#RewindAi update:
been running it for about a month now.
Turns out it's a lot like backups, you very rarely need them, but when you do they're great. I've used it ~10 times.

From a privacy perspective it's good in that it's not sending them all the data but bad in that it's fucking terrifying that it's recording EVERYTHING including sessions on the bank web site, chats with my wife and close friends, etc.

I realized I should be able to compensate for the #RewindAI requirement of playing twister on my desktop by programming a macro into my keyboard.

This screenshot is what #Kinesis believed was sufficient instructions.🤦‍♀️

For those curious, here are the instructions for writing a ZMK macro: https://zmk.dev/docs/behaviors/macros

Also, the "macros" portion of their GUI keyboard layout editor does not accept ZMK macros...

ARRRGH.

Trying #RewindAI out. First problem: this seems to be the only way to invoke the UI that lets you scrub back and forth through time. You can't change the shortcut for it.

I, like many professionals, type on a real keyboard, with a real mouse, with the laptop off to the side.

This invocation requires 2 hands too, so i have to twist to the right, reach awkwardly over with my left arm dramatically across to my right side. It's uncomfortable, awkward, and basically means I can't use that feature.

Was pondering #RewindAi again because new job will have me spending _most_ of the day solo with no-one available to ask questions of. great for focus, terrible when you need help. Figured being able to access everything that came up via RewindAI would potentially be really useful.

the $10 plan is only "10 rewinds per month"

That's a uselessly small number. There's a $30 a month plan with Unlimited Rewinds, which is fine. But, I don't know why that $10 plan exists.

https://rewind.ai recently introduced an actually reasonable use of ChatGPT which is to have it help you intelligently find things you've seen in your stream of data.

This is, obviously, a big security concern if you have NDA stuff on your computer, but I asked support about it and they said "We will not opt-in to share data with OpenAI".

Rewind is a game-changer for coding on a flight without WiFi. Every doc page I’ve visited for the past month or so is searchable and viewable without hitting the network! 🤯 #RewindAI https://www.rewind.ai

I couldn't whip out my credit card fast enough. Full-text search of screen and audio recordings from your Mac with all data and processing done locally, which a gorgeous Time Machine-esque UI (but tasteful!).

Take my money!!!
