18 months ago I wrote about the state of iOS 7: iOS7 should be an enormous embarrassment for Apple management. They set a timeline that pushed iOS7 out half-baked and I hope they regret that decision. I still have bad memories about iOS 7 that make me second guess every iOS update. A bad taste still lingers as I watch the Apple announcements. However bad iOS 7 was, iOS 9 gives me tremendous satisfaction for sticking with it.

The You Are Not So Smart podcast is one of the best things I listen to each week. It literally makes me a better person. I don’t think my enjoyment of episode 58 is purely based on confirmation bias but it was really a terrific episode. There’s in-depth discussion of what it takes for there to be social backlash against a new technology and how we can predict where the next upheaval will come from.
