took a spontaneous break from twitter today because i wanted to see what would happen if twitter wasn't scattering my attention / intention / focus for an entire today. it was very good! would recommend
Conversation
in particular a long chain of events led to a spontaneous call with about two ideas we're tentatively calling "omnitext" and "tuning," which are so dense that roam is the only good way to represent them and i can't fit them into tweets yet

(there was more to our chat, that I also want to post, but for now @QiaochuYuan and I have followed a momentum-wave and are spontaneously hopping on a zoom call to co-watch Doug Engelbart's Mother of All Demos)

when i was in college, we had a physical room that was like this. computer lab. we would all hang out there and work and occasionally chat, and if those chats became more serious we could refocus on it. also open to other people joining because it was in public space. miss that
