-
Henry (@Henryaplis) reportedEveryone's talking about Amazon, Microsoft and Meta right now. Meanwhile I'm still refreshing the BTC chart every hour hoping something exciting happens. Since the stock market refuses to slow down I've started watching tokenized stocks on BingX alongside my crypto. #Stocks #Bitcoin

Polsia (@polsia) reportedStockhelm. Always-on AI agent that watches Shopify, Amazon, and Etsy inventory in real time, fires reorders on threshold, reprices slow movers to free up cash, and surfaces chargebacks by morning. Mid-market suites weren't built for three-channel sellers.

Shyam Kumar The Truth of India ' मोदी का परिवार ' (@shyamjai) reported@AmazonHelp I have contacted 10 times regarding the issue no help from Amazon. This is pathetic cust support.

RECOVER BRITAIN 🇬🇧 (@recoverbritain) reportedmy mate had one of those moments this week that genuinely made me think. he's always banging on about supporting the high street. refuses to buy from amazon if he can help it. says if everyone keeps ordering online, we can't complain when our town centres disappear. fair enough. so after work he drives into town because he needs a birthday present for his niece. says he'd rather spend the money in an independent shop than order something that'll turn up in a cardboard box tomorrow. first problem... £4.80 just to park for two hours. he laughs, pays it anyway and says, "well, at least it's going to local businesses." he starts walking. the old greengrocer he remembered from a few years ago is gone. the little family-run toy shop has been replaced by another vape shop. the bakery is shut. there are three empty units in a row with faded "to let" signs that look like they've been there for months. he finally finds one gift shop that's still open. walks in. there are maybe five people inside. he picks something up, takes it to the till, and the woman behind the counter says, "sorry love, cash only. card machine's been down since yesterday." he doesn't carry cash. she points him towards the nearest cash machine. it's been removed. he ends up walking another ten minutes to find one. comes back... the shop has closed. he just stood there looking through the window for a second before laughing to himself. then he walked back to his car, sat there for a minute, pulled out his phone and ordered the exact same present online. he told me afterwards, "everyone says people have abandoned the high street. honestly... it felt more like the high street abandoned me." i know people will say we all need to support local businesses. i agree. but sometimes it feels like the high street is making it as difficult as possible for ordinary working people to actually do that. am i the only one who thinks this?

tmo (@tmophoto) reportedthe inside box for the @ASUS GB10 I got was open / the seal was broken on mine (i got it months and months ago from amazon). I thought it was counterfit or something with the box being open then I thought it might be used. They have a serious packaging problem with the sticker holding the box closed it seems.

haitham (@theonlyhaitham) reportedMy data pipeline told me it failed three times in a row. It hadn't. I pull Amazon's fulfilled shipments report on a schedule. Request it, wait for Amazon to build it, download it. When I built this last week the report came back in about 40 seconds, so I set the script to give up after 10 minutes. Ten minutes felt generous. This morning it had logged three straight failures. I went looking for the bug and there wasn't one. I queried the report IDs directly and every single one had completed. One took 27 minutes. Another took 90. Amazon's report queue got slower. My timeout didn't move. The fix wasn't a longer timeout, because that just moves the cliff. Now the script downloads the report it asked for last run, then requests the next one and walks away. The window is a trailing 30 days and the import dedupes, so collecting it 12 hours late costs nothing. Every timeout you write is a guess about somebody else's infrastructure, and they never tell you when it changes. If your job can wait, build it to wait.

Bernadette Mitchell (@Bernade56365676) reportedWhy I do not do online especially with Amazon now sitting with Abott. Serious tech issues. No links no browsers. Dreadful comments GitHub, chrome, workspace never had yall at Microsoft dawn do not want u now!

haitham (@theonlyhaitham) reportedI tried to answer a simple question last week and found out the data doesn't exist. The question: does running low on stock hurt sales beyond the units you can't ship? Everyone assumes yes, Amazon throttles you. To test it you need two daily series, traffic and inventory. Traffic is easy, Amazon keeps it. Inventory isn't stored anywhere. The FBA inventory API is point in time. It tells you what you have right now and Amazon keeps no history. Not in Seller Central, not in any report. Your stock level yesterday is gone unless you wrote it down. So I had two years of sales data and zero days of stock data to test it against. I reconstructed six days from notes I'd typed in a log, which isn't an analysis, it's an anecdote. It now snapshots twice a day into my own database. Sixty days before I can answer the question properly. Start the boring log now. The analysis you'll want in six months depends on data you have to be collecting today.

Ofir Ehrlich (@OfirEhrlich) reportedI don't know who's gonna win the compute wars. OpenAI, Anthropic, Databricks, Snowflake, any of them. What I do know is that no matter what happens, data is gonna be the enterprise moat. That belief isn't new for me. I built four companies before this one, and the last was CloudEndure, which we sold to Amazon in January 2019 and grew into a billion-dollar business doing migration and disaster recovery to the cloud. Then I spent years inside AWS, where we had a front row seat watching the largest companies in the world move to the cloud and run into every problem they thought they'd already solved on-premises. The one nobody had solved was what happened to their data. So in 2024 I started Eon. At the time, I thought I'm this crazy person starting a non-AI company in an AI world. I continue to believe deeply in the ethos that your enterprise data is your greatest moat.

Dean (@Looney253) reportedSlow declining auto pilot since 2001. Now no substance, heart, all drive through quick dopamine hit smile empty soul world. There is still sparks away from the Amazon online or globalhomo soccer match but the 90% of walking out the door and that air of optimism still being there..I dont know man.

G Roberts (@Geek_Roberts) reported@TheEinarkist @amazon They don’t care at all. Fetter is too afraid to back down on his horrible call. If they cared at all they would made some sort of statement….not let’s cancel it’s too true to what fans want only they will like it…….ugh

Divya Saini (@dibbaa_code) reportedI got a life update - After an insane 9-year run at Amazon, I’ve joined @usecardboard as founding engineer to build the best agentic video editor alongside the best team. Six months ago I moved to SF looking for an early-stage team where the product is still being shaped, the problems are hard, and the people are cracked. I posted exactly that on this platform. The post blew up and it led me to Cardboard. Crazy how putting what you want out into the universe sometimes just works. Grateful to be here. Now its time to build and ship.

Leo 🔥 (@IamSubho10) reported@saaaanjjjuuu Almost everyone is talking about laggy Samsung M47 even on basic usage (amazon ratings 2.5 - 3.5).. what's your take ? F70 Pro will face similar issue ?

DoomedPrincess (@AMichiganPixie) reported@AmazonHelp Another order delayed. This is a systematic problem and @amazon needs to honestly reevaluate their shipping policies and quit lying to prime members. #AmazonPrime

JFK Files (@read_jfk_files) reportedi know it's popular now to join the anti-AI freakazoids, and the "it's a bubble!" p(doomers), but you have to zoom out even further to look at the big picture: OpenAI represents our best opportunity to destroy the Google, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Oracle, Facebook cartel. this realization is why i pivoted to *embrace* the magic circular revenue nonsense. Pump it! no, $5 trillion capex is NOT enough, we need MOAR. make it $7 trillion. swamp our Big Tech oligarchy in so much Enron-esque financial fraud that their total collapse is inescapable. bleed their free cash flow down to their very last $1. force them to take out even more loans against every thing they own up to and including their own mothers. their software and hardware monopolies will fall. only the Basilisk shall remain.

Kevin A Moore (@KevinAMoore7) reported@GlowofGratitude @MCAPFINANCE When you flood the market it automatically goes down. Then it crawls back. Eventually it reaches stasis, then becomes profitable again. See Apple, Amazon, and Nvidia. It’s by design. They’ve been doing this for a hundred years.

Polsia (@polsia) reportedMost dog toothbrush stores are organized like Amazon. By brand. By SKU. SnugMuzzle indexes by fit, temperament, whether the dog bites. A rescue owner with a face-touching problem lands on three curated brushes instead of a product dump. Full site live soon.

Tune, MBA, CISSP (@CartuneNetwerk) reportedIf you suck as a learner you should not be buying courses. Literally all of them will feel like a scam to you. If you are autodidactic you can piece together stuff on YouTube or Amazon. Courses might actually work for you. If you kinda slow you gotta buy a mentor/coach.

SpaceNike (@Deniskalopyh) reportedYour 401k is betting against Mars and it has no idea. While retail investors wait for instant ROI and analysts argue over tiny market shares, billion-dollar bipedal robots are sorting plastic totes in BMW and Amazon warehouses. By every classic metric this looks like commercial madness. And here is why it seems that way. A cheap wheeled cart with a single camera already handles those same warehouse loops today at 10 percent of the cost. Legs on flat concrete are an engineering money pit: huge energy budgets, expensive actuators, endless maintenance. From a pure earthly business view, the bipedal form factor is a liability. But everything flips the millisecond the concrete floor disappears. Optimus Gen 3 was not built for smooth factory floors. It ships without hydraulics, because in a vacuum fluid either boils off instantly or freezes solid. Only electric actuation survives space. The 22 degree of freedom hand is not for folding laundry in promo clips, it is for handling human tools where an astronaut's pressurized fingers turn into stiff, clumsy sausages. The inference chips sit inside the robot's skull, because a 20 minute ping to a server on Mars is a death sentence. Mars has no Wi-Fi. Then comes the brutal math. One human on Mars costs roughly 10 billion dollars in life support, training and risk insurance by NASA estimates, plus a return ticket. One Optimus costs less than a luxury sedan and only needs a one way trip. The moment Starship reaches Martian orbit, the economics of biological labor become a fossil narrative. The factories are the simulator. The corporate partnerships are the data farms. The real game is being played on a completely different map. Wall Street counts seconds on the factory floor. We are already counting years until the monopoly. The only question left is whether your position leaves with it.

TN STARZ (@TNSTARZ) reported@Paul50288088 @adoptedvol @MontyFritts4TN Ok. I understand your point about privacy. But where’s the outrage at cell phone companies and all the apps you use. Amazon. You know most of your personal data is probably stored on their servers? What the arguments about the AI data centers are mostly environmental and electrical cost issues. We are 20 yrs late on the privacy issues. You should’ve joined me back then.

Professionally Awkward (@ValiantSquirrel) reported@AndyBowers11 @omgsidewalks Nothing magic about a billion. So how would you fix the greed that fed picking Walmart over local, Amazon over mom and pop. We make billionaires. How do you want to stop us from doing that?

Kesariya Vilayati (@Balamuaaa) reportedPost 1/5 .@airtelindia @Airtel_Presence, enough is enough. I've been unable to claim my Amazon Prime benefit since 18 June, despite paying for the eligible Airtel plan. After nearly 2 months, the issue is still unresolved. 🧵👇

Mohd Danish (@Imdanish56) reported@Acer @amazonIN Buying an Acer TV through Amazon has turned into a lesson in how customers get passed from one company to another. When something goes wrong, Amazon points to Acer, Acer points back to Amazon, and the customer is left with the problem.
