Re: In Nomine Jobs, et Woz, et Spiritus Schiller
But there’s also the sad, sorry bastards like me. The laity. The “Power Users.”
I’ve lived on a Mac every day since January of nineteen hundred and eighty-seven, and I know how to make this thing do some shit that would curl your hair. But, I’m NOT a developer. Not by any stretch of the imagination. I don’t know an NSWhateverTheFuck from a Nib from a .plist from a .DS_Store. No idea. And THAT’s how I likes it…
I put a giant spoiler, a cold air intake, and a turbocharger kit from eBay on my CIvic, but I don’t know about timing, compression ratios, or how to check my oil.
Running a few apps doesn’t make someone a “Power User” any more than a Type R badge makes someone an expert driver.
Also: who makes any significant change to their system when they’re on a deadline? A fool.
