I’m going to launch a service that helps to summarize any YouTube video, and I want your opinions on it.

It’s most specifically for those super long videos that make you wonder “Should I actually spend 20 / 40 / 90 minutes watching this?” It’s meant to save you a lot of time.

It’ll have tools to get a full transcript of the video, a super short summary, action items, other things.

What would you want it to do? How could it be most helpful to you?

Thinking of writing a book called "I Have no Job, and I Must Earn."

It'll be about the next 10 years of American history.

I love games. My son Jack does too.

He made a cool computer game a few years ago, based on his goldfish Pyrite. Poured his heart into it. And now, it's about to release on Steam!

Would you to wishlist it? Or share this post? ❤️ If so, thank you!

I saw a decorative sign recently that I thought would have wildly different vibes if hung in the dining room versus being hung in the bathroom.

It said “YOU ARE NOT ALONE”.

"Can you draw me a map of the 48 contiguous states of America where states are colored red if they allow the death penalty, and white if they do not?"

Proceeds to churn out HTML and SVG code for five minutes. Josh is scared for his career. Then:

In time-travel movies, everybody's scared of doing some little thing that changes the past. But you're in the past right now. You're in the past of your actual future. Do something small. Change the future for the better.

Got my new MacBook Pro with an M4 Pro chip. I've seen this thing idle at 5.4 watts. Five point four! To Intel, that's a rounding error. If I'm not doing anything significant it rarely goes above 10 watts. The chip hangs out at around 40º C in a laptop enclosure with fans off.

Then when I push it, I've seen it spike up to about 90 watts while converting an MKV to MP4. And doing it at 12x - 23x play speed.

This is absolutely incredible engineering.
