There have now been 20 major versions since the initial release of Breaking Change, but this is one of the less bad ones. It was substantially improved by friend of the show, Eric Doggett, who helped out with mixing!

I hope you like stories about moaning during a couples massage, bugs with Apple's Home Key system, and when it's OK to duplicate code in software. Because that's most of what I got this time.

Big day: now with transition music! 🎶 There's one topic that's been dominating headlines for the last two weeks, but if you want to hear about it you'll have to look elsewhere!

WWDC came and went and now we're all just left to ponder what life will be like under the thumb of our new AI overlords (and underlords). But at least for now, humans are still allowed to produce podcasts on their own, which means we can safely opine about the fresh hell we're all hard at work creating. I finally got a chance to get to some mailbag questions in this episode! If you want to be a part of the ✨magic🪄, shoot me an e-mail to [email protected]. I won't read your last name on air,...

WWDC is right around the corner, and I wanted to do a predictions podcast before Monday's keynote, but then Mark Gurman went and just read back literally everything that's going to happen.

Please know that your comments and questions really bring me a lot of joy and that you should e-mail whatever pops into your head to...

[Update: if you're reading this, then you're listening to an updated version of this episode with a more aggressive denoise filter, to try to combat the karaoke jingles playing incessantly in the background 🎤.] Welcome to the rhetorical Bemusement Park that is the Breaking Change podcast! This episode was recorded in Japan, the recording of which was an ordeal that you will hear all about if you choose to press play and listen to this version of the podcast. I have failed you all, however,...

Today we have a veritable smorgasboard of potpurri as we indulge in the figurative potluck dinner that is, "shit Justin wants to talk about." This may be the last major version for a while, so savor this. Thank you to listeners who took version 10's mandatory e-mail feedback demand seriously, as the mailbag once again is full of good questions. But you must do your part and e-mail [email protected] to keep it that way. Each e-mail you send entitles you to a license to listen to three more...

It's been over two weeks! Let's catch up. We can talk about anything you want, so long as it's App Store policies regarding "retro" game emulators or where to find the best Japanese love hotels. Also, I hate to spoil an announcement, but due to a lack of mailbag engagement, e-mailing [email protected] after you listen to each episode of the program is now mandatory for all listeners.

If you're itching for a discussion that explains why I'm afraid to move into my new bathroom, what I really think about Andrew Huberman, and why it might make more sense to learn French than Java… prepare to be scratched, I guess? I am highly confident that at least one person will get angry and unfollow this show as a result of words that came out of my mouth.

This podcast is dedicated to the brave men and women at the Department of Justice for taking bold and decisive action against a clear and present danger to the continued existence of the United States of America: Apple's use of green bubbles and how they make some Android users feel bad.

[UPDATE: In this episode, I referenced Stripe having an IPO in the past tense. I was mistaken, they are not (yet) publicly traded. We regret the error.] The audio is better this week! I'm learning. Also, I finally had something to talk about that has nothing to do with Apple! The target of the ion cannon that is my mouth this time? drumroll… it's Stripe! Sorry, Stripe. If you like rants about software quality and the systemic reasons everything is terrible, hoo boy! This one brings the...

Nobody needs to know. Links and so forth: Open AI's...

This podcast is a month old and four episodes in and the singular event looming over all of it has finally arrived! The era of facial computing has begun! Join me for a Vision Pro extravaganza in which I detail all of my first impressions using the device, including dozens of things that seemingly every media and YouTube reviewer missed or excluded. Listen to this podcast and you'll hear tell of bugs you wouldn't believe even if you did see them! The headline takeaway is: Apple Vision is...

Heads up gang, there's a new breaking change with this release: my wallet is like $8000 lighter thanks to the Vision Pro preorders. As always as of a week ago, you can e-mail me at [email protected] and I'll read it silently in my head. If all goes well, I'll read it out loud, too. And everything works out, I may even read it out loud and into a microphone for the next show. Okay, let's dig into this latest version: What's new: I flew a little too close to the sun at Universal...

I finally gave up and recorded a podcast. And now I'm writing show notes. I tried not to let this happen but here I am typing this and it's happening. Forgive me. This is a podcast for anybody who shares my interests and likes passing the time with a friendly, opinionated voice in their head. I have done thousands of hours of chores and errands over the years listening to mostly agreeable, sometimes interesting 1.5-3 hour podcasts to keep my mind busy. Now it's time for me to give back, I...
