Perplexity is a little too good with context. it brings up themes from previous chats even when my question doesn’t need it.

essential but difficult habit I’m trying to build: writing down or sketching every interesting thought before my brain deletes it.

I’m learning German again… I could speak a little when I was younger, but stopped using it years ago. now I want to get a master’s degree in a German-speaking country. wish me luck

went to a design conference that made me feel kind of hopeless, and now I want to do the opposite: make cool stuff and bring some joy back to industrial design

50 years of devices. save which you had or wanted Astra image-gen'd all the devices + built the site bentossell.com/devices/ inspired by xitter.cf/colderoshay/status/210… (i'd one-shot a collection of devices a few weeks ago and had no idea what to do with it, so this sparked my adaption)
