I kind of feel like I should have just left to fear and left the show because we got so awesome feedback about how not only how great she was but how much better she was than me.

But unfortunately you guys are stuck with me this week.

Alright let's start with some follow up and Bradley Davis writes in with regard to hard to hit up down arrow keys on the new MacBook Pros.

The bottom key row of the new MacBooks is shorter than the previous generation. The bottom row used to be taller than all the other rows. Now it's the same height huge loss in my opinion, especially as a programmer who uses modifier keys more than your average person.

I didn't even believe this so I measured it at work and he is totally right. Did you guys both realize that in the right up until the 2016 2017's on the MacBook Pros, the like the space bar and that whole row was taller than all the other rows of keys.

Nope.

Now I'm curious. Hold on.

I thought it's plausible but it can't be that much bigger so I measured it. It's appreciably bigger.

I was using the side of a credit card or whatever but you can get a ruler and see how much bigger it's at least like 5% bigger.

Hold on. I don't know if I believe this at all. Let me get out my behemoth of a work like this.

So while you guys get out things to measure, the reason this is relevant is not so much that it's hard.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, what are we getting out to measure?

I'm getting out a digital caliper. What are you getting out to measure?

Never mind.

Wow, this feels like a little bit taller.

Oh, it is. So they're saying the reason it makes a difference is not because it's easier to hit the space bar or the command key or anything but because the arrow keys.

Oh, yeah, it's a huge difference.

The up and down arrow keys are jammed into a single key space and I was complaining.

I felt it was a little bit harder to hit the up and figure out the up and down arrow keys and the new MacBook Pros, even though it's like the same layout.

It is the same layout but with the taller keys, each half the top half and the bottom half are bigger.

So it makes a difference, particularly for the arrow keys.

Yeah, so the height of the command key and my 2015 is 17.8 millimeters and then the height of the keys and the row above it are only 15.2.
