My family life runs on Apple Notes / Calendar. It's really annoying that Apple doesn't play well with agents, it walls off a ton of useful context.

The National Design Studio is doing remarkable work for America.
It is extremely rare for people as accomplished and talented as @jgebbia to leave the private sector to work for the public.
I hope it inspires more people who’ve built extraordinary companies to help build a country where others get that same chance.
No way. My two year old shreds. Way safer, more capable, more fun.
I feel like I’m the only person in the universe who is kind anti-balance bike. They make it faster to learn how to ride a bike: by making the learning curve shorter *and steeper*. bike riding is scarier and less fun at the youngest ages. and the prize of being able to ride a bike without training wheels is very modest???? like who cares if you get there at age 3 or 5 or 7 or 9

I am very uncomfortable about people trying to ascribe religious force or a surrender of human judgment to AI models, and think it is a real safety issue.

JUST IN: America.gov’s AI chatbot refuses to activate “sexy mode,” when prompted by a user, declaring it will only answer genuine questions about U.S. government services.
I'm coming up on my anniversary at @ndstudio and I'm amazed at what's been accomplished. Yesterday the team launched America.gov, an unreasonably ambitious project that started in a garage less than a year ago. I was blown away by the support from the industry, and world at large. I'm super proud.

70% of people in San Francisco who say taste and judgment is the moat just discovered Neoclassical art a week ago.
Everyone knows that post liquidity event you put the Eames chair under the Rams clock, in front of the Vitsoe shelf adorned with your Unit Editions and Standards Manual collection.

Focus on the things you are for, not the things you are against.
Many people spend large chunks of their day thinking about what they hate. They are always telling you about something they dislike: this food, that subject, this political party, that coworker.
You are more than your frustrations. Build your identity around what you love.
Grateful to be shoulder to shoulder with likes of @jgebbia improving government services for all Americans 🇺🇸
First of Kind: The @jgebbia interview
Why did Joe Gebbia go to Washington?
I met with America’s first-ever Chief Design Officer last fall to find out. We met on the White House grounds to discuss his newly created role, the formation of @ndstudio, and how Joe plans to weave design into the fabric of U.S. federal government.
