ARM powered PCs, Google vs Amazon, and Messenger Kids

This week, Dieter Bohn runs the show with Paul Miller and Natt Garun, and it's been a wild week of news. Amazon and Google are basically feuding right now: Google is pulling YouTube from the FireTV so the podcast trio ponders what this frightening predicament means for the streaming and the open web. Also, Microsoft launched some ARM-powered Windows 10 PCs, so you bet these tech luminaries are going to talk about it. There’s lots more in between that, like Paul’s weekly segment (say it with me) “Color me surprised,” so listen to it all and you’ll get it all. 05:00 - Microsoft launches ARM-powered Windows 10 PCs with ‘all-day’ battery life 17:44 - Qualcomm announces the Snapdragon 845 processor 22:40 - How Messenger Kids takes more from families than it gives them 30:17 - Google and Amazon are punishing their own customers in a bitter feud 40:27 - DeepMind’s AI became a superhuman chess player in a few hours, just for fun 44:21 - Major airlines are about to ban ‘smart luggage’ 49:45 - Paul’s weekly segment “Color me surprised” 52:06 - Instagram is testing Direct, a standalone messaging app that replaces the current inbox 54:57 - Apple's had a shockingly bad week of software problems 1:00:22 - Bitcoin hits $15,000 1:04:01 - CryptoKitties Learn more about your ad choices.
