Totally agree. This is the first time I am seeing some real good competition to Midjourney and I hope this competition brings about some much needed updates on Midjourney too. I would love to see where this all leads. I agree about the real time image generation as you type, that is indeed cool.
Would like to get feedback on this concept of Barter application. I have put it up on the app store so that you can download and play with it. I am are very much interested in hearing what you think of barter as an alternative to buy/sell options we currently use. This is an experimental app, if people like it, I would like to understand what worked and what did not work and how I can improve it :)
Thanks for such details, and I like your train of thought.
One of the logical reason why calculator layout was arranged the way it is (even today) is because the mechanical calculators prior to digital ones had number 0 to 9 arranged from bottom to top (as shown in the image in my article). That said, both the push button layout and calculators were designed for analog buttons. So when we moved to digital interfaces and especially touch screen phones, there should have been some kind of study done to analyse, does it makes sense to continue using old mode of interface, or there is a need to design new interface for new paradigm (Just how Bell Systems questioned it when the modality changed).
Left to right and top to bottom does make logical sense, but is 3x3 the best possible solution? Even if it is, should we not reconsider placing those buttons in a more easy to reach position without compromising the muscle memory that users have developed using this old layout?
The experiment so far is showing that it is possible, but I would wait and watch where it goes :)
Yes thats true, but did you try to do that gesture on a phone number dial screen? If you do that, it only shows numbers 1 to 9, rest gets hidden and is out of screen area. It would be nice if they managed to show all digits while the gesture brings the screen down.
Thats a great one :) But I think that it needs to be shifted a little to the left for right handed and flip and shift to right for left handed use. Because the bottom right would be too hard to reach easily.
Hi, I totally agree, the thumb reach map does show it as a right hand usage diagram, but the flipped view holds true for left handed users too. Also inn my proposed alternatives, I should have mentioned that the should have preference for left handed users to flip the diagram.
