apparently the original iphone had a youtube app built into it
imagine launching a phone today with a third-party app permanently baked into the OS
crazy how normal that must've felt back then
found an old ipod nano at home today
it’s kind of insane how much personality old tech had
the click, the little animations, the physical controls, even the way the menus felt
modern products are way more capable but so many of them feel interchangeable
@benln i’m building Ohmwork with Grok Bot rn, basically prompt to circuit with the output actually verified through simulation.
definitely wanna be in on this
@ColinMcDermott@whop ayyy man ,
i’ve been building a few things around AI + electronics lately. always down to meet more people building cool stuff
would be great to connect
one thing nobody really tells you about building:
you will spend weeks being convinced you're right about something
and then one conversation with a user completely destroys your assumption.
painful, but probably one of the most useful parts of it
something i've really started appreciating:
when you understand what's happening underneath the abstraction, AI tools become way more powerful.
you stop just asking them to do things and start knowing what to ask for.
I think we’re going to have a weird problem soon:
there's going to be more good content, good software and good ideas than any one person could ever realistically keep up with.
figuring out what to ignore might become a skill on its own.
