Thinking a lot about tech execs and VCs walking out of the room to check their phones at Code 2019 instead of staying to listen to Stacey Abrams — PolitiTweet.org

@alexvoica @redletterdave @kellymakena I don’t like where this went — PolitiTweet.org

Gonna be a lot of these as we cruise to our 10 year anniversary this year! Early on Tom told me “you only tell people what not to do, never what they can do” which was one of the most important lessons about running a team I’ve ever learned — PolitiTweet.org

@HarrenGWarding @Apple @AppleSupport @intel @backlon @gruber hey there, yes, we and many others noted this in our reviews. It’s an odd limitation https://t.co/QZjW3tTSyW https://t.co/2ShrX1ACQx — PolitiTweet.org

So half of the new records I’ve bought recently are 2xLPs with no inner tracks. Like this very pretty copy of Taylor Swift’s Folklore https://t.co/KSd7gUVhVG — PolitiTweet.org

But when vinyl was the only music format, no one wanted to flip records all the time. So everyone made use of the whole side, and artists and engineers would order albums to have the quieter songs on the inner grooves. — PolitiTweet.org

My oldest records, like our beloved 1974 copy of Sticky Fingers (with real zipper sleeve!) are packed tight to the center. What’s going on? https://t.co/aNX0AMxoXs — PolitiTweet.org

I’m on vacation so of course I am thinking about how music is expressed on different formats, like this new Chris Stapleton record I got for Christmas. Note that it only has three tracks on side A and the center is blank - the album came on 2xLPs, like a lot of new vinyl. https://t.co/vImfZqzo1R — PolitiTweet.org

@blakereid @Krischi I think the answer is the CEC answer - it’s not in the interest of any member company to push it, so it languishes even though various individuals know it’s frustrating. Feels like a clear example of the market working in one way - HDMI exists! - and totally failing in another — PolitiTweet.org

@bradleege Maybe they should call Google — PolitiTweet.org

@gustojunk They are so very opposed to that - they won’t release Apple TV+ apps for smart TVs unless the TV makers turn that stuff off for them — PolitiTweet.org

@jon_bois They scored, the Apple TV called the police to come to my house and let me know — PolitiTweet.org

The funny thing is that I’m not even sure where the Apple TV would send me to watch this game. It presumably isn’t YouTube TV, since it doesn’t know I’m already watching it there — PolitiTweet.org

It’s unequivocally good that a bunch of rich tech people want to leave SF and build tech economies elsewhere. It’s also unequivocally hilarious that a bunch of dudes who all wear the same fleece vests think they can roll up in Miami — PolitiTweet.org
