The USB Situation

I write this from the latest MacBook Pro. I’ve been running this as my primary machine for almost a month. When I’m not grinding out the latest soon-to-be-released I-swear-I-am-on-schedule book in a coffee shop, I sit at my desk and plug the MacBook into a Studio Display. This braided black cable does it all: video, power, and everything else plugged into the Display.

One cable. A Thunderbolt cable

Quotes by Michael Lopp  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“My definition of a great manager is someone with whom you can make a connection no matter where you sit in the organization chart.”
Michael Lopp, Managing Humans: Biting and Humorous Tales of a Software Engineering Manager

“The moment I walk into a bookstore, I remember what I love about them. They are an oasis of intellectual calm. Perhaps it’s the potential of all the ideas hidden behind those delicious covers. Or perhaps it’s the social reverence for the library-like quiet. You don’t yell in a bookstore; you’ll piss off the books.”
Michael Lopp, Being Geek: The Software Developer's Career Handbook

“The rule is simple: if you don’t write it down, it never happened.”
Michael Lopp
