“Facebook is planning to rebrand the company with a new name to focus on building the metaverse”

Bold or silly—I wouldn’t underestimate Zuck.
All I know is it better not be called Mighty.
There’s something comical to me about imagining Mark typing in domains into namecheap trying to find the perfect TLD he could buy.
Not a bad name for a Metaverse company:

One the issues with the new MacBook Pro M1 Max is that it doesn’t provide much of an improvement over single core performance y/y.

It’s hard to get better here and it’s most noticeable by users. A computer in the cloud will have an advantage in multi core in almost every way. Image
All this suggests is that it’s getting harder to achieve Moore’s Law with single core (long standing issue) and the only way to continue the trend is to pack more cores and re-build software to take advantage of that. That’s a good use-case for a cloud browser.
I am pointing this out because I’ve spent a while obsessing about why Apple has so much better single core performance and have noticed it has the largest impact on a user’s experience with most applications. So, it’s worrying that a year later on the Pro-version it’s the same.

I agree with @gruber's assessment here. Great analysis:

"From a usability perspective, every single thing about Safari 15’s tabs is a regression. Everything. It’s a tab design that can only please users who do not use tabs heavily"

1/ Announcing Songs for Tunes: artists can upload songs to sell on a decentralized marketplace.

- Mint real music: songs.tunesproject.org
- Listen to music: opensea.io/collection/son…
- Featuring music artists like: @oshimakesmusic, @DeffieDeff, @itsoksami, @grizzrivers, and me
2/ Songs for Tunes combines great music with beautiful AI generated cover art and song titles.

There are only 15 titles today but my hope is it grows to an ever expanding collection of songs creating a trading market that can help fund artists.

I made 6 of the songs!
3/ There are two types of Songs you can make:
- An Original (you must own the original Tune)
- A Remix of an Original Tune Title (anyone can do this) so that more people can create music and join our amazing community

There are only 5K originals but infinite possible remixes.

1/ TUNES (@tunesproject)

- Imaginative song titles generated by AI
- Audio, cover art, and other functionality are intentionally omitted for others to create/interpret
- Free to mint, just gas
- 8K song titles

OpenSea: opensea.io/collection/tun…
Mint here: tunesproject.org
2/ After watching LOOT, I grew excited about how NFTs could be more than collectibles. We can utilize speculation as fuel to fund building tools, apps, and infrastructure to re-think the monetization of large industries like music—all community-owned first.
3/ We are dropping 3,000 song titles today and plan to drop 500-1,000 each day until we hit the limit of 8,000.

This will give us a chance to distribute titles among the community smoothly & adapt to some feedback before it locks in.

We're excited to see what people make.

What is the best default monospace font of choice for the web?

Roboto Mono? Courier? Something else?

We get to make the decision for millions of Mighty's future users right now. Tell us!
Right now we default (unintentionally) to Bitstream Vera Sans Mono which is yuck.
Bonus points if it's completely free without any sort of license to pay.

We need a better, open emoji pack for the open web. One where a bunch of companies fund it, we choose a design direction, and then a roadmap to keep iterating.

If you're interested, please DM me. I think it wouldn't need much money to rival Apple.
Twemoji is a good step in the right direction but it's still not as gorgeous as Apple's emojis after hearing a lot of user feedback.
Plan: Raise $50K-100K. Find 4-5 stellar designers. Have each make 15 emoji's in various styles. Pick 1-2 designers that will conform to a winning style for the remaining emojis. Release them. Make a distributed font.

Mighty will fund $15-25K
