Incredibly lucky to be in this era where creating a Chrome extension just for yourself - a product market fit of 1 if you like - is possible and fast! Pictured here: An extension that surfaces Twitter's own block button right on the person's tweet for rapid fire action!

I'm building something. I'm calling it the curiosity frame. It's a rooted old Kindle and I give my local large language model a world that Sparks curiosity, all the images are generated locally with ideogram 4. The idea is that it rotates through a bunch of pictures.

Was getting confused about timezones. Got Claude to create a simple html slider in 10 secs. What a time to be alive!

The fact that you can name your product something so difficult that you have to build a feature just to help your customers pronounce it correctly and still be so wildly successful as IKEA - must mean you're spending entirely too much time on trivial details for your product.

@SlackHQ 's "Send reply to this channel" is remarkable. The feature is hard to describe - it would've been hard to name. If you think about this, it is also hard to tell from metrics alone that this feature is a gap in the product. Whoever worked on this, must be really tuned in!

This could be much better @googlephotos Completely misses the point - the user isn't trying to use your special Auto frame feature that you're telling them to crop a different photo. They're trying to crop their photo. So either do it or get out of the way!

Incredible attention to detail in the onboarding flow from @WisprFlow It does some things I’ve never seen before like this instant, pop-out video tutorial as soon as you click out! LOVED it! (Pity the ios app doesn’t work for me though, going to try the mac app next)

This is @copilot literally saying 'aur batao' :) Reminded me of Pu. La. Deshpande's "What is hot?" skit 😹

Wow @languagetool!! I'm impressed! (What would be more impressive is _not_ correcting me in a sentence like "X which was formerly known as Twitter"

Loved this episode! ⁦@ExpressPodcasts⁩ consider making this into a full fledged series please!! It was eye opening to listen about the story behind the word "secular" or the Directive Principles. Fascinating stories! pca.st/episode/e8caee37-b330…

@mvkaran just demoed chatting with Copilot in Hinglish during the GitHub Universe keynote. Major 'Computer-ji' vibes 😆 #GitHubUniverse

nytimes.com/wirecutter/revie… There is a fun bug on this page that I wish I knew the reason behind 😆 My guess is when they replaced the pick recently, something changed in how they pull the price and now that $5000 amount is some sort of upper limit.
