iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Hell yeah, NACSW is great. Went really deep into it with my service dog - we'd spend hours every Saturday out doing huge search areas with friends, talking through the odor picture. I love that it gets pretty much as complex as brain + dog are willing to go. Will happily nerd out about it anytime.

If you ever want a tester of any sort, hit me up and I will buy one of those IR screens immediately!

Oh it definitely resonates! I'd commit crimes for a big tabletop-sized version...but even a normal-sized one really seems like it hits the "I want the multiplayer spatial bits of FigJam, but with affordances aimed at writing, and in meatspace" that I always wish existed for complex planning/writing.

wait I've discovered how to get writers (me) to murder their darlings (throw that paragraph into the trash corner!!)

I remain utterly captivated by this project! Such tactility. It'd be fun to have a little audio when you chuck something :) Haptic feedback would be cool too, but I imagine those little IR screens don't come with that.

Hey this looks cool as heck and really fun! IMO making things as described in this post is a kind of digital touching grass, and to do it collectively and examinedly is even better

There are some small teams in the US doing search and rescue work on horseback where they're teaching the horses air scenting detection to find people, similar to SAR dogs except they're also transporting their handler. It's really cool.

Best I can do is "how I chased my tail for 4 days and (re)-saved tens of seconds after realizing a dependency upgrade switched default fp32 to default fp16 and the servers Did Not Like It"

I used to keep a little notebook in which I’d write down fake names. By the time I lost it or threw it away or something I had maybe 250 in there, but the only two I can recall are Stefanie Germwingle and Stuart Prawnswallow.

I'm actually here for it (although in principle the same grindy endless design sensibilities will persist into the demakes, I'm sure)

This is 1000% why I'm doing the Cloud Atlas project. The ecosystem is making TOOLS for PEOPLE to DO things with but mostly getting stuck on the tools part in explanations. (Also I think there's enormous value in the connections *between* tools.) www.wrecka.ge/launching-a-...

Launching a Cloud Atlas

The right questions to arrive with—and the right structure for what comes out of the interviews—are not completely obvious. So I’ve been spending some time thinking about clouds.

.........unless you DO want a new hobby 😈

Potted herbs can come inside in the off season, but they won't do great without supplemental lighting etc. So unless you want a new (small) hobby I'd still recommend the Aerogarden, + treating outdoor herbs as a fun seasonal thing in the spring/summer for more output.

You probably want an aerogarden for the fussy ones (parsley, cilantro) or anything in the fall/winter. It is your easiest option for not thinking about it at all :) Mint will go nuts w/ sunlight, water, and nutrients, so it's great for outside in the summer. Do not plant it in your yard! Pots only!

It completely removes the whole category of "hmm maybe I need to retheme my website/change to some newer better static site generator/be on a laptop and ship code to write a post" category of procrastination and misery, which has majorly unstuck the people I know using it 😅

AAAA I'm so glad!! I like what they're building a lot and the folks working on it are lovely. IMO the best part is how low-activation-energy it is for creating a website, pages, posts, standalone posts or pages, any of that kind of thing.
