Material Design as Fast As Possible

[@bluephreakr]

How about a separate channel to supplement this; As *deep* as possible?

[@acgandhi]

We need to go deeper!

[@WisteriaBerlitz]

bluephreakr my thoughts exactly. +1

[@AshiqHussain-bd7kv]

[@Nekomusu]

OwO

[@erin758]

it has been six years and material design keep on evolving, very nice

[@erin758]

@Steve - any other suggestions?

[@erin758]

@Steve - I like the idea of skeuomorphism, but Material Design isn't all about the "looks." It's a design system that sets standards on typography, color, motion, layout, and so many other things that give users FAMILIAR and USABLE user experience across apps and devices. This is beneficial because you don't have to re-learn how to interact with different apps or websites. Material Design makes things consistent. The problem is that many developers and designers don't know how to implement it correctly. Material Design has changed a lot in five years since its initial release and will continue to improve because design is a never-ending process.

[@xodius80]

yo Linus BRO!, make a video about kernels, like windows, android, etc. thanks!

[@kght222]

interesting thing to ask from ltt, i suppose they could cover the basics. i suspect though that if you know enough that you can connect all of those operating systems back to the constant they all have you probably already know more than a tech quickie would provide, and there are lots of resources available for getting down and dirty with unix.

[@xodius80]

kght222 well, he asked for suggestions so that's what i did.

[@kght222]

MiKE fair enough, doesn't have to be for you =P

[@jangxx]

Neither windows nor android is a kernel :D Windows uses the NT kernel, while android is based on the linux kernel. But I agree, a video on kernels would be interesting.

[@Legion-495]

Yeah. I'm with ya. OS kernels like Linux/GNU-->Unix and so on. I never got how Unix works... just that Linux came from it with some GNU-Software. MAC is Unix like I heared... still no idea.---> Looks like a Linux to me.

[@KeyvanKhademRavandi]

suggestions: Mosfets, diodes, capacitors, chokes & more OR Wattage, amperage, voltage & perhaps ohms? OR VRM & digi+ VRM Please consider one of them :(

[@Timmyfox]

...I read that as "Mosfets, dildoes..."

[@AkilJacob]

***** lol me too

[@L3ON360Z]

Wattage, amps, voltage and resistance is basic physics...

[@KeyvanKhademRavandi]

L3ON360Z thanks for your valuable input....it was just a suggestion. I don't know why you have the urge to make such a comment

[@MentalEdge]

What Linus left out is why we have design philosfies, having a set of rules that a user interface follows is the equivalent of the laws of physics in the real world. It helps the user understand how things work, if different cities had different laws of physics we would have learn how walk in each one, same in software, if all the apps work differently using one app coming from another can be hard.

[@PrivateHash]

Can you make a video about TFT display, IPS, super amoled and the new super amoled that Samsung used in tab S. These are the main points which I'm concerned about: 1. Viewing angles 2. Color range 3. Brightness 4. Battery drain (If it's possible)

[@beebskadoob986]

Hey Linus, I can't wait for the material design overall for the LTT forum!!

[@yellowboi1999]

Malcolm, Ra's is looking for you

[@kght222]

actually "material design" makes me think more of cad and engineering than fashion.

[@nadeemshaikh7863]

It's more about cad and engineering than fashion.

[@AkshayAradhya]

Functionality > Design

[@zinebmhb4980]

I have appreciate your accent and the way you present . You really inspire me . Wish you all the best continue

[@Retrovibes]

Microsoft got it right in terms of mobile OS design. Having little screen estate available, a flat, clean, chromeless and typography-based design is best, with subtle hints of motion like transitions and letter movement. I'm sure Google put a lot of work into this, however the UI is still space inefficient, prone to clutter and based on old, large screen design principles.

[@deneb_tm]

Microsoft did it right? Not using up too much screen space? * cough cough* Windows 8 * cough cough *

[@Felvein]

***** hftyj?

[@TheEpicMusic161]

InfinityCraftLP he's talking about on mobile and windows 8 on mobile is fantastic it just doesn't have many apps.

[@deneb_tm]

TheEpicMusic161 Well, okay. I like Android because there are many apps and because you can customize it a bunch. And the latest version, 5.0 Lollipop, runs very smooth on my Nexus 4, which came out two years ago.

[@deneb_tm]

The Joker Well, Windows doesn't always feel like butter. MacOS also has a lot of animation and overall seems very smooth, but I prefer Windows.

[@littlelamp100]

"an eclectic collection of random functionalities all bolted together and then stuck into your pocket" that is... honestly the most accurate description of android that I think I've heard from my experience lol

[@Shackleford_Rusty]

This video was pretty good, I had a very vague idea of what exactly Matias Duarte was talking about in regards to material design, so this video helped a lot.

[@ExEBoss]

This video was more informative than all videos on the subject by Google Design combined.

[@Sealerrage]

I would like to know more about this. Requesting part two.

[@fear_less_2020]

Techquickie is the best!! Fast and easily explained. I am subscribing.

[@SoshiroGames]

Techquickie Is there going to be a more in depth explanation any time soon? this peeked my interest and i'd love to hear more :)

[@JWPrattKS]

I am trying to make a wallpaper for my phone which is running lollipop. This video helped me get the info I needed to proceed. Thanks!

[@jonathanrudy1052]

But linus you DO script your videos and you DO read it all from a teleprompter! You're just damn good at it! :D great vid!!

[@GWT1m0]

Android FTW

[@fsxaircanada01]

***** What the fuck does that has to do with anything?

[@GWT1m0]

Helium Oh shit, wrong comment

[@bno112300]

I wish the colours on phones were handled in the same way that xterm handles colours, by having a specific list of colours that something is, and the user can change what actual colour they see. Like, if I want all of my teal to show up as yellow, I can. Not for everything obviously, but major UI stuff.

[@NonsensicalSpudz]

its going to be great as years go by as the design gets more fluid and uniform with the system

[@alexosow]

The first comment.

[@alexosow]

And yes it did get better

[@JETBLACKPRIEST]

Would you guys be able to do an episode on highs, lows and mids in audio terms?

[@rickstockton6382]

This was great. I had no idea what Material Design was, and I had just watched a video about it. Thanks!

[@myrmeko]

I really like the material design. It is all clean and simple, but stylish at the same time.

[@rhebucks_zh]

Look at Material You.

[@myrmeko]

@@rhebucks_zh No thanks. That's not material design. It's just flat colors and overly simplified shapes. True material design was back in Android 5.1 when there were visibly "stacked" materials. Simple, attractive, yet still usable. Material You threw away all usability for the sake of style.

[@rhebucks_zh]

@@myrmekoI told you to look at it to see how it turned to trash.

[@myrmeko]

@@rhebucks_zh Ah, ok. 😂

[@grantsiders1680]

Not just for app design! Polymer is Google's web framework for material design! I use it for my portfolio design on my website!

[@Jarl_69]

At the end of the day, All material design is for is to make newer devices look different from older ones without material design so people shell out the $ for a new phone or tablet...

[@ThomasVanhelden]

Yes, that's pretty much how post-fordism works and how companies make money....

[@antonstengel8974]

Or its because the majority thinks it looks better and it is more logical and more modern...

[@michelvanbriemen3459]

Anton Stengel That's not why Google came up with Material Design. That's what makes people splash some cash on a new phone, which is what Google is after. They wouldn't stand as good a chance of successfully recieving that money if they didn't promote themselves as forward-thinkers. Business isn't about your feelings. It's about your $.

[@Armadurapersonal]

Michel van Briemen This is not Apple, you can have the latest android on pretty much any device if you flash it with a 3rd party room.

[@Jarl_69]

Aleksandr Kamarov On the contrary, a far greater percentage of iOS devices run on the latest version as compared to android.

[@matt-g-recovers]

Seems like Material design has grown to include many web and mobile sites or apps. It does look almost like it is a language all it's own/

[@amiramduby]

This video actually taught me a lot. Thanks!

[@CCH5]

Linus, please dedicate a video on explaining Glare vs. Anti-Glare, maybe even Matte screens for laptops.

[@OfficerBaron]

Have you thought of a second camera angle instead of always cropping the existing one?

[@maxbrazil3712]

Microsoft invented flat design in the late 80's for Windows 2.0. Look how far we've "progressed".

[@DeeJayBanana44]

Flat design is cheap and sucks.

[@barnacles1352]

DeeJayBanana they are changing to fluid design

[@JakeSmith-fz9fp]

Microsoft did not invent flat design. Flat was invented by designers who wanted to simplify their work by creating a simple yet beautiful design. First concepts of flat design were hated and I am sure you hate it because it is still trendy to hate it. Well, the first conceptions were indeed bad, because they were slowing navigation. But flat design evolved and what we have now is designs like material design.

[@AnimeBeefRandoms]

I already know a lot of the topics that are often covered on this channel but I seem to watch it anyways just because Linus is in them. O.o

[@aspnettest7134]

cant u just add a quicklink to google material design specsheet for users. it ll be much apperciated. thanks

[@sniperkitty3000xx]

It's the little things in life that make me smile.

[@raptor15sc]

Progressive vs Interlaced - as Fast As Possible!

[@SomethingRandomInc]

Interlaced is image is made of lines instead of a full image. The interlacing or combing artifacts can be seen in moving interlaced footage. Since interlaced footage is half the resolution vertically compared with progressive images it was used to lower bandwidth on old TV networks. Progressive video will always look better.

[@StanleyYork]

Why don't you make a series of videos on Material Design on either this or Linus Tech Tips channels?

[@lennonSystems]

Please make a video of 2.4GHz VS 5GHz and explain the differences in it's technology :)

[@Gunsong1]

Finally someone who defined material design in concice terms instead of nebulous "hipster design speak". Now I know where to go from here.

[@Chavez96PR]

Thanks for this videos they are very helpful

[@iliaslef]

0:06 "5.0 lollipop"... oh that's cute

[@martijnoudeophuis6946]

Can we have a techquickie based on SSH, FTP, SCP and VNC.?

[@maxyp03]

great video! the most helpful I've seen!!

[@WyzzyMoon]

Fast as Possible Suggestion: ( but this one shouldn't be fast ) Make a video with " the anatomy of a videocard " And go over everything from GPU naming and chip naming to what memory interface, stream processors and cuda cores are and how they all work in relation to each other. I think that would be helpful for almost everyone and make them understand specs and improvements in newer generations better. That way you would have all the terminology you may encounter with GPU's in one video and you can do further research from there if you want to find out more about specific components.

[@WessonSnyder]

You have pretty yellow hands

[@VarunDewan]

wish you guys did more smartphone abs tablet reviews!

[@preachinglemon]

Solid upload time Linus 10/10 hitting that target audience c:

[@RimvydasMasiukas]

Please do "Flat style design" (vs Material Design) too.

[@Ted1246]

Teleprompers as Fast as Possible. This would be great, in my opinion.

[@operate170]

I really like the UI, it's quite hard to take in at once, but honestly, it's so intuitive for the user that it's really nice for people who do make interfaces for A good OS. The only thing I dislike is how limiting the design feels. It's so easy to look at the lessons on there and look at the example pictures like they're all the same.

[@LKFD.]

Do the video about Microsoft's new design system called "Fluent Design".

[@FLlTTER]

Anyone else notice that Linus' hands are yellow? You can see it when he says "material design" in air quotes. I don't know if it's a side effect of the chroma key or his hands are just like that...

[@BigDonkMongo]

People don't seem to understand that this is a good thing: 1. People who want a more unified and flowing experience can have that. 2. This is android and customization is infinite, you can still have your dark UI's with tron themed animations and SAO bar.

[@quatie]

Hey when is gmail and google calendar going to get the material design for desktop?

[@1Three8Fiver]

Linus can you do one on Open Source and what it is and what you have to do under GNU GPL as an example.

[@Tjlouton]

LMG History as fast as possible

[@goputrooper4474]

+Tyler Louton History is the study of the past................ Simple

[@levisymons208]

Linus it would be amasing if you could make a video on 3d content production workstations, such as how much difference having a dedicated cuda card for rendering in programs like blender is, I am currently a games design student at collage and wonder if shelling out so much money on rendering cards is worth it. Sorry this comment is so long :)

[@4321Rocket]

Next video should be Hashing!!!! Would have been useful a few days ago for my exam.

[@Rymac91]

I'm going to take a guess that Edzel is a fan of Material Design considering how it's been used in some of the LinusTechTips videos and sponsor clips.

[@victorharpe5817]

How about Gaming terms, or something fun

[@C0d0ps]

One thing that I like with Linus/tech channels is that I almost never see those damn bots spamming virus sites about how to get free stuff. Perhaps it's mainly gaming directed, anyways this is great.

[@Metranomik]

I dont get it... The documentation Google provide makes it look really good, i totally agree with the design philosophy and i think the principle is great. Then again, when i look at it on my phone I don't see anything outstanding about it, there are some neat animations on buttons and UI elements... however since they play so fast they are barely noticeable, and all that stuff about realtime shadows and intuitive feel were either marketing crap or are such things are implemented in a way that it is undetectable... The whole update adds very little to the phone, it doesn't feel like a 5.0 it feels like a theme and some bug fixes.

[@antonstengel8974]

I think the animations are very slow and noticeable. If they are too fast and you wanna get a better look you can go into developer options and slow down the animation speed

[@Metranomik]

Anton Stengel Yeah, i think i broke something in the video when i was porting it to my OPO. I had set V-sync to 30fps :D. Using CyannogenMod's port though the animations are quite nice... still feels like a theme as opposed to a version increment.

[@KBWarrioR2018]

Am i the only one to notice Linus throwin out a massive spitball at 2:17 !!! holy shit that was giganstrous!

[@NathansWargames]

aww Linus is finally growing his horns ( look at his hair :D)

[@aastikdubey6422]

I still don't get it is Material Design an API for Android developers from Google ?

[@Unicornlover345]

Linus, can you make a video about Linux? I know a little bit about it but I would like you to explain it.

[@nwimpney]

TL;DR White backgrounds, minimalist icons, and lots of drop shadows.

[@starpravesh]

What is retina display? As fast as possible.

[@powerplayer75]

High resolution to the point where you can't really see the pixels but not more

[@DavidFrostbite]

But when will we get the Material Dark theme? Why google? Why you make everything white?

[@exwhyz33]

It would be a lot easier to grasp Material Design if a series of Before/After examples were shown.

[@forfluf]

Nothing goes over my head, my reflexes are too fast, I would catch it.

[@Vytautas4Xfiles]

Linus... you should have started by saying that "material design" is this video will be about SOFTWARE. I was waiting through the whole video for you to say what "material design" means in the construction of the actual hardware item (that it is meant as a common standard for the electronics industry, or something like that). I got confused watching this video :(( So does this mean that "material design" is for software only?

[@Noi5ee]

in this instant, yes it has nothing to do with hardware, it's just Googles new design philosophy for android software.

[@shamr0ck394]

I NEED HELP i just bought 3 identical 32 inch monitors all 3 monitors running same resoluition witch is 1366x 768 and a 60 hz refresh rate i have a gtx 760 all my monitors are hooked up through hdmi cables with the dvi adapters you need but nividia surround still isnt working i cant figure it out the tvs work but the dont work all together as one big picture is like having 3 desktops that i can move between each one it helps but i wanted to play bf4 on 100 inches of screen plz help if you have any ideas

[@rubel7829]

why this video is default 1.5x faster? can any one help me out

[@PTNLemay]

Lollipop was rather disappointing... It wasn't bad, but it really didn't bring anything special to the table. The only notable thing was that we lost lock-screen widgets, and I loved those.

[@SKSAKIB1]

Material design for the win!!

[@UnrealOG137]

I miss the dark holo non bullshit theme of jelly bean. material design makes it flat and older devices run slower.

[@iftekhar_k]

Please do about windows fluent design

[@theofficialprax8851]

Could you do how data is transfered through a cable

[@johnhammer8668]

I see. Material Desigin is easy to understand while defining what it can not do. The gui elements can grow or shrink but no pass through. It can not occupy the same space but can exist on top of each other. Oh man this is the only thing that made sense.

[@yesyeahyepyurpie]

Can someone explain to me what 1dp means? He says it's not 1 pixel but I don't know what it is.

[@Nam3Iess]

This is the first quickie when I had 0 idea what he was talking about :D

[@AnoDyNoS]

Epic video of Linus!

[@ThunderKat]

That camera need 60fps to look ok or is just me?

[@JubilantAntics]

I personally don't like material design, which is why I have not updated my Slimkat rom to lollipop.

[@frenchmax100]

Tell me that you saw linus spitting at 2:16 while mounting the video huh ?

[@sirhcmods]

Material Design is awesome! I just wish Google would implement it more as shown at I/O. Half of the transitions and animations shown at I/O aren't even in lollipop. All I've been seeing are color and layout changes by little. The best looking Material Design apps are the Dialer and Newstand

[@officialpartychannel]

This updated SwiftKey keyboard pops up fast!

[@thatguyalex2835]

Can I use Inkscape to make a flat-material design GUI? I don't want to download Adobe (bloatware) art software. Adobe has a lot of bloat.

[@123dragonballz321]

Android 5.0 is honestly the best OS, I hope another company doesn't try to copy it later on if you know what I'm saying.

[@AJeezz]

why is this ad half the video?

[@troyBORG]

Umm, you probably shouldn't of showed your KZbin Studio on your phone it shows your "Est. Earnings" *edit* why did this just show up in my sub feed?

[@stropinel1234]

Explian please the diference aboute AMOLED and LCD and why AMOLED gets burned in after a long exposure of a static picture as in the case of the Nexus 6, adiveze people to be cairfull when they buiy phones with AMOLED display, these days it`s a common problem that`s why i`m sticking with my nexus 5 and not going for the nexus 6.

[@rfp63sf]

I love dude's tattoos @2:03!

[@Mung1983]

Hands are yellow???

[@roylfan1506]

wouldn't mind hearing you go into more detail

[@houston34]

Linus, do a material design comparison video between iOS and Android L ?? possible

[@deneb_tm]

iOS is not material design.

[@bornholm55]

Will my Xperia Z2 get lollipop?

[@SuperNinjaleprechaun]

I'm really hating material design on my nexus 7 :/

[@haveabeer123]

I had to check my speed settings... I thought I had set it to 2.0

[@Uphorics]

Do an episode on coprocessors please! :)

[@jakeofyo]

Speaking of artists. Linus, could you make a budget workstation build video? I'm an artist/gamer, and since I know what GPU I'd need, I need to know what CPU/RAM/MOtherboard/SSD I'd need, or other artists.

[@SomethingRandomInc]

What kinda budget?

[@jakeofyo]

I dunno, depending on the job I get. Which I hope is being in a music band, probably £500

[@SomethingRandomInc]

Noob Gaming Honestly you're just not going to be able to build anything worthwhile at that price point. You can build something comparable or a bit faster then a current gen console, but I'd say 1000 should be a starting budget for a workstation.

[@ClarksonNo1]

Noob Gaming Yeh try and up your budget to £700 and you MIGHT be able to get something good for art. Although If you arent doing 3d rendering you might be able to get by on 600-700

[@ThomasVanhelden]

You need to focus on one thing, there is no computer that can fulfil all those needs. If you want to do graphical design, I would recommend a macbook pro or an iMac. If you want to play games I would recommend a windows machine. You also want a workstation, which are very expensive and not well suited for gaming.
