Alexander Bandukwala @ SPLASH @bandukwala.me · 29/09/2026100% agree. Just showing both on both and allowing you to modify them would at least be an improvement. I seems like defaulting to just do both if the watch is worn would be fine and have options for phone/watch only though 030
Alexander Bandukwala @ SPLASH @bandukwala.me · 29/09/2026The Apple ecosystem can be pretty overrated. Fitbit let you set alarms on your phone a decade ago; Apple still doesn’t let you configure Apple Watch alarms from an iPhone. 161

Reposted by Alexander Bandukwala @ SPLASH𝕮 @chrisshank.com · 18/09/2026I think we need to figure out how to articulate why the coupling of accounts to apps/platforms is where they derive their power rather than the regulation of cookies, feeds/algorithms, and data exports, which isn't curbing their power. 151

Alexander Bandukwala @ SPLASH @bandukwala.me · 17/09/2026I always come back to djikstra “abstraction is a tool to create a precise new semantic level rather than to remain vague”. Whereas these tools operate in a position explicitly to be handle being vague. 010
Alexander Bandukwala @ SPLASH @bandukwala.me · 17/09/2026Like the interface that we have between us and an agent is very much, not a precise representation so you can’t have any real objective interpretation of the request and response. 100
Alexander Bandukwala @ SPLASH @bandukwala.me · 17/09/2026And get what you’re going for, but modern LLM tools don’t really have the issue with counting the Rs in strawberry. I think the distinction here has to more do with the relationship the user has with the tool rather than how the tool works. 200

Alexander Bandukwala @ SPLASH @bandukwala.me · 09/09/2026Reading anthropics economic scenarios page. I haven't read the whitepaper or finished but there model of the economy seems to completely ignore the demand side. The economy is a set of tasks with no notion of those tasks being generated because people have enough money to pay for stuff. 110

Alexander Bandukwala @ SPLASH @bandukwala.me · 08/09/2026What gets me is this concept that "the law is too slow to keep up". Like it's obviously illegal, doing it with new technology shouldn't change that. 140
