Recommend using twitter, amazing things happening over there.

Yeah agree with the rest, already on the drawing board working on some communication changes. If you're curious enough i promise the actual product delivers, give it a try!

Like you're getting a blank screen? If not you should be seeing some demos on the landing, and if you sign up you can create your own maps.

Here's a tweet showing the argument creation process: https://x.com/_alexshortt/status/1828478128140009845

> Depression is not about how things are but how things seem. This characteristic is one that both concepts, hope and depression, share. Here’s how I perceive depression: today I wake up and think about certain problems I face. I feel challenged yet capable of tackling them. Tomorrow, I wake up and I think about the same exact problems, yet this time, I despair. They now seem infeasibly hard and I don’t even want to start tackling them. This is depression.

A simple and correct explanation. Looking at it from the outside, it seems silly to experience. But in the trenches it hits like a truck

not fully optimized for the quest just a heads up. best sites to try might be www.muse.place/balloonski and https://muse-place-2qc57fsgs-musehq.vercel.app/alto. we're not targeting quest users fully yet, but on my free time i'm slowly adding improvements :)

browsers are pretty limiting on this functionality as is - pretty long timeouts, and firefox/safari have very big indicators explaining how to disable it

yeah this isn't a bad idea. or maybe forcing the user to do the onboarding first?

Yeah a new browser is inevitable. Main bottleneck is currently getting the full power of the CPU, especially when there is no GPU present, as browsers have pretty high overhead that bottlenecks the application.

I really love his emphasis on modelling as a skill. Its obviously great applied to technical skills like computer science, but he seems to apply it to everything else in the human experience so well.
