Unreal. Apple’s gonna take a 30% off everything they possibly can.

You’re not familiar with this text or gnosticism.

GPT-4: “In Gnostic texts, particularly those found in the Nag Hammadi library, Thomas is often referred to as "Didymos Judas Thomas." The name "Didymos" is Greek for "twin," and "Thomas" is Aramaic for "twin." In the Gospel of Thomas, one of the Gnostic gospels, Thomas is depicted as having a special understanding or connection to Jesus, but the text does not explicitly state that Thomas is Jesus's twin in a biological sense.

Instead, the "twin" designation may be symbolic, representing a spiritual kinship or a metaphorical relationship rather than a literal familial one. Gnostic texts are known for their symbolic and allegorical language, and the exact nature of Thomas's relationship to Jesus is subject to interpretation. It's also worth noting that Gnostic beliefs were diverse, and different texts might portray the relationship differently.“

One of my favorite museums that I've visited! One thing that particularly struck me were the figurines in handstand scorpion pose and other various yogic postures. It proves that the indigenous people had a movement culture, so much so that it revered poses like scorpion!

the whole Sketch -> Invision -> Figma pipeline was quick — never seen incumbents displaced so quickly.

I've noticed that lots of appliances now use the On/Off power symbol to mean start/stop the appliance, not cutting off power.

Stuff like coffee makers etc. It's weird.

"My hope is someday, when the next Aristotle is alive, we can capture the underlying worldview of that Aristotle - in a computer. And someday, some student will be able not only to read the words Aristotle wrote, but ask Aristotle a question - and get an answer!"- Steve Jobs, 1985
