We explain how problems are solved to make things more efficient, less frustrating, and more resilient. Along the way you’ll learn techniques that will always be valuable. Rather than simply explaining how things work, we’ll attempt to explain why certain tech exists in the first place, and the problem solving skills that lead to their creation. Title ideas Inspiration Life Tech Functional Tech Creating Tech Reformat 😍 Film Riot analysis Aims to create content while explaining how it’s done and the decisions that get made along the way Mainly driven by Ryan, but regular cast of characters that contribute Two shows per week. One is original content. One is q&a (mail sack) Original content usually involves a specific technique or review. Video that goes with it is creative and usually silly Sponsor break, read live by Ryan or Josh TWiT analysis Done live with guests hosts. Less creative and more of a talk show with an agenda. This is basically a conference call so it requires people who can talk about something for a long time, but they rarely know any more than what’s told to them by press. Not a lot of understanding of how things get made. They make up for surface knowledge by bringing in lots of pundits who can talk things through. More focused on after things are created. Couldn’t work at a tech company because they don’t actually have the skills to create it. Fun Fun Function analysis One show per week “good Monday morning!” Sometimes does extra shows and live streams Focuses a bit more on front end tech and problem solving in that space Has a general goal but is definitely not scripted. More live theater than film. Fresh Air analysis Daily show with “best of” replays when no new content is created. (Could this work on YouTube?) 2-3 main sections consisting of interviews with important people that can speak in detail about a topic. Never pundits. Typically someone who’s a working professional in the topic. Sometimes has a section that reviews upcoming releases. Format Musings Podcast with video component does Spotify support this? Pocket casts does Maybe post videos to Twitter too? Not sure what the length limit is. Could work on Facebook, but don’t really want to support it. Instagram TV? Not necessarily filmed. More visual “accessories” that support the audio. Text transcripts Diagrams and graphics Recorded so these videos can be properly transcribed and edited shoot for 20-30 minutes (commute length) Produced in Seasons GitHub repository with code/doc examples on a raspberry PI Can we get debug output of the various steps? How does this compare on iOS/Android? Season 1 Episode 1 - Connections Chips, sockets, slots, and ATX Episode 2 - The POST What happens when you push a power button Episode 3 - Booting Up How a system knows if it’s Apple, Linux, or Windows Episode 4 - The Format What is a file system and why are they different Episode 5 - Operating (my) System How an OS gets from a blank screen to a beautiful GUI Episode 6 - Memory to Memory RAM vs Hard Drives from the OS perspective Episode 7 - Time to Run Programming runtimes and how they created a platform for creativity Episode 8 - Making things Personal How computers know what you want (registry, user preferences, etc) What will make this interesting is interviews with the creators of this tech. What problems were they trying to solve? Otherwise something like BaseCS might work, where one person is the student and the other is a teacher. Feels like I’m basically creating BaseCS for hardware. 🤔
