I’m kinda sick of being on a computer but not of being online. I think I’d like something like ambient internet, where everything I use is a computer and online, but I don’t use specific devices called “computers”

I don’t think I want this. I want my normal non-computer interfaces, but for them to just be online. Whiteboards with cloud memory. Paper books with highlights that flow to Roam. For digital native objects like threadthulhus and roam graphs, touchscreens but bigger.

OMG how i want a beautifu leatherbound journal that I can write in anywhere but is somehow magically digital and backed up to the cloud and I can get to on my phone when I need to. Right now I gotta choose between "whimsical paper journal" and "OneNote" and I don't want to

I 1,000% feel a yearning for this sort of thing too. So much information feels comfortable in the physical space but the barrier to interact with them as if they were digital gets annoying. No need for it to be published anywhere, more of a closed loop type thing would be lovely.

I want both this and what Visa is talking about (Minority Report style data viz). Just like a good UI/UX design reduces cognitive load (freeing your processor up for more interesting processing), this big leap in i/o and visualization would also help our little brain level up.
