A freedom box that lets you own your memory. Capture screenshots of anything from anywhere, and let AI bring them back to life. Easy, convenient, and, dare I say, seductive.

Very simple. Defeat whatever evil that is:.1. Throttling us from Harvard.2. Throttling our trains.3. Throttling seafood from our tables.
An interesting question is: What could an American President do that would win the enduring support of Asian Americans, the way FDR's defeat of Hitler won the enduring support of Jewish Americans, or Lincoln's ending of slavery won the support of Black Americans?.

The best cities donât need to lock you in. You return to them anyway in between adventures.
@nikitabier Twitter's worst feature is the deprioritization of tweets with links in them. However good Twitter gets, it isn't going to replace the entire web. Most good stuff will still be on other sites. So deprioritizing links hides most good stuff.

NYC > SF for culture and taste. But the actual tastemakers are all in SF. SF trains NYC what to think. All their âoriginalsâ are actually derivatives. Trading is their trade. Trading hours start at noon. Big Apple doesnât fall far from the Apple tree.

infinite scroll in both x and y and its consequences have been a gift to the human race. for example @figma.

Suffering from digital hoarding like @Katierosseinsky?. Try Shori. It turns screenshots into visuals like this and helps you clear them out in bulk. Side effects may include less camera roll clutter and better vibes.

RIP React Native.
@karpathy this was a goal (especially if you need it in a pinch). helps to focus on native app only with zero dependencies. coding models are so good now that it makes porting to (and maintaining) another platform fairly trivial instead of using a bloated cross-platform framework.

See also (there's always a @Paul_Rony tweet):
On Interactive information, from Bill Atkinson 1988 Infoworld interview:. What HyperCard offers is a new format. On the Mac, youâve got a document and an application. Documents have information in them; theyâre passive. Theyâre acted upon by the dominant, all-active application.

It doesn't get much easier than pressing two buttons on either side of your phone. It only takes a split second, and you're never taken away from what you were looking at. You won't do this because it's "right", but because it's more useful. You are already doing it anyway.

Closed systems will always make it hard to take your data elsewhere. But you never lose access to what's on your screen. So you can capture what you see, and let AI make it interactive again. Just as useful and attractive as the original, but now fully under your control and in.

I've been working on this for years, but could never find the perfect words to describe the solution until I saw this post by @gracekcarney:
Following our series on memory, I sat down with @bradusv who's been making investments in memory and personal data stores for the last decade+. We talked about how this moment rhymes so deeply with the past and why it's so important to get it right this time. Will share full

iOS and Android can see everything, but giving AI root access to the screen would be a privacy and trust nightmare. What we need is a consumer AI workflow that's deeply integrated yet lets users be highly selective about what they share with the assistant.
