So I recently badgered my cinematographer @steveyedlin into making my ideal iPhone still camera app. It shoots RAW, bypasses the iPhone's look processing and instead uses the same image processing we use on our movies. apps.apple.com/app/apple-sto…

Video will be done tonight. Uploading tmrw. Got a bit hard keeping up with all the new marketing so I’ve cut myself off. Future stuff will go to a part 2 if this does well.

Day 22/ T3 Code has a new design 🙏
This was a dumb idea. I have like 5 things I want to drop right now but I feel like I have to slow down and only ship 1 a day. Will you guys forgive me if we do more drops today and (possibly) fewer over the week?

search and rescue. sure.
Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks. By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time. Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.

fun fact, i know billy evans (elizabeth holmes' husband) quite well we were friends in college. he even filled in for a last minute cancellation and went on my bachelor party ski trip we don't chat much these days, have hung out at a few mutual friends' weddings in the past couple of years yes he has always had the shock-factor / self-involved / attention seeking personality, even in college. he'd acknowledge this but he also had a genuinely kind and good natured side that we don't hear much about. trite to say, and i understand why you might not hear me, but he is a good person. he just is the trial changed him. the cruel, brutal, harsh reality of his life predicament changed him. his edges are sharper and he come across as unhinged but imo it's all a defense mechanism developed to protect himself and especially his family the human mind, when cornered, behaves in unpredictable ways the world is curb-stomping him over and over and over and over again, and he has two vulnerable little kids at home and a wife in prison. if you were in his shoes, i promise you you'd behave in ways people would judge you for. i would. i haven't said anything until now but the effect the whole ordeal has had on him gives me sadness. he didn't / doesn't deserve it, despite what you hear i see many ppl taking sick pleasure in watching the trainwreck, schadenfreuding while his wife's choices and prison time cleaves a gash in the family overanalyzing every possible detail that gets revealed with each new story if you've ever been in a deeply difficult personal situation, or had a loved one who has, please just take a beat to empathize with their situation on some level will probably delete this but just had to cathartically put this out in the world

This video was made entirely by Claude. I just gave it the screen recording of my app and a really good script. #glp1 #beta #protocolit BTW our beta is live now and FREE. Signup at Protocolit.app/beta

this happens when you haven't discovered Elena Ferrante
I saw of video of Ethan Hawke lamenting how he's not reading half as much as he once did. This is a much deeper and darker pattern. Some of the most avid readers I know, lifelong readers, have basically stopped. They hate it and can't even explain it, the fire's just gone out

Companies swear they want to get closer to the customer, and then automate every path that leads to them.

ok genuine question and i’m not being obtuse — what is the whole discourse around “taste” right now? i’ve only ever worked in the creative industry so taste is literally a prerequisite, never really discussed bc you would otherwise not be in the room so is this “taste” conversation happening bc the world is now run by engineers who are trying to “solve” creativity? also what the fuck is a moat? i’m sorry

RIP video editors indeed
hate to say this but video editors are cooked we paid an agency a lot of money to create our launch video, they worked on it for almost 2 weeks, and the cut still wasn’t what we wanted 2 days before the launch. so even though i have zero video editing experience, I decided I'd do it with AI. I gave Claude Opus 5.5 our raw footage and used the free version of DaVinci Resolve. I prompted the cuts, animations and music, everything agentic without touching the clip manually once. one crazy part is that Claude can't listen to the audio, but it was able analyze spikes in the sound data and reduced specific moments. eventually I finished it right before the launch. if anyone curious ping me in the comments and I'll share the agency version in private so you can see the differences.
