    I like the idea that what is demonic about this piece is that it steals productive attention. Its use takes the energy that would otherwise be spent learning something useful (by t…

    This is hacker news so there's a good chance they mean "have a successful acquisition of their business", in which case I hope they can Exit.

    I feel like this blends two discrete things 1. Can I have access to my data (the side effects of my interaction with an application) in a portable way? 2. Can I stop or prevent oth…

    Very cute idea. I would expect that with a 15 second develop time and no live display preview some kind of optical viewfinder would be very helpful. I love seeing weird cameras.
