Breaking down the results with charts and graphs, thanks to Kieran Healy. “Data Visualization: A Practical Introduction” — Healy’s outstanding introduction to the R programming language and ggplot visualization library. Healy’s also-excellent website. My personal 2021 Apple report card. Keychron Q2 mechanical USB keyboard. My son bought this and swapped out the switches for a set of Zealio V2 62g switches. Rogue Amoeba’s SoundSource and Audio Hijack — two great Mac utilities that can’t exist on iPadOS. Clipboard managers (which also can’t exist on iPadOS): Pastebot. Keyboard Maestro. LaunchBar. Jason Snell: “Why Does the Apple TV Still Exist?” Upgrade: One of Jason’s plethora of podcasts, this one co-hosted with Myke Hurley. Last week’s Upgrade, discussing the 2021 Report Card. Floppy Emu: “a floppy and hard disk emulator for classic Apple II, Macintosh, and Lisa computers. It uses an SD memory card and custom hardware to mimic an Apple floppy disk and drive, or an Apple hard drive.” Amazing work from Steve Chamberlin. Moltz’s “The Terminator” t-shirt design. (It will not be back.) This episode of The Talk Show was edited by Caleb Sexton.
