What have you found to be the most important dimensions of a good idea?
- Tangibility, Frequency, Capability, Bilitybility --> does it sit and center well in the brain, does it mutate other functions of said chair, post mutation does it iterate, post iteration does my capable function improve. Layman self to Manlay self "the good idea should self satisfy itself aka if it feels good it is good", and while that conceit is solidly false, the feeling is real (cue Cheryl Lynn https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54HSk7-q960)
Thoughts on Apple’s Vision Pro?
- talk me out of calling it the Applebation Mask. As a man consumed by psychedlic reality it is somewhat uncomfortable to me to give over my psychosis to a product engineered to help people look at even more screens inside of a screen. One of the early reviews I read said that looking over videos taken from the device felt like returning from the afterlife. TV has zombified me enough to know better than to go deeper into the fiber connected frequency of death. I can't wait to buy courtside Warriors tickets on this.
What most irks you about February? (Super Bowl Ads? Valentines? The 29th?)
- i think it is a little rude that of all the months that get leap years this is the only one. We should give the other eleven month special non-annually recurring days. I am proposing June 26.5th happens every eight years and we make it MeepMeep day and folks can only talk like Beeker or The Roadrunner. August 99st happens every '01 of each century and includes two extra months (named Barry & Terry). The extra months are a bit much and overstay their welcome, but mankind comes to appreciate their quirkiness and it all leads to a sitcom deal (B.L.T. aka Barry Loves Terry). The sitcom does ok but gets cancelled after two seasons but there is home for a reboot the next August 99st.
Favorite log?
- Logarithm - especially at a funky tempo !
...welcome back king...what was the most surprising and delicious snack of your travels?...
Re Visión Pro, I think this tweet is on point https://x.com/kylebrussell/status/1753767565392748626?s=61&t=HRDzOGPe5kRPb51K-pDD8w The important thing is to focus on people’s reaction and it’s clearly leaving a mark. The main question now is how does this feeling hold up with time. Is a great execution and a brilliant screen enough to bring on a new set of people that use XR regularly?
I have to disagree with the centralised Substack - which I *would* say, having separated mine into two a month ago. They are different sides of me, with different tones of voices, subjects of interest, two brands. Rather than being a personal brand, this feels more effective.
Didn’t know that about tags creating URLs. Thank you!

I'm waiting for chao to get his vision pro so I can be that friend who magically shows up at his door to try it...
