Been working on website marketing materials this morning. About to dig into some work. If 'variety is the spice of life', my job is Cajun seasoning.
Any conversation
How can I change an organisation with hundreds of frustrated employees, when I canโt change my own life with only one person.
Does a different person run a company and a different person live their life? I doubt it.

I think so, actually.
My wife runs my household, I run my engineering org.
As I get older I do see the two aspects of my personality start to merge but they are still divergent and were much moreso in my earlier years.
Past year's personal projects that went viral:
hallucinatehallucinate.site
The Front PageThe Front PageThe Front PageA newspaper-style front page for Hacker News.
groovemastergroovemastergroovemaster - Code musicCode music in the browser.
textlogtextloghotThe quieter social microblogging platform.
Yet I'm poor and can't get an interview :S how do I solve this?

creator of textlog:personal projects probably just arent the right knob if you want to get unpoor. if you want my honest advice i would recommend not showing hallucinate to potential employers, its landing page looks one-shot claude and is gpu heavy. but the others look very nice.

Totally, I'm glad they're at least trying something new (for Apple).
It just underscores the general failure of imagination vibes I get from everything in tech nowadays. Most of the industry is breathlessly chasing a 20th century "golden age of scifi" vision of AI. And Apple's over there diligently trying to improve upon other companies' products from five years ago.
At least no one's talking about the metaverse anymore.

yea its kind of sad how the design language has all converged to the same phones and laptops. 1990s/2000s tech had so much swag and fun with design, especially japanese brands. i like what nothing does, the uk smartphone brand. at least they have some identity.
and yea the metaverse to my mind was just a meme eversince they introduced it, like I know exactly 0 ppl that own a vr headset, and im with the nerds here. just shows zuck is surrounded by yes men

My favorite innovations in my own work -- and to be honest, I'd prefer to call them "discoveries" -- came from simplification. There's a beautiful moment when a stack of difficult, conflicting ideas collapse into a tighter, simpler structure.

Currently it provides a single read-only tool that lets agents fetch all the data in Main about the user's home (details about the home itself, systems/appliances, documents, any repairs they've logged). I think it could get interesting once we provide additional tools for logging repairs, upgrades, and more into the home's memory.

Compared to other apps which all build their own AI chat features, I wonder if the move could be to cede ground on this arms race and focus on building other features that add value for our users. Feels like a "commoditize your complement" situation.
