🗣️Jony Ive on why curiosity is the foundation of creativity

Jony Ive says that openness and curiosity aren’t just traits, they’re the core of how he works today. “Being truly open, inquisitive, and curious has become the very basis for all that I do… Having a genuine relish for being surprised and for learning is fundamental to creating.”

🔸 But he notes that in traditional education or large work environments, curiosity isn’t automatic, it requires intention. In big groups, people gravitate toward the measurable and the known, because it feels safer and more socially acceptable.

🔸 The problem: focusing on being right kills the impulse to explore. Curiosity matters more than correctness, it’s what leads to new ideas.

🔸 Ive says the joy of learning helps quiet the fear of trying something completely new. But that only works if you actually listen: “Great ideas can come from the quietest voice… and I worry how many ideas I’ve missed because I wasn’t listening.”

Curiosity creates. Constant talking prevents it. The discipline is in choosing silence long enough for new ideas to surface.

The Engine of RaaS: AI Agents
AI agents are the core driving force enabling the RaaS model. They are defined as 'systems capable of autonomous reasoning, adaptation, and executing tasks traditionally requiring human intervention.' It is this capability that drives the transformation towards RaaS, making software not just a tool, but a direct deliverer of outcomes.

Adobe Animate is frozen. Rive is what Flash should've become.

Adobe Animate is officially in maintenance mode. Here's why Rive is the closest thing to what Flash actually was — design, animation, and code in one tool.

Steve Jobs and his Thoughts on Flash
2010 April 29th

Steve Jobs penned a controversial open letter titled “Thoughts on Flash” while he was CEO of Apple, criticizing Adobe Flash and outlining why it would not be permitted on Apple’s iOS hardware. Jobs’ reasons included poor security, high energy consumption, a lack of touch support, and a claim that Flash was effectively a closed system. Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen described the letter as an attack. Publications initially had varied responses to the letter, though tended to agree retrospectively that Jobs was right.

Rewriting Project Claw Code

> Someone inside Anthropic, got switched to Adaptive reasoning mode
> Their Claude Code switched to Sonnet
> Committed the .map file of Claude Code
> Effectively leaking the ENTIRE CC Source Code
>
@realsigridjin
was tired after running 2 south korean hackathons in SF, saw the leak
> Rules in Korea are different, he cloned the repo, went to sleep
> Wakes up to 25K stars, and his GF begging him to take it down (she's a copyright lawyer)
> Their team decided - how about we have agents rewrite this in Python!? Surely... this is more legal
> Rewrite in Py
> Board a plane to SK🇰🇷
> One of the guys decides python is slow, is now rewriting ALL OF CLAUDE CODE into Rust.
> Anthropic cannot take down, cannot sue
> Is this "fair use?"
> TL;DR - we're about to have open source Claude Code in Rust
