In ATP episode 108<\/a>, John Siracusa is on fire regarding the new MacBook’s layered battery.<\/p>\n

Listen from 47:30 to 48:35:<\/p>\n

You know what else would give you more room for battery, Phil? Stop tapering the damn thing! It’s barely tapered as it is, you’re just torturing yourself. It’s barely a wedge, all you are doing is making your own life worse. If you made this thing the same thickness from front to back, think of how much more battery... it’s not like an insignificant amount of battery. The batteries inside of this are so slim and so skinny and so tiny, that not tapering it could give you like 30-40% more battery!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n", "summary": "In ATP episode 108, John Siracusa is on fire regarding the new MacBook’s layered battery", "date_published": "2015-03-16T15:39:25+03:00", "date_modified": "2023-10-18T23:03:27+03:00", "tags": [ "ATP", "podcasts", "quotes" ], "_date_published_rfc2822": "Mon, 16 Mar 2015 15:39:25 +0300", "_rss_guid_is_permalink": "false", "_rss_guid": "200", "_rss_enclosures": [ { "url": "http:\/\/traffic.libsyn.com\/atpfm\/atp108.mp3?download=true", "type": "audio\/mpeg", "length": "" } ], "_e2_data": { "is_favourite": false, "links_required": [ "jquery\/jquery.js", "jouele\/jouele.css", "jouele\/jouele.js" ], "og_images": [] } }, { "id": "155", "url": "https:\/\/ilyabirman.net\/meanwhile\/all\/john-siracusa-on-vinyl\/", "title": "John Siracusa on vinyl", "content_html": "

John Siracusa’s meticulous explanations of the obvious (to you) things are charming. The latest one I took a great pleasure listening to, is on vinyl vs CD in the episode 60 of ATP<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Marco Arment and John Siracusa both ended their podcasts this winter. I was a fan, these were actually the two best podcasts out there. Turns out, the guys could not live too long without podcasting. Even better, now they are doing a podcast together: the Accidental Tech Podcast<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You cannot not love Siracusa’s “explanations”. Here’s the previous episode, listen the explanation about skeuomorphism and leather stitching from 1:18:05 (just after the song):<\/p>\n
