AI have really generalized the knowledge, to the extent that things are really there, at the tip of your finger, when you need them, however you need them. While people like Elon Musk would love to enjoy the "abundance", as a Zen believer, I believe that the books are still better. But how many books can you really read in a unit time?
Not much! So I built Open Commonplace. It is the commonplace book built by the community, and for the community. Key Takeaways (and different notes) from the different books are here to be read by anyone. And you can post them too.
In the month that I've been here, I've been noticing a pattern in a lot of launches - strong demos, polished UI, clear outputs of "what it does."
But when I ask myself "What problem does this solve?" I sometimes have to dig for the answer. (I come by that thinking honestly - I've spent 33 years building and fixing businesses, so this is the lens I can't turn off.)
