@esther @orta part of me thinks that “everything” here more refers to the nature by which humans themselves will seek to apply this to everything. What is the rate of high value utility to novelty over time for this stuff? My guess is it’s increasing, and fairly rapidly. Less about the utility now, and more about the inherent nature of us as a species to scale the application of tools to the maximum extent possible.
@mergesort tbh it feels like the fundamentals of HCI might need some rethinking; it’s not clear to me that the current way we think of user interfaces as tools for humans is the most optimal way to incorporate these capabilities. Like, pair coding is a thing, but it’s rarely done via an on-screen chat box 🤔
@indecisionoverload check out Gmail’s new settings experience though 😉
@indecisionoverload shifting a fleet takes time ❤️
@chris will always remember something a friend’s dad told me once as a kid:
Me: <Talking about not having enough time to do something I wanted to do>
Him: You’re just not making the time for it then.
Me: 🤯
@joeyabanks @mergesort a kit organized around SwiftUI concepts and terms would be pretty handy for eng/design collabs!
