@SeanMombo how are you making this?

[Vijay R @VijayR2007]

@AashishPunjabi1 yeah, i had to get it done in 2019. it’s a common surgery these days and would recommend if it’s a complete tear. what did you want to know?

[Vijay R @VijayR2007]

@0xRohitSinghal aye so good!

twitter reduces the reach of links outside the app. quote tweet with a screenshot of an excerpt maybe ?

[Vijay R @VijayR2007]

if you try to take a screenshot / recording of a private chat it will inform the other use.

in this case it’s just me from my alt account which i use to save memes 😂

[Vijay R @VijayR2007]

when you swipe up at the bottom of an instagram chat it uses the gesture to start a disappearing chat.

they have coupled this experience with visual AND haptic feedback for the user to help them realise that their gesture is leading to an action.

[Vijay R @VijayR2007]

the haptic feels like that satisfying feeling when you rotate a bezel of a watch?

this is followed by a terminal vibration to indicate the action is complete and you have started or ended a disappearing chat

[Vijay R @VijayR2007]

openai/ chatgpt good design part 2!

i was speaking to the live assistant and then i dismissed the app without clicking the cut call button. the app did that by itself. and you hear a click sound like at the end of a phone call!

love these details.

[Vijay R @VijayR2007]

holy shit! used @ChatGPTapp in its live audio mode in the app, its like talking to a super smart assistant on a call. and the best part, when it needs to search something on the internet you hear a keyboard smacking sound while it serves you the information…

[Vijay R @VijayR2007]

@anuatluru software scales faster than hardware. what will happen when this anxiety reaches to non tech communities is hard to say.

i am hoping for a future where technology augments to the human potential and covers our shortcomings.

greed will still exist. so will suffering

[Vijay R @VijayR2007]

it started with a casual increase in siri usage. and now hoping to start using more of GPT directly. can’t wait before it’s integrated directly with apple

[Vijay R @VijayR2007]

it recognises hmms and pauses in your speech almost instantly and stops speaking if it feels it interrupted you. you can switch between voices and tones to see which assistant you prefer

Notes to self
How to break with my family karmas:

- throw things out all the time and constantly. No junk accumulation
- no old books accumulation. Ruthless
- less furniture than you think
- “i can make that” no, just buy a nice one
- “i can fix that” no, throw it away
- no nostalgic items and bad art accumulation. Its had its moment. Bin it
- get technology that works and take time to learn how it works
- clean, or pay a cleaner
- give guests their own bathroom
- dairy products are not necessary for happiness
- think and talk about what you are scared or angry about
- admit when things havent worked
- actively tackle the hardest problems in your life with good cheer
- less stuff on the walls. Less again
- raincoat leaking? Shoes leaking? Chuck em
- receive paperwork, take a photo, file digitally, and dispose instantly
- save things like recipes digitally not on paper
- put days aside to throw things out and audit
- think about, talk about and plan for my own death openly
- sell antiquey old family things while theres still a market for useless objects - no nostalgia needed
- be ready to die. Put things in order
- be willing to learn from anyone
- dont tell stories nobody is interested in
- dont try and be loved by being interesting
- commit to my own practice of feeling the constant embrace and love of existence herSelf, and be free from looking for a scrap of love in other people and thereby constantly disappointed
- be generous with others especially annoying lonely people
- give love, dont go looking for it
- slow down. Its not an emergency
- all these little things dont matter
- take pity on everyone
- ask questions about people, how they are feeling, what they are hoping for, whats on their mind… “can i help?”
- self gratification is not a valid life strategy
- interesting ancestors doesnt make one interesting
- time to throw some more stuff out!
- and vacuum, dust, throw the rugs out and buy an air filter
- eat more simply, but organic
- no need for treat foods to feel happy
- “your children are not your children”
- may i never spend long complaining about the emotional inadequacies of another
- predominant life emotions: celebration. Gratitude. Joy. Pity, grief, compassion. Anything but the grind of disappointment and resentment dipped in cheery jolly wrangling.
- pay people to help with things. Pay marketers, gardeners, therapists, designers, cleaners.
- make loads of money
- eat out and take taxis
- soothing soft colours, not conpeting bright clashing patterns
- making clever things is not a route to inpressing people and getting loved
- each one of us is loved beyond measure. The woeful hunt for it in others is doomed
- find solutions that dont involve duct tape, wire, conplex workarounds
- get the broken thing fixed. Pay a professional
- wash your towels
- greed for food is not a cute endearing quirk, enjoy the pleasure of simply existing and the anxiety over food quantity will ease
- worrying is manifestation
- that book someone stole? That junper left on the train? FORGET IT. Never speak of it again. Every time you mention it you subtract points off your own personality
- money is not evil
- give people the benefit of the doubt, dont try to read the minds of others
- relationship makes us a better person when it includes friction that grinds down the ego not when we bully the other into submission
- dont talk about family history in the belief its interesting
- no unsolicited stories about people the listeners dont know
- conversations are not “about topics”. They are with people. Stay with the person not the content/topic
- storing up random things to say and waiting is not listening. Listen without a plan for when to speak and what to say.
- if you are suffering, BE HONEST about it
- to become good at something i have to PRACTICE IT a lot and be bad at it for a long time
- the inner critic is trying to help me
- dont try and do it all alone
- to get unstuck, grieve
