Somewhat OT: Why Adobe Can’t be Stopped

[Steve Connor]

[andy patterson] “[Tom Sefton] “can everyone stop saying paradigm.”

What would you prefer us to say?
“

I think he wants us to shift away from Paradigm 🙂

[Andrew Kimery]

[Steve Connor] “I think he wants us to shift away from Paradigm :)”

So not saying paradigm is the new paradigm?

CS 4.0 and 5.5. were pretty much bug free. The CC does have more bugs but even FCPX and DR have bugs. Some of the bugs I found in Premiere Pro may not affect the Mac OS. Most of the bugs in Premiere Pro are quirky and don’t crash the computer. Also most people will not use the effects that have the bugs. That is why I asked what bugs have you found? People have found bugs that don’t affect me at all.

CS 5.5 worked great. Once Open CL support was added to the Mercury Playback Engine the bugs came out on the Windows side. Adobe should use CUDA or Open CL but not both.

Crappy doggeral alert!

On the Paradigm!

What’s in a word?
The Bard could have writ
that it vexes your spirit so?

It’s nought but a frippery
pure serendipity
that it’s stuck in your craw so deep.

I might choose it or use it
whilst you still eschews it
and it sure shouldn’t cause you such strife

It’s inconsequential
and really non-sense-ical
to worry about this so much.

So:

If we simply agree to stop typing that word
rejecting said “paradigm” –
are you willing to gift us
twenty cents compensation?
– perhaps as …

a nice pair of dimes?

Break over – back to work!

Wouldn’t that still be another paradigm shift? Paradigms shifts are your friend : )

I think Brets point is important here.

Video editing was for a LONG time a relatively rare skill confined almost exclusively to people who could gain access to expensive hardware and engineering support.

Now it’s just not.

It’s becoming the lingua franca of a new generation. My content feeds are now AWASH in video the same way my life became awash in audio during radio’s heyday, then awash with text when I initially got on-line decades ago – and could read things written anywhere on the planet instantly.

When the stream changes from rarified to ubiquitous – you have to change your thinking.
Especially when what’s changing is that the ability to send is gaining parity with the ability to receive.

These are NEW challenges. And I seriously DON’T think that responding to them with the same behaviors that worked BEFORE the change – is going to work very well in the long run.

My 2 cents.
