follow we&#8217;re<\/p>\n<p>0:01:59.670,0:02:02.930<br \/>\njust talking about that work a lot so<\/p>\n<p>0:02:01.710,0:02:10.319<br \/>\nthis is a great example<\/p>\n<p>0:02:02.930,0:02:13.380<br \/>\nabsolutely absolutely geez so today we<\/p>\n<p>0:02:10.319,0:02:16.770<br \/>\nare going to be talking about hardware<\/p>\n<p>0:02:13.380,0:02:19.860<br \/>\nI think a lot of us uh in in our sort of<\/p>\n<p>0:02:16.770,0:02:21.270<br \/>\npreparation up to this topic I gusto had<\/p>\n<p>0:02:19.860,0:02:23.400<br \/>\nbeen talking about this idea that people<\/p>\n<p>0:02:21.270,0:02:27.080<br \/>\nsometimes sort of fall into the hardware<\/p>\n<p>0:02:23.400,0:02:29.340<br \/>\nthat they are using to be productive and<\/p>\n<p>0:02:27.080,0:02:31.980<br \/>\njust sort of you know and I think it&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:02:29.340,0:02:34.170<br \/>\ntrue we all kind of come to this place<\/p>\n<p>0:02:31.980,0:02:36.000<br \/>\nwhere we have the phone we have we have<\/p>\n<p>0:02:34.170,0:02:39.540<br \/>\nthe computer we have we have the tablet<\/p>\n<p>0:02:36.000,0:02:41.880<br \/>\nmaybe that we are using and we really<\/p>\n<p>0:02:39.540,0:02:43.800<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t know why or how it&#8217;s sort of like<\/p>\n<p>0:02:41.880,0:02:45.810<br \/>\nyou know it&#8217;s sort of like pens of<\/p>\n<p>0:02:43.800,0:02:47.190<br \/>\nyesteryear you know I used to pick up<\/p>\n<p>0:02:45.810,0:02:48.750<br \/>\npens at conferences<\/p>\n<p>0:02:47.190,0:02:50.340<br \/>\nso whatever pen I picked up at a<\/p>\n<p>0:02:48.750,0:02:52.590<br \/>\nconference was the pen that I was using<\/p>\n<p>0:02:50.340,0:02:55.920<br \/>\nuntil it ran out and then I would pick<\/p>\n<p>0:02:52.590,0:02:58.020<br \/>\nup the next pen and and then I fell in<\/p>\n<p>0:02:55.920,0:03:00.360<br \/>\nlove with pens and so I was like oh my<\/p>\n<p>0:02:58.020,0:03:02.010<br \/>\ngosh I have to go by you know really<\/p>\n<p>0:03:00.360,0:03:04.890<br \/>\nnice pen and so I started looking for<\/p>\n<p>0:03:02.010,0:03:06.360<br \/>\nthe pen that I really wanted I think<\/p>\n<p>0:03:04.890,0:03:08.580<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s sort of the case with regard to<\/p>\n<p>0:03:06.360,0:03:10.320<br \/>\nproductivity enthusiasts I think over<\/p>\n<p>0:03:08.580,0:03:12.360<br \/>\ntime we start to pay very close<\/p>\n<p>0:03:10.320,0:03:14.370<br \/>\nattention to the details of all the<\/p>\n<p>0:03:12.360,0:03:15.810<br \/>\ntools that we use and so I thought it<\/p>\n<p>0:03:14.370,0:03:18.180<br \/>\nwould be really great for us all to have<\/p>\n<p>0:03:15.810,0:03:21.960<br \/>\nthat discussion I had a nice thought of<\/p>\n<p>0:03:18.180,0:03:25.230<br \/>\nbrick because I when I moved to Jamaica<\/p>\n<p>0:03:21.960,0:03:29.430<br \/>\nfrom living in Florida and I no longer<\/p>\n<p>0:03:25.230,0:03:30.870<br \/>\nhad CompUSA and BestBuy and I didn&#8217;t<\/p>\n<p>0:03:29.430,0:03:34.140<br \/>\nhave these electronic stores I didn&#8217;t<\/p>\n<p>0:03:30.870,0:03:36.480<br \/>\nhave overnight Amazon or 100 our Amazon<\/p>\n<p>0:03:34.140,0:03:38.600<br \/>\ndelivery anymore so I had to be very<\/p>\n<p>0:03:36.480,0:03:40.920<br \/>\ncareful about my technology choices I<\/p>\n<p>0:03:38.600,0:03:43.709<br \/>\nalso didn&#8217;t have access to tech support<\/p>\n<p>0:03:40.920,0:03:46.050<br \/>\nthat we added in the States so I became<\/p>\n<p>0:03:43.709,0:03:49.709<br \/>\na bit of an ascetic you know like a monk<\/p>\n<p>0:03:46.050,0:03:52.200<br \/>\nI became very very stingy because when<\/p>\n<p>0:03:49.709,0:03:55.709<br \/>\nyou don&#8217;t have immediate access to toys<\/p>\n<p>0:03:52.200,0:03:58.230<br \/>\nand gadgets and devices you tend to<\/p>\n<p>0:03:55.709,0:04:01.140<br \/>\nthink about it long and hard before you<\/p>\n<p>0:03:58.230,0:04:03.570<br \/>\nactually adopt anything new so today I<\/p>\n<p>0:04:01.140,0:04:07.050<br \/>\nhave what I call a I guess a minimalist<\/p>\n<p>0:04:03.570,0:04:11.370<br \/>\nset up so I have an Android Android<\/p>\n<p>0:04:07.050,0:04:13.410<br \/>\nphone it&#8217;s it&#8217;s because I work out a lot<\/p>\n<p>0:04:11.370,0:04:17.250<br \/>\nI do a lot of exercise my phones get wet<\/p>\n<p>0:04:13.410,0:04:19.920<br \/>\nso and as a result they fail so I&#8217;ve<\/p>\n<p>0:04:17.250,0:04:22.710<br \/>\nbeen through a and maybe four or five in<\/p>\n<p>0:04:19.920,0:04:25.200<br \/>\nthe last couple years and I decided no<\/p>\n<p>0:04:22.710,0:04:26.670<br \/>\nmore big expenditure so I have a minimal<\/p>\n<p>0:04:25.200,0:04:29.130<br \/>\nan Android<\/p>\n<p>0:04:26.670,0:04:32.940<br \/>\ndevices just fast enough just has it off<\/p>\n<p>0:04:29.130,0:04:35.130<br \/>\nmemory keeps number of apps tones those<\/p>\n<p>0:04:32.940,0:04:36.240<br \/>\nit does what it needs to do but it does<\/p>\n<p>0:04:35.130,0:04:38.610<br \/>\nit quickly cuz it happens to have a<\/p>\n<p>0:04:36.240,0:04:40.620<br \/>\npretty quick chip tilt into it but not a<\/p>\n<p>0:04:38.610,0:04:42.630<br \/>\nlot of space and then I have that link<\/p>\n<p>0:04:40.620,0:04:44.850<br \/>\nto a Lenovo laptop<\/p>\n<p>0:04:42.630,0:04:47.100<br \/>\nI used to use Toshiba but then I<\/p>\n<p>0:04:44.850,0:04:49.380<br \/>\nswitched over turn over because of the<\/p>\n<p>0:04:47.100,0:04:51.660<br

my<\/p>\n<p>0:06:14.220,0:06:19.650<br \/>\ncreation takes place so this is where I<\/p>\n<p>0:06:16.620,0:06:22.320<br \/>\nneed every thaller poll all the<\/p>\n<p>0:06:19.650,0:06:24.810<br \/>\ndifferent devices I need sound any good<\/p>\n<p>0:06:22.320,0:06:27.600<br \/>\nsong so microphone is plugged in here<\/p>\n<p>0:06:24.810,0:06:30.140<br \/>\nand my headphone my like good headphones<\/p>\n<p>0:06:27.600,0:06:33.090<br \/>\nare plugged in this is where I produce<\/p>\n<p>0:06:30.140,0:06:35.909<br \/>\ncontents that&#8217;s where I do heavy duty<\/p>\n<p>0:06:33.090,0:06:38.729<br \/>\nprocessing of email and my phone is it&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:06:35.909,0:06:40.230<br \/>\njust sort of a convenience I guess it&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:06:38.729,0:06:42.570<br \/>\nwhat I use when<\/p>\n<p>0:06:40.230,0:06:45.240<br \/>\nI&#8217;m away from either the from the tablet<\/p>\n<p>0:06:42.570,0:06:49.160<br \/>\nor the laptop it&#8217;s when I&#8217;m on the move<\/p>\n<p>0:06:45.240,0:06:52.520<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve taken off apps from my phone that<\/p>\n<p>0:06:49.160,0:06:56.370<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t fit that

I<\/p>\n<p>0:06:59.280,0:07:04.620<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t process or create anything on my<\/p>\n<p>0:07:01.440,0:07:08.640<br \/>\non my phone not really it&#8217;s just it&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:07:04.620,0:07:10.590<br \/>\njust a user for reminders a lot it&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:07:08.640,0:07:11.940<br \/>\nmoose it&#8217;s one I listen to the

\/>\non my phone I try to use that as my<\/p>\n<p>0:07:15.870,0:07:20.300<br \/>\nmobile notification device the one that<\/p>\n<p>0:07:18.570,0:07:23.490<br \/>\ntravels with me all the time so it&#8217;s my<\/p>\n<p>0:07:20.300,0:07:26.760<br \/>\nnotifier and while my laptop does give<\/p>\n<p>0:07:23.490,0:07:29.250<br \/>\nme notifications I it&#8217;s really my phone<\/p>\n<p>0:07:26.760,0:07:31.020<br \/>\nthat I let try to listen to my tablet<\/p>\n<p>0:07:29.250,0:07:33.000<br \/>\nI&#8217;m about to turn off notifications from<\/p>\n<p>0:07:31.020,0:07:33.990<br \/>\nthere once I figure out how but only<\/p>\n<p>0:07:33.000,0:07:36.990<br \/>\nlisten to that at all<\/p>\n<p>0:07:33.990,0:07:39.570<br \/>\nso I guess I&#8217;ve sort of split my use<\/p>\n<p>0:07:36.990,0:07:41.520<br \/>\namong the three the three different<\/p>\n<p>0:07:39.570,0:07:44.640<br \/>\ntypes of screens I&#8217;m trying to separate<\/p>\n<p>0:07:41.520,0:07:46.710<br \/>\nthem even further as new software comes<\/p>\n<p>0:07:44.640,0:07:49.890<br \/>\nout that allows me to do that I&#8217;m trying<\/p>\n<p>0:07:46.710,0:07:54.900<br \/>\nto do that so using Windows 10 on the<\/p>\n<p>0:07:49.890,0:07:57.900<br \/>\nLenovo laptop no 7000 sigh I refuse to I<\/p>\n<p>0:07:54.900,0:08:03.540<br \/>\ntried it for both uh was an hour I think<\/p>\n<p>0:07:57.900,0:08:07.020<br \/>\na couple hours and I said oh no no no<\/p>\n<p>0:08:03.540,0:08:10.110<br \/>\nhouse was well early adopters I said oh<\/p>\n<p>0:08:07.020,0:08:13.110<br \/>\nno no no it slowed my machine don&#8217;t talk<\/p>\n<p>0:08:10.110,0:08:15.240<br \/>\ncrawl and it was sort of the first or<\/p>\n<p>0:08:13.110,0:08:16.950<br \/>\nsecond week er that you know my first<\/p>\n<p>0:08:15.240,0:08:19.920<br \/>\nsolid came out and started being rolled<\/p>\n<p>0:08:16.950,0:08:22.050<br \/>\nout and I said oh no no no I&#8217;m not<\/p>\n<p>0:08:19.920,0:08:24.990<br \/>\nmessing with this thing at all and<\/p>\n<p>0:08:22.050,0:08:26.700<br \/>\nunless like I can be I can be convinced<\/p>\n<p>0:08:24.990,0:08:29.760<br \/>\nthat it&#8217;s gonna impact my productivity<\/p>\n<p>0:08:26.700,0:08:34.080<br \/>\nand so far I keep reading I can&#8217;t see a<\/p>\n<p>0:08:29.760,0:08:36.150<br \/>\nsingle feature that I would gain that<\/p>\n<p>0:08:34.080,0:08:40.310<br \/>\nwould make a profound enough difference<\/p>\n<p>0:08:36.150,0:08:44.250<br \/>\nto run the risk of screwing something up<\/p>\n<p>0:08:40.310,0:08:46.590<br \/>\nget used to the interface yeah I my wife<\/p>\n<p>0:08:44.250,0:08:50.300<br \/>\nhas Windows 8 on her computer and every<\/p>\n<p>0:08:46.590,0:08:50.300<br \/>\ntime I log in the night what day<\/p>\n<p>0:08:52.339,0:08:57.050<br \/>\nand when they fix that with Windows 10<\/p>\n<p>0:08:54.439,0:08:58.519<br \/>\nsomewhat but well they can send kind of<\/p>\n<p>0:08:57.050,0:09:00.499<br \/>\nan eight point one eight point one I<\/p>\n<p>0:08:58.519,0:09:03.439<br \/>\nthink was a really was really necessary<\/p>\n<p>0:09:00.499,0:09:05.629<br \/>\nthey brought back the the start button<\/p>\n<p>0:09:03.439,0:09:08.509<br \/>\nyou know something right it made it very<\/p>\n<p>0:09:05.629,0:09:12.170<br \/>\nvery unhelpful especially people who are<\/p>\n<p>0:09:08.509,0:09:14.420<br \/>\nmore you know older who just really you<\/p>\n<p>0:09:12.170,0:09:16.490<br \/>\nknow they they had an entire lifetime of<\/p>\n<p>0:09:14.420,0:09:18.139<br \/>\ncomputing with a start button and then<\/p>\n<p>0:09:16.490,0:09:20.449<br \/>\nall of a sudden it was gone it was like<\/p>\n<p>0:09:18.139,0:09:22.999<br \/>\nhow do i compute you know how do i get<\/p>\n<p>0:09:20.449,0:09:25.819<br \/>\nto the areas it was very very difficult<\/p>\n<p>0:09:22.999,0:09:27.649<br \/>\nfor people so i&#8217;m really glad that they<\/p>\n<p>0:09:25.819,0:09:29.779<br \/>\nbrought back the start button and the<\/p>\n<p>0:09:27.649,0:09:31.519<br \/>\ndesktop you know in a in an easier way<\/p>\n<p>0:09:29.779,0:09:33.529<br \/>\nto get to you know things of that nature<\/p>\n<p>0:09:31.519,0:09:35.749<br \/>\nso i formed a sort of a strong opinion<\/p>\n<p>0:09:33.529,0:09:38.629<br \/>\nabout that after having that experience<\/p>\n<p>0:09:35.749,0:09:40.970<br \/>\nof not finding the start button and and<\/p>\n<p>0:09:38.629,0:09:42.649<br \/>\na few other apps that were upgraded in<\/p>\n<p>0:09:40.970,0:09:45.499<br \/>\nways that developers liked but users<\/p>\n<p>0:09:42.649,0:09:47.569<br \/>\ndidn&#8217;t mmm that that developers don&#8217;t<\/p>\n<p>0:09:45.499,0:09:50.509<br \/>\npay sufficient attention to user<\/p>\n<p>0:09:47.569,0:09:53.689<br \/>\nbehavior and they don&#8217;t map out the<\/p>\n<p>0:09:50.509,0:09:55.999<br \/>\nchange in the practices that users have<\/p>\n<p>0:09:53.689,0:09:59.779<br \/>\nto engage in in order to use your new<\/p>\n<p>0:09:55.999,0:10:02.389<br \/>\ndevice or your new app or your new<\/p>\n<p>0:09:59.779,0:10:04.639<br \/>\nupgrade they don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s through in<\/p>\n<p>0:10:02.389,0:10:06.800<br \/>\nterms of the behaviors and because of<\/p>\n<p>0:10:04.639,0:10:08.269<br \/>\nthat there is there a lot of a lot of<\/p>\n<p>0:10:06.800,0:10:10.430<br \/>\nthe upgrades just simply people hate<\/p>\n<p>0:10:08.269,0:10:12.860<br \/>\nthem but it&#8217;s not because the upgrades<\/p>\n<p>0:10:10.430,0:10:14.029<br \/>\nare bad if they were the first you know<\/p>\n<p>0:10:12.860,0:10:16.129<br \/>\nthat came what was the first release<\/p>\n<p>0:10:14.029,0:10:18.649<br \/>\nfine it&#8217;s just that once you have habits<\/p>\n<p>0:10:16.129,0:10:21.769<br \/>\nin place changing your habits is so hard<\/p>\n<p>0:10:18.649,0:10:24.589<br \/>\nand it&#8217;s so unwieldy and it&#8217;s so<\/p>\n<p>0:10:21.769,0:10:26.509<br \/>\ndifficult that if developers were to<\/p>\n<p>0:10:24.589,0:10:29.540<br \/>\nthink you know what am i what habits am<\/p>\n<p>0:10:26.509,0:10:32.329<br \/>\ni asking my users to change in order to<\/p>\n<p>0:10:29.540,0:10:33.920<br \/>\naccept this device that question seems<\/p>\n<p>0:10:32.329,0:10:35.839<br \/>\nto be one that&#8217;s missing for the most<\/p>\n<p>0:10:33.920,0:10:38.059<br \/>\npart and that i think that results in<\/p>\n<p>0:10:35.839,0:10:41.000<br \/>\nbad software and bad hardware of course<\/p>\n<p>0:10:38.059,0:10:43.009<br \/>\ncan inform factor has so much to do you<\/p>\n<p>0:10:41.000,0:10:44.660<br \/>\nknow you I think you&#8217;re talking a

you<\/p>\n<p>0:10:46.579,0:10:50.689<br \/>\nknow on the topic of hardware it makes<\/p>\n<p>0:10:47.959,0:10:52.850<br \/>\nsuch a huge difference that when I have<\/p>\n<p>0:10:50.689,0:10:54.759<br \/>\na form factor that you&#8217;re used to and<\/p>\n<p>0:10:52.850,0:10:57.350<br \/>\nyou&#8217;re comfortable you know I&#8217;m time<\/p>\n<p>0:10:54.759,0:10:59.899<br \/>\nwhen when I get to

the<\/p>\n<p>0:11:02.089,0:11:06.019<br \/>\nit is it is something that I think<\/p>\n<p>0:11:04.189,0:11:08.029<br \/>\ndevelopers need to have<\/p>\n<p>0:11:06.019,0:11:10.369<br \/>\nmore

when<\/p>\n<p>0:12:23.749,0:12:32.480<br \/>\nthe iPad came out it was more out of<\/p>\n<p>0:12:27.889,0:12:37.459<br \/>\ndesperation that I try to to reduce the<\/p>\n<p>0:12:32.480,0:12:42.290<br \/>\nweight and see if I could work with a<\/p>\n<p>0:12:37.459,0:12:44.569<br \/>\nminimum really minimum set so the iPad<\/p>\n<p>0:12:42.290,0:12:47.569<br \/>\nwas the first tool I picked for that<\/p>\n<p>0:12:44.569,0:12:50.779<br \/>\ncould I have pick up PC and could I pick<\/p>\n<p>0:12:47.569,0:12:52.669<br \/>\na Mac probably but but there was<\/p>\n<p>0:12:50.779,0:12:55.129<br \/>\nsomething about the iPad that was really<\/p>\n<p>0:12:52.669,0:12:58.459<br \/>\ncool for me at that time so I start<\/p>\n<p>0:12:55.129,0:13:01.730<br \/>\nlooking in ways to make it work it is<\/p>\n<p>0:12:58.459,0:13:05.689<br \/>\nperfect no it is 2017 and it stills not<\/p>\n<p>0:13:01.730,0:13:10.369<br \/>\nperfect but I can make around 95% of<\/p>\n<p>0:13:05.689,0:13:13.040<br \/>\nwhat I do and now even those 5% that<\/p>\n<p>0:13:10.369,0:13:16.369<br \/>\nsometimes require me to login into the<\/p>\n<p>0:13:13.040,0:13:19.520<br \/>\nMac or into a PC I can even do it from<\/p>\n<p>0:13:16.369,0:13:22.160<br \/>\nthe iPad I use Google Chrome next up<\/p>\n<p>0:13:19.520,0:13:24.110<br \/>\nnext up and then login you know into the<\/p>\n<p>0:13:22.160,0:13:27.170<br \/>\nMac and even do it from the iPad on<\/p>\n<p>0:13:24.110,0:13:30.200<br \/>\nthose few things that I need to do that<\/p>\n<p>0:13:27.170,0:13:32.990<br \/>\nrequire me to use a computer and most of<\/p>\n<p>0:13:30.200,0:13:35.510<br \/>\nthe time has nothing to do with the<\/p>\n<p>0:13:32.990,0:13:40.760<br \/>\ncapabilities of the iPad and has to do<\/p>\n<p>0:13:35.510,0:13:41.480<br \/>\nwith how things are coded into into the<\/p>\n<p>0:13:40.760,0:13:44.660<br \/>\ncomputer<\/p>\n<p>0:13:41.480,0:13:48.140<br \/>\nsomething like what Francis had I have<\/p>\n<p>0:13:44.660,0:13:51.800<br \/>\nthree main devices I have an iPad Mini<\/p>\n<p>0:13:48.140,0:13:55.070<br \/>\nand my iPad Mini is mostly a consumption<\/p>\n<p>0:13:51.800,0:13:59.330<br \/>\ndevice that&#8217;s where I read that&#8217;s where<\/p>\n<p>0:13:55.070,0:14:02.899<br \/>\nI&#8217;m thinking that were I do you know a<\/p>\n<p>0:13:59.330,0:14:05.020<br \/>\nlot of high-end work I&#8217;m not typing or<\/p>\n<p>0:14:02.899,0:14:11.990<br \/>\nwriting or anything on that one I<\/p>\n<p>0:14:05.020,0:14:15.260<br \/>\nrecently changed my 9.7 iPad to a 12.9<\/p>\n<p>0:14:11.990,0:14:19.670<br \/>\niPad and for the iPad pro the big one<\/p>\n<p>0:14:15.260,0:14:22.700<br \/>\nand I really mean enjoying that when you<\/p>\n<p>0:14:19.670,0:14:26.089<br \/>\nmake this little screen on that one you<\/p>\n<p>0:14:22.700,0:14:29.450<br \/>\nget the equivalent of 29.7 iPad<\/p>\n<p>0:14:26.089,0:14:31.850<br \/>\nside-by-side so as much as you need to<\/p>\n<p>0:14:29.450,0:14:36.050<br \/>\nbe really careful on the distraction<\/p>\n<p>0:14:31.850,0:14:38.930<br \/>\nfrom you know because obviously having<\/p>\n<p>0:14:36.050,0:14:41.170<br \/>\nthe possibility of have two screens it<\/p>\n<p>0:14:38.930,0:14:43.670<br \/>\nincreased productivity but also increase<\/p>\n<p>0:14:41.170,0:14:46.399<br \/>\nthe amount of distraction so you need to<\/p>\n<p>0:14:43.670,0:14:48.890<br \/>\nreally keep yourself in check that&#8217;s it<\/p>\n<p>0:14:46.399,0:14:49.399<br \/>\nit&#8217;s fantastic what you can do with that<\/p>\n<p>0:14:48.890,0:14:52.520<br \/>\nmachine<\/p>\n<p>0:14:49.399,0:14:54.130<br \/>\nthat machine has four gigabyte of RAM<\/p>\n<p>0:14:52.520,0:14:56.990<br \/>\nthat it&#8217;s more than what most people<\/p>\n<p>0:14:54.130,0:14:59.899<br \/>\ncomputers has I understand most people<\/p>\n<p>0:14:56.990,0:15:02.209<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t know that but but four gigabytes<\/p>\n<p>0:14:59.899,0:15:05.000<br \/>\nof RAM on an iPad really make it fast<\/p>\n<p>0:15:02.209,0:15:10.010<br \/>\nand that make it really fun to work with<\/p>\n<p>0:15:05.000,0:15:13.430<br \/>\nit and finally I have an iPhone is a<\/p>\n<p>0:15:10.010,0:15:18.170<br \/>\nphone I don&#8217;t use it mostly for anything<\/p>\n<p>0:15:13.430,0:15:21.589<br \/>\nelse even a couple of weeks ago ray send<\/p>\n<p>0:15:18.170,0:15:23.839<br \/>\nme something for me to review and I was<\/p>\n<p>0:15:21.589,0:15:26.149<br \/>\nout and about and I just had my phone<\/p>\n<p>0:15:23.839,0:15:29.529<br \/>\nand I said sorry I kind of read it<\/p>\n<p>0:15:26.149,0:15:31.350<br \/>\nbecause I don&#8217;t have activated I<\/p>\n<p>0:15:29.529,0:15:35.610<br \/>\nremember that<\/p>\n<p>0:15:31.350,0:15:38.639<br \/>\nand well there are I have I have said a<\/p>\n<p>0:15:35.610,0:15:41.449<br \/>\nlot about email an email doesn&#8217;t matter<\/p>\n<p>0:15:38.639,0:15:46.139<br \/>\nwhich device you use and which devices<\/p>\n<p>0:15:41.449,0:15:49.199<br \/>\nyou enjoy Judea was email and you need<\/p>\n<p>0:15:46.139,0:15:52.769<br \/>\nto be paying attention to what you do<\/p>\n<p>0:15:49.199,0:15:56.370<br \/>\nwith those devices and what you do you<\/p>\n<p>0:15:52.769,0:16:00.750<br \/>\nknow with that my focus and my attention<\/p>\n<p>0:15:56.370,0:16:03.779<br \/>\nis my most pressure resource and if I<\/p>\n<p>0:16:00.750,0:16:05.730<br \/>\nallow every electronic device I have<\/p>\n<p>0:16:03.779,0:16:08.130<br \/>\naround me to distract me<\/p>\n<p>0:16:05.730,0:16:12.089<br \/>\nthen I will never accomplish anything so<\/p>\n<p>0:16:08.130,0:16:15.329<br \/>\nit&#8217;s that the reason why I don&#8217;t try to<\/p>\n<p>0:16:12.089,0:16:18.209<br \/>\ndo things on the iPad Mini that I do on<\/p>\n<p>0:16:15.329,0:16:20.819<br \/>\nthe other iPad can I do oh yeah I have<\/p>\n<p>0:16:18.209,0:16:25.829<br \/>\nwrote three or four books on the iPad<\/p>\n<p>0:16:20.819,0:16:28.230<br \/>\nMini the question is is the big iPad<\/p>\n<p>0:16:25.829,0:16:30.690<br \/>\nbetter yes I write on a Scrivener the<\/p>\n<p>0:16:28.230,0:16:32.399<br \/>\nfour gigabytes of RAM make a difference<\/p>\n<p>0:16:30.690,0:16:35.430<br \/>\nwhen you are working on a Scrivener on<\/p>\n<p>0:16:32.399,0:16:38.069<br \/>\nthe iPad and that make it way nicer to<\/p>\n<p>0:16:35.430,0:16:40.290<br \/>\nwork in it so I stopped trying to make<\/p>\n<p>0:16:38.069,0:16:42.810<br \/>\nthe iPad Mini work for that and went<\/p>\n<p>0:16:40.290,0:16:45.630<br \/>\ndirectly to only write with the big<\/p>\n<p>0:16:42.810,0:16:48.089<br \/>\nkeyboard the biggest screen and anyways<\/p>\n<p>0:16:45.630,0:16:50.100<br \/>\nmost of the time I carry everything yeah<\/p>\n<p>0:16:48.089,0:16:52.139<br \/>\nyou brought up a point about distraction<\/p>\n<p>0:16:50.100,0:16:55.290<br \/>\nAugusto and it&#8217;s funny<\/p>\n<p>0:16:52.139,0:16:57.300<br \/>\nI think was back in 2014 the University<\/p>\n<p>0:16:55.290,0:16:59.579<br \/>\nof Southern Maine had done this study of<\/p>\n<p>0:16:57.300,0:17:02.370<br \/>\nstudents and it said that actually one<\/p>\n<p>0:16:59.579,0:17:05.280<br \/>\nwhat a phone is in in just in your<\/p>\n<p>0:17:02.370,0:17:07.260<br \/>\npresence like is when it&#8217;s visible it<\/p>\n<p>0:17:05.280,0:17:11.130<br \/>\nmakes you more distracted and therefore<\/p>\n<p>0:17:07.260,0:17:13.740<br \/>\nless productive and so the suggestion<\/p>\n<p>0:17:11.130,0:17:15.990<br \/>\nthat came out of this this you know<\/p>\n<p>0:17:13.740,0:17:17.939<br \/>\npublished study and the journal social<\/p>\n<p>0:17:15.990,0:17:20.280<br \/>\npsychology talks about this idea of<\/p>\n<p>0:17:17.939,0:17:22.589<br \/>\nputting your cell phone or your<\/p>\n<p>0:17:20.280,0:17:25.110<br \/>\nsmartphone out of view when you&#8217;re<\/p>\n<p>0:17:22.589,0:17:26.610<br \/>\nworking on a computer or tablet or<\/p>\n<p>0:17:25.110,0:17:29.309<br \/>\nsomething like that because it actually<\/p>\n<p>0:17:26.610,0:17:31.650<br \/>\nmakes you less productive I think that&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:17:29.309,0:17:34.830<br \/>\nvery fascinating so we we all have to be<\/p>\n<p>0:17:31.650,0:17:36.840<br \/>\nvery cautious of what even devices we<\/p>\n<p>0:17:34.830,0:17:39.210<br \/>\nhave in front of us like our phone<\/p>\n<p>0:17:36.840,0:17:42.330<br \/>\nbecause the phone you know maybe not<\/p>\n<p>0:17:39.210,0:17:44.760<br \/>\neven because the notifications are you<\/p>\n<p>0:17:42.330,0:17:46.830<br \/>\nknow flashing or buzzing or<\/p>\n<p>0:17:44.760,0:17:49.980<br \/>\nor dinging it&#8217;s because you know in<\/p>\n<p>0:17:46.830,0:17:51.720<br \/>\nreality those things are going to just<\/p>\n<p>0:17:49.980,0:17:53.280<br \/>\nmake us less productive even by their<\/p>\n<p>0:17:51.720,0:17:55.740<br \/>\nmirror visual presence<\/p>\n<p>0:17:53.280,0:17:57.900<br \/>\nI yearn for a powerful notification<\/p>\n<p>0:17:55.740,0:18:00.240<br \/>\nprogram that could control my<\/p>\n<p>0:17:57.900,0:18:03.900<br \/>\nnotifications across all my devices I<\/p>\n<p>0:18:00.240,0:18:06.030<br \/>\nyearn for it I&#8217;m like please please and<\/p>\n<p>0:18:03.900,0:18:09.450<br \/>\nand I think if they could if they could<\/p>\n<p>0:18:06.030,0:18:11.190<br \/>\ncustomize notifications per for anything<\/p>\n<p>0:18:09.450,0:18:14.640<br \/>\nyou know just like us customize and<\/p>\n<p>0:18:11.190,0:18:18.750<br \/>\ncontrol them I&#8217;d be so happy I&#8217;d be I&#8217;d<\/p>\n<p>0:18:14.640,0:18:22.760<br \/>\nbe over the moon and sound like the<\/p>\n<p>0:18:18.750,0:18:22.760<br \/>\nApple fan guy but the apples there we go<\/p>\n<p>0:18:24.320,0:18:29.610<br \/>\npeople can do that pretty much every<\/p>\n<p>0:18:27.120,0:18:32.640<br \/>\nring device you tell and whatever you<\/p>\n<p>0:18:29.610,0:18:35.850<br \/>\ntell but no we we notice we don&#8217;t notice<\/p>\n<p>0:18:32.640,0:18:39.630<br \/>\nhow much destruction you know a cell<\/p>\n<p>0:18:35.850,0:18:42.690<br \/>\nphone the problem is I said this I have<\/p>\n<p>0:18:39.630,0:18:43.800<br \/>\nsaid this before and if you go back to<\/p>\n<p>0:18:42.690,0:18:46.740<br \/>\nthe 80s<\/p>\n<p>0:18:43.800,0:18:49.560<br \/>\nokay the transition between the 80s and<\/p>\n<p>0:18:46.740,0:18:51.960<br \/>\nthe 90s was clear okay when you change<\/p>\n<p>0:18:49.560,0:18:54.240<br \/>\nwhen when you change for what was you<\/p>\n<p>0:18:51.960,0:18:56.700<br \/>\nknow the Cubbies world &#8211; the getting<\/p>\n<p>0:18:54.240,0:18:58.920<br \/>\nthings done world the transition you<\/p>\n<p>0:18:56.700,0:19:00.960<br \/>\nknow it came we started the United<\/p>\n<p>0:18:58.920,0:19:02.930<br \/>\nStates were changing and most jobs were<\/p>\n<p>0:19:00.960,0:19:05.250<br \/>\nchanging from a line to a<\/p>\n<p>0:19:02.930,0:19:07.170<br \/>\nservice-oriented the problem is the<\/p>\n<p>0:19:05.250,0:19:09.300<br \/>\nchange that came after that was a<\/p>\n<p>0:19:07.170,0:19:12.270<br \/>\ntechnology change and most people didn&#8217;t<\/p>\n<p>0:19:09.300,0:19:16.350<br \/>\neven notice you know when when you think<\/p>\n<p>0:19:12.270,0:19:18.900<br \/>\nabout FaceTime and I and I look this you<\/p>\n<p>0:19:16.350,0:19:22.290<br \/>\nknow I see this with my kids and it is<\/p>\n<p>0:19:18.900,0:19:24.990<br \/>\nincredible if I tell right now to the<\/p>\n<p>0:19:22.290,0:19:26.970<br \/>\nthree of us who spend we are not going<\/p>\n<p>0:19:24.990,0:19:28.950<br \/>\nto admit how many hours on the phones<\/p>\n<p>0:19:26.970,0:19:29.490<br \/>\nand video conference and those kind of<\/p>\n<p>0:19:28.950,0:19:31.830<br \/>\nthings<\/p>\n<p>0:19:29.490,0:19:34.260<br \/>\nif I tell you I&#8217;m going to call you<\/p>\n<p>0:19:31.830,0:19:38.340<br \/>\nright now okay and we&#8217;re going to do a<\/p>\n<p>0:19:34.260,0:19:38.790<br \/>\nFaceTime or or a Skype call okay or even<\/p>\n<p>0:19:38.340,0:19:44.040<br \/>\nthis<\/p>\n<p>0:19:38.790,0:19:46.370<br \/>\nokay you&#8217;re you mentally set yourself to<\/p>\n<p>0:19:44.040,0:19:49.580<br \/>\nthat okay because would you leave the<\/p>\n<p>0:19:46.370,0:19:52.770<br \/>\nbefore so where this was impossible and<\/p>\n<p>0:19:49.580,0:19:55.980<br \/>\nthe earliest stages of this where it was<\/p>\n<p>0:19:52.770,0:19:58.500<br \/>\nawful to them all to the point where we<\/p>\n<p>0:19:55.980,0:20:00.960<br \/>\nare right now in three different cities<\/p>\n<p>0:19:58.500,0:20:03.990<br \/>\nand we can even go and record remotely<\/p>\n<p>0:20:00.960,0:20:08.700<br \/>\nwhen you look at my kids okay<\/p>\n<p>0:20:03.990,0:20:10.260<br \/>\nthey get their iPad okay to call your<\/p>\n<p>0:20:08.700,0:20:13.549<br \/>\ngrandparents okay<\/p>\n<p>0:20:10.260,0:20:17.400<br \/>\nand they don&#8217;t understand the technology<\/p>\n<p>0:20:13.549,0:20:19.230<br \/>\nthat is behind that for them that is you<\/p>\n<p>0:20:17.400,0:20:21.450<br \/>\nknow you could see my four-year-old<\/p>\n<p>0:20:19.230,0:20:23.370<br \/>\ngetting mad because grandma is not<\/p>\n<p>0:20:21.450,0:20:29.070<br \/>\npicking the phone and he&#8217;s calling on<\/p>\n<p>0:20:23.370,0:20:32.610<br \/>\nFaceTime how dare she is nothing but for<\/p>\n<p>0:20:29.070,0:20:35.309<br \/>\nthem that technology is nothing that&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:20:32.610,0:20:39.179<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s the reality they don&#8217;t even<\/p>\n<p>0:20:35.309,0:20:42.480<br \/>\nconsider you know for for us we think on<\/p>\n<p>0:20:39.179,0:20:45.450<br \/>\nWow how far quick<\/p>\n<p>0:20:42.480,0:20:49.530<br \/>\ntechnology has come for them they don&#8217;t<\/p>\n<p>0:20:45.450,0:20:52.070<br \/>\nknow anything else yes so I just want to<\/p>\n<p>0:20:49.530,0:20:54.690<br \/>\ndouble back for a moment to Francis&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:20:52.070,0:20:56.549<br \/>\ndiscussion about notifications and then<\/p>\n<p>0:20:54.690,0:20:58.549<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll talk about my setup but the but<\/p>\n<p>0:20:56.549,0:21:02.429<br \/>\nFrancis you might want to check out<\/p>\n<p>0:20:58.549,0:21:04.470<br \/>\npushbullet so pushbullet and I&#8217;ll put a<\/p>\n<p>0:21:02.429,0:21:07.470<br \/>\nlink to it in the in the note show notes<\/p>\n<p>0:21:04.470,0:21:09.240<br \/>\nbut pushbullet handles notifications I<\/p>\n<p>0:21:07.470,0:21:11.940<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t think it handles it in the way in<\/p>\n<p>0:21:09.240,0:21:15.240<br \/>\nwhich you&#8217;re looking for but it may do<\/p>\n<p>0:21:11.940,0:21:17.610<br \/>\nsome more I&#8217;m not sure so but I think<\/p>\n<p>0:21:15.240,0:21:20.570<br \/>\nany suggestion at this point yeah yeah I<\/p>\n<p>0:21:17.610,0:21:24.330<br \/>\nuse I use pushbullet for management of<\/p>\n<p>0:21:20.570,0:21:26.760<br \/>\nnotifications from my my tablet and<\/p>\n<p>0:21:24.330,0:21:30.480<br \/>\nphone to my desktop when I want them<\/p>\n<p>0:21:26.760,0:21:34.380<br \/>\nwhile the iOS and the way iOS manages<\/p>\n<p>0:21:30.480,0:21:35.700<br \/>\nnotifications is is great you know there<\/p>\n<p>0:21:34.380,0:21:38.039<br \/>\nare limitations to that if your<\/p>\n<p>0:21:35.700,0:21:41.010<br \/>\ncross-platform and so it&#8217;s a nice segue<\/p>\n<p>0:21:38.039,0:21:43.679<br \/>\nto my own and set up which you know I am<\/p>\n<p>0:21:41.010,0:21:46.350<br \/>\nmulti operating system right so I use I<\/p>\n<p>0:21:43.679,0:21:47.880<br \/>\nuse pretty much you know all the<\/p>\n<p>0:21:46.350,0:21:50.159<br \/>\noperating systems that are available to<\/p>\n<p>0:21:47.880,0:21:51.929<br \/>\nme at any given time so and a lot of<\/p>\n<p>0:21:50.159,0:21:55.530<br \/>\nthis has to do with my my work and<\/p>\n<p>0:21:51.929,0:21:57.659<br \/>\ntesting different software so I&#8217;m I&#8217;m<\/p>\n<p>0:21:55.530,0:22:00.600<br \/>\nalways you know on multiple operating<\/p>\n<p>0:21:57.659,0:22:05.490<br \/>\nsystems so I&#8217;m on Mac OS X I&#8217;m on you<\/p>\n<p>0:22:00.600,0:22:09.179<br \/>\nknow pure Android you know phone and<\/p>\n<p>0:22:05.490,0:22:12.570<br \/>\nthen a Samsung flavor of Android on a<\/p>\n<p>0:22:09.179,0:22:17.340<br \/>\nSamsung tablet currently I got a<\/p>\n<p>0:22:12.570,0:22:19.740<br \/>\nsome tab and I&#8217;m really loving it this<\/p>\n<p>0:22:17.340,0:22:21.780<br \/>\none has the SIM card in it so I can have<\/p>\n<p>0:22:19.740,0:22:24.810<br \/>\ndigital I&#8217;m sorry broadband access<\/p>\n<p>0:22:21.780,0:22:27.150<br \/>\nwherever I might be and so that&#8217;s been<\/p>\n<p>0:22:24.810,0:22:28.560<br \/>\nreally great so having having a tablet<\/p>\n<p>0:22:27.150,0:22:30.720<br \/>\nthat can access the internet from<\/p>\n<p>0:22:28.560,0:22:32.250<br \/>\nanywhere has been really nice and it<\/p>\n<p>0:22:30.720,0:22:34.770<br \/>\ncreates a hotspot you know if I need<\/p>\n<p>0:22:32.250,0:22:39.270<br \/>\ninternet access to my laptop just like<\/p>\n<p>0:22:34.770,0:22:42.060<br \/>\nmy phone and so I&#8217;ve a Toshiba laptop<\/p>\n<p>0:22:39.270,0:22:43.830<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve got an HP laptop I&#8217;ve got two<\/p>\n<p>0:22:42.060,0:22:47.370<br \/>\nMacBook Airs sitting in front of me a<\/p>\n<p>0:22:43.830,0:22:49.670<br \/>\nthirteen and an eleven inch and so you<\/p>\n<p>0:22:47.370,0:22:52.620<br \/>\nknow and one of those laptops is running<\/p>\n<p>0:22:49.670,0:22:56.010<br \/>\nWindows 10 and one is running Linux Mint<\/p>\n<p>0:22:52.620,0:22:57.810<br \/>\nright now so you know yeah so I&#8217;m I&#8217;m<\/p>\n<p>0:22:56.010,0:22:59.640<br \/>\nrunning a lot of different operating<\/p>\n<p>0:22:57.810,0:23:02.040<br \/>\nsystems and I and I would and I would<\/p>\n<p>0:22:59.640,0:23:05.130<br \/>\nsay that definitely effects other<\/p>\n<p>0:23:02.040,0:23:08.040<br \/>\npeople&#8217;s productivity in terms of their<\/p>\n<p>0:23:05.130,0:23:09.450<br \/>\nability to transition between and<\/p>\n<p>0:23:08.040,0:23:11.910<br \/>\naugusto and I have had this discussion<\/p>\n<p>0:23:09.450,0:23:14.550<br \/>\nbefore Francis so I&#8217;m not gonna rehash<\/p>\n<p>0:23:11.910,0:23:16.890<br \/>\nit but it affects productivity in the<\/p>\n<p>0:23:14.550,0:23:19.260<br \/>\nsense that having a switch gears to a<\/p>\n<p>0:23:16.890,0:23:22.050<br \/>\ndifferent interface is and can be<\/p>\n<p>0:23:19.260,0:23:24.810<br \/>\nconfusing for people for me I&#8217;m using as<\/p>\n<p>0:23:22.050,0:23:27.150<br \/>\nmany Google products as possible through<\/p>\n<p>0:23:24.810,0:23:29.700<br \/>\nthe Google Chrome interface primarily so<\/p>\n<p>0:23:27.150,0:23:31.560<br \/>\nyou know I didn&#8217;t even mention the the<\/p>\n<p>0:23:29.700,0:23:41.580<br \/>\nChromebook flip that I have over here as<\/p>\n<p>0:23:31.560,0:23:45.210<br \/>\nwell so Chrome OS so you know my my<\/p>\n<p>0:23:41.580,0:23:46.740<br \/>\nsetup is is you know using the Google<\/p>\n<p>0:23:45.210,0:23:49.080<br \/>\nChrome browser really as a vessel to<\/p>\n<p>0:23:46.740,0:23:50.580<br \/>\nalmost everything that I do which is you<\/p>\n<p>0:23:49.080,0:23:52.740<br \/>\nknow connected to the web you know I&#8217;m<\/p>\n<p>0:23:50.580,0:23:54.540<br \/>\nusing a lot of web technologies the<\/p>\n<p>0:23:52.740,0:23:57.180<br \/>\nreason why I have the cross platform is<\/p>\n<p>0:23:54.540,0:23:59.550<br \/>\nbecause you know I&#8217;m using some bits of<\/p>\n<p>0:23:57.180,0:24:00.480<br \/>\nnative software that I want on the<\/p>\n<p>0:23:59.550,0:24:03.810<br \/>\ndesktop os&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:24:00.480,0:24:05.490<br \/>\nand I want to be able to and and it&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:24:03.810,0:24:07.350<br \/>\nalso you know I do a lot of work with<\/p>\n<p>0:24:05.490,0:24:09.510<br \/>\nEvernote I just I want to be able to<\/p>\n<p>0:24:07.350,0:24:11.880<br \/>\ntest and use Evernote on different<\/p>\n<p>0:24:09.510,0:24:14.490<br \/>\nplatforms to see how they how they would<\/p>\n<p>0:24:11.880,0:24:15.930<br \/>\nwork for a client right and yeah sort of<\/p>\n<p>0:24:14.490,0:24:19.260<br \/>\nthat kind of thing do a lot of testing<\/p>\n<p>0:24:15.930,0:24:21.870<br \/>\nfor those kinds of software so I think<\/p>\n<p>0:24:19.260,0:24:25.110<br \/>\nfor most people my setup is not helpful<\/p>\n<p>0:24:21.870,0:24:26.820<br \/>\nit is not really realistic and but I<\/p>\n<p>0:24:25.110,0:24:28.950<br \/>\nmean what I really do like is the fact<\/p>\n<p>0:24:26.820,0:24:33.660<br \/>\nthat my my processing power is<\/p>\n<p>0:24:28.950,0:24:35.910<br \/>\ndistributed and I I just really need a<\/p>\n<p>0:24:33.660,0:24:38.310<br \/>\nlot of processing power and to be able<\/p>\n<p>0:24:35.910,0:24:41.130<br \/>\nto switch back and forth between you<\/p>\n<p>0:24:38.310,0:24:43.160<br \/>\nknow loading something on one page so<\/p>\n<p>0:24:41.130,0:24:45.420<br \/>\nthat I can be doing something on another<\/p>\n<p>0:24:43.160,0:24:48.420<br \/>\nyou know like if I&#8217;m if I&#8217;m loading a<\/p>\n<p>0:24:45.420,0:24:50.700<br \/>\nweb site or a large database file I want<\/p>\n<p>0:24:48.420,0:24:53.190<br \/>\nto be able to continue to keep working<\/p>\n<p>0:24:50.700,0:24:55.200<br \/>\nwhile that&#8217;s happening and this allows<\/p>\n<p>0:24:53.190,0:24:56.940<br \/>\nme to be able to do that that I think<\/p>\n<p>0:24:55.200,0:24:59.310<br \/>\nyou know is if you have just one<\/p>\n<p>0:24:56.940,0:25:01.590<br \/>\ncomputer with even a very large display<\/p>\n<p>0:24:59.310,0:25:04.530<br \/>\nand I&#8217;m actually thinking about getting<\/p>\n<p>0:25:01.590,0:25:07.080<br \/>\na new display for my primary computer to<\/p>\n<p>0:25:04.530,0:25:08.690<br \/>\nyou know be able to do more as I think<\/p>\n<p>0:25:07.080,0:25:12.300<br \/>\nthe screen is just not big enough and<\/p>\n<p>0:25:08.690,0:25:14.040<br \/>\nyou know I I still really need multiple<\/p>\n<p>0:25:12.300,0:25:16.080<br \/>\ncomputers so that I&#8217;m I&#8217;m capable of<\/p>\n<p>0:25:14.040,0:25:18.420<br \/>\ntesting I still think that I could<\/p>\n<p>0:25:16.080,0:25:21.840<br \/>\nreduce the number of computers I use on<\/p>\n<p>0:25:18.420,0:25:24.090<br \/>\na regular basis so that I&#8217;m I&#8217;m doing a<\/p>\n<p>0:25:21.840,0:25:25.740<br \/>\nlittle bit more focused work on a larger<\/p>\n<p>0:25:24.090,0:25:27.450<br \/>\nscreen so that&#8217;s where I&#8217;m sort of going<\/p>\n<p>0:25:25.740,0:25:29.850<br \/>\nwith things you have multiple keyboards<\/p>\n<p>0:25:27.450,0:25:32.820<br \/>\nor do you have one keyboard that allows<\/p>\n<p>0:25:29.850,0:25:35.370<br \/>\nyou to access the different OSS can you<\/p>\n<p>0:25:32.820,0:25:39.300<br \/>\nswitch between them yeah so I came from<\/p>\n<p>0:25:35.370,0:25:41.640<br \/>\na world of the KVM switch where I had<\/p>\n<p>0:25:39.300,0:25:44.730<br \/>\nactually four different computers<\/p>\n<p>0:25:41.640,0:25:46.980<br \/>\nattached to two different laptops one<\/p>\n<p>0:25:44.730,0:25:49.920<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s it sat on my desk and one that<\/p>\n<p>0:25:46.980,0:25:51.780<br \/>\nsat on the keyboard tray and so I would<\/p>\n<p>0:25:49.920,0:25:54.960<br \/>\nuse four different computers one which<\/p>\n<p>0:25:51.780,0:25:58.560<br \/>\nwas our main main server that was many<\/p>\n<p>0:25:54.960,0:26:01.560<br \/>\nmany you know offices away in on our<\/p>\n<p>0:25:58.560,0:26:03.500<br \/>\nserver room and so I would connect to it<\/p>\n<p>0:26:01.560,0:26:07.290<br \/>\nthat way you know and use the KVM switch<\/p>\n<p>0:26:03.500,0:26:09.180<br \/>\nnowadays I&#8217;m on all laptops so I<\/p>\n<p>0:26:07.290,0:26:11.370<br \/>\nactually am NOT I&#8217;m using different<\/p>\n<p>0:26:09.180,0:26:12.360<br \/>\nkeyboards for all of them and so it&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:26:11.370,0:26:14.400<br \/>\nthe other thing they take up a lot of<\/p>\n<p>0:26:12.360,0:26:17.100<br \/>\nspace so you know my desk has to be you<\/p>\n<p>0:26:14.400,0:26:19.980<br \/>\nknow you know end to end in computers<\/p>\n<p>0:26:17.100,0:26:21.510<br \/>\nand and the stands that they service it<\/p>\n<p>0:26:19.980,0:26:24.540<br \/>\nin and I&#8217;ve gotten I&#8217;ve got the setup<\/p>\n<p>0:26:21.510,0:26:27.000<br \/>\ndone pretty well so that my tablets it&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:26:24.540,0:26:30.120<br \/>\nyou know next to the computer the phone<\/p>\n<p>0:26:27.000,0:26:30.930<br \/>\nsits on the computer rest or in its own<\/p>\n<p>0:26:30.120,0:26:33.090<br \/>\nlittle stand<\/p>\n<p>0:26:30.930,0:26:35.970<br \/>\nI like having all of the screens pretty<\/p>\n<p>0:26:33.090,0:26:38.820<br \/>\nmuch at the same height and sort of<\/p>\n<p>0:26:35.970,0:26:41.759<br \/>\ntouching distance so that I can sort of<\/p>\n<p>0:26:38.820,0:26:44.399<br \/>\nthe screens and then type on the laptop<\/p>\n<p>0:26:41.759,0:26:46.320<br \/>\nand see them you know side by side and<\/p>\n<p>0:26:44.399,0:26:49.049<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve turned off many of the<\/p>\n<p>0:26:46.320,0:26:50.549<br \/>\nnotifications on my my phone and tablet<\/p>\n<p>0:26:49.049,0:26:53.039<br \/>\nso I get only the ones that are<\/p>\n<p>0:26:50.549,0:26:55.860<br \/>\nimportant which keeps decision and<\/p>\n<p>0:26:53.039,0:26:58.320<br \/>\nnotification fatigue to a minimum and so<\/p>\n<p>0:26:55.860,0:27:00.480<br \/>\nso yeah so it&#8217;s it&#8217;s um it is a bit of<\/p>\n<p>0:26:58.320,0:27:06.990<br \/>\nswitching gears I feel like it gives me<\/p>\n<p>0:27:00.480,0:27:08.940<br \/>\naerobic exercise it&#8217;s also good for your<\/p>\n<p>0:27:06.990,0:27:10.740<br \/>\nvision you know you know for those of<\/p>\n<p>0:27:08.940,0:27:12.149<br \/>\nyou who don&#8217;t know the 20\/20 rule<\/p>\n<p>0:27:10.740,0:27:13.830<br \/>\nyou&#8217;re supposed to every twenty minutes<\/p>\n<p>0:27:12.149,0:27:16.320<br \/>\nyou&#8217;re supposed to look away from your<\/p>\n<p>0:27:13.830,0:27:18.629<br \/>\nyou know screen for about twenty seconds<\/p>\n<p>0:27:16.320,0:27:21.600<br \/>\nyou know to something 20 feet away for<\/p>\n<p>0:27:18.629,0:27:24.330<br \/>\nabout 20 seconds and switching gears<\/p>\n<p>0:27:21.600,0:27:27.629<br \/>\nbetween the different you know distances<\/p>\n<p>0:27:24.330,0:27:30.210<br \/>\nfor the various screens gives me you<\/p>\n<p>0:27:27.629,0:27:32.309<br \/>\nknow gives my eyes a little bit of you<\/p>\n<p>0:27:30.210,0:27:33.690<br \/>\nknow exercise but also you know giving<\/p>\n<p>0:27:32.309,0:27:36.149<br \/>\nthem a little bit of rest from staring<\/p>\n<p>0:27:33.690,0:27:39.360<br \/>\nat one screen at one distance all the<\/p>\n<p>0:27:36.149,0:27:41.399<br \/>\ntime and I do I do have a little note of<\/p>\n<p>0:27:39.360,0:27:42.840<br \/>\nno note afire that tells me to look away<\/p>\n<p>0:27:41.399,0:27:45.509<br \/>\nfrom my screen so that I can do the<\/p>\n<p>0:27:42.840,0:27:52.529<br \/>\n20-20-20 rule I had a thought actually<\/p>\n<p>0:27:45.509,0:27:55.620<br \/>\nyou said my setup may not apply to many<\/p>\n<p>0:27:52.529,0:27:59.960<br \/>\npeople and and probably mine either<\/p>\n<p>0:27:55.620,0:28:03.330<br \/>\nand probably Frances either what I have<\/p>\n<p>0:27:59.960,0:28:05.340<br \/>\nidentified over the years helping people<\/p>\n<p>0:28:03.330,0:28:09.090<br \/>\nyou know move into being<\/p>\n<p>0:28:05.340,0:28:11.909<br \/>\niPad only or even recommended nope sorry<\/p>\n<p>0:28:09.090,0:28:16.159<br \/>\nyou cannot be iPad only is that every<\/p>\n<p>0:28:11.909,0:28:19.799<br \/>\nsetup it has their own unique and<\/p>\n<p>0:28:16.159,0:28:23.220<br \/>\nsometimes geek people tend to add more<\/p>\n<p>0:28:19.799,0:28:25.669<br \/>\ncomputers to set up less geek people you<\/p>\n<p>0:28:23.220,0:28:28.830<br \/>\nknow wants to do different things but<\/p>\n<p>0:28:25.669,0:28:32.429<br \/>\ndoesn&#8217;t matter what you have computer<\/p>\n<p>0:28:28.830,0:28:35.789<br \/>\nwise and and if that&#8217;s set up it is what<\/p>\n<p>0:28:32.429,0:28:37.769<br \/>\nis important is to come and look what is<\/p>\n<p>0:28:35.789,0:28:40.620<br \/>\nwhat is going to allow you to do the job<\/p>\n<p>0:28:37.769,0:28:44.070<br \/>\nmore effectively you know you and I were<\/p>\n<p>0:28:40.620,0:28:46.830<br \/>\ndiscussing recently comment I got from<\/p>\n<p>0:28:44.070,0:28:48.929<br \/>\nfrom somebody a friend of mine saying<\/p>\n<p>0:28:46.830,0:28:52.039<br \/>\nwell the problem is you know I&#8217;m in<\/p>\n<p>0:28:48.929,0:28:53.809<br \/>\nstock with this PC computer<\/p>\n<p>0:28:52.039,0:28:55.940<br \/>\nstuck with this computer where I cannot<\/p>\n<p>0:28:53.809,0:28:58.129<br \/>\ninstall stuff where I cannot change your<\/p>\n<p>0:28:55.940,0:29:00.799<br \/>\nstuff where I cannot do anything of<\/p>\n<p>0:28:58.129,0:29:03.499<br \/>\nthose stuff and even that I may agree<\/p>\n<p>0:29:00.799,0:29:06.049<br \/>\nwith some of the stuff you said you know<\/p>\n<p>0:29:03.499,0:29:08.559<br \/>\nI&#8217;m stuck that&#8217;s this is what it is<\/p>\n<p>0:29:06.049,0:29:13.399<br \/>\nand these are the tools that I have and<\/p>\n<p>0:29:08.559,0:29:16.309<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s reality you know limit in a way a<\/p>\n<p>0:29:13.399,0:29:19.070<br \/>\nlot of people not everybody can come and<\/p>\n<p>0:29:16.309,0:29:21.649<br \/>\ndo you know what the three of us do that<\/p>\n<p>0:29:19.070,0:29:23.239<br \/>\nis let&#8217;s pick the device or let&#8217;s change<\/p>\n<p>0:29:21.649,0:29:24.979<br \/>\nthe device because now it&#8217;s more<\/p>\n<p>0:29:23.239,0:29:27.470<br \/>\nconvenient or less have the three<\/p>\n<p>0:29:24.979,0:29:29.960<br \/>\ndevices to work you know the reality is<\/p>\n<p>0:29:27.470,0:29:33.919<br \/>\nthere is an incredible large group of<\/p>\n<p>0:29:29.960,0:29:38.840<br \/>\npeople who is stuck on whatever machine<\/p>\n<p>0:29:33.919,0:29:39.349<br \/>\nis you know are you thinking in that<\/p>\n<p>0:29:38.840,0:29:42.139<br \/>\nmachine<\/p>\n<p>0:29:39.349,0:29:43.970<br \/>\nwell the question is why you know if you<\/p>\n<p>0:29:42.139,0:29:46.070<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t like I understand you need to do<\/p>\n<p>0:29:43.970,0:29:48.049<br \/>\nthe job in there but you can go for<\/p>\n<p>0:29:46.070,0:29:50.539<br \/>\nother tools when you now go to high<\/p>\n<p>0:29:48.049,0:29:52.340<br \/>\nlevel thinking or when you go and do<\/p>\n<p>0:29:50.539,0:29:55.450<br \/>\nplanning and when you go and do other<\/p>\n<p>0:29:52.340,0:29:59.029<br \/>\nthings so it&#8217;s also a matter of<\/p>\n<p>0:29:55.450,0:30:02.539<br \/>\nunderstand a lot of these solutions are<\/p>\n<p>0:29:59.029,0:30:04.249<br \/>\ncoming really out of creativity into<\/p>\n<p>0:30:02.539,0:30:06.979<br \/>\ntrying to solve<\/p>\n<p>0:30:04.249,0:30:09.019<br \/>\nI want problems when I travel when I<\/p>\n<p>0:30:06.979,0:30:11.659<br \/>\nused to travel a lot yeah I check email<\/p>\n<p>0:30:09.019,0:30:14.840<br \/>\non my ax on my phone you know my phone<\/p>\n<p>0:30:11.659,0:30:17.019<br \/>\nwas my main email machine because that<\/p>\n<p>0:30:14.840,0:30:19.700<br \/>\nwas the thing that was with me 24\/7<\/p>\n<p>0:30:17.019,0:30:22.070<br \/>\nsince I don&#8217;t travel that much when I<\/p>\n<p>0:30:19.700,0:30:24.470<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t need it probably if I will start<\/p>\n<p>0:30:22.070,0:30:27.470<br \/>\ntraveling again hopefully not that much<\/p>\n<p>0:30:24.470,0:30:29.119<br \/>\nat least okay I will need to activate an<\/p>\n<p>0:30:27.470,0:30:32.299<br \/>\nemail on the phone because that&#8217;s the<\/p>\n<p>0:30:29.119,0:30:34.639<br \/>\nmain computer for me and that&#8217;s what you<\/p>\n<p>0:30:32.299,0:30:37.460<br \/>\nneed to understand is what is the main<\/p>\n<p>0:30:34.639,0:30:39.889<br \/>\ncomputer and what need to be done in<\/p>\n<p>0:30:37.460,0:30:42.739<br \/>\nthat main computer and what can be done<\/p>\n<p>0:30:39.889,0:30:45.349<br \/>\nin a different way because he otherwise<\/p>\n<p>0:30:42.739,0:30:48.320<br \/>\nyou can you can throw hard work at the<\/p>\n<p>0:30:45.349,0:30:50.779<br \/>\nproblem but if you don&#8217;t think what is<\/p>\n<p>0:30:48.320,0:30:53.479<br \/>\nthe problem and what can be the creative<\/p>\n<p>0:30:50.779,0:30:56.599<br \/>\nsolution to the problem you know throw<\/p>\n<p>0:30:53.479,0:30:59.330<br \/>\nhard word at it will not solve it you<\/p>\n<p>0:30:56.599,0:31:01.309<br \/>\nknow Frances begin saying he had you<\/p>\n<p>0:30:59.330,0:31:02.809<br \/>\nknow the three devices and this device<\/p>\n<p>0:31:01.309,0:31:05.350<br \/>\nhe used for consumption<\/p>\n<p>0:31:02.809,0:31:08.590<br \/>\nand and I<\/p>\n<p>0:31:05.350,0:31:10.870<br \/>\nyou know guarantee that decide that that<\/p>\n<p>0:31:08.590,0:31:13.539<br \/>\ndevice was going to be you know the<\/p>\n<p>0:31:10.870,0:31:16.570<br \/>\nconsumption that the consumption device<\/p>\n<p>0:31:13.539,0:31:19.120<br \/>\nwas in a decision that was made you know<\/p>\n<p>0:31:16.570,0:31:20.980<br \/>\nin a morning oh well I&#8217;m going to go and<\/p>\n<p>0:31:19.120,0:31:23.440<br \/>\nbuy the device and now it is go ahead<\/p>\n<p>0:31:20.980,0:31:25.750<br \/>\nwith just France option you know it&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p>0:31:23.440,0:31:27.639<br \/>\nbeen a problem I would love if Frances<\/p>\n<p>0:31:25.750,0:31:29.529<br \/>\ncan spend a couple of minutes into<\/p>\n<p>0:31:27.639,0:31:33.340<br \/>\nexplaining how do you reach that<\/p>\n<p>0:31:29.529,0:31:35.830<br \/>\nconclusion and I estimate we are going<\/p>\n<p>0:31:33.340,0:31:39.549<br \/>\nto need an episode two on this next week<\/p>\n<p>0:31:35.830,0:31:43.570<br \/>\nbut I will love Frances to go into fine<\/p>\n<p>0:31:39.549,0:31:48.779<br \/>\nyou make that distinction but why trial<\/p>\n<p>0:31:43.570,0:31:48.779<br \/>\nand error that&#8217;s all I have for you<\/p>\n<p>0:31:53.970,0:31:59.139<br \/>\nnothing there&#8217;s nothing wrong with the<\/p>\n<p>0:31:58.090,0:32:00.850<br \/>\nday Morgana<\/p>\n<p>0:31:59.139,0:32:03.850<br \/>\nyou know what I mean and being sort of<\/p>\n<p>0:32:00.850,0:32:05.980<br \/>\nnatural you know I will I will say it as<\/p>\n<p>0:32:03.850,0:32:07.419<br \/>\nwe as we close out you know for me I was<\/p>\n<p>0:32:05.980,0:32:12.190<br \/>\nrecently trying to make the decision<\/p>\n<p>0:32:07.419,0:32:15.009<br \/>\nbetween the using an Android base Lenovo<\/p>\n<p>0:32:12.190,0:32:18.789<br \/>\nyoga book you know which has got this<\/p>\n<p>0:32:15.009,0:32:21.519<br \/>\nreally great handwriting surface and you<\/p>\n<p>0:32:18.789,0:32:24.460<br \/>\nknow haptic keyboard that sort of flips<\/p>\n<p>0:32:21.519,0:32:26.320<br \/>\nbehind the the the screen and becomes a<\/p>\n<p>0:32:24.460,0:32:30.539<br \/>\ntablet and is sort of this hybrid<\/p>\n<p>0:32:26.320,0:32:33.190<br \/>\nbetween a laptop and a tablet device and<\/p>\n<p>0:32:30.539,0:32:35.230<br \/>\nalmost a writing device as well because<\/p>\n<p>0:32:33.190,0:32:37.629<br \/>\nit does all of these great you know<\/p>\n<p>0:32:35.230,0:32:40.720<br \/>\ncapable of drawing and whatnot but at<\/p>\n<p>0:32:37.629,0:32:44.200<br \/>\nthe end of the day I recognized that you<\/p>\n<p>0:32:40.720,0:32:45.250<br \/>\nknow my needs in terms of software were<\/p>\n<p>0:32:44.200,0:32:48.009<br \/>\nvery different<\/p>\n<p>0:32:45.250,0:32:49.929<br \/>\nyou know if I were maybe more artistic<\/p>\n<p>0:32:48.009,0:32:51.970<br \/>\nyou know I did did some kind of visual<\/p>\n<p>0:32:49.929,0:32:55.120<br \/>\narts work where I where I was actually<\/p>\n<p>0:32:51.970,0:32:57.149<br \/>\ndrawing and sketching a lot maybe it<\/p>\n<p>0:32:55.120,0:33:00.129<br \/>\nmight have pushed me in that direction<\/p>\n<p>0:32:57.149,0:33:03.039<br \/>\nbut the kind of work that I do you know<\/p>\n<p>0:33:00.129,0:33:06.990<br \/>\nI I recognize that the that the tablet<\/p>\n<p>0:33:03.039,0:33:10.269<br \/>\nwas really going to serve me better and<\/p>\n<p>0:33:06.990,0:33:14.019<br \/>\nlimited make sure that you understand<\/p>\n<p>0:33:10.269,0:33:15.970<br \/>\nthis limited my functionality so that I<\/p>\n<p>0:33:14.019,0:33:18.100<br \/>\ncould be more productive again it<\/p>\n<p>0:33:15.970,0:33:18.909<br \/>\nallowed me to focus the what did I need<\/p>\n<p>0:33:18.100,0:33:21.759<br \/>\nto do on this<\/p>\n<p>0:33:18.909,0:33:25.749<br \/>\ntop in order to get things done and it<\/p>\n<p>0:33:21.759,0:33:28.330<br \/>\nwasn&#8217;t you know having a Wacom based you<\/p>\n<p>0:33:25.749,0:33:31.419<br \/>\nknow fun little tablet drawing tool<\/p>\n<p>0:33:28.330,0:33:33.549<br \/>\nbuilt into my Lenovo yoga book and I was<\/p>\n<p>0:33:31.419,0:33:34.869<br \/>\ngetting it because it was going it was I<\/p>\n<p>0:33:33.549,0:33:37.090<br \/>\nwas gonna play around with it and I<\/p>\n<p>0:33:34.869,0:33:39.159<br \/>\nrecognized that doodling during a<\/p>\n<p>0:33:37.090,0:33:41.139<br \/>\nmeeting isn&#8217;t something that I need or<\/p>\n<p>0:33:39.159,0:33:42.879<br \/>\nwant to do and I know that&#8217;s something<\/p>\n<p>0:33:41.139,0:33:44.499<br \/>\nthat people do and I get the people<\/p>\n<p>0:33:42.879,0:33:46.299<br \/>\ndoodle while they&#8217;re on conference calls<\/p>\n<p>0:33:44.499,0:33:48.369<br \/>\nthey doodle while they&#8217;re in meetings I<\/p>\n<p>0:33:46.299,0:33:49.779<br \/>\ndon&#8217;t do that and I don&#8217;t want to<\/p>\n<p>0:33:48.369,0:33:51.519<br \/>\nencourage myself to do that<\/p>\n<p>0:33:49.779,0:33:53.590<br \/>\nbecause I take notes in order to focus<\/p>\n<p>0:33:51.519,0:33:56.889<br \/>\nand so I actually made the conscious<\/p>\n<p>0:33:53.590,0:33:59.139<br \/>\ndecision to not get something that was<\/p>\n<p>0:33:56.889,0:34:00.820<br \/>\ngoing to be more distracting than not in<\/p>\n<p>0:33:59.139,0:34:01.960<br \/>\nterms of hardware because I knew that I<\/p>\n<p>0:34:00.820,0:34:04.659<br \/>\nwant to play with it you know it has<\/p>\n<p>0:34:01.960,0:34:07.119<br \/>\nthis really great flippin tool piece<\/p>\n<p>0:34:04.659,0:34:09.099<br \/>\nthat sort of cradles the device back and<\/p>\n<p>0:34:07.119,0:34:10.690<br \/>\nforth the hinges the device back and<\/p>\n<p>0:34:09.099,0:34:11.980<br \/>\nforth and I was like you know what I&#8217;m<\/p>\n<p>0:34:10.690,0:34:14.020<br \/>\ngonna play with that I&#8217;m gonna play with<\/p>\n<p>0:34:11.980,0:34:16.240<br \/>\nit until it breaks you know and so I<\/p>\n<p>0:34:14.020,0:34:17.470<br \/>\njust chose chose not to so as you&#8217;re<\/p>\n<p>0:34:16.240,0:34:19.839<br \/>\ngoing forward with making these<\/p>\n<p>0:34:17.470,0:34:21.099<br \/>\ndecisions recognize that you know make<\/p>\n<p>0:34:19.839,0:34:23.529<br \/>\nsure that you&#8217;re buying technology<\/p>\n<p>0:34:21.099,0:34:25.629<br \/>\nthat&#8217;s gonna suit the functionality and<\/p>\n<p>0:34:23.529,0:34:27.549<br \/>\nand and what you need to get done as<\/p>\n<p>0:34:25.629,0:34:29.649<br \/>\nopposed to what might actually create<\/p>\n<p>0:34:27.549,0:34:32.429<br \/>\nand cause distractions so you&#8217;re<\/p>\n<p>0:34:29.649,0:34:37.029<br \/>\nadvising us to actually get a stuff done<\/p>\n<p>0:34:32.429,0:34:37.029<br \/>\n[Laughter]<\/p>\n<p>0:34:37.829,0:34:43.419<br \/>\nwell this has been fantastic and this<\/p>\n<p>0:34:41.109,0:34:45.190<br \/>\nhas been another
