If you wanna know what it's like to use a computer as an old person just try to use Meta's business and developer interfaces.

You'd think that after sustaining 200 downloads/day for over a month that you'd start ranking higher in the app store but no lol

Apps are no longer a get rich quick scheme and require insane persistence.

Let's see if 1000 does the trick.

A fascinating project. An LLM trained only on data before 1931.

Absolutely incredible

Imagine every pixel on your screen, streamed live directly from a model. No HTML, no layout engine, no code. Just exactly what you want to see.

@eddiejiao_obj, @drewocarr and I built a prototype to see how this could actually work, and set out to make it real. We're calling it Flipbook. (1/5)

At an aquarium in South Korea, after closing time, some clever little otter pups help their grandpa tidy up their toys. As a reward, he gives them ice cubes

#Artemis2 Splashdown in ~5 hours.

Imagine how insane it would to to watch Earth get closer and closer over 3 days.

[Jean-Baptiste Bolh @jbbolh]

@mrloldev Wow, founders really are getting started younger and younger 😱

[Jean-Baptiste Bolh @jbbolh]

@elonmusk Next do a graph of human started fires vs lighter started fires. Afraid we may have been surpassed there too 😅

[Jean-Baptiste Bolh @jbbolh]

Penguins get a lot of attention, but chad bird appreciators can see the beauty in pigeons. Cute as hell tbh and they have a nice coo, almost on par with doves.

Comment pidgeon if you agree

[Jean-Baptiste Bolh @jbbolh]

@bryan_johnson Should have listened to some rock n roll. You may have missed out on half of the potential longevity benefits 🤷‍♂️

[Jean-Baptiste Bolh @jbbolh]

@qasimbizs What about Duolingo for language learning?

[Jean-Baptiste Bolh @jbbolh]

Somebody visited our site from roblox 🔥

Pivotal moment for our company

[Jean-Baptiste Bolh @jbbolh]

@jakezward I know someone who did this, and eventually got de-indexed by google.

This is temporary unless you have some improvement layer in there based on metrics like clickthrough rate, time spent on page etc.
