@MorganGermani @venturetwins Could I get an invite please?

@venturetwins If anyone needs a Sora 2 invite code, let me know! But if I get flooded with replies again.. I need you guys to be patient please -.-

My favorite new trend in the Sora app is putting Pikachu in every movie. This is “Saving Private Pikachu” 👇

@AlarmDotCom is alarm.com down? Having issues setting status and now logging in. Do you have a status page?

Jahmyr Gibbs wins me my league on a meaningless carry in the 4th quarter of a game that doesn't impact the Lions playoff picture. Neil Degrasse Tyson will never know joy like this

@mbacarella @jbrucj It’s possible those 8 have zero opinion on the subway at all in which case they correctly did not raise their hands for either question.

My kids first VT game. Big win go Hokies! 🦃

@oledoteth This is unique to Las Vegas, Disney Land/World, and practically no where else.

American customer service is super attentive & friendly compared to Europe. I assume it's because of the whole tipping culture, as well as the fact the US is a more consumer-oriented society. Servers really go the extra mile to make sure customers are happy, which I enjoyed.

I'm European. I recently visited the USA for the first time since 2018, hitting up Las Vegas and New York City. What I witnessed left me stunned. 15 American oddities I still can't wrap my head around:

@jh3yy Is that an induction cook-top underneath? It looks cool too, which one is it?

Wait. This will make me a better developer, right?

@SearchDataEng @AdamMarfione @rowancheung lol “renting in WV” is listed alongside living in a car. Harsh.

The job market is already bad. The jobs that exist ask for too much ( time , effort , skill ), and. they don't give enough back ( money ). Thousands of AI based lay offs are already happening , and in the next years 10's of millions, then 100's of millions. ( Those jobs will not come back ) . People will move in together, they will live in their cars, they will rent in WV, and other such areas. Govt will step in , probably 5 years too late, by which time many will be completely destitute, and many also will exit the world. We don't need AGI, for any of this to happen.. As it is , most jobs barely require any intelligence, and definitely not genius. The economy runs on people moving papers, and documents, and pretending to work. Our best hope is the AI Cooperative, and Communal living.

Sam Altman on what you need to do to survive in the age of artificial intelligence. "You are about to enter the greatest golden age of human possibility..." To thrive in that world, the skills that matter most are: - Deep familiarity with the tools - Staying abreast of changes - Developing a great intuition for AI tools, where things are going, and how to make use of it - Resilience and the ability to learn things fast and evolve yourself with technology I know most of this stuff is a pretty big no-brainer for anyone paying attention, but here's the takeaway: AI upskilling and keeping up with AI are possibly the most important skills in the world right now. And the most fascinating part is that new AI developments and tools come out so fast that everyone is constantly learning. I'd be willing to bet that if you're a complete beginner but spend 3 months of dedicated learning, you'd be fully caught up to power users. In other words: Spend 3 months learning → work 2-4x faster and future-proof yourself. There's so much opportunity for anyone who just starts now.

@nickgerli1 I imagine a lot of people are moving money out of savings accounts because they can get 5% interest in a high yield account. Really shouldn’t leave money in the crappy BofA 0.01% APR savings account - it’s highway robbery. move that junk to Vanguard and make 5%

Discover Financial, the 6th largest credit card issuer in America, just reported a massive spike in defaults. Their net charge-off rate - an indication of how many accounts are deemed as "uncollectable" - spiked to 5.7% in early 2024. The highest since the GFC. 📈

Last January, I noticed something peculiar in my 2yo’s bedroom that - after a year of obsessive reporting - led me to a profound cosmic revelation about what’s even possible in our universe. A 🧵.

@CA_DMV your appointment site is broken. It’s throwing CORs errors so I can’t complete the form to confirm an appointment.

@thdxr Google cloud… - mysql - Big Query has a console for saving queries - looker studio

does anyone know a tool where i can - connect my db - save queries for my team to run - view the queries as charts i know there are a lot but i can't find one that's minimal and feels good to use we just want to look at certain numbers every day

Shopify Editions is back with another 100+ product updates. visit for details; scroll for some of my favs 🧵 shopify.com/editions/summe…

Today, I rejoice; for Google will finally… FINALLY stop reminding me at literally every turn that universal analytics is sunsetting for GA4. 📉🪦📈

ios17 Safari "removes tracking from URLs as you browse in Private browsing" - So `gclid` and `utm_` params are automatically removed from URLs before the browser makes the request? Is there any more official word on this? youtu.be/GYkq9Rgoj8E?t=…

@adamwathan Lot of folks work on Shopify.com, @uno7 did serious heavy lifting on that home page 💪 especially the webgl. But yeah components are from many folks. Seeing an issue?

Do I know anyone who worked on the Shopify.com redesign with Tailwind?

@shailesh17 @etrade 😅Looks like the file is on E*Trade’s servers! Someone should tell them there’s a pretty sizable initiative to ban TikTok due to privacy and media influence concerns right? Also, not great to load any 3rd party tags in an admin. I get it for marketing pages but this is admin!!

@potench @etrade Haha 😂 maybe that stuff is injected from a virus on your machine 😂

🤔 Debugging @etrade website cause I can't upload a transfer file and I see "tiktok ola category is undefined" console logs. Maybe I'm glad that upload didn't work after all?
