Technology talk with working memory.
The gist
Rebuild follows technically fluent conversations about programming culture, mobile platforms, AI tools, hardware, and the business pressures around them. It often begins with a small setup detail or travel anecdote, then widens into careful talk about how technology actually changes work and habits.

About Rebuild
Rebuild is a Japanese-language technology show built around long, agile conversations rather than neat segments. It is informal, but rarely vague. The show’s best moments often begin somewhere ordinary: a new recording room, a microphone arm, a New York trip, a cold front, a pair of Ray-Ban Meta glasses, or a phone feature someone has quietly depended on for years. Then the conversation starts moving. Small usability details become evidence in a bigger argument about platforms, incentives, and what tools are actually good for. Apple, Google, OpenAI, NVIDIA, AMD, Android, iOS, Gemini, Claude Code, Codex, and GPU policy appear as parts of the same working environment, not as isolated news items. The pace is quick. The patience is in the reasoning. Rebuild can spend time on Android split screen, iOS shortcuts, Tasker, Samsung DeX, and Pixel music recognition, then shift into Apple Intelligence and the privacy implications of using Gemini through Google infrastructure. AI is not treated as magic dust. It is tested against writing, code review, manga reading, wiki building, Jira tickets, pull requests, translation, customer support, and personal workflow automation. The show is also comfortable with industry drama when it matters: the OpenAI leadership crisis becomes a discussion of board incentives, Adam D’Angelo, Quora, Poe, reputation, and the limits of public explanation. GPU export controls become a way to talk about tariffs, China policy, H20 chips, NVIDIA, AMD, constitutional limits, and strategic dependency. Guests broaden the range without changing the texture. 山田きゅうり brings manga, AI translation, San Francisco, Brutus, and the afterlife of AI-themed fiction into the room. ゆかさん adds lived mobile-platform comparisons, New York observations, CES, smart glasses, ticketing friction, and weather that audibly presses into the recording. ランブルさん brings a sharp read on OpenAI and the business realities around technical infrastructure. なよさん pushes the show toward AI agents, generated knowledge bases, competitive programming notes, K-pop, and language learning. Rebuild suits people who like technical talk with room for side roads, but who still expect those side roads to lead somewhere concrete.
Made for: For Japanese-speaking listeners who follow software, AI, mobile platforms, gadgets, and internet business closely enough to enjoy dense, referential conversation. It especially suits people who compare tools through real workflows rather than launch-day claims.
What sets it apart: Rebuild stands out by connecting practical tool use to larger industry structure without sanding off the conversation’s informal rhythm. It can treat a phone shortcut, a manga workflow, and GPU export policy as different surfaces of the same technological shift.

The hosts open by recapping yuka's month-plus stay in New York, including near-daily subway commutes, a trip to Flushing's Chinatown that felt 'completely China' rather than a typical Chinatown, and a running observation that many NYC establishments are cash-only, which they suspect functions as informal tax evasion since cash payments leave no transaction record.

Hidden gemNaoyaは、CodexのMacアプリがClaude CodeやCodex CLIより使いやすい理由として、右側にdiffが出続けるUIと、tmuxやiTerm2での貼り直し作業の不要さを挙げます。サプリメントのURLを渡して成分分析させたり、マグネシウムの上限を見ながら朝夜の服用を決めさせたりと、プログラミング以外の用途に広げているのも具体例です。ObsidianのローカルMarkdownディレクトリを読ませてwikiを再構成させる使い方も紹介され、後から得た知識を過去ページに反映できる点を強調します。後半では、XGやハーツトゥハーツ、IVE、K-POPの日本語版・カバー曲の文脈も触れます。
