Marcus Fehn in Ulysses Switches to Subscription:

As of today, we’re changing Ulysses’ payment model. It’s still the same Ulysses, same features, same distribution, we’re just switching to subscription. For $4.99 per month or just $39.99 per year, you can now use Ulysses on all your Macs, iPads and iPhones, including sync. You no longer need to buy two separate versions for either platform – from now on, it’s just Ulysses, and you can use it wherever you want.

Things are not black and white. I don't like subscriptions, but when I use something on a daily basis, asking for 30€ a year is the least I can give.

I can understand that people don't want to have 10 subscriptions. I don't want them either. It's about picking your priorities and choose which ones you really need. Nobody cares about the number of Apps you have installed, it's what you use them for.

If you need more reasonable arguments about why software companies need a regular income, I recommend you to read Why we’re switching Ulysses to Subscription.

I cannot say if it's fake or not. Apple had similar demos and mentioned that object sizes would match the real world in this WWDC session.

I always liked the idea of augmented reality, but never really found an example that I would be using constantly.

AR Measure App changed that:

AR Measure™ turns your phone into a ruler you can use anytime, anywhere. Just point your phone and click a point to measure almost anything. The app uses the power of Augmented Reality to measure the distance between points in 3D space.

Really nice idea and a practical use-case.

Really excellent quote in Continuance Part 1:

… that's what Continuance is all about: the perseverance and commitment between where we are and where we want to be…

I'm just leaving this quote here to hopfulley remind me in a couple of years that my Continuance was the right thing to do.

The phone scared them to death and they wanted to make sure it will not explode! 😀

Timezones are a funny thing. On one side you are the one sleeping in, one the other one you are the early bird you never wanted to be.

There are days I plan to quit Twitter, today was one I was glad I did not. It still opens opertunities to talk to people, no matter what you think about centralized services.

Mozilla in Mozilla Advocacy - Stand up for net neutrality

Net neutrality is the freedom to say, watch and make what we want online without interference from internet service providers. […] The FCC has a plan to destroy net neutrality. It’s up to us to stop it.

You have the choice to support Mozilla here. If you don't, just don't complain later.

Tobias Tom 18th April 2017 at 23:47

I reale like this one. Even if you missed the symmetry a little bit and the colors are quite blurry, but that can be fixed later. Except the black and white ones (which are "easy" to be good looking) this is my favorite from your trip.

There I did it: I did like something and didn't abuse an indie heard. :)

I just found Make Podcasts Searchable and I wasn't sure if we talk about this one before. The transcript looks pretty impressive.

Colloq now also has a blog, and we have the intention to use it to keep you posted on our progress. The first article is available now: Hello World. Hello Colloq.

On April 1st we published our first landing page, for one to put a little more pressure on ourselves and secondly, to get it out there and spread the word.
