time for a new concept, what if Apple made a Fitbit Air competitor? Imagine an "Apple Loop" inspired by the sport loop with a small aluminum puck and a MagSafe style charger...
๐โโ๏ธ I've gamified my own run so I can race my own ghost with the Meta Ray-Ban Display.
I built a web app for the glasses, loaded a previous GPX from Strava, and dropped game mechanics on top.
Pick up coins when you keep pace, sprint zones reward extra points if you push, and a mini leaderboard on the lens shows how you're tracking against your past self in real time.
Best part: it actually works. Seeing your ghost 20 m ahead is a way stronger nudge than any number on a watch. ๐
At first @SlackHQ's new activity feed felt really wrong and I think that's because I was experience a ton of bugs, but now I totally get it, and I totally get why they wanted to bundle DMs in there too. Great work people.
If you told me a year ago that making a Sudoku game based on colors would be funding my tech cravings, I wouldโve laughed.
Month 1 of Hue9: Paid for my Apple Dev Program renewal.
Month 3: Just paid for the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro Max.
Next goal: Studio Display.
Never underestimate a simple idea executed with passion. Thank you all!
@Flighty@aaronagai@rjonesy If you're hiring more people, I wouldn't get so constrained by technical implementation. Making this swipe-able is absolutely possible. If it's the right decision for the product then make it happen. It's the only way a new designer and developer is going to have max impact.
@nishimiya Most animations are decorative only look good in demos. In real-world apps, they just donโt work.
Think back to when you switched from Windows to macOS. Did you notice you stopped minimizing windows?
Why? Because the Genie effect is slow. So you stop using it.
I'm losing trust that what Claude does is going to be bug free and fit for purpose. I don't think I trust it right now. Anyway, this tweet took 5 minutes, Claude should be almost finished changing that icon...
I have to say @claudeai's sudden slow downs mid flow, server errors, and the fact its genuinely seems 50% dummer lately, are really starting to become an issue for me. Codex is calling.
