That's exactly the kind of answer I was looking for! I'm surprised by how well your ideas align with mine.
I don't think I've seen anyone else talk about how the UI should use task management mechanics. I've been repeating for years that GTD is the future of UI.
I'm also a strong advocate of dumb peripherals. Input and output devices should not be processing devices. I also like the idea of things like external GPUs through Thunderbolt. Regarding connectedness, modules/devices shouldn't have to know that they're inside the computer, outside the computer, or even in a remote cloud-like location. Edge computing should be seamless and transparent.
It's very important that data be portable. I'm not sure privacy is as important as we think it is (we would gain a lot by letting the world know.more about ourselves), but the option should probably exist nonetheless. The big problem is to have my data duplicated and out of sync in a million different places. I'd rather update a single source of truth, than run around and try to update all different databases (e.g., if my address or phone number changes).
I'm mainly a UI/UX developer, and I was wondering if there would be a way to build and bring some of these improvements (especially the task management system workflow) to users, without building a custom OS. Perhaps as an app?
I'll now look at Microsoft Sets. Seems interesting.
