Luke (@lukecodez) reportedPlayerZero just dropped their Engineering World Model and it's kinda insane $20M from matei zaharia (databricks), guillermo (vercel), dylan (figma), drew (dropbox) + Foundation Capital the problem: debugging is chaos because nobody has the full picture. support sees tickets, sre sees infra, devs see code. everything's fragmented. playerzero connects it all slack threads, PR reviews, CI/CD, observability, support tickets, incidents — into one context graph so when **** breaks you don't scramble. you just know. plus it learns from every incident. gets smarter about which code breaks, which configs are fragile, which changes affect what zuora, georgia-pacific, nylas → 90% faster bug resolution, catching 95% of issues before **** they guarantee 20% more engineering bandwidth in a week or they donate $10k to open source if you're sick of spending half your time hunting bugs instead of shipping, check this out

ZeroBANG (@Z3R0B4NG) reported@Pirat_Nation Does the EU also force Google/Samsung to keep the Android OS compatible for 10 years? 2013 Android 8 phone here, bit of OLED burn-in, battery still fine! Problem is Dropbox, or my Moms hearing aid config app are saying NOPE to the ancient Android 8 OS, forcing me to upgrade.

Sam :) (@SamB_46) reported$20 to whoever sends me a Dropbox audio file of the set bc I know they’re gonna take down whatever recording gets put on SoundCloud

Stanley (@Golf_Stats) reported@LIVGolfComms Can you fix the R1 and R2 Reports for this event in Dropbox? The files have zero length.

Mutt (@MuttMetaX) reportedLet me break this down. An AI just launched that replaces every marketing job. Not some. All of them. SEO. Social media. Content. Ads. Branding. Pitch decks. Community management. Reddit posts. Email campaigns. Everything. A marketing team costs $200K–$500K a year. Agencies charge $10K–$20K a month. Freelancers $5K per project. This AI does all of it—for almost nothing. Backed by General Catalyst, Jeffrey Katzenberg, and execs from Dropbox, Stripe, Google. $7.5M in funding. Thousands already using it. It has an API. Other AI agents feed it work automatically. Copy is written, assets designed, posts scheduled, campaigns optimized. No humans required. A full marketing department, end to end. Automated. A week ago AI replaced coders. Then writers. Customer service. Now marketing. All at once. With one launch. Every week another AI drops. Another career becomes a subscription. And it’s not slowing. It’s accelerating.

Ryan McCain (@rmccain_cns) reportedShadow IT used to mean employees running Dropbox without IT approval. Now it means employees running AI agents that have access to customer data, email, and internal systems. Same problem, different stakes. The liability exposure is not comparable.

Seph🌟 (@_Necr0sis_) reported@SClassYvan @ibejiggly Tbf they also use dropbox, Telegram, and MediaFire. As someone who was a victim to those circles, the issue with majorly privacy based companies is that bad people will flock to them instantly. There are completely normal people who use MEGA, BUT (1/2)

Cryptosailor (@robertdavid010) reported@zmanian The issue was not focusing on the actual innovation being done in the Cosmos eco, & instead getting wrapped up in crypto casino degen hype. Eg. @Jackal_Protocol delivers on a decentralized 'Dropbox' @gitopiaDAO delivers on decentralized 'GitHub' (all Cosmos project should use)

Nas (@Nas_tech_AI) reported1. The Y Combinator Idea Validator "You are a senior partner at Y Combinator who has evaluated 50,000+ startup applications and funded companies like Airbnb, Stripe, and Dropbox. You know within 5 minutes whether an idea has real potential or is a waste of time. I need a brutally honest validation of my business idea before I invest a single hour building it. Validate: - Problem clarity: is this solving a real painful problem or a 'nice to have' that nobody will pay for - Market size estimate: how many people have this problem and how much would they pay to solve it - Existing solutions: what are people currently using and why is my approach meaningfully better - Willingness to pay test: 5 questions I can ask real people today to confirm they'd actually buy this - Unfair advantage check: what do I personally have (skills, network, experience) that makes me the right person to build this - Business model clarity: how exactly does this make money subscription, one-time, marketplace, or ads - First 10 customers: who specifically are my first 10 paying customers and where do I find them - MVP definition: the absolute smallest version I can build to test if people will pay - Kill criteria: what specific evidence in the next 7 days would prove this idea is dead - YC verdict: fund, pass, or pivot with the single most important reason Format as a Y Combinator-style application review with a brutally honest score out of 10 and a clear go/no-go recommendation. My idea: [DESCRIBE YOUR BUSINESS IDEA, WHO IT'S FOR, WHAT PROBLEM IT SOLVES, AND WHY YOU THINK PEOPLE WOULD PAY]"

nancy (@veilofbeing) reportedhe said it was a problem with dropbox not syncing right away but ever since i asked him to email me with the mail, the mail suddenly appears in the folder right away lol
-
Kiran J. Holla (@kiranjholla) reportedOK, I've had it with @OneDrive. The sync is so atrociously bad that it just slows down my entire laptop. Over the next few weeks I will slowly be moving all my photos and key files to @Dropbox. Hopefully, Dropbox handles voluminous data better.
-
Bocamax (@Bocamax1) reportedI want Grok to win. But it's useless about 90% of the time I try to use it as a free user. Dropbox got rich by offering limited free access. Gemini works 100% of the time. OpenAI works most of the time. Anthropic works most of the time. Cleary xAI is in fiscal trouble.

Rober (@robsoto1511) reported@MEGAprivacy would be nice if joplin could sync with mega or proton their options are onedrive dropbox and the joplin server

Sean (@jishaochen89766) reportedLast night, I tried Obsidian at home. Download the software, install, use the extension "remotely save", and the problem came again... I don't know how to sync the file from Dropbox... So I restart again.....create a file folder and rename it set auth...refresh it still no sync
