How's that joke go? A fancy Notes app is the Stairway to Heaven of software development?

I remember the HN comments back when it came out , I think most (I remember) were quite critical whether it would actual work could ever be done one it. Well, at the present state of AI, I think many probably revisit their opinion.

I honestly think we should not make computers even more "magical" and difficult to understand than they already are.

I also never understood what OS vendors have against files and folders. It was one of the metaphors that caught on really well with non-technical users and allowed them to establish their own ordering system, much like you would establish a system in your home.

I feel that removing this and forcing everyone into a flat space is contributing to clutter and chaos, not reducing it.

I'd like to know how this OS would answer the simple question "where is my data, what is stored on this device?"

Oh and also of course: What does this OS do if Claude is offline?
