You know what's frighteningly ambitious? Replacing ALL apps and websites by a single one. That's right, my plan is to build one system that will make all the others obsolete. I've been expecting and actively looking for this for more than a decade. I have never found anyone discussing this idea, even less attempt to implement it. People really can't imagine what the post-app world will look like. Even people here on Hacker News. I don't expect most VCs to appreciate it either. I'm on my own, and I hope people will realize how important this is when they'll see it. The key to understand this is to realize that it's not just about building another app. It's not just about building another OS. It's not just about building another programming language. We need to completely rethink the way we think and communicate. We need to invent a new communication paradigm, a new medium for thinking. The goal should be to eliminate the gap between the thought of something and the existence of something. I should be able to think about X, and X should then exist. That's the gist of it. Obviously, it's unreasonable to expect that gap to disappear within the next 10 years. However, I believe that 10 years is enough to reduce that gap by more than it was reduced in the past 1000 years. Google asked themselves what email would look like if it was invented in 2009. I'm asking what language would look like if it was invented today. Who else attempted anything like this in recent history? Now back to something more concrete you can all relate to. How many apps do you have on your phone? How many online accounts have you created in your life? How many different messaging apps are you using? Most people are very adaptable, and don't realize that the answer is "too many". We've seen many attempts to improve this situation, with things like the semantic web, OAuth, WeChat, personal assistants, ethereum, Vurb, bots, Google Lens, etc. That's not sufficient. We need something much more ambitious. We need real disruption. I intend to make 50% of existing jobs obsolete within the next 10 years. I'll need some help. Who's in?
