AI tools really need to double down on system design. I know the pace of change is fast, but damn, the rate at which features move or are removed is wild.

why don't all headphones have a mute button?

I'm finding that I wish conversation threads in LLM tools worked more like tabs in arc, and just auto deleted after say 3 days.

I rarely go back to past chats and find that I will just ask a similar question a second time because in all likelihood the answer will be better the second time.

Anyone else noticing that search engine results are increasingly terrible?

Mirroring code-switching -- side-by-side reading was thinking more of each pair of book pages being connected. I was able to get into a good flow, but maybe the English should only be visible on highlight.

Mirroring code-switching on hover.

Interlinear code-switching -- more fully translation-focused, seeing both languages at the same time. When trying it, I find I need to focus more on not defaulting to the English, which feels like cheating.

Progressive code-switching -- translation progressed in complexity based on word frequency and book length. This still feels like the most appealing learning curve when trying it.

Strange Harvests has been a wild collection of rabbit holes. Would recommend.

I'm finding that "design mode" is being overused and underdelivering. Many of the tools with some design mode remove agency through the abstraction of the tool into a prompt. We still need buttons and sliders sometimes.

Anyone come across research on Variation Theory for dyslexic learners?

Been thinking a lot about interfaces that promote learning in new ways what if you started reading a book in one language and finished it in another?

Not a perfect 1:1 translation, but a gradual introduction of a new language through inline context. Like how friends in college would seamlessly switch between multiple languages mid-conversation.

Starting to play with github.com/collaborator-ai/cโ€ฆ its one the nicer solutions I have found for tracking agents across multiple projects at once.
