one approach is to stop thinking about “the” internet and start thinking about many internets, some of which could gate or attribute to human participation way down the stack (possibly even layer 2 or 3) no reason every single thing has to be connected

everyone racing to build the same interactive video thing over the weekend just to get some likes and reposts is a perfect encapsulation of where software is going

a fun UX trick for harnesses is to show code progress as KB, rather than tokens or time adds a sort of physicality

feels like it won’t be long before the risk of existing on the open internet (including feeds) is going to be too high for most people

Notes from day 6 of DAU-pilling @onbashtv: - This was my first time actually paying attention to a real-time/live chat/building session (like a "live stream") of someone building with the agent in real time. Very cool/fun to see the live chat with other people chatting with @dhof, you actually feel the community and it non-trivially enhances the experience. You kind of just want to stick around to chat with folks - The harness is so interesting because I have not yet built something that's "broken". Everything that's created/prompted "works" automatically - Everyone's spaces/artifacts are meant to be multiplayer so the rest of the community can participate...like different rooms at a house party where you pop in and out
Notes from day 5 of DAU-pilling @onbashtv: - Easily one of the coolest features is that the "users" are global - When you create a game and you want it to be multiplayer, all of the logic of allowing other players on Bash to be stored/state/etc. are already wired in - It's the same when you play a game, your Bash user ID is used for all of the other games on the platform - TLDR: all of the social/multiplayer stuff happens across every artifact/space automatically. Very cool! Probably the most compelling multiplayer/social part of Bash so far
