Lock screen mirror I noticed we all check our look through the front camera, but the current flow is slow for that use-case because you need to open the full camera view and flip the camera each time. So I started exploring different approaches for this.

🌴 Last week, I hosted a happy hour for designers + engineers in LA. 🌐 We brought together people building products for filmmaking, VR/AR, crypto, rapid prototyping, etc that blend art and technology ✨If you’re a creative in LA, DM me for an invite to our next meetup!

nobody owns physics, nobody owns ai, nobody owns biology. don’t fall for the notion that the academics, the big labs, the famous startups, etc. own any field, even if they happen to discover it first. it’s for everyone.

At 16, I got D's and F's. Now, (18) I've coded a particle sim from scratch, written papers on fusion, and i'm building a fusion reactor. These three principals were fundamental to my accelerated growth. 1. proximity to smart people is the quickest way to grow Find a genius, and spend us much time with them as you can. If you spend time with a smart person, you learn how they think and view the world. You practically become them. 2. never ask someone how to do something Your ability to 'figure-it-out' compounded over time will become more valuable than the time saved from asking for help. 3. think only from the fundamental truths of reality Applying first-principals thinking is an underutilized skill most people don't know how to apply. Apply this constantly, for every decision.

If you're interested in manufacturing, here's my take on the Vision Pro production video. 1. First we see extruded Aluminum forms that will be machined into the frame. The two right angle edges will become fixings to aid manufacture and accuracy.
