Founder of @infinitearmory, following my daydreams…

[Perry E. Metzger @perrymetzger]

I have said this before, but to those of us using AI systems to get lots of work done reliably and quickly, the people who post online about how AIs still hallucinate constantly, about how they can’t write code, etc., seem equivalent to people trying to convince you that the car you drive to work every day doesn’t exist.

You tell them things like “but I drive a car. I paid money for it. I buy gasoline for it. I could not possibly be working twenty miles away from home if I didn’t have the car?” and they reply that you are imagining having a car, or that you’re lying because you work for a car company.

It is as though these people live in a completely different reality.

@SPA001 Yes, but updated Xii version. Been seen with dev for a long time now.

[jb @jb]

Now who’s training who. Love it.

[Aaron Cannon @AaronLCannon]

I started talking to my co-founder like Claude

[jb @jb]

@bavedikian @BestBuy @FedEx You have a real shit CC company. The “process” doesn’t take forever. They issue an immediate credit for the amount and then do their investigation on the backend. Get a better bank.

[jb @jb]

@Shpigford Why care though? Legitimately people like to use services like Apple’s hide-my-email and many users that use disposable emails are doing it for the same reason. Why not key off mobile phone number instead? More reliable and plenty of APIs to not allow VOIPs like Google Voice.

Imagine being such an insufferable douche to claim “zero tolerance” on social media for how dad’s vacation with their kids with “cAnT GEt TiME bACk” and then boasting in your profile you do Ironman’s 💀

[Chris Boettcher @chrisboettcher9]

I have zero tolerance for dads who show up on vacation, immediately crack and cold one, and then spend hours observing the fun their kids are having from a chair instead of being a part of it.

You can choose numbness or you can choose to make memories. You don't get the time back.

I would use the F outta this. Even as an iPhone Air user.

[Phil Traut ᯅ @SpatiallyMe]

Will we get a transparent wallpaper option in iOS 19? Probably not, as it would totally drain the battery—but I’ve always wondered what that would look like!

Thanks to the talented Om Chachad, aka @TheOriginaliTE, who helped me build this into a fully functional prototype, we can now take a closer look at our “Glass Wallpaper” concept.

This might be my favourite concept yet. The way the iPhone dynamically adapts to its surroundings, almost like a chameleon, reminds me why I love visionOS so much—it just feels more personal. I’d love to see Apple bring more of this into iOS in the future.

@UltraLinx This tweet is so funny because I can’t tell if Oliur is genuinely complimenting Apple, saying the TV hardware is the best TV box (which I’d agree, it is) or if he’s throwing shade on Apple’s naming conventions because their actual digital streaming service is called Apple TV.

[jb @jb]

@johndilworth Oh man, that’s an easy one. Send out 2 separate meeting invites, ones to half of your team and the other to the other half for 30 min apart. Don’t give the meeting a title. Include a hr email address (can be fake) in the invitees of the first one.

[jb @jb]

Another great one: write two groups of co-workers’ names on a random whiteboard. Circle one group and put an X through it. Walk away. h/t @johndilworth for that one.

[Steve 🇺🇸 @SteveLovesAmmo]

If you’re bored at work today just create a resignation letter for someone you dislike and leave it in the printer.

[jb @jb]

As you can imagine, yesterday was annoying AF for me. 😒

[The CyberSec Guru @thecybersecguru]

Meta AI Instagram account recovery is exactly the kind of risk security teams have warned about.
A reported flaw allegedly allowed password reset actions despite 2FA ...not by stealing codes, but by abusing an AI assistant with privileged recovery access.

[jb @jb]

@thecybersecguru And I’m specifically asking because I can share more details about the “workarounds” that ended up protecting me in the end… not that you’d want to publish those details for obvious reasons but I think it helps understand the systems they have (or don’t have) in place.

[jb @jb]

@thecybersecguru Loved the article. Thank you for covering it. Any chance you’d be open to discussing my own personal experience that went down yesterday from a user’s side? I’ve been dealing with this for 15+ years now (user ID 500ish) and it’s been quite the ride, in a not pleasant way.

[jb @jb]

@flyosity Congrats dude!

[jb @jb]

I feel seen

[Harmy @harrrmy]

you’re not autistic you just work from home and it’s making you weird

[jb @jb]

@kyleanthony I hate that you live on the wrong coast now, but you are such a good human, the city is lucky to have ya.

[jb @jb]

@Shpigford It’s called Balatro.

[jb @jb]

Can’t wait for the “sometimes something is so obvious and so late” tweet from him in 18 months talking about how returning to the Intercom brand is the “right” move lmao

[jb @jb]

This is dumb, and exactly what people mean when they say tech CEOs are in a AI craze right now. Giving up on a ridiculously iconic and great brand, with matching logos, domain name, and social handle in exchange for this forgettable slop.

There is 0 reason why “Intercom” couldn’t have shifted to be an AI-first company with the same name. Sad. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
