Congratulations on shipping your app! I like the design and the concept of avoiding forced hierarchy like folders etc. I think this concept is worth building on even more. For example do users really need a rigid hierarchy like post-it vs A4? What would happen if I would be able to click anywhere on the canvas and immediately write down the thought (just like in MS OneNote) and format this text after writing it down - give it a distinct background to make it that physical note feel? Personally I'd be happy as it would give more freedom. Now that experience is a bit broken - I can click anywhere on the canvas to create a post-it, but inside of it I need to click on the top row to even start writing. I hope this quick opinion will be useful/inspiring for you.

Dark Sky Lighting 27 days ago

Also from the article "2 minute read". And I thought that those news about atrophy of attention span are exaggerated.

As I have learned about Gaussian Splatting just a few weeks ago, I have (perhaps funny/naive/stupid) question: is there any progress or at least theoretical chance to have dynamic lighting?

This is a very ingenious and interesting idea, presented in an esthetically pleasing way. However two related things make me curious. As the identified registers and arcs are very un-orthogonal how useful they are for your intended users? For example how their workflow/decision making process would look like if they discover that their script matches "The Crucible" in 78% and "The Graceful Endurance" in 82%? Also who is an actual target group? Creators themselves or rather agents, producers, editors and other execs or "gatekeepers"?

Edit: typo fix + "execs" added

Stacked on top of each other across roughly a hundred days, these events are something a historian of computing security writing in 2050 will probably file as a turning point, regardless of what else happens between now and then.

And yet, the public conversation around them has been quiet to the point of being strange.

There's a lot current events that once would have been considered historical: trip around the Moon, war out of nowhere, unprecedented explosion of kleptocracy l, enormously scandals and so long. Noone of these are moving much of the needle among general public.

Why? I think such indifference or rather apathy/torpor is a result of people becoming tired of constant stream of crises (either imaginary or real) that we're being flooded by. The capacity to react with something more than a shrug is finite. And I think we are being drained.

While really useful now, I'm afraid that in the long run it might accelerate the language atrophy that is already happening. I still remember that people used to enter full questions in Google and write SMS with capital letters, commas and periods.

It's not common to find just one, short post that completely changes my the worldview in a nin-trivial area. This is one of them. Thank you, that combination of mechanical interpretation + reminder that consciousness might be alien/animal but still count as consciousness was that one piece of puzzle that was missing for me. Obvious in hindsight but priceless nonetheless.

Besides being beginner friendly (forgiving mistakes), easy to learn and see the progress quickly (instant gratification, quick catch-up with friends who started earlier) the fact that it's not as physically exhausting as squash or tennis makes it attractive for many people.

It's good to have some kind of benchmark at least to structure the ongoing, fruitless discussion around "are we there already?".

However I must admit that including the last point that is partially hinting at the emotional or rather social intelligence surprised me. It makes this list go beyond usual understanding of AGI and moves it toward something like AGI-we-actually-want. But for that purpose this last point isn't ok narrow, too specific. And so is the whole list.

To be actually useful the AGI-we-actually-want benchmark should not only include positive indicators but also a list of unwanted behaviors to ensure this thing that used to be called alignment I guess.

Core function of HN Front page is based on "other people filtering stuff for others". Filtering out by any criteria (karma, account color, first letter of the nickname, whatever) doesn't automatically mean that someone is a jerk as you have stated in the comments nearby. It just means that someone is selecting the information to consume and does not harm anyone (perhaps besides the selective person who might miss interesting info due to selection).

Building a market reserved for mediocre tech solutions sounds like the wrong way to make Europe more independent.

The traction which is proverbial "wind in the sails" for further development must come from somewhere. A new promotional channel might help with it.

Also I don't think it's any kind on nationalism. Just pragmatism for the very unstable times.
