I gave Claude one sentence.
"I have $1,000. I want to earn $100,000. Give me your honest take."
It didn't give me fluff. It gave me a real plan.
Here's exactly what I asked π§΅
ChatGPT has quietly built a file on you. You've never seen most of what's in it.
Every message you send feeds it. It studies your patterns to map your personality and habits, things you never actually told it.
Here are 15 prompts to pull up everything it has on you, and wipe what you never agreed to:
There's a coding agent with 160,000+ GitHub stars that costs $0.
Multiple 2026 benchmarks now show it matching Claude Code head to head.
Here's what it actually is β and where it still falls short π§΅

The honest read: Claude Code still leads on deep reasoning, unfamiliar codebases, and hard architectural changes β many developers keep it as their escalation path for the toughest problems.
But for day-to-day coding, "free and 90% as good" is now a real option.
Have you tried OpenCode? π

It's part of a bigger shift. Gemini CLI (free, 1M token context, 1,000 requests/day) and Cline (free extension, 8M+ installs) are also closing the gap.
The pattern across 2026: free and open-source agents are catching up to paid frontier tools fast.
If you have a Gmail account, you need to read this.
Google's AI now scans your emails and attachments, bank statements, tax files, medical letters, all of it. It turned on by default, and there's a class-action lawsuit over how.
Here are 5 moves to shut it off, the switch is hidden in two places:
You spent $400 on a smart garage door opener.
You paid Chamberlain another $30 for a myQ hub to make it "smart."
Then in November 2023, Chamberlain flipped a switch and blocked every third-party app from talking to your own garage door. Home Assistant. Apple Home. Google Home. SmartThings. IFTTT. All dead overnight.
Chamberlain's CTO Dan Phillips called it "unauthorized usage." He said it would improve the experience for their 10 million users.
Home Assistant removed the myQ integration weeks later and told users to buy something else.
Amazon Key in-garage delivery still works. $1.99 per order. Amazon pays Chamberlain. You don't.
You now own a $430 garage door opener that only talks to one app, owned by one company, that can brick it at any time.
You are renting access to your own garage in 2026.
Now meet ratgdo.
A free and open source Wi-Fi board that plugs into your garage door opener and gives you back local control. No cloud. No subscription. No Chamberlain.
Built in 2022 by an IT professional from the Adirondack Mountains named Paul Wieland. He reverse-engineered Chamberlain's Security+ 2.0 wireline protocol and built a device that speaks it natively.
He named it ratgdo. Rage Against the Garage Door Opener.
He hoped to sell 100 units. He sold tens of thousands.
The New York Times profiled him in December 2025. The Verge, Ars Technica, and Hackaday all pointed readers straight at his board.
1,264 stars on GitHub. GPL-2.0. Firmware pushed four days ago.
Here is what ratgdo gives you:
- Local open, close, and status control over your own Wi-Fi
- Works with Chamberlain, LiftMaster, and any Security+ 2.0 opener
- Native Home Assistant, Apple HomeKit, Google Home, and Alexa
- Real-time door, obstruction, light, and lock state
- Web-based flasher, no toolchain needed
- $62 for the finished board, or under $10 in parts
- Firmware updates for life
Here's the wildest part:
Paul did not stop at the garage door. He launched a company called RATCLOUD. Rage Against the Cloud. He is building the same fix for the rest of your locked-down smart home hardware.
Chamberlain: $30 controller, blocked third-party apps, 10 million captive users.
ratgdo: $62 board, works with everything, four days since last release.
One IT guy in the Adirondacks vs. a Blackstone-owned corporation with 10 million customers.
Still on GitHub. Still GPL-2.0. Still yours.
But DO NOT install it. Chamberlain deserves your $30 for the privilege of blocking you from your own garage.

@unusual_whales This highlights why rigorous AI safety testing is becoming just as important as model performance.
