#164I've been working on a site that helps you find in-person work in NYC that is actually convenient: https://walkablework.com
I recently left a startup I had cofounded after a few years because we were a remote team and I came to the conclusion that we weren't going to be successful without working together in person.

#168Right now I'm mostly thinking about AI. Right this minute I'm sitting in a cafe reading a book on Multi-Agent Oriented Programming with a framework called JaCaMo[1], and later tonight when I get home I'll probably spend some time getting my Fuseki[2] server loaded with some base schemas (SKOS, FOAF, etc) as I slowly start working on getting things set up to explore some ideas around integrating symbolic logic with LL…
I’m working on a screen play called DRONE RACER about kids who race human sized quadcopters through the subways of NYC. It’s a mix of Hackers and Fast & The Furious.

Really fun.

#170Chillin - Next-Gen AI Video & Motion Editor, I'm working on the online video editor, https://chillin.online.
Chillin has a significant advantage over its competitors(veed.io, clipchamp, capcut online), eg it supports mobile devices, offers full keyframe support, no watermark high-resolution video exports, and supports vector motions.
So I feel like I am changing the world through this work.
