more services, less terms

I'm not the only designer that every so often feels the urge to design a dense data dashboard like edex-ui, am I?

just building weird shit over here

how about a game where you play as the dude who has to go paint interactable things yellow before the adventurer gets there

imagine if software had an expiration date. bit rot just eating away at it until it finally glitches out and crashes. high-quality software with redundancy in its code comes in big drives. low-quality stuff you can just nab at the hardware store and use for a few days

exploring new things

i think i'm ready to finally share full vision behind @usepoiapp. what's poi about? well, it is a space for friends, family, and communities you care about. this space is designed in a way that people can feel safe and be open to create memories together. poi is not just another group chat. messaging is a solution that allows people to create, archive, and store conversations, pictures, videos, voice notes, and spatial experiences in a most convenient way so far. instead of backing up or organizing pictures you made somewhere and share them after in another app – poi is just one place to make it happen. why? within the next 20 years, the average me is going to own more than 2,500,000 personal artifacts that I think is impossible to access nor organize properly. the existing storage system should be rethought. no more timelines, tree-structured data access. there should be a different approach, and I bet on map experience. in multiple ways: first, it is nonlinear storage and has a sentimental attachment, which makes a huge difference in storing data. also, taking zooming UX you can actually bring it into access to the data from super highlight overview for the past years you can zoom in to a particular date. just literally zooming. and no, i'm not talking about zooming in/out in Apple Photos, i'm talking about zooming through the stories and narrative. and that is where AI can bring the value. transcribing, contextualizing, connecting things together to create a graph from your artifacts for fast and easy access in one place. think about features like: contextual reminders, automatic summaries, content recommendations, sentiment analysis, personalized insights, knowledge expansion, customized search, language assistance, smart attachments, time capsule, collaborative planning, trend analysis, and much much more. i’m not sure that the existing concept will survive over time, but what I’m quite sure is that the problem will. and I want to try to bring a solution to this problem, to step into this market of reinventing how we store our memories and how we access them. and if you are interested in building this together, please reach out via DMs, or comment under this tweet. come build @usepoiapp together.

surprised no one has come up with a smart home device that detects bedbugs yet

software engineering has this curse where you start from a simple problem and 6 months later you find yourself at 3 am playing with docker containers and encoded polyline geo traces and you’re like how the fuck did i get there
