UI doesn't die, it relocates. I've been running PAI daily for months. It took two weeks of intensive work with TELOS and customization to give the system enough context to truly know my needs. The effort required to close the personalization gap is the part nobody talks about. For preference-heavy decisions, even low-stakes ones like choosing a shirt, we have so many unspoken quirks as individuals. Some preferences would only surface through dialogue. I don't believe an agent will know there's a specific tactile feel I want in a shirt. No pre-loaded profile covers that. The conversation IS the product. With that in mind, I think the model is heavily voice-driven: kicking off agents, then a proper dialogue interviewing you only when necessary, ending with just-in-time UI at the point of decision. The shift is less screen time, not no screen. And this might be what gives optical/spatial UI its iPhone moment. The screen doesn't die. It stops being a storefront.

@lovexbre @KahanArchive I mean it’s called the great divide tour not 45% stick season. I’m a happish camper just for attending but I want him to be confident in his new work bc in many ways I believe it resonates more deeply with many fans than stick szn

@KahanArchive Leaving out willing and able, staying still, and Dan is so confusing to me. But I was reallllly wanting a few of your own, 23, and godlight 😭

🚨| Notable songs Noah Kahan did *NOT* play at night one of The Great Divide World Tour • Willing and Able • Staying Still • Dan • Maine • All Them Horses • A Few Of Your Own • Spoiled • Headed North • 23 • Lighthouse • Godlight

@KahanArchive 10/22 stick season was tough man. Cut that to like 4 also 2 hrs was pretty short maybe push to 2:20 The people need Dan, 23, Willing and Able, Spoiled, Maine, Your needs my needs

🐞| The Great Divide World Tour opening night setlist

@KahanArchive Stick season end instead of Dan is heart breaking

I think the biggest devastators are All Them Horses, Maine and Dan being missing. Like mainly those 3

@KahanArchive I’m sorry but no Dan and no Willing and Able hurt ngl. And that’s asking very little I could be much greedier with GD deepcuts

@NoahKahan what you got a tell em

Somebody call the fellas at the morgue real quick I got something I need to tell em

@signulll fair, we can have a non-lethal option as well

@AlecFreese glove slaps could be cool too!

let’s talk about big almond shall we

@adcock_brett we’re only just laying down the utilities of the next economy. So incredibly early on EVERYTHING

At some point we’ll manufacture humanoid robots at cell phone volumes. We are tiny today

@NoahKahan does admission include a box of tissues?

Been waiting for tonight for years. I hope you love this show as much as we do

@BecomingCritter @noampomsky at the very least public stocks. Culture needs shame via public humiliation again

@noampomsky we should bring back flogging i think it would help a lot of things

I think that people who litter in waymos should be publicly flogged

Fable can go kick rocks. I won't accept this back talk in my house

@almac_dev camera off superiority is key

what's up with people waving in zoom calls i feel such a maverick because i've never picked up this weird gesture

1. Obviously. My point is the narrative in the US is that it’s a miracle drug that would benefit everyone, and I’m concerned about the long-term impact for users who don’t actually have a medical need. Americans who are a healthy weight are taking them to “get skinnier” and skipping working out. There is no discussion of an off-ramp for these drugs, which is important considering most people regain the weight within a year of stopping

@AlecFreese @signulll 1) Obesity definitely has a stronger net negative impact on longevity. By far. 2) Exercise and diet changing are endorsed for GLP-1-Agonists too. 3) Exercise and diet alone failed for half a century. Exercuse and diet alone just don't work.

humanity solved obesity. even with all of the agi stuff happening, this is a remarkable achievement.

@yacineMTB so much capital is moving to FL and TX it’s the long play since intelligence is now liquid and distributed globally

what if i moved to miami? instead of california? i feel like california is too obvious of a move

@blakeaburge document bad days as often as good ones is key

Underrated life advice: Keep more evidence of your progress. Journal entries. Photos. Notes. Old goals. We spend so much time focused on how far we have left to go that we forget how far we've already come. Sometimes perspective is the only motivation you need.

@jackfriks It’s always cutting season

cut infrastructure cost by $600/month or add $600/month in MRR instead.... what to do

@dariusdan it’s also more common for non-design stakeholders to overstep with critiques imo, compared to code or other disciplines. Everyone has eyes but that doesn’t mean your critique has equal weight

Design is the only job where the final version looks effortless and nobody knows you almost quit twice while making it. 🫠

@sohocine nor was the steel curtain

@AlecFreese rome wasn't built in a day.

I came to Rome for the culture
