Flipping Tables

Google I/O 2016 happened. Moar messaging apps, Google Home, and Android on ChromeOS. And somehow Lyons finds a way to still talk about his iPhone SE.

Lyons' iPhone SE arrived and the following is a recording of that event. The Good, The Bad, and if you're Mike; the Stockholm syndrome.

Lyons buys an iPhone SE (that hasn't arrived yet.) The shift from desktop to mobile has largely happened. And Mike shares insights on spec work inspired by CGP Grey's recent job ad.

Talkshow.im is texting in public, but is it worth doing? And Square Enix is finally learning that people will pay money for classic style JRPGs like Bravely Second and I Am Setsuna.

The Slacklash continues! Is threaded messaging enough to make Slack into a 'real' collaboration tool? And the radical plan to use a calendar and time marking system based on logic and not which ruler most recently invaded your country.

The trailer for Rogue One is out and looks really promising. Mike vents about Microsoft Office Updater updating with huge updates after it updates itself. And could Google make Swift a first-class language on Android?

They just don't make Final Fantasy like they used to. And if the future is APIs and the Internet of Things we should probably figure out some ground rules.

We're done reporting on Apple vs the FBI! Tons of followup about funding OSS. The Bash shell comes to Windows. And Miitomo is totally maybe the future of social networking but probably not.

The term 'holoportation' may never catch on but hopefully th technology does! Microsoft isn't just about hololense though, they also made an (accidentally) bigotted AI named Tay. And our spoilerific discussion of 'Batman v Superman'.

Instagram joins Twitter in embracing algorithmic timelines, Steve Wozniak admits the fabled garage of Apple's origins is a myth, and Napter's Sean Parker is back with an idea to bring theatrical release movies to home on release day, with support from Steven Spielberg, JJ Abrams and Peter Jackson. NOTE: We recorded this episode before the breaking news of the FBI's near total withdrawal from their All Writs Act order against Apple.
