I find it funny when privacy app websites request cookies and don't work in lockdown mode 😆💀

What label would Schwab use for the person who is 100% Bitcoin allocation?

We have been planning this feature for a while. It got put on hold as we worked on another major initiative (more info on that soon). I'm super stoked for this update because I use Maple every day as my first AI. Being able to use projects with shared context has been a big productivity unlock, both professionally and personally. I know some people like the ability to organize their sidebar, I get that. But for me, the custom instructions per project are the massive feature. Eventually we want to add shared files as well, as part of a bigger document repository feature. Maple updates were fast and furious during 2025 and slowed over the last three months. We weren't sitting on our hands. Expect to see regular updates again. View article →

The new Maple app we're building can help you use technology less and experience the world around you more. How does that sound to you? I traveled with it over the last two weeks, and it quickly became my interface for a multitude of tasks. Looking up things, research around town, capturing thoughts, public transportation, real-time sports scores, language translation, sightseeing, reminding me of scheduled items, small therapy sessions, keeping track of recommendations, to-do list items, figuring out restaurant menu items, journaling, understanding local traditions, and even finding a bathroom from a photo I took ("I'm right here, where's the nearest public toilet?!"). There were at least 10 apps it replaced. For the ones it didn't, I hit it first before going to the other app. Equipping me with personalized research meant I was fast at using the other app. Got in, got out. Another outcome is that I had fewer moments of getting distracted by the algorithms each app uses to keep you engaged with them. And yes, you can interpret this post as, "Use technology less by using our app more." 😅 I think the goal should be decreasing wasted time in apps overall. If one app reduces how much time you spend on your phone, that seems like a benefit. Just me?

Outdated

There will always be companies willing to provide cheap or free services to people willing to give up their dignity.

Microsoft Azure portal is so difficult to use, I don't know how anything ever got configured before AI was able to walk people through the steps.

It's surprising to me how surprised people are by this. If you wear glasses with cameras and mics, streaming the data to a company that openly admits it can see your data and monetize it, your personal life will be exposed.
