I've designed things that saved you time. Texan. Occasional Kiwi.
One of the things I've been looking forward to with LLMs is the ability to have control over the UX without the need to have someone build the feature.
I prefer reminders to not be set to "all day" but instead trigger during waking hours, but I don't want to be bothered to specify a time.

The mental health benefits of not knowing any history right now must be massive. Moving through your day with total equanimity. What happens next? Who knows? Maybe something good

Not that they track it, but it would be interesting data to see what people switch to. Also, missed an opportunity for a Spinal Tap reference.

If you want a weird but true fact to talk about:
Dexter Holland, lead singer of The Offspring, was instrumental in this. His doctorial thesis in molecular biology was sequencing mRNA in HIV. The paper was also heavily cited in creating the COVID-19 vaccine.

It feels like we should be making a bigger deal of “we actually did in fact find a cure for AIDS”
Evidence is growing that some HIV-infected infants, if given antiretroviral drugs early in life, are able to suppress their viral loads to undetectable levels and then come off the medicine. www.wired.com/story/the-fi...

Having fun turning various topics into quick clips from Broadway musicals that do not (yet?) exist with the Gemini Veo 3 video model. Here's a clip from Feynman!, the musical about Richard Feynman.

I feel like I've been a bit too passive in my information consumption lately, and that also there's so much fragmentation in terms of source and format. And I really dislike having newsletters and the like in my email. So I'm starting to take control bit by bit.

Kind of old news. But when I think back on everything that happened during the Covid pandemic the one thing we got completely completely right was the vaccine. Super successful thing out into people's arms in under a year. Basically tamed the worst of covid. And yet ...
The FDA names Dr. Vinay Prasad — a hematologist-oncologist who has been accused of spreading misinformation about Covid vaccines and was an outspoken critic of the agency’s decision to approve Covid shots in children — as its new vaccine chief.
