  Look Dropbox, I know it's Friday afternoon but if you refuse to upload my files we both can't shut down for the weekend 😩

  @JessMarinDavis Canada is having significant information problems. Young people should be taught how to internalize an information cycle of the nature of Gmail, Google, Docs, Word, Dropbox, X. It is mostly older people commenting.

  Let me explain what just happened… An AI just launched that eliminates all marketing jobs. Not some of them. All of them. SEO. Social media. Content writing. Ad creation. Brand design. Pitch decks. Community management. Reddit posts. Email campaigns. All of it. A marketing team costs $200K to $500K a year. An agency costs $10K to $20K a month. A freelance designer charges $5K per project. This does all of it. Every single function. For almost nothing. Backed by General Catalyst. Jeffrey Katzenberg. Executives from Dropbox, Stripe, and Google. $7.5 million in funding. Thousands already using it. And it has an API. Meaning other AI agents feed it work automatically. AI writes the copy. AI designs the assets. AI posts it. AI optimizes it. No human ever touches it. A full marketing department. End to end. Automated. A week ago AI replaced coders. Before that writers. Before that customer service. Now every marketing job. All at once. From one launch. Every single week another AI drops and another career becomes a subscription. And it’s not slowing down. It’s speeding up…

  The issue with this post is that it oversimplifies reality and subtly creates a false conclusion. Yes, companies like Google, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, Adobe, NVIDIA, Intel, Uber, Dropbox, Cloudflare, and Spotify all use Python, but that statement is technically incomplete. Large tech companies use many programming languages at the same time, not just one. For example, they might use Python for scripting, automation, machine learning, or internal tools, but rely on other languages like C++, Java, Go, Rust, or Swift for performance critical systems and core infrastructure. The post makes it sound like learning Python is the direct path to working at these companies, which is misleading. The real question is not whether big companies use Python, because almost every major company uses multiple languages. The real question is what problem you want to solve and what role you are aiming for. Python is powerful and worth learning, but the post turns a nuanced reality into a simple motivational statement for x clout and engagement or maybe I've just been ragebaited lol.

  @rseroter @Dropbox Dropbox still at 87GB before the fix is wild. Mono repo size creep is silent until someone's waiting an hour to clone on day one.

  I run 5 unattended 24 hour laundromats, raining 5 grandkids, and have too many ideas. And currently spending too many late nights diving into the AI world. Some minor accomplishments so far have been: : Set up Open Claw named Bob : Reorganized all my Dropbox files into 9 main categories : Had Bob provide an LOI for a complicated CRE purchase. Including environmental issues. : Any updates to the CRE LOI I just talk into Telegram and it updates the history. : Currently building a Business Continuity Plan. This will include all leases, contacts, insurance etc etc. : Side note. I just copied all my Leases into a folder and got a spreadsheet of all the details including renewal dates. : Analysis of last 1/4 and last years refunds for concerns at my laundromats provided in charts. : Working through 5 steps at a time to build the business income. : Used CoWork to update 22 FAQ’s on my website and Service on GMB specific to each laundromat location. Next small steps: : Load all the parts manuals for my equipment and compare to my inventory in Sortly to update where the parts are used and which parts are obsolete. : Continue to work on Bob providing daily report of all of my systems. SimpliSafe ( ran into some issues with this), RING cameras, Lorex cameras, Woosh filter monitors, ATM balances, TV’s, vending machines and changers. So far I’m not building and shipping products but making my own operations smoother is the goal.

  You need to store 10 billion small files (1-10KB each). Block storage costs are $100K/month. How will you reduce storage costs? [Real problem at Dropbox]

  Right several things this time: 1. Managed to fix the audio commentary. 2. No music or game audio on the vod 😡🤬 3. Now I need to work out how to un submit a streamlabs ticket. 4. Downloaded Dropbox in order to store my 90GB 😱 of stream footage. 5. There's more, a lot more. 1/6

  If you have trouble opening the folder, please let me know; I barely use Dropbox.

  @stephanlivera @kixunil Great episode! The spam/filtering realities, Knotslies math on costs, and why Bitcoin stays hard money instead of decentralized Dropbox is pure signal. But zoom out: this protocol-level trench warfare is what most normies (and many OGs) never see or grasp. They think Bitcoin is just "digital gold" or a payment app. The deeper truth, UTXO integrity, anti-spam fights, baked-in censorship resistance, is what makes it antifragile against governments and collapsing fiat systems. Yet the jargon builds a wall. Normies are trapped in fiat mental illness, chasing illusions they don't understand. Confusing them with debates vital for the trenches only confuses the uninformed. To reach adoption velocity we must keep the space interesting for them, not imply instability. Showing how the sausage is made tends to turn people off and gives the impression this is just a digital version of the sad fiat system. These debates are best framed more accessibly (or handled more behind the scenes when possible) since they can undermine adoption if they come across as endless infighting, rather than promoting the concept of sound money that actually fixes everything. The awakening is slow. Years ago everyone thought we were nuts. Today (17 years later), maybe half get the basics. Math + time will do the rest but why shoot ourselves in the foot? -CryptoTruth-

  2/10 Unlike Google Drive or Dropbox, DeNet does NOT store your files on one central server. Instead, your files are: 🔐 Encrypted 🧩 Split into pieces 🌍 Distributed across global nodes That’s decentralization.

  @senatorshoshana Just think it through. No admin. Read only access to your data. Dropbox-style writes only. It's not hard to lock it down, you just need to be thorough.

  @lefttailguy It's really only MSFT who would have a shot, right? Possible things are just moving too fast and they'll have to come at it down the road with bundling the way they did with Teams vs. Zoom/Slack and OneDrive vs. Box/Dropbox

  @nobulart Maybe a glitch on dropbox, bec. you opened my Black Swan file on dropbox, as I understand. Access permission on dropbox means permission to edit file.
