Maniacal Rage @maniacalrage - Tumblr Blog

Karbon Based is the internet home of Garrett Murray. Garrett is the Founder and Creative Director of Karbon, an iOS design and development agency located in Portland, Oregon. His current interests include mechanical keyboards, video games, technology and photography.

After nearly 18 years, I'm retiring Maniacal Rage. It was a good run. I've decided to start over, and my new home on the internet will be Karbon Based. Head over there if you're interested.

This website will remain for as long as Tumblr exists (which, based on the whole Verizon/Yahoo! thing might not be too long), but will no longer be updated. Thanks for reading all these years, here's hoping you follow me over to the new spot.

The Fallen of World War II

An astounding 18-minute piece showing the human impact of World War II and other wars. I knew most of these statistics, but seeing them in this way was heartbreaking and terrifying. You should watch this.

When you're done, go give Neil some money to support this spectacular work. I'm very much looking forward to future episodes. (via kottke)

I've got a question: How much do I have to pay Tumblr to never see this garbage again on the top of every single page in my Dashboard? Also, I guess, for "FOB": Have you considered enunciating even a single word in your terrible, terrible songs? Thanks!

Garrett and Shawn watch Bastian try to solve his deep psychological problems via a depressing adventure of sadness. If the story never ends, how come this podcast is only an hour long?

A beloved film from our childhoods, which holds up surprisingly well even with all of its exposition and weird 4th- and 5th-wall shenanigans. That poor, poor, depressed horse. Subscribe to our podcast, it's fun! (If you use Overcast on iOS, here's a handy quick link to the show there for easy subscription.)

Photojojo: Disposable Camera

A constant refrain when discussing iOS app ideas is that every market is completely saturated and it's impossible to build something new. I've been guilty of this myself many times. Think about the camera/photography market in the App Store—it's completely packed with a million apps, most of which do the same thing. That doesn't mean you can't build something, it just means your app needs to be better or more interesting than everything else.

A perfect example is this new app from Photojojo, which emulates the forgotten experience of using a disposable digital camera. It combines the simple iOS app idea with a physical product and it's a terrific concept. I haven't used it yet myself, but I'm going to give it a shot soon. Apps like this make me excited to build new things.

Fore! We discuss the 1980 comedy Caddyshack and the decline of nipples in movies. Fore! (Golf jokes!!)

We're having a problem with this podcast where it's so much fun to do we want to do three episodes a week. We're not going to do that because we want it to be sustainable, but boy it's fun to watch these movies and talk about them. Join in—subscribe!

I forgot to mention it on March 1, but this month we celebrated Karbon's five-year anniversary. This makes me immensely proud.

Could not have done it without @shawnm and @billgriesau who've been working their butts off every day since the beginning. They're the best.

Never know what the future holds, but I know we work hard every day to build quality apps for amazing clients. Gonna try to do it forever.

We love movies. There are a lot of movies we haven’t seen, and some we’d love to see again. Every two weeks we’re going to watch one and talk about it. Join us.

I'm super excited about this new podcast I'm doing with Shawn Morrison called Old Movies Club. We're going to announce each movie a week in advance so you can watch it too, then we're going to discuss it, dissect it, deconstruct it and make jokes about it. Mostly make jokes about it.

For our first episode this week we watched the Spaghetti-Western classic A Fistful of Dollars. We've got mile-long list of all the movies we're planning to watch, so go subscribe already.

Hello Garrett wanted to take you coming from Toyota from you. I did. I had a great news for you regarding your car. Can you please give me a call back at your clothes. Thanks again, have a love. Baby, I love you, we can. Bye bye.

Tom's been using "woot" and I point him to Wikipedia showing how nerdy/ridiculous "woot" is

Tom Watson: Now why did you have to go and ruin the woot for me.

Me: Did you seriously not know that’s where it came from??

Tom Watson: I actually didn’t. I’m not sure how I missed it. Like, why I never researched it or made the connection.

Me: Haha

Tom Watson: Sigh.

Me: That’s amazing.

Tom Watson: It really is.

Me: Good thing it didn’t mean something offensive!

Tom Watson: I know!

Me: Would have been pretty awesome if it meant “Asians suck” and you’ve been going around for 10 years saying, “woot!!!”

Me: People are just silently horrified.

Tom Watson: Seriously.

Tom Watson: Lesson, I should be more careful.

Me: Or, alternate lesson, you should embrace ANYTHING you see without doing any research ever and just see where it takes you.

Me: Could be quite the adventure.

I asked Ive about the slightly protruding camera lens that prevents the iPhone 6 from resting comfortably on its back. Ive referred to that decision—without which the phone would be slightly thicker—as 'a really very pragmatic optimization.' One had to guess at the drama behind the phrase. 'And, yeah . . .' he said.

Jonathan Ive and the Future of Apple - The New Yorker

Even Jony Ive doesn't like the bump, so why on earth did he do it? The phone should have been 1mm thicker. I don't see anything "pragmatic" about this decision, other than saying "we have to make this model thinner so we can say it's thinner, at whatever cost."
