Hey HN, I built Depressbot – a sarcastic AI "screen watcher" that monitors your work habits and guilt-trips you into touching grass. It sits in the background, watches how long you've been glued to your screen, and delivers increasingly unhinged roasts until you actually step away. Think of it as a passive-aggressive wellness coach with the emotional range of a lobster (which is also the mascot, naturally). I built it with Claude Code over a weekend. The idea came from running an AI automation startup (Geome) where our whole philosophy is: have your computer do work for you so you can spend more time in nature. Felt hypocritical that I was spending 14-hour days staring at a screen building software that's supposed to free people from screens. So I made a bot to call me out on it. A few things it does: tracks active screen time, delivers tiered sarcasm (gentle nudge → concerned friend → full existential crisis mode), and logs your "outdoor breaks" so you can see how badly you're failing at being a human. It's dumb, it's mean, and it actually works. I've been averaging 2 more outdoor breaks per day since I started using it. Would love feedback. What would make you actually listen to a bot telling you to go outside?

Redefining Morality What is morality? Strip away the philosophical abstractions, the religious doctrines, the cultural variations and you arrive at something surprisingly simple: morality is the general consensus of humankind.

Not the consensus of a government. Not the consensus of a committee. Not the opinion of experts or the rulings of courts. True morality, in its purest form, is the aggregated understanding, values, and preferences of every conscious human being on the planet at any given moment.

There’s a thought experiment I keep returning to: if you wanted to create a perfect copy of someone—not their body, but their mind—where would you look?

Not their resume. Not their social media. Not even their journal.

You’d watch their screen.

For a decade we fed the web to machines. They learned to summarise, imitate style, and conjure fluent answers. And yet, something stubborn remains out of reach: how people actually do things. The living, tacit know-how that sits in our hands, our eyes, our pauses — the choreography of expertise as it unfolds on a screen or in a conversation. The internet holds many answers; humans hold the process.

Everyone building toward superintelligence is obsessed with hardware. AR glasses. AI pins. Cameras everywhere. Sensors on every surface.

They’re all wrong. Or at least, they’re all early.

The human body has never been augmented. Not permanently. And it won’t be for decades. We are a species habituated to two rectangles — the phone and the laptop. That’s where we live. Eight hours a day, minimum. Every decision, every intention, every meaningful action flows through those screens.

No electricity. No internet. Just jungle and the mission.

He made technology work in conditions it was never designed for.

Meanwhile, sales teams in 2025:

Still manually copying data between tools.

If Pablo could make AI work in a rainforest with a satellite phone and generator, we can automate your CRM updates.

The technology exists.

Someone just needs to build it for you.

That's what we're doing at Geome.

Your computer works. You go outside.
