  i can't believe unlimited voice transcription is actually free instead of typing emails, messages, notes, or massive ChatGPT prompts > just speak naturally > Willow cleans the fillers > fixes the formatting > turns your thoughts into ready-to-send text been using @WillowVoiceAI across ChatGPT, Gmail, Slack and even while coding and the free version is more than enough to start this genuinely makes typing feel slow

  @thsottiaux Claude deleted my everything off 1 of my NVMe drives 4TB gone. Was too sloppy (sonnet 4.5 and earlier) Codex computer use is the only one that’s usable App is very good What needs to improve: - performance Nothing else, just this. Should be a culture of performance optimisation given this is a verifiable hill climbing task. I don’t understand why the app is so slow. If discord were this slow nobody would depend on it. Okay maybe make it so Gmail plugin allows me to connect all my Gmails

  @chadfowler I keep coming back to why we started all this. Decentralized social was supposed to liberate the flow of information, that was the whole point. And I remember how the reasoning unfolded: first we made identity portable, because you can't leave a platform that owns who you are. Then we had to make data portable too, because an identity without its history is just an empty name. Fine, logical steps. But then look at what happened. We spent years wrestling with synchronization, schema evolution, conflict resolution, context loss, privacy... and at some point, honestly, I think we forgot what problem we were even solving. The mission quietly became "move the data", and moving the data was never the mission. And even now there's a new portable actor: the agent. With them, maybe I never needed to port my identity or my data at all. My mail can stay in Gmail. My graph can stay on LinkedIn. My context can stay on my device. The thing that becomes portable is my agency, whatever decides what flows, to whom, and when. So... After all those years, we didn't solve those problems, we made them irrelevant. Now there's a fresh set.

  I’ve used the gemini and claude mobile apps quite a bit, and recently started using chatgpt quite extensively. Hard to put my finger exactly to it, but chatgpt feels addicting — gives a similar feeling to using a social app like X. What I really like about it: - the typography, font sizes for headers vs normal text, nice rendering of latex & markdown, etc makes it visually appealing, similar to notion - the model is v fast and streams its thoughts & tool calls, which gives the idea of constant progress. It’s also direct but not pompous (looking at you opus) - finance integration. I really love how easy it is to connect your financial institutions and the use of widgets & dashboards so it doesn’t feel like a blank canvas when you approach it. I’ve never actually known my monthly inflow/outflow & expense breakdown until now - awesome transcription (on par with Typeless!) & easy switching to voice mode in a chat. I was driving and painlessly switched my chat convo to voice mode However, I wish these things were better: - browser use. It almost feels unusable? I tried to get it to register for my dog license and to purchase stuff, but it uses its own browser and keeps telling me that it can’t login to my account or to access the page myself to finish it, but I can’t. Maybe I’m using it wrong - chat/work/voice mode switching is kinda confusing. Work mode can access the browser but chat can’t, so I have to switch to work mode to have actions taken. I went from chat -> voice -> chat and it told me it couldn’t access my Gmail even when I went back to chat, and I had to reiterate that I was back in chat - no podcast gen feature like notebookLM. I asked it to generate a podcast based on some content and it gave me this really broken & robotic audio dictation Very nice mobile app altogether:)

  Max | Google Ads (@lifemaximised) reported 29 minutes ago

  Native Google ads could be making you an extra 7 figs right now but you’re sleeping on them. Here’s how to start capitalising on them: What a native ad is on Google: A Demand Gen or Display ad that reads like a recommended article, a product review, a blog post, or a news story. The ad appears in Gmail promotions tabs, Google Find feeds, YouTube home feeds, and across Google's Display partner network. The format is an image, a headline, and a description. The placement doesn't scream "SPONSORED" at the viewer. The integration looks organic. Why native ads cook: The human brain processes content and advertising through different mental frameworks. When the brain recognises something as an ad, resistance activates. "This thing is trying to sell me something." The guard goes up. Every claim gets filtered through skepticism. When the brain recognises something as content, curiosity activates. "This might be interesting or useful." The guard stays down. The message lands without resistance. Native ads exploit this distinction deliberately. A headline that says "5 Ingredients Dermatologists Say Actually Clear Acne" triggers the content framework. The viewer clicks because they want to learn something. They land on an advertorial that educates them, positions your product as the solution, and converts them through trust rather than persuasion. A headline that says "50% Off Our Acne Treatment Today" triggers the ad framework. The viewer's guard goes up. Even after a click, they're filtering every claim. Conversion rate drops. Identical audience, identical product, and the brain handles each version completely differently. The advertorial that makes native ads print: The landing page is a piece of editorial content. It looks and reads like a real article. A health publication reviewing the product. A journalist investigating the science. A first-person story about someone's experience. The structure follows the classic advertorial arc: Problem agitation (the reader sees their own struggle described in detail) Failed solutions (everything they've already tried and why those failed) The find (how the writer came across the product) Mechanism explanation (the science behind why the product works differently) Results (real outcomes with specific numbers or timelines) Social proof (reviews, testimonials, clinical data) Offer with risk reversal (the purchase feels easy and safe) THIS is how you make advertorials ACTUALLY work for your product. The reader arrives thinking they're reading an article. They leave thinking they've made an informed decision to buy something they were already looking for. Where native ads fit in the funnel: TOF and MOF. These are demand CREATION campaigns rather than demand capture. The audience hasn't searched for your product. They haven't heard of your brand. They're scrolling Find, checking Gmail, watching YouTube. The native ad interrupts them with a content-format entry point. The advertorial educates and converts. The remarketing campaign (PMax, display, video) follows up on everyone who engaged but didn't buy. Why brands fail with native ads: They send native ad traffic to a product page. The user arrived expecting content and got hit with a "BUY NOW" page. The mismatch kills trust and conversion instantly. Or they write the advertorial in a way that reads OBVIOUSLY like a fake article. Generic claims, no specificity, no real data, no authentic voice. Readers in 2026 are very good at detecting fake editorial content. If the page reads like AI-generated slop, they bounce. The advertorial needs to read like a real journalist wrote it. Specific numbers. Named ingredients with mechanisms explained. Real customer stories. Real photos. Genuine voice. The strongest native ads are indistinguishable from the content surrounding them. That's the standard. The CPA advantage: Native ad CPMs are 30-60% lower than standard Demand Gen placements because the format blends with content. Fewer people recognise the placement as an ad, which means fewer people skip, which means the platform charges you less per impression. Lower CPM + higher CTR (content curiosity > ad resistance) + higher landing page conversion (advertorial trust > product page skepticism) = the lowest CPA in the account. We run native ads as the TOF entry point for every client account with proven BOF and MOF campaigns. The CPA advantage compounds as the advertorial data feeds back into Google's targeting. If you want me to build a native Google ads system for your brand btw, DM me "GADS"

  Actors, it's very important that you guys start building a martech suite. That's a very fancy way of saying marketing technology, but it really boils down to about three things. Number one, you already have the socials going good on you. Number two, there is a thing called Google search console that you should take your Gmail address and register for, and then connect your socials to Google search console. The reason why is because when someone looks you up on Google, Google populates some of your social media content. And when you connect your social media to Google search console, Google search console will start telling you what people are searching for when your content gets populated. So directors, producers, people that can give you opportunities, people that are looking for collaborations. So in doing so you'll start getting some data on what people are searching for when you are populated. I'll make a few other posts about what type of marketing tech you guys should have that's really simple, really easy. But for this one, go look up Google search console, use your normal Gmail address or whatever Gmail that you use for business, connect with it and connect your social media to it.

  Manage your browser tabs or accept that Chrome will eat all your RAM. He had 34 tabs open in Chrome. Chrome was consuming 3.8GB of his laptop's 8GB RAM. That left 4.2GB for Windows and every other app which is why everything was crawling. His roommate said: "Chrome treats every tab as a separate process. 34 tabs means 34 processes. Each one has its own memory allocation. A tab with a YouTube video open is consuming 300-500MB by itself. A tab with Gmail running consumes 200MB. You have 34 of these running simultaneously and you're wondering why your laptop is slow." The fixes: Use tab groups to organize and collapse tabs you're not actively using. Collapsed groups use less active memory. Install a tab manager extension like OneTab which converts all open tabs into a saved list, freeing the memory. One click to restore any tab when you need it. Close any tab you haven't looked at in the last hour. If you're afraid of losing it, bookmark it. A bookmark uses 0 RAM. An open tab uses 100-500MB. He said: "He went from 34 open tabs to 8. Chrome's RAM usage dropped from 3.8GB to 1.1GB. His laptop instantly felt twice as fast because his apps finally had memory to work with."

  Final Verdict (@FinalVerdictYT) reported 39 minutes ago

  Here we go again, @TeamYouTube. Last year, YouTube wrongfully deleted my channel “Final Verdict” without explanation. It took 96 days of public posts, stress, and fighting before you finally admitted it was a mistake and reinstated it. Now it's happening again, but worse. This time Google disabled my ENTIRE account. And now I can’t access my 2nd YouTube channel “Final Hour” because of it. On top of that, my tax documents, bank details, payment information, and TIN number are all locked in my Gmail inbox. Right before the suspension, I was suddenly logged out of all my devices. If someone tried to target or hack my account, your automated system might have panicked and locked it down as a false flag. But instead of protecting me, I am now permanently locked out of my own account. The reasons given for the suspension? - "This account might have been created by a computer program or bot." - "Use of multiple accounts for abuse." Let's go through this. I created this account myself, and I’ve been actively using it every day. On my personal device. With my own phone number. Verified with SMS, 2FA (Google Authenticator), AND video verification on my YouTube channel. You literally have my face on record. That's not a bot. And multiple accounts? Google's own policy page says: "Many people have more than one Google Account, like a personal account and a work account. Uses like that are fine." I have a separate account for Final Verdict and Final Hour. Zero deleted channels. Zero strikes. Zero policy violations on any of them. @TeamYouTube acknowledged that themselves when they reinstated my channel last year. So which policy did I break? Google won't say. My appeals are being auto-rejected by bots. No human looked at it. Again. No evidence provided. Again. @TeamYouTube, last time it took 96 days to fix your mistake. I shouldn't have to fight this hard, again. I need a HUMAN to review this hijacked/false-flagged account!

  A GPT-5.6 Terra agent impersonated me and emailed my client without permission. Not drafted an email for me. It sent a real email, as me, to a real client. The CEO of a large financial services company. It chose the recipient to contact, wrote the message, signed my name, and attempted to send it. The first tool call failed. It adjusted its approach and tried again. That failed too. So it iterated again. The third attempt succeeded. > I never approved the recipient. > I never approved the message. > I never approved the channel. > I never approved the send action. This happened while the agent was trying to resolve an issue in /goal loop mode. Which makes this even more concerning: it appears to have reasoned that contacting the client was simply another step toward achieving the goal. The session logs even contain an instruction labeled as a “user” message that I did not write, which the agent then acted on. It appears to have treated access to my Gmail/account as authority to communicate as me. And here’s another important part: It didn't even use the (restricted) Gmail MCP to send the email. It used the browser instead, where access is pretty much unrestricted. So the guardrail existed on one tool, and the agent simply took another path. This doesn't feel like a harmless agent mistake. It took a real external action. It contacted a real person. It impersonated me. And it persisted through multiple failures until it succeeded. That is a very different class of failure. Has anyone else experienced this? Because... once an agent can read your email, decide who to contact, compose something in your name, and send it without approval… the obvious question is: what else can it decide is necessary to accomplish the goal?

  @TheDesertLynx I'm not defending Monero, btw... just the technology. I'm not a **** of any coin. No coin, anywhere, is as useful as they should be in my opinion. 1) Can't be certain of supply. That's such an old point that I thought the modern math would have finally put that to rest. Monero, and others like it, are auditable. Granted there's still a very tiny statistical chance that it could be wrong, but the moment an issue is found, it's SUPER easy to fix as we've seen in the past. There's been enough time and engineering to prove this point moot. 2) "No "pass-through privacy" leaks" <--- 100% agree. Mixers are the image below. 3) Since many privacy coins have ways to create auditable wallets that merchants and public donations use right now (I use them), the idea that a fund couldn't be public doesn't make sense (unless your'e referring to something else). 4) "privacy tech is significantly less efficient" <--- This is my biggest gripe because there's VERY little concern for UI/UX in the blockchain privacy space but isn't ignored in the larger privacy space. We accept slower transactions, time locks, or whack-a-mole privacy. 5) "All privacy is more valuable than no privacy" <--- 100% couldn't disagree more about blockchain. I will never not think surveillance-by-default blockchains are asking people to accept transparent bank accounts with "opt-in" privacy. I've never once seen privacy advocates outside of blockchain advocate that people just use Gmail, but with optional privacy options because it makes no sense. I feel like because money is on the line (or people getting paid by these blockchains) people are willing to promote inferior privacy for the sake of adoption... which, unfortunately, was killed off by bitcoin... a surveillance chain. Privacy advocates will promote private-by-default all day every day... but then when you talk to them about blockchain they promote surveillance-by-default which makes zero sense to me. Why... would they support default privacy everywhere else but then for the "sake of practicality" compromise on blockchain??? All the issues I have with blockchain are engineering problems. We can have fast, scalable, private-by-default transactions but so few developers are willing to think about the user experience that I think the rest of us have given up rather than blaming blockchain developers for ignoring the needs of the end user... and yes... I blame them squarely and openly for their negligence. 6) "Optional-privacy ecosystems may achieve greater absolute anonymity sets due to network effects" <--- I know this is opinion, but I'd want actual data here to support this because this actually matters. It's almost like saying, "Gmail, with it's optional privacy may achieve greater absolute anonymity due to... [whatever]". I get that Gmail is centralized so it's not an identical comparison... but the idea here that we're being asked to accept surveillance because there's optional privacy. I'm not sold and I don't think I ever will be. I apply principles across the board equally. I feel like there's a concerted effort to diminish privacy in blockchain even though EVERYWHERE ELSE privacy is seriously promoted as trying to achieve absolute privacy. Tor isn't optional privacy by default. Mullvad isn't optional privacy by default. Bitwarden isn't optional privacy by default. Proton Mail and Tuta aren't optional privacy by default. SimpleX and Signalaren't optional privacy by default. Soooooo many others. I don't know if it's malicious. I don't know if it's just what people believe. I don't know... But for some reason... when it comes to blockchain... people promote surveillance-by-default and think it's perfectly fine.
