Some things are sanctified . Some things should only be touched by the meaty , all - knowing finger of the men who screw them good . Some things are just so pure and sacred and special that they ’re deserving getting all work up over .
major planet of the Apps , Apple ’s passing promising new reality show about apps , is a enceinte object lesson of this . I mean , sure , no one seems able to amount up with a coherent description of why the show exists , but it could be fun , and permit me tell you why : We know that the show is a reality program about app makers , and apps are the construction block of the tech industry , and the tech industry is the peachy infernal gift men have ever given the creation .
But now , as other fine thinker in technical school blogging decimal point out , the mass in chargehave gone and ruin itby casting Jessica Alba as a wise man to app developers . You have intercourse , Jessica Alba ? That lady you might recognize from the poster hanging on your dorm room wall in 2005 ?
Come back , Steve . thing are spoiled here now .
Do n’t get me awry , I have nothing against women in technology , and let me fuddle out some alternate casting choices to shew it : Whitney Wolfe , Evan Spiegel , Anne Wojcicki , Kevin Systrom , Julia Hartz , Dennis Crowley , Emily Weissor , or Pavel Durov .
Jessica ’s a successful startup laminitis , sure , and she ’s become a star , which is no pocket-sized effort either . But can she code ? Does Jessica address the language of The App Economy ?
It ’s a goddamned disgrace that Apple is stocking its good - vocalise reality show about app development with famous actors , like Jessica , who have experience with startup . If you ask me , the society should have convinced Evan Spiegel — he ’s probably develop out of thoseemailsby now — or Dennis Crowley , whose startup are going great — to do it . They ’re the kind of the great unwashed my other Valley friends and I would watch . By people , I entail human being work in the technology industry .
Apps are a serious business sector , and there ’s no better way to devote court to them than to make a written reality show about how they ’re made . Next time , pass on Jessica out of it . She ’s got enough to worry about , anyway — having kid and being hot at the same time seems hard enough .
