Got asked for a braindump on the future of search/CLI/helping computers become more intelligent and humane... Ready? Here we go... (1/n)

The word "search" implies we're alone in our endeavors ("you" search for a "thing"). Whereas in a networked world, we all search for the same stuff. The future of search should take into account this global awareness. Search should be collaborative by default.

The word "search" implies a unthinking, inanimate, one-way world. Filled with objects like "books" that wait for us. But our goal should be to build a world *filled with spirit*. What you search for should also search for you and the world should unfold around our will to seek.

The Cistercian numeral system; an ancient alternative to Arabic and Roman numerals where a single glyph could represent any number from 1 to 9999.

A Cistercian numeral cheat sheet! There are four regions; one for each decimal place. Each region has 9 glyphs; or no glyph for zero. Together this lets you construct a glyph for any number between 1 and 9999.

@noahtren

The monks used 9 glyphs per region. Each glyph is made up of 5 strokes; which have 32 total possible combinations. Each region 'could' represent 32 instead 10 allowing the construction of Cistercian numerals for any number to 32^4 ≈ a million @noahtren @maxkriegers @TomHiggins42

Many have seen the wearable interfaces we've made at Leap Motion. But few know the story & history that led to these designs. What appears to be 'simple' only came after a number of complex designs & iteration.

@randomoutput

The first wearable interface was a pip-boy style computer in our 'Planetarium' demo (2015). Notice the modal switches which trigger different sub-menus on the side of the arm as well as info readouts on the cuff (thanks @randomoutput & @protodeep)

@builderboy2005

Our second wearable interface (2015) had scrolling, swipe-to-dismiss, tap-to-expand & notifications on the back of the arm. We used a wrist button to summon a multi-level menu system from the hand, which was then anchored in space (props to @builderboy2005 & @keiichiban)
