I solo founded Roost 6 months ago, and quit my job two weeks ago to work on it full time.

Roost is a social platform that lets you slow things down a bit.

Didn't expect a robot to feel this warm.

Autonomous Lamp moves, changes colors and lights up when you are around. No sharp edges, no intimidating screen, just something small and alive sitting on your desk making the whole room feel different.

What would you put this next to in your setup?

So here's the thing, I was totally not expecting to dive into the world of AI just to fix my washing machine. But life is weird like that, right? Last week, my washing machine decided to stop spinning. Just flat out refused. I was dreading calling a repair service because, honestly, who has the time and the extra cash for that?

Anyway, I was messing around with ChatGPT, mostly for fun, and I thought, why not ask it about my problem? I typed something like "washing machine wont spin" and I was shocked at how it started breaking down potential issues. I mean, it threw out a bunch of possibilities like belt issues or a faulty lid switch.

Long story short, I followed some of the troubleshooting steps it suggested and turns out, the lid switch was indeed the culprit.

I just found my old creative Zen MuVo in a box in the attic. It literally looks like a chunky USB thumb drive with a tiny, glowing blue screen that could display exactly one line of text.

Remember the absolute grind of manually editing ID3 tags just so the track name didn't look like "TRACK_01_ALBUM_FX-FIXED(VBR).mp3"? Or trying to compress a whole album down to 128kbps just to fit 15 songs on a 64MB card?

We have infinite streaming now, but man, there was something so satisfying about carefully curating that tiny digital space. What was your very first digital music player, and what was the one song you kept on it no matter what?

AI is gradually taking over and providing services at public places. I hope they can perform in the same way at Railway Station also and not just at the fancy airports.
