So whatever contact point, if you press harder, it's thicker. If you press lighter, it's less, right? If you use your fingernail, you can get a thinner line. And we couldn't quite get there with the touchscreen dynamics at the time. Maybe we didn't know how. Maybe we weren't able to. Maybe this has been a number of years now. Maybe it's changed.

But it'd be really nice to have pressure sensitivity and have it really truly detect the outline of your finger and make sure that that would make the removal of the steam precisely that much. So there's just no uncanny valley here. It's like it behaves exactly as the real thing would. If anyone out there goes, I love that kind of thing and I know I can absolutely do that, please reach out.

Maybe I'll regret saying that, but... I'd really love to see this work.

I don't think about that at all. For me, it's like, is the idea any good? I think it is. I don't know. Let's build something and see. And then it's like a goosebumps feeling. I think we're onto something. That to me is the best feeling in product development. It's the feeling of, I think we're onto something here.

We're working on a current product right now, which I can't share many details about, but we just played with an idea. It's so hard to be so abstract here, but we play with an idea around images that in this category of product, this is not an invention of a new category. It's an existing category. But in this category, images are not typically part of the vernacular.

We found a way to make images like first-class citizens in this category. And it's super unusual and weird, but when you do it, you go, oh, we're onto something here. There's something here. That's what I think about, is finding those there's something here moments. And then I always feel like,

I've managed to build up a large audience on Twitter and LinkedIn, let's say, and maybe a few other places. I feel like I can get the word out. And I feel like if it's any good, other people will then get the word out. So my interest is not in how do I market this? It's how do I make this really good that it will market itself as best it can? Not everything can do that.
