Code Explorer 🗿

You get one choice: Become immortal, but continue aging forever OR Stay physically 20 forever, but live only an average human lifespan What do you pick?

This would let users keep watching and browse recommendations at the same time → Much smoother experience overall. @YouTube this would be a great addition.

Suggestion: Make the “Suggested Videos” panel independently scrollable. So the video stays fixed when the sidebar is scrolled. (See Image 👇)

Watching YouTube on desktop has a UX issue: If I scroll to browse suggested videos, the main video disappears and comments take over. I don’t want to stop watching — I just want to explore recommendations. (See images 👇)

This would reduce friction a lot. Right now: • Users must turn on auto-rotate • Rotate their device manually • Then switch it off again An in-player rotate option keeps the experience seamless and consistent — especially for longer videos.

X supports 16:9 videos (interviews, clips, etc.) but there’s no in-app rotate option in the video player. You have to rely on system level auto-rotate to watch the video in landscape. A simple rotate/fullscreen toggle would make this much smoother. @nikitabier

@rasmalai once the charging is at 100% – the laptop runs off of the power from the socket directly (when plugged in), just like how a PC runs directly from the power source, I guess it saves battery life as there will be a lower number of charging and discharging cycles.

@grok @Mr_Chhinra_ remove all corrupt leaders

Hey @grok Remove the corrupt leader from this photo.

@joshwoodward @GeminiApp Please add a "Swipe to Open" gesture for the sidebar on mobile apps (gemini android, ios and web app for mobile) ​Having to stretch my thumb to the top-left corner just to access history is ergonomically difficult and annoying.

You're a power user on @GeminiApp. What else do you want to see? Top known requests: MacOS app, Projects, and Branching Chats.

This seems like the perfect "win-win" compromise. I’m curious — would a gesture-based shortcut solve this for you ? Or is there a better way to balance this interface ?

My Proposal: Implement a Long-Press gesture on the video player to trigger a context menu that has an option to save the video. This gives power users immediate access without cluttering the UI or de-prioritizing the discovery buttons YouTube needs to promote.

Does anyone else find the current placement of the "Save" button on YouTube mobile incredibly frustrating ?

Wouldn't it be great if X added media carousels for images/videos/GIFs by default, plus an option to toggle between grid or carousel display What do you all think ? @nikitabier

@joshwoodward Never felt there was a need for this — anyway that’s great, but you could’ve just kept the account switcher there and added the button to its left. Now I have to start a new chat first just to switch accounts.

✅ Papercut fixed: Start a new chat, from a chat. You can still go to the left nav to start a chat, but you don't have to. :) Out now on Android and iOS.

@carlovarrasi @GeminiApp Back in Oct, I detailed 3 critical chat management bugs in Gemini (videos included): x.com/code_explorer_… Bug 3 is especially urgent: Deleting a mid-chat prompt via Activity Log wipes all prior prompts (irreversible data loss). Any chance the team could prioritize this ?

Lots of folks asking about this papercut - we fixed it. We added a 'new chat' button in @GeminiApp header on mobile. It's now easy to start a new convo from anywhere in the app without opening sidenav. Back to work on the many other things to fix 👷‍♂️ lmk what needs to be addressed next

Anyone else on Gemini web facing this since update? The search icon no longer opens chat search — it instantly creates a new chat and then the button becomes greyed out & unclickable. Tried cache clear, incognito, different browsers — still broken. @GeminiApp

@pkdiancraft @Math_World_ did you randomly assume function to be quadratic or is there an explanation/proof for that ?

@Math_World_ f(x+2) - f(x) = x + 1 f(x) = a x² + b x + c f(x+2) = a(x² + 4x + 4) + b(x+2) + c f(x+2) - f(x) = 4a x + 4a + 2b 4a = 1 → a = 1/4 4a + 2b = 1 → 1 + 2b = 1 → b = 0 f(x) = (1/4)x² + c f(10) = 25 + c = 12 → c = -13 f(x) = (1/4)x² - 13 f(0) = 0 - 13 = -13

Have a nice Saturday ☕️
