I put together www.chessrapid.com for my own use. It's a version of Puzzle Rush / Puzzle Storm that has the added benefit of: 1) filtering by tactical themes and 2) seeing what themes you are frequently slow on / incorrect on. This way I can narrow in on the tactical themes that I need to improve pattern recognition on (e.g. I can take a break from Mate in 1 and Mate in 2; I really need to work on middle game).
I imagine something like a local text file / draft email (because I always have my email open)?
The problem I run into is that I'm either running from thing to thing so there doesn't seem to be much time to write things down as they happen OR I run out of steam at the end of the day and I don't prioritize "write things down".
We've explored a bit of the ASL space. The motion based ones are not something we've dug into. But some of the "static-but-location" based ones are things we've tried.
"Mom" is easier than "grandmother". We've tested out a version of "mute". "Tile" would be quite a bit harder (I think).
This is a really great point. We do have some early thoughts around the idea of the interface being responsive to "distance from user" as opposed to "screen size". The chat interface, for instance, will change in size depending on how far away from the device the user is.
This doesn't change the particular problem you noted, but the general issue is an interesting space to dig into.
Ten feet seemed too ambitious and five was too many letters =). We didn't think about the six feet under connection, but now we'll have to figure out what to do with that. Probably lean into it.
There was another comment that was less convinced about controlling with the phone. Is there something about that modality / use case that you are particularly moved by? When you imagine "controlling" by phone what spaces would you want to dig into more?
> - using my hand as a mouse in space-constrained situations where I can't have a physical mouse
Are you thinking that you would consider using something like this to interact with your entire computer generally (i.e. instead of solely in the context of a video streaming like shown in the demo)?
> - dance class, so the instructor can seek through music, especially for rewinding to the same starting spot over and over again. (This is from the days of in-person classes; it drove me nuts that the instructor had to keep walking back to his phone and then getting it a few beats off)
This is really validating feedback and affirms a lot of our experience in these types of classes (especially remote). Requiring the instructor to walk towards the device to basically do anything really messes with the flow of the class. And requiring the learners to walk towards the device to do anything basically reduces the social aspects of the class to zero.
We actually do have a built out music control system that we took out for the purposes of this demo.
We also have voice controls that can be used to control the music playing (among other things).

This prompted a considerable amount of discussion during our most recent sync.
If you're available / interested, can you reach out to [email protected], we'd love to chat some more.
We're not too familiar with toastmasters (other than hearing that it's a great way to learn public speaking). Would you find this useful in the context of in-person or remote meetings or both?
And what would it be used for? Moving slides? Displaying / hiding the agenda? Sending lots of clap emojis?
Yes! The sudden increase of webcam usage is one of the things that prompted us to think about opportunities around this type of interaction. Sometimes I wish I didn't have to talk to my Nest Hub in order to make it do something.
To clarify, are you describing something to the effect of: [whatever WakaSaba is doing] => Browser Extension => Webapp version of $EnterpriseVideoconferencingSuite?
This is not something we have explored. If you had to hazard a guess, what $EnterpriseVideoconferencingSuite would be most amenable to this sort of work?
I've never heard of anyone who hit their billable minimums (e.g. 1900, 2k, etc) not get bumped to the next year. Although I guess there's a bit of a dance that happens years 5/7-9 for people who think they have a shot at partner.
Cravath still lists lockstep raises for years 1-7. Skadden years 1-8. Latham 1-9. Davis Polk 1-6. Etc. Are the firms reporting one thing but actually doing something else?
This is not the exact post I was thinking of, but the one I'm thinking of is definitely an extension of this one. Having this post by jeff will definitely help me on my search. Thanks!
Can you give an example of how AI might help judges/lawyers/etc discern facts and avoid the influence of rhetoric?
Isn't it a bigger issue that even if people agree on the facts, the law can be mushy with concepts like "reasonable" such that two people can reasonably disagree on what is reasonable given the same facts?
