The passage of time is relentless
IDEA #1 lightbulb

Countdown to death

We have 80k hours, or something

A nice widget that lives on your desktop to remind you of your mortality. No message, just a constant reminder of how many days you likely have left, how many you used up

Tool, Data Viz
IDEA #2 lightbulb

How many anniversaries

A collection of important dates, and reminder to celebrate

Just a way to have a list of important dates and events, and a beautiful way of displaying how many years and days since it happened.

Tool, Nostalgia
IDEA #3 lightbulb

Photo timeline

Scroll through a life

Timeline that shows a person on photos with scrollbar, maybe morphing a photo into another in transition, to make it cool and constantly moving when I press play

Generative Art, Nostalgia
IDEA #4 lightbulb

Fake memories

Make me feel like I was there

Create a fake diary of a life lived through the most important points in recent history. Was I there when a president was elected, or when independence was declared? This one convinces you that yes, you were and you are the most interesting person ever

Writing, History, Nostalgia
IDEA #5 lightbulb

Which one is faster?

Quiz that makes you guess what was faster

A series of questions: a period of butterfly wings, a blink, longest dive of all time - which one was the shortest? A series of facts about fleeting time, with preference of the astounding and life reaffirming ones, so I can feel great about beauty of life and time after playing.

What Broke & Fixed

  • ✗Some of the questions are super obscure
smart_toy AI Interaction Summary
Genesis Prompt: "/spec-implementation"
Interaction Turns: 9 human turns across 252 execution steps

Key Guidance Turns:
  • Turn 2: yes but make sure there is a good question bank (find a data source), don't make it up
  • Turn 3: yes
  • Turn 4: I can't see the implementation
  • Turn 5: I like the unlocks for cats, but the game takes place over two panels. Can we move next to the main panel?
  • Turn 6: it moves around when you select, with a popout panel. Can we make it so that it doesn't do that?
  • Turn 7: /record-implementation
  • Turn 8: 1. Get the idea right, stressing the need for verifiable data sources and increasing difficulty Improve UI, so it doesn't feel ...
  • Turn 9: don't change the wording, save what I wrote
