* Memory isn't a high-order bit for creative work, complex insight, etc.* Explicit learning activities of any kind are a dead-end; we just need to figure out how to design implicit learning environments well.* My work disregards the social experience.* Where's the poetry?— Andy Matuschak (@andy_matuschak) April 19, 2021

1. How to TINKER 🛠️Kids love to fiddle, dabble, and mess with stuff until they figure it out.Adults see this as a waste of time, but it's the only way to make new discoveries, like the airplane and the lightbulb ✈️💡— Ana Lorena Fabrega (@anafabrega11) December 30, 2021

it would be cool if each terminal window were something that sticks around that you develop a long-term relationship with. like you keep that terminal around for years, you migrate it whenever you get a new computer, and you know how many gallons of text have flowed through it https://t.co/D8MIDJyGzt— Omar Rizwan (@rsnous) April 22, 2021

i want to be able to right-click anything (literally any discrete element) and tell me computer "remind me about this"— é. urcades (@fIowerstructure) April 22, 2021

an amazing talk!one thing i havent seen much: file systems as spatial software. being "inside" a directory or "in a file" and traversing a file system would benefit a lot from spatial cues + affordancesthinking about this a lot for @Replit and multiplayer filesystems https://t.co/8mzEUhR6qn— tyler (⏱,⏱) (@tylerangert) April 21, 2021

Was wondering why most academics don't know about @worrydream or @andy_matuschak. And then had a realization while talking to Andy: Lots of ppl go from academia to tech, but rarely see ppl return to academia in HCI. @geoffreylitt @andresmh are 2 of a handful I know who returned— Yusuf Ahmad (@shaanmasala) April 23, 2021
