Sylvain Galineau is not happy about web developers caring about the Retina MacBook Pro:
To show they understand the risks of a -webkit monoculture, developers now working hard to optimize sites for the .1% with Retina Macbooks.1
This is not the first, nor will it be the last, off-hand remark where one web developer berates others for targeting the Retina MacBook Pro. In my not so humble opinion, this is crap.
Yes it would be stupid to invest a lot of time and effort in the Retina MacBook Pro, if it was just an odd curiosity that would make no lasting impression on the computer business, but it is likely not. Look at the iPhone, look at the iPad, look at the MacBook Airs. They all had a lot of critics and doubters early on, it seemed dumb to focus on them in one way or the other, but look where we are now. Touch-screen smartphone, tablet computers and ”ultra book”2 laptops are the hottest thing since sliced bread. Why is it so likely that the same will not happen with high resolution laptop (and eventually even desktop) screens?
Or if that doesn’t convince you, look at the pc itself. Resolution has slowly increased, screens has gotten better and crisper. Why wouldn’t these improvements continue to happen? Maybe the Retina MacBook Pro will fail, but progress will still happen. Possibly not as fast, but inevitably it will.
Let’s just take another look at yesterday’s post by Gruber:
But now this. The 15-inch MacBook Pro With Retina Display. This is a boom. A revolution in resolution. The display I’ve been craving ever since I first saw high-resolution laser printer output.3
Ah, so you say Gruber, and everybody else who praise the display, is just a fanboy? How about Matt Mullenweg?
John Gruber has a great essay on the paradigm shift (yes I just said that) of the Retina Macbook Pro. Highly recommended.4
If we’d never target new up and coming technology, why would anyone ever have started using web standards, semantic HTML, CSS? Why didn’t everyone settle for Microsoft Internet Explorer 4?

as far as i’m concerned, the most powerful feminist can do WHATEVER SHE WANTS.
THAT IS WHAT DEFINES A TRUE FEMINIST.
this includes: wearing heels, wearing combat boots, wearing nothing, sporting lipstick, shaving, not shaving, waxing, not waxing, being political, being apolitical, having a job, being homeless, gazing at men, gazing at women, gazing at porn of all sorts, glamming up like a drag queen, going in man-drag, being in a five-way polyamorous relationship, being childless, being a stay-at-home parent, being single, having a wife, having a husband, and gazing/cooing adoringly at those that wives or husbands anywhere they fucking choose, including elevators, restaurants, puppet shows (well, maybe keep it g-rated if there are small children present), ….or on theatrical stages at fringe festivals. are we getting the picture here?? the most powerful feminist can do WHATEVER SHE WANTS. the minute you believe you’re a “bad feminist” because you said the wrong thing/wore the wrong thing/got married/chose to have children…or otherwise broke some unspecified ”code of feminism”: DON’T BUY IT. THERE ISN’T ONE. you can do ANYTHING YOU WANT. ANYTHING. THAT’S THE POINT.1
I agree wholeheartedly, except I just want to point out that a feminist doesn’t have to be a woman. It can also be a man, or someone who doesn’t want to identify with either gender. Any human being should be able to be whoever he/she/it likes.

Netflix is announcing that its streaming movie and TV service is on its way to Norway, Denmark, Sweden, and Finland before the end of 2012, joining the US, Canada, the UK and Ireland, and 47 countries in Latin America.1
”This changes everything”, so to speak.
Maybe not everything, but it’s definitely an important step toward a better home media setup. I’ve previously written about my love for the Plex Media Server and how it transformed watching movies I own into something much more enjoyable. Netflix plus a Roku or and AppleTV might do the same thing for movies I don’t ”need” to own, but want to watch. (Hello Predator marathon!)

Today’s Daring Fireball post on the Retina MacBook Pro is really Gruber at his best. A long, but succinct post with lots of his personality poured into it.
