Tonight in NYC, technologists, builders, and thinkers gathered to ask: what would it look like if software left us feeling nourished instead of drained? Introducing the Resonant Computing Lab — a fund dedicated to turning principle into practice. resonantcomputinglab.com
I went on the Atlantic podcast with my friends and collaborators @mmasnick and @zweinberg to talk about Resonant Computing: an optimistic vision for tech in the age of AI. theatlantic.com/podcasts/2026/…
The same origin paradigm turns every app creator into a goblin jealously hoarding their data treasure.
A world of infinite software is post-software. Software will be so pervasive that it can be taken totally for granted. It becomes invisible by becoming ubiquitous.
Had a blast recording this podcast on Resonant Computing: riskgaming.com/p/can-software…
The problem isn't anybody choosing Candy Crush. The problem is when there's nothing left to choose BUT Candy Crush.
What if technology didn’t feel so… hollow? Some friends and I just released a manifesto about a world where tech leaves us feeling nourished (along with an evolving list of theses about how we can build it) resonantcomputing.org
Technology is primarily an amplifier, so it's imperative that it amplifies the right thing.
Silicon Valley's lost decade: consumer ceded to aggregators, software "innovation" meant SaaSy CRUD for some vertical niche. We forgot software could be anything else. Infinite software means we can dream again.
AI companions designed by corporations will feel like friendship, but work like social media. A dangerous combination!
Hollow vs. resonant experiences @komorama explains how we’ve optimized our way into a crisis of meaning:
LLMs allow us to electrify software, making it coactive, practically alive.
What would it look like to decentralize apps? That app is the nexus of power because it is where the data lives. The app is at the top of the stack deciding what pixels to render. Decentralization at other layers doesn't matter nearly as much.
What if instead of buying software from a store, you could grow it in your garden?
Most vibe coding tools produce Potemkin software. Demos great, falls over in the slightest breeze. We need infrastructure where strangers can refine vibe-coded software so improvements benefit everyone... yet it's somehow still safe with your private data.
Your perfect personal use case is an edge case for an aggregator.
Software should feel like a personal garden that grows for you, not something some stranger constructed.
Resonance is when want and need are aligned.
Imagine software that doesn't feel like visiting the DMV, but like working with a master craftsperson who knows exactly what you need.
