It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.

  • I was curious about spherical helix, ended up making this visualization▲865

    I was wondering how I can arrange objects along a spherical helix path, and read some articles on it.
