DHH on X — Apple would be wise to study the long arc of Microsoft’s history. Learn that you can win the battle, say, against Epic, and end up losing the war for the hearts and minds of developers.
Apple's Big Brother Now - dominickm.com — Getting right down to brass App Store tax. You’re almost certainly not saving any money. Apple is only taking three-percent off their cut even if you process the payment via another processor. Payment processors charging what they tend, that means you will likely save no money whatsoever; this is increasingly apparent once you begin to consider the implementation cost of setting up third-party payment processing and complying with the rest of Apple’s onerous terms.
Evan on X — Apple expects to sell an estimated 300K-400K Vision Pros in 2024 - Bloomberg
Apple Vision Pro: Lack of Netflix, YouTube, App Store Tensions Threaten Device - Bloomberg — Some big name developers thus far aren’t doing much to help the device. Three of the world’s most popular streaming services — Netflix Inc., YouTube and Spotify Technology SA — have already signaled that they won’t be launching visionOS software or enabling their iPad apps to run on the Vision Pro.

Fake AI Until You Make AI | Coder Radio 553 Jan 17, 2024

Show notes

They are building AI into toilets now; CES was a clown show. But we put our business hats on and find the bright side.

Plus, Epic's major loss to Apple that just rolled in, and where we think the next fight will be, and how developers can get ahead of it.

💥 Gets Sats Quick and Easy with Strike — Strike is a lightning-powered app that lets you quickly and cheaply grab sats in over 36 countries.
📻 Boost with Fountain.FM — Fountain 1.0 is out with a new UI, upgrades, and super simple Strike integration for easy Boosts.
Mark Gurman on X — The Vision Pro virtual keyboard is a complete write-off at least in 1.0. You have to poke each key one finger at a time like you did before you learned how to type. There is no magical in-air typing. You can also look at a character and pinch. You’ll want a Bluetooth keyboard.
Here's How Vision Pro Demos Will Work at Apple Stores — In his Power On newsletter today, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said each demo will last around 20 to 25 minutes. After a calibration process, he said the customer will view still photos, panoramas, spatial photos, and spatial videos in the Photos app. Next, he said customers will learn how to position multiple app windows and scroll through pages in Safari. Then, they will view immersive 3D content, including movie clips, sports, and a tightrope scene.
Epic’s California injunction against Apple’s anti-steering rule takes effect as Supreme Court denies both parties’ petitions — The most important question, however, is whether the United States Department of Justice, which is reportedly readying a major antitrust case against Apple, and/or other private parties are now going to sue Apple over the App Store monopoly, potentially with stronger expert testimony (which is not even the only way in which they could benefit form the lessons learned from Epic Games v. Apple).
gamesfray on X🧵1/4 — The #EpicGames v. #Apple judgment is now FINAL. The Supreme Court has denied either party's petition for review.
This means the anti-anti-steering injunction that Epic won under California Unfair Competition Law enters into force. Apple wanted to prevent or delay that.

🧵1/4
App Store to Be 'Split in Two' Ahead of EU iPhone Sideloading Deadline — Apple is apparently planning to roll out adjustments to comply with the new legal requirements in the coming weeks, including splitting off the ‌App Store‌ in the EU from the rest of the world. The deadline for Apple to comply with the DMA is March 7, so the company has just over seven weeks to enact the changes.
Google confirms it just laid off around a thousand employees — Or more than a thousand? Depends on the definition of “few”.
Google announces another round of layoffs - YouTube
Vic 🌮 on X — It's January 11 and the following companies have done layoffs so far.
Layoffs.fyi — Tech Layoff Tracker and Startup Layoff Lists.
Discord lays off 17 percent of employees — In an internal memo, CEO Jason Citron said the company grew headcount too quickly over the past few years.
Apple to Shutter 121-Person San Diego AI Team in Reorganization — Apple Inc. is shutting a 121-person team related to artificial intelligence operations in San Diego, leaving many employees at risk of termination, according to people familiar with the matter.
At CES, everything was AI, even when it wasn’t — But as more companies rebrand anything involving algorithms as AI, how are we meant to separate the chaff from the wheat?
AI Briefing: What marketing and tech experts noticed at CES 2024 — Unsurprisingly in Las Vegas last week, AI was inarguably one of the hot topics. Major brands and startups alike spent the week touting new AI chatbots for everything from cars and bikes to smart TVs and personal devices.

📻 LINUX Unplugged on Fountain.FM
Boltz — Privacy First, Non-Custodial Bitcoin Exchange.
bcachefs — bcachefs is an advanced new filesystem for Linux, with an emphasis on reliability and robustness and the complete set of features one would expect from a modern filesystem.
bcachefs Erasure coding — Bcachefs takes advantage of the fact that it is already a copy-on-write filesystem. If we're designing our filesystem to avoid update-in-place, why would we do update-in-place in our RAID implementation?
bcachefs Caching — bcachefs can be configured for writethrough, writeback, and writearound caching, as well as other more specialized setups.
bachefs Compression — Unlike other filesystems that typically do compression at the block level, bcachefs does compression at the extent level - variable size chunks, up to (by default) 128k.
bcachefs Encryption — bcachefs uses AEAD style encryption (ChaCha20/Poly1305), where each encrypted block is authenticated with a MAC, with a chain of trust up to root (the superblock), and every encrypted block has a unique nonce.
bcachefs Snapshots — bcachefs provides Btrfs style writeable snapshots, at subvolume granularity.
(2015) [ANNOUNCE] bcachefs - a general purpose COW filesystem — It's taken a long time to get to this point - longer than I would have guessed if you'd asked me back when we first started talking about it - but I'm pretty damn proud of where it's at now.

Bitcoin ETF widely expected to get approval this week - YouTube — CNBC's Kate Rooney reports on news around Bitcoin.
Macs can now detect liquids in USB-C ports — On the Mac, however, the code suggests that the daemon is only used for “analytics” and is not associated with end-user features. While Apple may eventually implement an alert similar to the one that already exists in iOS, it seems more likely that the data collected by this daemon will be used for technicians to determine whether a Mac is eligible for free repair.
Apple Vision Pro sales will start on February 2 — Apple's headset will ship to customers on February 2. Preorders begin on January 19.
Apple: Developers shouldn't refer to visionOS apps as AR or VR —
The company is asking developers not to refer to visionOS apps using terms such as AR (augmented reality), VR (virtual reality), XR (extended reality), or MR (mixed reality). Instead, Apple says that visionOS apps are “spatial computing apps.”
DHH on X — We have some great, native, dedicated apps ready for HEY Calendar. The Android one is just sitting there waiting for us to push publish in the Google Play Store. Guess what's happening to the other one for iOS? Still "in review" since mid December 🙄
DHH on X — Ah @apple, not this shit again. I thought we sorted it out 2.5 years ago in round one?! Why oh why must it be like this! You know we're not just going to roll over, that we're never going to pay the 30% ransom. Just approve the fucking app and we'll be on our merry way!
DHH on X — Apple just called to let us know they're rejecting the HEY Calendar app from the App Store (in current form). Same bullying tactics as last time: Push delicate rejections to a call with a first-name-only person who'll softly inform you it's your wallet or your kneecaps.
Apple rejects the HEY Calendar from their App Store — So what’s going to happen? I don’t know, but I do know that we’ll keep fighting. We’re never going to roll over and pay Apple 30% in protection money to be left alone. Last time we found a way, and we will again.
Apple might be the next Big Tech company facing antitrust charges in the US - The Verge — The Department of Justice is finalizing an antitrust investigation into Apple that targets its closed ecosystem, according to The New York Times.
Tim Sweeney on X — Fortnite, but not on iOS because you are blocking it from a billion users.
Apple’s rejection of Hey calendar app renews an old fight — Basecamp founder and app creator David Heinemeier Hansson referred to Apple’s decision as “bullying tactics.”
Happiness is never having to ask for permission — We can put peak native apps in the rearview mirror in 2024. So pack your bags and come along for the ride!
We’ve resubmitted the HEY Calendar app to Apple — Did we want to work through the weekend to add this? No. But we also don’t want to leave our customers with iPhones waiting for our awesome native HEY Calendar app.
DHH on X — Apple approved the HEY Calendar!! It's now available for download in the @appstore . Ridiculous it needed this level of awareness/pressure, but I'm so happy for our iOS team to see their work through the weekend pay off in full. Thanks to all who cheered!
The New York Times Sues Microsoft, OpenAI for Copyright Infringement — The New York Times has sued Microsoft and OpenAI for copyright infringement and is seeking “billions of dollars in statutory and actual damages.”
Amazon's Silent Sacking — In 2023 Amazon laid off more than 27,000 people. While that’s a big number it’s a deceptively small percentage for a company with more than 1.6 million employees (1.7%).
Should You Watch Babylon 5? : startrek — Babylon 5 is basically the anti-Trek. More specifically, it's the anti-TNG. The Earth Alliance isn't a magic utopia, it's the exact government you would expect modern boneheaded American politicians to set up if they suddenly landed in 2250.
