Oh boy, three weeks in a row! Do we meander with no real destination? Some would say yes. But it's all a part of life's journey, and we're happy to share it with you.

We're back, actually recording two weeks in a row! We chat about the Swift-going-open-source announcement obvs but also some stuff surrounding it, like Docker, its package manager, and the nerds getting mad about the end of "master/slave" as acceptable tech jargon. It's a real banger of an episode.

Wow, so Ash and Tom are back after a year of hiatus! How exciting. Also Ash forgot to make sure he was recording off his proper mic, and Tom misplaces his proper mic, and they’re both very sorry. So this week, we chat about minimalism in apartments, Canada’s hot new PM, dwelling on the past, Swift compatibility, open source communities, dynamic languages, and networking abstractions. It’s an all-around good time.

So Ash used the wrong microphone for a bit (to hilarious effect) and Tom is in New England. We talk about geography of the East Coast (it's riveting), Ash clears his throat a lot, we discuss our new iPhones 6, then we talk about Primer for a bit. Like, eventually. We kind of talk about a lot of things. It's a talk-heavy show, even for a talk show.

This week, we chat about NSSpain, image stabilization, autofocus, SLR technology – just photography stuff in general, really – functional programming in Swift, the Moon landing hoax, the gender gap in the software industry, and wrap up about Richard Dawkins. It's fun.

We're back this week after Ash's near-death cold. We banter for a while, discussing our various addictions, Dutch midrise elevators for-rent, and the weather (we're so sorry). But then we dive right in. We wrap up some talk on gender issues and GamerGate, whether or not an objective reality exists, time travel, the Standard Markdown kerfuffle, the Apple Watch, and negativity in the community.

We begin with Follow Up. Lots of Follow Up. We talk Swift, Game of Thrones, Spaaaaaaace, Faux Pas (it's got an 'x' in it butcha don't pronounce it), comics, floating point number specifications, cracking Android devices remotely (heh), open source, Tom got married, hating on Malcom Gladwell, and even touch on USB security. Huzzah!

We start out this week by taking a short coffee break, talking about Swift, and marvelling at the sheer enormity of Apple revenues. Then we discuss new forms of super-malware before going down a rabit hole of comic books characters.

Holy hiatuses, Batman! This week, we cover some long-overdue follow up, talk about Swift, that app documentary, and how much the world sucks right now. If you're into pop psych, look forward to our discussion of the Fundamental Attribution Error. Finally, we talk about the future of Art.

Ash and Tom are back! We're chatting about our little break, WWDC, Swift 'n stuff, engineering maturity, iOS 8, and other things. Oh, and Ash doesn't watch Game of Thrones.
