wwdc
Ummmm…..
It’s the first time I’ve really taken note, but can someone with more experience say whether all major announcements come in the first keynote address, because some updates to messaging, photos, watch and tv wasn’t really what I was hoping for….

No hardware or technologies that would impact ProApps it would seem.
Siri integration into FCPX might be interesting though. -
Really very disappointing for pro users then – can’t say the ability to add easily searchable emojis or written messages is going to help with work.
I suppose Siri with fcpx could work – asking for automation of imports etc.

WWDC is the Worldwide Developers Conference, and the real audience is ostensibly people who write software that runs in Apple’s ecosystem. It’s a nice peek at the technologies that will be under the hood in future OS releases, but I don’t think we ever expect updates relating to pro hardware (unless it’s going to be radically different) or pro apps from this conference.

Just wanted to add in a big FU to Apple. That Pro computer? Hasn’t been updated in 3 years!
And is still the same price as 3 years ago!I call that getting swindled and pimped. I call that getting tricked by business.
With Final Cut X, Apple invited Pro video users to exit the platform. Some of us have been hanging on but this looks like a sillier decision every day.

Ok – I must have been paying too much attention to Mac rumours and similar sites – seemed like a new MacBook Pro was coming soon.
I thought it was wwdc when the last Mac Pro update came though? Maybe not.

It was. But did that ever really make sense? What does a refreshed pro computer have to do with developers?

I Suppose when you put it like that it doesn’t make too much sense really. I think the rumour sites haven’t helped and overdue updates make people expect something to come. Is it September when hardware is announced usually then?

Moore’s law has slowed to a crawl and there haven’t been significant enough GPU updates until now. I think that’s what the holdup was.

The “Memories” feature folded into iOS was kinda intriguing… basically content aware auto-edit. Wonder if that tech will ever trickle up (or is it down) to FCPX?

In case no one noticed, it appears macOS Sierra will require 2010 machines and newer. This excludes those on 2009 or earlier Mac Pros. I wonder if the next version of X will require Sierra.
