- app #idea - saydio - it's an AI-curated radio station, that takes in natural language input
- so eg you could say
- give me a radio of only indie singer-songwriters, that winds down in energy over the course of an hour
- give me a radio of not-well-known electronic music
- give me a radio of 80% Glitch Mob with 20% of related artists sprinkled in
- give me a radio of the least popular songs of all of the artists who had chart toppers in the 80s
- and this would be done with an LLM with a bunch of tools it can use for
- searching (lyrics, artist name, maybe weirder stuff)
- filtering (instrumental)
- sorting (eg by bpm or some other energy measure, or by year, or popularity)
- I guess could maybe have
- radio mode - infinite, generates a few at a time
- playlist mode - finite, generates the whole thing

- collection of exaptation storys: Exaptation At Play
- edited together from multiple people
- some a page long, some 3-10 pages long
- also stories from
- biology
- wings
- swim bladders to lungs
- some human stuff
- technology, like the accidental inventions book I read as a kid
- a collection of reflections on non-coercion
- many of them stories
- also some essays or models
- also some artwork! why not!
- some examples:
- Alex's consensus-ism (many posts, eg this)
- also something from me on "work 100× softer"
- Captain Mrs's noncoercion thread
- a couple of Sasha's substack posts
- Trinley Goldenberg would surely have something
- River Kenna probably
- maybe an edited version of Tyler Alterman's EA in garden of ends piece
- other sources maybe

- I'm imagining a tool better than a spreadsheet+doc for tracking what Michael and I are doing with the Original Spin stuff. something that tracks the different test subjects you have for conveying an idea or insight and helps you compare different instances, and eventually helps you write up aggregate case studies or something. probably would be useful for therapists too (particularly ones with a narrow-ish domain, like marriage or eating disorders) but that wouldn't be quite the place to start.
- biz/project trust-dancing
- readings:
- 7 takes on love (as analogy)
- maybe some meta-team something?
- maybe some general NNTD thing?
- showtime / exam party
- Let's write for each other and publish it. Here's the game:
- Bring a few blurbs of ideas you could write up (max 1 tweet or graphic in length). Based on those (and maybe pre-existing familiarity with your work) I'll tell you what I want to read about. Then you for me.
- Then we each write it up with the other person as audience, as best we can in the time allotted. If you book a 30min block, this might be a bullet-point summary—these can be great!
- At the end, whatever each of us has written either gets:
- 1. published to blog/site
- 2. emailed to a few people either of us choose (this option costs the writer $30)
- Inspiration:

- #idea - LLM-based? service for bridging divides that paraphrases someone's writing into something they'd still agree with, that would also make sense to someone from a different subculture
- honestly could be useful in intimate interpersonal conflict too if you could map the two languages
- this might start happening more once people have personal AIs

- but for now it'd just be a flex handshake 💪
- meditators marketers
- 🤝
- increase NPS
- grow NPS
- improve NPS
- NPS =

- National Park Service

- giving blindspot feedback / gentle groping the elephent in the room
- mating dances
- I'm actually very stoked about this one
- < most of my recent and/or upcoming blog posts >
- huh literally I could make a salon where the reading is the ICTFM draft and then people reflect on examples and give me feedback
- that sounds fucking dope
- how often could I be giving salons?
- and why does that feel way more viable than just doing paid events on my own?
- legibility is a sneaky mofo
- also I guess they have a bunch of regulars, and they'll help promote it
- not-wanting-to-be-alone, also a sneaky mofo
- I haven't done a totally new project on my own in awhile, I feel
- like just organized a thing and said "it's happening"
- hmm
- I think people do like 4-week serieses maybe too, which could be a thing

- further on the comic etc #idea
- RH can point out to LH "the bridge is out ahead", and LH can then look up from the map and check this
- but LH will not by default notice anything else that's inaccurate about the map
- Max Harms said to me 2020-01-31 when I shared this idea
- ~"there's a mode of picking up the map not to use it but to update it"
★ Redesigning Twitter
- #idea "say you had to pay a dollar to someone in order to retweet them"
- to fix incentives
- (this creates new terrible incentives, including people stealing others' jokes etc)
- (incidentally, this would also offer a revenue model!)
- or even this could be an increasing amount, where the first RT costs a tiny amount, but by a certain stage you just can't afford to RT
- kind of makes it more clear that you're actually saying "even though this tweet already has a lot of visibility, I really think it should have even more"
Notes from May 29th, 2019 convo with Priya & GWS about fu… › G: question around structure of these mediums... › M: people linking things together › P: and search for a book title from people I follow
- M: ooh! #idea what if I could put in certain interests (eg McGilchrist) and then if I follow someone, it would
Notes from May 29th, 2019 convo with Priya & GWS about fu… › P: trying to run an experiment soon... taking longer form…
- M: #idea better ability to embed on twitter a tiny piece of an article
- maybe what they're doing with Highly?!?
- #idea something I could implement in an afternoon would be a browser extension that searches for references to any tweet being shown, and displays those like the RT & <3 count
- maybe. a bit of searching suggests that twitter's search API is limited, so that would be the first thing to test
- ahh, posobin's Ampie gets this data just on a per-user basis, pulling in all of the tweets from you and your followers, which could give a limited sense of this
January 19th, 2023
- something like Everything is a Remix as a holiday, maybe a whole weeklong holiday
- a holiday kind of in the spirit of nanowrimo and inktober
- there would be a day of the holiday where you celebrate it by learning more about the remixy origins of some art/product/book you love
- another day where you celebrate it by telling the world about something you remixed
- another day where you celebrate it by open sourcing some code or releasing some art into creative commons
- ummm maybe each year there'd also be a celebration of some old work of art/writing that's now public domain?

- #idea fluid contexts for eg ★ Redesigning Twitter
- in order to interact with a given tweet/thread/conversation, you'd have to first read some other tweet that would function as a kind of gateway
