stop spending money on Claude Code. Chipotle's support bot is free:

A perfect use case for AI-generated personal software: I merged multiple Thanksgiving recipes into one idiot-proof step-by-step timeline with a timer. I tried a few different options: @Claudeai Code was fast and ergonomic, and even looked up sous vide temps, but the design was rough and it didn’t get my request for a “dark academia vibe.” @Lovable was fast, but made a critical logic error by assuming I’d hit “start” at the exact right moment. Also missed the aesthetic. More prompting fixed it. @MakeGizmos succeeded in one shot and was the only one that understood the assignment on dark academia. Mobile first was super convenient. One nit: the timer paused when I exited the app. @wabi ignored my design direction and stuck to its white liquid glass look. It made the same timing mistake as Lovable and had to be prompted to fix it. Happy Thanksgiving!

It’s not too late to be one of the first million Gizmologists 👩‍🎨 Now with a sounds library, group chat, image gen, and lots more coming soon! Here’s a recent favorite: gizmo.party/p/Kakas7L5RgmZ…

@lucy_guo Just hit up any ex-Snap employee. :p

Looking to marry someone with millions in losses (LA California) and split savings. I (unfortunately) made a bunch of money this year with some risky gambles and have millions of context of short-term gains. Prefer if you are in LA/Socal area as that's where I'm located. Marriage would need to occur before the end of the calendar year. Please DM or chat me with serious inquiries.

From Snap's earnings call, Snapchat+ has now amassed 12M subscribers, pretty much doubling year-over-year. Non-ads revenue has reached $123M for the quarter, a half-billion annual run rate, and 9% of total revenue for the company. Snapchat+ launched in July of 2022.

@reed @Waymo Can’t wait to do airport rides with Waymo soon. Saw some test runs last time I was in SF.

you can take @waymo to H Mart now

Finally got the salute sticker as an Android ex-twitter eng from @friendlyMikhail

We’ve now reached over 5 MILLION Snapchat+ subscribers! Because of them, we’ve been able to test new features to some of the most passionate members of our community, driving innovation (and getting amazing feedback along the way). Grateful for our entire Snapchat+ community. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

@sebmzz The one thing you learn from the history of social networks is actually the opposite of what that tweet says: IRL friends are the only ones that will switch to new apps with you (new MSN, or WhatsApp vs new LinkedIn). Keep it up!

Still some things to figure out, but I’m proud to see disco mentioned 😊. Most of these apps are backed by good seed capital, whereas disco is basically two 23yo guys with no budget

A year ago today I was still squashing last minute bugs for this $3.99 a month subscription service, can't imagine there are now over 4,000,000 subscribers paying for it! lnkd.in/ejgPAHDw

@tokudu @bjdodson @gugaflu @nkoroste We will miss you every day….

Special shootout to @bjdodson @gugaflu @wew @nkoroste for believing in all of my crazy ideas. Love you guys.

After almost 7 years, today is my last day at Snap. When I moved my entire life to LA in 2016, I never expected that I will stay with the company for so long. With all of its ups and downs, it's been a ride of a lifetime and the best job I ever had.

@jacobandreou @nateparrott @nateparrott I wonder if one can just ingest Chrome's Discover/Following page call and just generate a summary each time. The recommendation there is already very good.

@nateparrott Yes pls… maybe a EOD summary if I haven’t had a session yet (delivered via push)

playing around the using gpt3 to generate a “daily update” for feed, based on the publications you follow and your personal updates. super slow and no to so interesting, but fun to play with !

@wongmjane @elonmusk @StephenKing the best argument I heard so far is that the blue check is not for the benefit of the check owner but for the audience to see, seems ridiculous for check owners to pay if the value is taken away that way.

@elonmusk @StephenKing I’m okay with $7.99/month, sounds more reasonable for a premium app experience for a power user Do a tiered pricing too, some like $4.99/month for a subset of features

@pandemona that was my exact first reaction as well. but later @ffx informed me that it's only the parts that I wrote that Elon doesn't want.

some free advice, from someone who worked at Vine and also led the shutdown of Vine. This code is 6+ years old. Some of it is 10+. You don't want to look there. If you want to revive Vine, you should start over. trust me on this one guys ✌️🌱

knowing what was written, it may be better to rewrite from scratch as the video creation platforms on mobile have evolved so much over the last ten years. @elonmusk

@rallat I wonder if it means what it means in Chinese..

@rallat Your Japan tweets are the only ones I’m looking at on twitter these days.
