Gemini 3.5 Pro benchmark leak just dropped and the numbers are turning heads.
> Reportedly outperforming Claude Fable 5 and GPT-5.6 in internal evals
> Significant zero-shot performance improvements over 3.1 Pro
> Currently in private validation and testing
- Public rollout preparations appear to be underway
- July 17 is the targeted launch date
If the leaked numbers hold, this isn't Google catching up ,it's taking the lead.
Fable 5 just became the model to beat. Gemini 3.5 Pro might already have beaten it.

To anyone saying Anthropic or OpenAI is in trouble, or people there are freaking out, about anything, needs to realize, the millionaires have already been minted.
And many of them are my new neighbors. I’ve met a bunch of them, nice people, not stressed.
Here’s recent sales here in Tahoe.
So no, these folks from the big AI labs aren’t stressed about if you like their marketing plans, or how they message updates, etc.
You can write tweets, make videos, do whatever you want, they’re going to do what they’re going to do.
They are in a different phase of life now.
These are mega-corporations, not startups full of ppl in “founder mode” 😜

Too many people are directionless, giving room for many forms of “ the answer” to their problems.
Go to the gym.
Don’t go to the gym.
Only do compound exercises.
Focus on HRV.
Only walk but with a vest.
Must sleep 8 hours.
Must not oversleep.
Must not under sleep.
No meat.
All meat.
All veg.
All farm to table.
Organic is a scam.
No alcohol.
No sugar.
Natural sugar only.
No Rx drugs.
Yes Rx drugs.
Yes peptides.
No peptides.
No HRT.
Yes HRT.
At some point, we will all realize that none of these are the answer. You are looking to fill a hole because your current life has made you an NPC playing someone else’s game by their rules. It’s their game, not yours that is making you unhappy.
Find your game and go play it.
You’ll probably be happy as a result, do a bit of everything from the list above and will end up living to whatever you’re supposed to - very, very happily.

derek thompsons recent article inspired me to read more about alcohol im shocked by the est impact vs current narrative for instance, 7-14 drinks per wk reduces life expectancy by only 6 mos (!!) moreover, the negative effect is possibly offset by gains from deeper friendships

I made myself a personalized podcast player using @grok 4.5 and @perplexity_ai Computer
It finds the top topics people are discussing on tech and business podcasts, then lets me play a single stream across multiple podcasts by topic.
When you click PLAY DEEP-LINK STREAM, it plays me all the pods talking about China and open source (in the screenshot here)
it's called PODMEME (after Techmeme, which is what i modeled it off of!)
Thanks @AravSrinivas @elonmusk for the harness and model! Cost me 1,100 "credits" on Perplexity -- so $11!
Not sure what it will cost to run this every 48 hours... but, I think worth it.
I might actually output a custom MP4 file for each topic with an audio transition in the middle

hey donuts at openai, listen up
codex app = the developer studio FOR DEVELOPERS, we know it exists, we use it for dev, it keeps the diff and the other dev-y features... you were fucking winning you absolute hubcaps
chatgpt desktop app = for normies to chat AND to work (switch between chat and work)
2 apps is better than this mess you made
