Officially announcing: @rememberthis_io
Last Friday was my birthday. I didn't do anything "special" in the traditional sense, but gave myself a birthday present: to finally launch the product I'd been working on in my spare time.
And so I proudly (and somewhat nervously) present to you, finally out of beta-testing:
https://t.co/OtZfGxJr7B 🥹 (it's free for everyday use!)
Imagine a sort of Google AI mode but for your life. You give it your rental agreement, your insurance policy, your kid's school year planning. And from then on you can ask it (i.e.):
- "am I insured internationally?"
- "when does my lease end again?"
- "when does summer break start?"
It was born out of my own frustration with my ever-growing collection of notebooks (never being sure which held what information or where it was), eventually resorting to buying a Remarkable (now collecting dust), note-keeping solutions expecting me to create directory structures or write markdown files.
I just wanted a simple chat app that I could dump whatever into, in whatever format, file type, or language... and ask it questions. So I made it!
It also has as many access points as I could build (so far):
- browser extensions to memorize things from web pages
- messaging app bots so I can forward it messages
- an MCP server so all of it becomes agent context (that's not locked in to one inference provider's platform).
And again: it's free to use. Power users can choose to subscribe to a paid tier for bigger files and more storage. Would love it if you gave it a try and let me know what you think.
Caring about a leader's sex life is a relatively new thing in America.
For the most of US history, there was a general agreement that private life was private and totally separate from business.
For example, JFK was a notorious cheater. The Secret Service had a special door where they routinely ushered out his girlfriend's after afternoon liaisons.
Hell, one of his girlfriends was thought to be a Nazi spy. The press new about it too but agreed not to ever talk about.
This changed a little with Nixon and Watergate, but REALLY changed in 1988.
Gary Hart was a hotshot Democratic senator from Colorado who was running for president. The front runner.
A photo leaked of him on a boat called Monkey Business with a girlfriend (he was married). He dropped out after the photo got released and his career was basically over.
Before that, a politician's sex life was mostly off limits.
I think its 100% fair that some personal stuff is part of the equation of do I vote for you or buy your company's stock.
But it does add to the bit of "why on earth would anyone want to be a politician or leader" as the fall out is massive.
In 1937, San Francisco finished the Golden Gate Bridge, initially derided as "the bridge that couldn't be built," ahead of schedule and under budget.
Nearly a century later, the same city couldn't build a single public toilet without exorbidant costs and years of delay.
Across America, communities face the same dysfunction: stalled factories, delayed energy projects, and crumbling infrastructure. We should be building faster and more safely than ever before. Instead, we struggle to deliver the basics.
The problem: our system rewards process over results. A growing bipartisan consensus offers a chance to change that.

@awilkinson You overestimate the moat and the amount of capital left to invest in this. Also, assuming the unlikely happy path, there is a point this new technology becomes smart enough to obliterate the moat. Like the Limitless guy that figured a way to remove the side effects.
The most simple socialist revolution can be launched today.
Start a company.
Make the shares owned by the workers.
Talk to customers, improve the product, promote it every day.
@DanielPriestley Why do you keep giving visibility to these people?
Surely you must know reason has no effect on them.
This dude is just another grifter trying to get rich or gain influence using the Garry playbook.
An individual who intends only to serve the public interest by fostering government intervention is led by an invisible hand to promote private interests, which was not part of his intention - MF
