Somebody pointed out to us, shoot, I don't know if I can find that tweet recently. Oh, here we go. Tom Bullock writes, regarding third-party Mac monitors from last week's show, it would have been wild to see all of our reactions in 2016 or so to find out that the year when the dam would break on third-party 5K displays would be 2024 and 2025.

Someday, I hope there's a good story about what took them 10 years.

It's very good. Anyways, I digress. So, Allison writes in with regard to the ViewSonic VP2788-5K. Such great names. This is a 27-inch 5K, same resolution as the ones you're used to. This has display HDR 400, which goes up to 500 nits. 99% DCI-P3. It has HDMI 2.1 display port, two Thunderbolt 4 at 100 watts, two USB-A, two USB-C at 15 watts, a height-adjustable stand, internal speakers.

I do, too. All right. Apparently, fast directory sizing does exist. Remind me or jump in when you're ready. But we had talked about how APFS has the ability to very, very quickly figure out the size of a directory. But then there were a bunch of caveats. We thought that it wasn't actually implemented. But maybe it is.

David Ronquist writes with regard to sample code. In ATP episode 618, John talked about accessing past versions of Apple sample code. As John points out, the download is always the latest version of the code, but Apple also has a history of past releases. So you can go back to match a WWDC video from two years ago or look at the diff to see what's changed.

Some sample code like Backyard Birds and the Food Truck apps are also available in GitHub and have history there. So you can see this on GitHub. We'll link to those repos.

Uh, Joe Beninato writes, here's a pretty amazing video of an iPhone 16 pro upgrade from 128 gigs to one terabyte. Uh, Joe had linked a threads post to tweet, whatever you want to call it. Skeet. I don't know. What are we calling it these days? Um, but I also found what appears to be a YouTube version of it as well. It might be a mirror. I don't know which one came first.

Uh, but we'll put both of them in the show notes. This was fascinating and a ton of work. for something you could just have Apple do on your behalf. And I understand that it's expensive as crap, but this looked like hours of work to do this upgrade, but still fascinating.

All right. And then finally, I wanted to call attention to a podcast that I think aired a week, maybe two weeks ago. I'm going to, or my American will be showing, and I apologize to everyone who's listening across the pond, but apparently there exists a podcast called Table Manners with Jesse and Lenny Ware. I haven't a clue who these people are.
