I am working on making a home manager over text. You text your shopping list as you remember things to buy and when you want to order, you text fulfill. I am using Kroger api behind the scene and reasoning over items that are returned, best picks are the ones that you have already ordered before and the first time item picks are governed by the family preferences you have texted.

There is no website so no UI to maintain, it is just text. You text ‘connect’ to the number, it asks you zip code and once your store is set, all you do then is to text the items. I have been including things like texting ‘seasonal’, which picks the seasonal items and add to your shopping cart. I am having a lot of fun with it since it is hot in Seattle , peaches are in season and the home manager ‘made’ me a peach burrata salad.

Currently only works if your main store is in the QFC/Kroger family. Email in bio if you would like to try!

That is perhaps the current administration, may be we do need a visionary in government again

World war I and II in general?

I think this is where government steps in for each country, go on the path of exploration that has no profit per se in it like space exploration, human body understanding. I am drawing parallel to 1930s or 40s where great depression was smoothen because America embarked on to take many huge infrastructure projects.

Lastly, OpenAI and Anthropic or any other frontier labs needs to be nationalized because they become a public utility and the profits of automation goes to fund infrastructure or grand projects via government.

We do not need to do menial work anymore and AI is helping us with it, what we can do exploratory work, and we need a visionary to get this rolling.

Thank you Tim Cook, as I am writing this on an iPhone.

Is this a golden opportunity to take on the software side of Apple, native apps like photos and messages, notes app? So much good data we give to Apple apps sit their idling, there is a play here to turn them into an independent playable artifacts and shared digital human network company. My friend emma has her snack Game on! I would like to get a snack list derived from her snack data. Yes, texting works but there is no programmatic way of accessing each other’s data. I believe this data needs be freed from Apple.

Apple’s privacy approach is stellar, that quest though is a prison where our data goes and does a slow death.

Totally tangent, a startup get promoted to getting funded if the business model is simple. May be opt for a startup.

Waymo is the answer to all our problems

Why are we not focussing on rocket based travel so we can finally do 90 mins from Seattle to London :)

Spacex and blue origin has already demonstrated heavy payload transport, why can we just move to this than work on supersonic

Happy New Year HN! Grateful for the insights I get every morning from fellow humans through the comments.

This year I sold my company, for a while I thought I will die with it. This year has been brutal in some ways, tackling lots of daemons and getting through them.

Wishing everyone a great new year celebrations with friends and family.

Love you HN.

To me it was Django that made python a choice of language to develop on. On top of it , not dealing with pointers of c++ made it much simpler to use.
