  • What gets me really excited is the idea of messaging in low internet connectivity areas (aeroplanes (to someone else on the plane)) on the subway/underground

    The idea of Bluetooth/WiFi direct mesh, with “internet gateway” devices (maybe those people are rewarded in some way)

    In this dream of mine, people can communicate, send data, through non ideal internet conditions (maybe one person on an aeroplane has internet, and they are the gateway for others)

    There may be some relay servers running on AWS or whatever, but people could also run their own relays (I guess all devices are a relay)

    I’ve tried to get this working myself, using a library called “reticulum” I found in GitHub (good library, but I couldn’t get Bluetooth/WiFi mesh working)







  • Oh no, it gets better…

    Imagine a hard day’s work, 16 hours of slogging while you’re awake

    You get home, eat something and then head to bed. You put on your headband and select some setting on your phone and then drift off to sleep.

    Now you are working your third job, while you sleep. Solving captchas. A/b testing app logo designs. Completing surveys on products you’ve bought while you’re awake.

    Stuff that AI will never be able to do because the value is from being human. And yet is simple enough to do in your sleep.

    You wake up with a few less cents in your overdraft and you’re ready to start a brand new day…
