I'm continuing my deep dive into Nick Land's main thesis that capitalism is AI. [0]

I've recently started adding sources that exist only in image form, such as Nick Land's Shorelines text, which, like Machinic Desire, contains the famous passage:

"What appears to humanity as the history of capitalism is an invasion from the future by an artificial intelligent space that must assemble itself entirely from its enemy's resources."

I'm currently transcribing his latest 3-hour interview and extracting the bits that relate to his core thesis.

I'm building a native Windows application for exploratory data analysis with SQLite. Much of the functionality is present but still have a lot of clean up, testing, and loose ends. I also haven't decided on product name yet and don't have anything for a website yet.

After the Windows application is launched, I plan to work on native macOS version of the same application. I already have a good bit of it implemented.

I'm purchased a business (kwesforms.com) to follow my dream of being my own boss and right now I'm working on learning. I've built so many different pieces of software but never been in a position where everything is new, I'm playing every role (learning dev ops, marketing, sales etc too) and I have full control to make it the best it can be.

The biggest piece thing I'm working on is bringing some automated form generation tech I've been working on as a side project (ottoiq.com) to it.

I'm also working on a little AI tool to turn todos into actionable plans by gathering additional context and breaking it down. If anyone is interested in talking about their mental models for problem solving, my email is me@.com.

I've developed an AI search product that has gained some traction, reaching over 10,000 users globally.

However, I'm facing challenges with international market expansion, particularly in countries like Germany, Indonesia, and Japan.

The main difficulty lies in understanding how to effectively approach and connect with users in these markets, given the cultural and business differences in each country

I'm working on a notifications service as part of a bigger project for a team.

I'm also working on adding new features and modifying previous ones for a web application I built for a client.

I'm also working on a personal project inspired by Booksy, just as a learning experience.
