If we can nail this one, then an entire Oxford-grade education in the same style.

i wonder if have the clues point to a starting square (e.g., "E5") would be better than the current "reveal" aid. The spatial information would become more helpful toward the end when the player is dealing with the words they need help on.

Until recently, it was cost-prohibitive to gamify topics with indefinite answers and progressions. As a result, "left-brained" topics have been gamified for years, but "right-brained" topics have resisted gamification. LLMs and generative AI unlock game economics for unstructured text.

Casual gaming is only category outpacing passive, social media. The most direct way to elevate humanity's media appetite is to turn human greatness into casual games.

His job was to select passages from books and provide some commentary. Ours was to turn that material into an interactive title.

We tried tirelessly to look up the passages he'd send to us in the original text. The only quotes that matched were the top 5% short and famous quotes. The rest was made up completely, presumably by AI.

His 1 million+ followers consider him a world-class subject matter expert. But he doesn't read any of the books he's teaching. Eye opening.

An example of the first category might be a parent deciding it's better for their kids to believe in Santa Claus. An example of the second is to create a society on some maxim that's rendered true by group-consensus, "everyone should have an equal say."

Was Duolingo targeting customers who accepted the "hard fact" that passive audio was the only way to learn a language? Was MasterClass a "future vision" because people didn't believe celebrities would spend their time teaching? Or is it that we NEED education and entertainment, so these two providers just differentiated from a crowded market.

I've bootstrapped a few companies. B2B apps are easier since you can do custom work for business clients while you perfect your software.

Crone AI is much harder. It's my first edtech consumer app. It's been live for 3 months and we've made $1,500 so far (lol).

My previous business startups made $200k ARR and $1M ARR. Iterating on consumer apps is more fun and you can still extrapolate growth from small numbers.

1. Lexical

2. ProseMirror/Tiptap

Both of these are very extensible, actively developed, and well-built. Tiptap is indy and pushes its pro product now (fair). Lexical is supported by meta. Pros and cons to both of these FOSS types.

I have no affiliation to Foam. It's just awesome.

CBT and other psychotherapies challenge X or Y as false

Fully agree although a lot of devotees of Ramana Maharshi said they fell into silence just sitting in his presence. Improbable but it would be hilarious if scientists could make little "mouna wifi hubs" where practitioners got a silence handicap by sitting around it.

In the end though, I'm also skeptical that anything about self-inquiry can be replicated by an additive approach.

> "73% workplace leaders believe that easier access to data would enable them to drive smarter decisions about their space, programs, and policies... "

> "80% of executives say they would have approached their company’s return-to-office strategy differently if they had access to workplace data to inform their decision-making.
