CCATP #729 – John Siracusa on Many Things Including Display Technologies

<p>Our guest this week on Chit Chat Across the Pond is John Siracusa of the <a href ="https://atp.fm/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Accidental Tech Podcast</a>, <a href ="https://www.relay.fm/rd" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reconcilable Differences</a>, and <a href ="https://www.theincomparable.com/robot/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Robot or Not</a>. He’s also the developer of two interesting Mac apps: <a href ="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/front-and-center/id1493996622?mt=12" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Front and Center</a> and <a href ="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/switchglass/id1498546559?mt=12" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SwitchGlass</a>. You can find his blog at <a href ="https://hypercritical.co/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hypercritical.co</a>. You can find him on Twitter <a href ="https://twitter.com/siracusa" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@siracusa</a></p> <p>I've been a fan of John's for a long time but I never knew anything about his background, so I asked him to start at the beginning and explain where he came from. Next I ask him some questions about screen brightness and arrangement of windows that I've heard him talking about and always wanted to investigate his ideas further. </p> <p>Then we get into a super meaty discussion where he explains display technology from LCD to OLED to QD-OLED (or Quantum Dot OLED). </p> <p>John was as delightful as I'd hoped, as knowledgeable as I'd expected and I had a fantastic time with him.</p>
