Sad to see it go
I hate tech journalism. It can be so vapid, a circle-jerk of wanna-be techies salivating over new tech or foaming at the mouth about this or that latest gossip. It's all the worst of the tabloids.

If there's no substance, then they spend maybe 5 minutes on it. If I wanted the same drivel as Hacker News, I'd read Hacker News. I don't, so I listen to this podcast. Its duration, content, and hosts are always excellent. My only hope is that more tech journalism finds this voice as Walt retires.Read full review »
