Thomas Paine publishes an open letter in the Pennsylvania Evening Post, under the name “Republicus,” which advocates for the name “United States of America” for the new nation now emerging.
This is the first time such a term has been used.
JD Vance is not changing the conversation about Israel in the US. He is changing the entire paradigm:
He is reminding the Israelis that they are alone and - though he doesn't use this word - much disliked internationally. Israel should not undermine the only strong friend they have left.
"If I was in the cabinet of the Israeli government, I might not be attacking the only powerful ally that I have left."
And, he is reminding them of their utter dependence on the United States.
Because 2/3 of the weapons that have protected Israel (!!) "have been built by American hands and paid for by American tax dollars."
As a point of comparison, no one in the Biden admin ever spoke like this about Israel when Netanyahu was blowing through Biden's so-called red lines on Gaza...
Mobile does not function same as web, feels like different product. In terms of transcription accuracy. Also the keyboard is annoying, seems like it tries to force the habit of using dictation but sometimes I’m in a public place and don’t want to dictate. Makes me want to uninstall the mobile keyboard and app.
I don’t think ppl understand how big this is for the entire app dev industry or even just businesses in general...
My thoughts in an article coming soon
Apple just approved Poke, the first AI agent on its Messages for Business platform.
This means businesses can now use AI directly inside customer conversations for support, automation, and general communication. It’s a notable step toward AI becoming a built-in part of how brands interact with customers on iOS
I had my poke help me setup a daily Claude code and codex memory update for poke to stay informed. Had to land on emailing myself a json + Md file via scheduled task/routine.
That’s feels like just one example. As soon as you feel how good @interaction is you want to connect it to everything.
But the bot is just like “here’s the link to our integrations”. Then I proactively strategized and pulled out of it a way to do what was needed.
Say hi to the new Poke! 🌴
Now officially approved by Apple to text on Apple Messages.
As the first and only AI agent. Chat now: https://t.co/VIWYU64dUI
Hey @grok when are you going to add the grok button to a business x profile?
Would be great to click a button and get a summary of a tool/Startup

Insane stat of the day: California almonds use roughly 3–5.5 million acre-feet of water per year, depending on methodology.
That's ~4-7x more water than all data centers in North America used combined in 2025.
