Non-exhaustive list of things I'm mildly pissed off at (part 1)

  1. My health data isn't mine. It is from all the hospitals, laboratories, doctors, trackers, apps or other data collectors, processors, interpreters or keepers that I've used the service of. I'm not entitled to be absolutely private re. the most sensitive information about myself out of my most inner thoughts.

  2. Knowledge is 10x-100x more gated than it should be. We have no actual knowledge-as-a-service/streaming-for-knowledge right now. Course platforms undervalue teaching and overprotect knowledge. I want a repo of high quality PDFs I'm able to access whenever, and then ask clarifying questions to an LLM and, if I wish, pay extra to talk to people that know deeply about that and learn from them. Right now, we have piracy for that, and this sucks.

  3. Collecting online links suck. Instagram collections/saved posts, Twitter collections/saved posts, bookmarking links - these are all very bad experiences. Unsearcheable, untaggable and fragile - if the poster vanishes with their post, the server vanishes with the website, your collection turns to dust.
