Design

but most chinese apps look like ass not because they misuse western patterns but because they lack gradation of scale when it comes to logograms

imagine a plane of white, then abruptly, a bundle of scribbles

japanese apps avoid this with inherent gradation in their typography

education

i've taught sociology, strategy, research methods (UG, masters, PhD, and exec ed) since 2008 in the US, EU, UK, Asia. in every place i've taught, education seems to be in dire straits. i wrote about what the future of education should be here: https://vaughntan.org/meaningedu

tl;dr: AI tools are increasingly accessible, cheap, and seem potentially able to produce any output a human can produce — they’ll certainly reconfigure what work looks like. I agree with this read on AI, except for one important difference: Humans can and must do what I call “meaning-making” because AI can’t do it yet. Meaning-making consists of making subjective judgments about the relative value of things. Education at all levels, but especially higher education, has largely abandoned teaching students how to make and justify subjective value judgments. To remain relevant, education must reorient around helping students learn what meaning-making is, and how to do it well.

you get meaning-sniped if you don't meaning-make

you meaning-snipe (externalize un-fulfillment) if you don't meaning-see

Farcaster

Not having the ability to post a single cast in more than one channel is holding Farcaster back.

multi-tagging emulates one of the most trigger-happy-inducing features of web2. this is one way to do it

instead of casting to multiple channels manually (as a caster), or follow multiple buoys with varying degrees of success, let channels do the buoying, and let casters know what is buoyed in advance

been there. channels are more like groups than tags imo

multitag is a discovery problem and solvable thru other means

it should be obvious to cursor development team that exact chat message retrieval should be a tool call
