The banter about reading habits and the absurdity of holding a book while listening to an audiobook adds a comedic layer to their tech discussion, making it relatable and funny.
“… on your mind? Thanks for your kind words. Sure. So I was listening to one of your episodes recently, and you were talking with someone about the Kindle Direct Publishing, which inspired me to think, I have a colleague and we have written a workbook and have been printing it, photocopying it, having it shrunk wrap, the hard copy kind of version. What's the workbook about? We created a workbook to work with men who are perpetrators of domestic violence. Oh, wow. Okay, that's heavy. So it's a very personal thing. So it's not something that you want sitting in a Google Doc. So we've opted to go …”

So it's not something that you want sitting in a Google Doc. So we've opted to go with kind of the old tech of printing it on paper. But if there is a platform or a way to do this electronically, kind of the idea of what you were talking about with the Kindle Direct Publishing, that would allow somebody to download it and either write in it electronically, or they could print it out and write in it with a pen or a pencil, but also …”

The frustration stems from feeling betrayed by a product designed to replace permanence, as users are now being forced to upgrade despite years of faithful use. A simple solution of providing new devices could have turned this controversy into a positive PR opportunity for Amazon.
“… I stomped on his couch. Fuck his couch. Boys, Chinnikov is nasty. You mean Gensel? Okay, so this is what we talked about in the group chat. Ben Kindle wearing 81, which looks like Phil Kessel, and Chinnikov wearing 59 looks exactly like Jake Gensel. It's very confusing to me. Although it's probably maybe a good sign. We have the new Kessel and the new Gensel. chinikov's on a 40 goal pace in pittsburgh kessel's a little bit more removed than than genzel right and also kessel's probably about 40 pounds heavier than kindle so the the chinikov no offense phil kessel he was a little he was thick …”

“… that was to hang a USB battery in it. And like, I bet that this battery would run that thing for like four months, as little power as it draws. My Kindle, I have not, I read my Kindle every night. Sometimes only, I usually only make it 10, 15 minutes before I fall asleep, but yeah, I haven't charged my Kindle in like six months or something. And I just noticed it was, it was down to like 40% the other day, but still that's like six months of Kindle usage. So yes. And that's with a backlight. So I think like a non backlight E Ink screen would probably go for ever. Do you put your Kindle on, um, …”
“… If you want to feel like it's still being put to use, maybe I should use it for like a project.

And like, I bet that this battery would run that thing for like four months, as little power as it draws. My Kindle, I have not, I read my Kindle every night.

I should, I should point out it's always an airplane mode unless I need to sync to it because the battery lasts so much longer. Gotcha. And also this is a topic for another time, but Amazon has gotten incredibly aggressive about pushing auto updates to that thing. I, I almost always just read on my phone or my iPad now really. …”

“… on my phone now where I can read my things. I also had it do some features that Pocket didn't have. Like what? So one of them is it can sync with my Kindle Highlights. That's a feature that I cloned from Readwise, another one of these read it later apps. And just this morning, I was like thinking about this app. And I was like, oh, I wish that it had like a read this out loud to me feature. And so I asked Claude, could you add like a text to speech engine on top of this app so that every time I save an article, if I go in later and I'm on my phone or I'm on the move or I'm doing something, I can …”
“… sad that this app is going away. And I want to build my own version, go. And it just did it. It built me a working Pocket clone. It is called Stash. And it does all of the things that Pocket used to do. It has a Chrome extension. I have a mobile app on my phone now where I can read my things. I also had it do some features that Pocket didn't have. Like what? So one of them is it can sync with my Kindle Highlights.
