one man with a chatbot, and $3,000 just outperformed the entire pharmaceutical discovery pipeline.
we are going to cure so many diseases.
I dont think people realize how good things are going to get
I sat down with Miriam and David from the Google Maps team to talk through and play around with the new Google Maps experience, it was awesome to see Gemini in action and learn from the Maps team!
Introducing our biggest upgrade to @googlemaps since the original launch, featuring Ask Gemini (with personalization), Immersive Navigation, and much more!! 🗺️
Google Maps just got its biggest update in a decade, powered by Gemini! 🗺️✨
Here’s a quick look at the two massive new features rolling out:
🗣️ Ask Maps: You can now chat with Maps like a friend. Ask complex questions like, “Where can I charge my phone and grab a quick coffee without a line?” to get instant, personalized recommendations.
🚗 Immersive Navigation: A massive 3D visual overhaul for driving. Get crystal-clear lane guidance, see transparent buildings to prep for tricky turns, and hear natural voice directions that actually help.

Do you find you're getting the full benefit of openclaw using it on a VPS?
I tried the VPS route for a couple of weeks. I really needed browser automation so I tried the openclaw chrome extension locally pointing it to the remote gateway using the Tailscale URL but the connection was too unstable. I had to SSH tunnel for the relay URL as changing that setting was ignored.
❓What's the best domain registrar to use?
Squarespace takes ages to propagate DNS changes. When I requested a transfer code, they said the wait is "up to 24 hours" - So I decided to move all the domains. Was only using them since they bought Google domains.
"AI can't do real debugging"
It took be a bit longer to in install CLAWDBOT. I spent a couple hours debugging my Telegram connection which was silently failing.
Logs show "telegram setMyCommands failed: HttpError: Network request for 'setMyCommands' failed!"
I installed Claude Code on my VPS and diagnosed it in 5 minutes: obscure IPv6 fallback bug in Node v24's fetch implementation.
Gave me the exact sysctl commands to fix it.
I'd still be googling if it wasn't for that.
Time to start the proper setup and experimenting what this thing can do for me.
-------
In case you need it:
sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1 && sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1
To make it persist across reboots, also run:
echo "net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1" | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf
echo "net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6=1" | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf
Then restart the gateway:
systemctl --user restart clawdbot-gateway
Apple Watch doesn't have a stress monitor. The usual choice is to buy another device or 3rd party app. Instead, I created an iOS in about 4 prompts with #Gemini 3 in around 10 minutes. Complete with links to scientific papers and a great design! Now to verify whether it's working correctly.
Summary: This is a complete, real-time 3D Starlink visualizer. It uses Three.js for rendering, Satellite.js for orbital physics, and fetches real-time TLE (Two-Line Element) data from CelesTrak (with a robust fallback if the API is unreachable).
Features:
Real-Time Physics: Calculates the exact position of satellites for the current second using SGP4 propagation.
Realistic Earth: Custom GLSL shaders render a dynamic Day/Night cycle, specular ocean reflections, and moving cloud layers.
Performance: Uses InstancedMesh to render thousands of satellites efficiently at 60FPS.
Live Data: Attempts to fetch the latest Starlink fleet data; falls back to a stored snapshot if CORS/network fails.
Interactive: Zoom, pan, and rotate around the globe. Hover over satellites to see their ID and altitude.
Prompt: Build a 3d satellite visualiser for starlink satellites by using data to position the satellites in real-time and track their position in real-time around a realistic looking planet earth.
