I wonder if existing LLMs already know these patterns?

The tldraw team did something similar a while back, called tldraw Computer [0]

Same concept, but the tldraw team delivered something with a bit more personality.

This happens to me too - mostly from people in South America: i get their phone bills, receipts, etc... And now the knock on effect of spam is crushing my inbox. I know its spam related to these emails because its all in Spanish. I am thinking of abandoning my gmail to something new.

Neat!

This would be cool as a menu bar application that shows up when it detects an external display, sort of like a rear-view mirror for my Mac. I wonder if it would be possible to move things around inside it with the accessibility APIs that window managers use.

Seattle has a few non profit tool libraries. Membership is $60/yr. Instead of buying a $200 bulky tool I use once every 5 years that I have to keep sharp and maintain, I just go there.

For items that I use once per month, I still keep handy, b/c driving 20+ minutes is just not worth it.

Their tools are also in good condition and there are volunteers that maintain them. They also help with bike repairs too.

Specifically, I am a member here: https://seattlereconomy.org/

Anyone know a way to find stores in other areas with this kind of spirit? Weird Stuff in Sunnyvale used to feel a bit like this to me.
