it is [TS]

00:04:26 ◼   ► no other programming language because [TS]

00:04:27 ◼   ► the whole thing is based on parentheses [TS]

00:04:30 ◼   ► it doesn't it doesn't even have like it [TS]

00:04:34 ◼   ► is just missing many of the features [TS]

00:04:35 ◼   ► that you would expect a normal computer [TS]

00:04:37 ◼   ► programming language to have em yeah [TS]

00:04:39 ◼   ► well those good features double missed [TS]

00:04:41 ◼   ► yes that's right like you know which one [TS]

00:04:43 ◼   ► the good ones yes all of the good one [TS]

00:04:45 ◼   ► has all the bad ones that now it's it's [TS]

00:04:48 ◼   ► it's simple and beautiful and [TS]

00:04:50 ◼   ► impractical for very many situations but [TS]

00:04:54 ◼   ► nonetheless is the one that I have the [TS]

00:04:55 ◼   ► most experience when she is it for this [TS]

00:04:57 ◼   ► is the one that's used for some of the [TS]

00:04:59 ◼   ► stuff now that's being done in [TS]

00:05:01 ◼   ► artificial intelligence research [TS]

00:05:03 ◼   ► oh so out of the time it was used for [TS]

00:05:06 ◼   ► genetic algorithms in genetic [TS]

00:05:08 ◼   ► programming i have no idea if the [TS]

00:05:11 ◼   ► language is still in use today for those [TS]

00:05:13 ◼   ► purposes but you know ten years ago this [TS]

00:05:16 ◼   ► was the language that because of some of [TS]

00:05:19 ◼   ► its strange features was very very [TS]

00:05:21 ◼   ► useful for doing the kind of thing where [TS]

00:05:23 ◼   ► you are writing a program to program [TS]

00:05:25 ◼   ► itself as opposed to writing it to [TS]

00:05:27 ◼   ► explicitly solve a problem so lisp very [TS]

00:05:31 ◼   ► very weird at and probably not a [TS]

00:05:33 ◼   ► language you would want to use under [TS]

00:05:34 ◼   ► most circumstances but the thing that I [TS]

00:05:36 ◼   ► was familiar with the years ago and [TS]

00:05:38 ◼   ► while i could not program my way out of [TS]

00:05:42 ◼   ► a paper bag today even with Lisp if i'm [TS]

00:05:46 ◼   ► sitting in a session at WWDC and they do [TS]

00:05:48 ◼   ► the throwing code on the screen thing [TS]

00:05:51 ◼   ► while I will agree with you it does the [TS]

00:05:54 ◼   ► the level of boringness personally does [TS]

00:05:57 ◼   ► go up quite a lot during those moments I [TS]

00:05:59 ◼   ► can still at least follow the gist of [TS]

00:06:02 ◼   ► what is going on [TS]

00:06:04 ◼   ► like I have a sense of what they're [TS]

00:06:05 ◼   ► talking about or or what this is code is [TS]

00:06:08 ◼   ► doing even though i can't follow the [TS]

00:06:11 ◼   ► details so that's why sitting in a [TS]

00:06:15 ◼   ► session it was an interesting thing to [TS]

00:06:17 ◼   ► do during this experience like I said I [TS]

00:06:20 ◼   ► just tried to pick ones that were [TS]

00:06:22 ◼   ► relevant to my interests so the first [TS]

00:06:24 ◼   ► one I went to was on research kit so [TS]

00:06:27 ◼   ► they were doing a little session about [TS]

00:06:29 ◼   ► some of the changes with research kit [TS]

00:06:32 ◼   ► which is their system that allows [TS]

00:06:35 ◼   ► scientists and medical researchers to [TS]

00:06:37 ◼   ► try to collect data from patients and [TS]

00:06:39 ◼   ► try to give feedback to patients and [TS]

00:06:41 ◼   ► that was interesting to see I'm like [TS]

00:06:43 ◼   ► what what they're up to there and then I [TS]

00:06:45 ◼   ► also just set it on another one which [TS]

00:06:47 ◼   ► was about developing games for the Apple [TS]

00:06:50 ◼   ► watch [TS]

00:06:50 ◼   ► I like the whole notion of that i [TS]

00:06:52 ◼   ► thought was really funny because there's [TS]

00:06:54 ◼   ► so little space here I was just kind of [TS]

00:06:55 ◼   ► curious to see you know like what do [TS]

00:06:59 ◼   ► they think is a viable option for a game [TS]

00:07:01 ◼   ► and that means to date the only thing i [TS]

00:07:05 ◼   ► have ever seen which I thought was kind [TS]

00:07:07 ◼   ► of an interesting game for Apple watch [TS]

00:07:08 ◼   ► with something called i think it was [TS]

00:07:11 ◼   ► called lifeline [TS]

00:07:12 ◼   ► yes very optional and you have to kind [TS]

00:07:15 ◼   ► of talk to the astral right yeah that is [TS]

00:07:17 ◼   ► that i thought was interesting begin its [TS]

00:07:20 ◼   ► it's essentially like a little text [TS]

00:07:21 ◼   ► adventures is kind of what's occurring [TS]

00:07:22 ◼   ► but I thought the the whole idea of a [TS]

00:07:25 ◼   ► wrist communicator and you're sending [TS]

00:07:26 ◼   ► messages back and forth like it really [TS]

00:07:28 ◼   ► worked on the Apple watch but i was [TS]

00:07:30 ◼   ► curious to see like what are they [TS]

00:07:31 ◼   ► developing for games in general like if [TS]

00:07:34 ◼   ► they're having a session here they [TS]

00:07:35 ◼   ► clearly think that there is something to [TS]

00:07:36 ◼   ► the idea of gaming on the Apple watch so [TS]

00:07:39 ◼   ► i went in and i watch that and I thought [TS]

00:07:40 ◼   ► it was interesting and i also like to [TS]

00:07:42 ◼   ► try to look out for the things that [TS]

00:07:44 ◼   ► Apple isn't saying so I couldn't help [TS]

00:07:47 ◼   ► but notice during the entire time I was [TS]

00:07:49 ◼   ► sitting in that Apple watch session that [TS]

00:07:52 ◼   ► they were never ever mentioning force [TS]

00:07:55 ◼   ► pressing on the Apple watch and then I [TS]

00:07:57 ◼   ► cast my mind back to the WWDC [TS]

00:07:59 ◼   ► announcement I thought huh i don't think [TS]

00:08:01 ◼   ► they mentioned anything about force [TS]

00:08:03 ◼   ► pressing there either [TS]

00:08:04 ◼   ► and so just little things like that i [TS]

00:08:06 ◼   ► just get curious and I think I wonder [TS]

00:08:08 ◼   ► what's up with that there are many [TS]

00:08:09 ◼   ► situations here what it would seem to [TS]

00:08:11 ◼   ► make sense that you want to have force [TS]

00:08:12 ◼   ► pressing on the screen especially for [TS]

00:08:14 ◼   ► games but it seems notably absent so [TS]

00:08:17 ◼   ► yeah I just like being in the sessions [TS]

00:08:19 ◼   ► and trying to read between the lines of [TS]

00:08:21 ◼   ► what Apple's upto which is you know [TS]

00:08:24 ◼   ► always always fun doing the kind of [TS]

00:08:25 ◼   ► Criminology of Apple discussions and [TS]

00:08:29 ◼   ► events so yeah that was a is primarily [TS]

00:08:32 ◼   ► what i was doing in the morning [TS]

00:08:34 ◼   ► I'm pleased that you did it there was a [TS]

00:08:36 ◼   ► conversation where I made that I was way [TS]

00:08:39 ◼   ► too chicken to do this to sneak and I'd [TS]

00:08:44 ◼   ► be too scared to get caught [TS]

00:08:46 ◼   ► see the trick with so many of these [TS]

00:08:48 ◼   ► things is to just try to act very [TS]

00:08:52 ◼   ► confidently when you walk through the [TS]

00:08:53 ◼   ► door but this is why i know that i [TS]

00:08:55 ◼   ► couldn't because I would be to scared of [TS]

00:08:57 ◼   ► getting cool right [TS]

00:08:58 ◼   ► I couldn't act that way just gotta walk [TS]

00:09:01 ◼   ► through the door with your forged and or [TS]

00:09:04 ◼   ► stolen tickets and or gifted ticket who [TS]

00:09:06 ◼   ► knows and just you know look [TS]

00:09:09 ◼   ► the trick is like you look past the guy [TS]

00:09:11 ◼   ► at the door like you're already in right [TS]

00:09:14 ◼   ► like you're not concerned what he's [TS]

00:09:15 ◼   ► thinking about when you're walking in [TS]

00:09:17 ◼   ► the door if you looked nervously at the [TS]

00:09:19 ◼   ► security garden and tremblingly hand [TS]

00:09:21 ◼   ► over your ticket as i'm sure you would [TS]

00:09:23 ◼   ► have done then they're going to know [TS]

00:09:24 ◼   ► they're going to know something's up but [TS]

00:09:25 ◼   ► you act like you're already in the event [TS]

00:09:28 ◼   ► as you're walking in the event and [TS]

00:09:29 ◼   ► you're just being minorly inconvenienced [TS]

00:09:31 ◼   ► by having to hand over the ticket that's [TS]

00:09:33 ◼   ► what you do that i did worked work just [TS]

00:09:36 ◼   ► fine [TS]

00:09:36 ◼   ► good and the fact that i had a valid [TS]

00:09:38 ◼   ► ticket probably helps yeah it was [TS]

00:09:39 ◼   ► evaluated right like the biggest air [TS]

00:09:42 ◼   ► quotes it take existed [TS]

00:09:45 ◼   ► yeah that's Joe that's true the ticket [TS]

00:09:46 ◼   ► existed might not have been valid for me [TS]

00:09:49 ◼   ► I think they're not transferable [TS]

00:09:51 ◼   ► so what about the people like you to [TS]

00:09:53 ◼   ► speak to anyone where you staying [TS]

00:09:55 ◼   ► completely incognito because of not only [TS]

00:09:57 ◼   ► the fact that you like to be incognito [TS]

00:09:59 ◼   ► you also they're sneaking yeah so the [TS]

00:10:02 ◼   ► people is an interesting thing once [TS]

00:10:05 ◼   ► people knew that I was at WWDC I did [TS]

00:10:08 ◼   ► start getting recognized by a few people [TS]

00:10:10 ◼   ► who were there and that was fine and [TS]

00:10:13 ◼   ► also i was able to actually end up [TS]

00:10:17 ◼   ► speaking to a few people who make apps [TS]

00:10:21 ◼   ► that I use which was an interesting [TS]

00:10:24 ◼   ► experience to be able to do that I feel [TS]

00:10:26 ◼   ► so sorry for those people I why do you [TS]

00:10:30 ◼   ► say that Mike why do you say that Q [TS]

00:10:31 ◼   ► because I metric all hey I really love [TS]

00:10:33 ◼   ► your app here is 65 features i would [TS]

00:10:36 ◼   ► like you to implement the only I need to [TS]

00:10:40 ◼   ► see I try to take the entire opposite [TS]

00:10:46 ◼   ► tack in those moments you might think [TS]

00:10:48 ◼   ► that I would harass the developers but [TS]

00:10:50 ◼   ► mostly I feel like people do things for [TS]

00:10:53 ◼   ► their own reasons if someone asks then [TS]

00:10:56 ◼   ► maybe I'm ready to offer a bunch of [TS]

00:10:58 ◼   ► things that I would [TS]

00:10:59 ◼   ► like but even then I know full well [TS]

00:11:01 ◼   ► which features are just for me and so I [TS]

00:11:03 ◼   ► will preface that in the conversation of [TS]

00:11:05 ◼   ► this is a feature that you should not [TS]

00:11:07 ◼   ► implement because it is just for me but [TS]

00:11:09 ◼   ► I'm still going to mention if you ask [TS]

00:11:11 ◼   ► all right i'll do that kind of thing but [TS]

00:11:14 ◼   ► I I don't feel the need to harass any of [TS]

00:11:18 ◼   ► the developers i am fortunate enough to [TS]

00:11:20 ◼   ► speak to and really I just like being [TS]

00:11:22 ◼   ► able to talk to people and get some [TS]

00:11:24 ◼   ► sense of why have they structured the [TS]

00:11:29 ◼   ► app this way or like what interesting [TS]

00:11:31 ◼   ► directions are they may be going to take [TS]

00:11:32 ◼   ► it in the future I think that's a it's [TS]

00:11:35 ◼   ► just an interesting thing to be able to [TS]

00:11:37 ◼   ► do and something like being on the [TS]

00:11:40 ◼   ► inside of WWDC has an unusually high [TS]

00:11:44 ◼   ► density of people who work on a thing [TS]

00:11:48 ◼   ► which I directly use so after the [TS]

00:11:52 ◼   ► sessions are over i was kind of running [TS]

00:11:54 ◼   ► around and meeting a few different [TS]

00:11:56 ◼   ► people for a few different things and [TS]

00:11:58 ◼   ► that's partly partly why i was saying on [TS]

00:12:00 ◼   ► Twitter that i was i was at WWDC because [TS]

00:12:04 ◼   ► i was able to kind of catch a few people [TS]

00:12:08 ◼   ► actually lucky enough that the guy named [TS]

00:12:12 ◼   ► Harlan was able to give me a demo of the [TS]

00:12:15 ◼   ► thing that I was most interested in from [TS]

00:12:17 ◼   ► the WTC announcement which was [TS]

00:12:20 ◼   ► playgrounds for swift for the ipad so I [TS]

00:12:24 ◼   ► felt very fortunate that at one point I [TS]

00:12:27 ◼   ► was able to wander down to like this [TS]

00:12:30 ◼   ► this big ground area WWDC where you [TS]

00:24:43 ◼   ► broadly I find that people who make [TS]

00:24:48 ◼   ► their living in a public way and so this [TS]

00:24:53 ◼   ► can include people like developers right [TS]

00:24:56 ◼   ► they are making a thing and they are [TS]

00:24:58 ◼   ► putting it out in public for this can [TS]

00:25:00 ◼   ► include lots of people in the periphery [TS]

00:25:03 ◼   ► of the whole YouTube world of like they [TS]

00:25:58 ◼   ► in london in my social circle who does [TS]

00:26:02 ◼   ► work like this and so we can always just [TS]

00:26:27 ◼   ► like in that sense it's networking [TS]

00:26:29 ◼   ► because my feeling was a bit like i am [TS]

00:26:32 ◼   ► going to meet up with colleagues they [TS]

00:26:35 ◼   ► might not do the exact same thing that I [TS]
