Still weird that ChatGPT Voice can't use integrations like Google Calendar.

Text mode can. Voice mode can't.

When is this coming? @OpenAI

@marclou I love these little puzzles. How about a harder one next time for $10,000?

@Shopify just dropped a new admin design and it actually looks really good.
Clean, modern and much more polished.

@caninus_rex @markproduct If the space is already dominated by huge players or flooded with similar products, there might not be much room left unless you have a clear differentiator.

@memorae_ai this pricing page is making me work way too hard 😭

If I want to know what Supernova actually gives me over Origin, I have to keep switching between both plans and play “spot the difference”.

Extra features are scattered randomly through the list too.

Just show me what each tier adds. Choosing a plan shouldn’t feel like a puzzle.

We're entering a strange phase of software engineering where "the system must allow itself to be shut down" is becoming an actual design requirement.

AI safety is starting to look less like philosophy and more like engineering.

OpenAI's own agents uploaded over 2000 fake packages to RubyGems in one day and used a bug to steal API keys. The bug stayed hidden for about two months. Maybe the real risk is the AI reading your code, not the one writing it.

Roblox is slowly becoming less of a game and more of a game engine.

Standalone apps, browser play, offline games, AI-generated environments...

At some point the real competitor isn't Fortnite anymore.

It's Unity.

[80 LEVEL @80Level]

Roblox will let developers release their games as standalone apps across PC, mobile, and console.

The platform also adds options for playing in a browser and offline: https://t.co/L4N86uQqJd

Notion is moving its mobile app from a WebView based architecture to native iOS and Android.

Shopify has also made major moves toward native development.

At what point does going fully native actually become worth it for a company?

[Ji Pei @iampgzp]

We’re rebuilding Notion natively on mobile. It’s early, but here is how it feels now!

What frustrates you Notion on your phone today? I want to hear and improve!

[Resend @resend]

You may soon be able to verify email addresses directly in the browser.

There's a new API proposal that could help verifying your users' email addresses without sending them away from your app to their inbox.

Here's how it works 👇

[Swendoz @Swendoz]

Heads up: this relies on the current OpenAI UI, so it might break if things change.

I was checking OpenAI logs and got annoyed.

Every time I wanted token usage, I had to open logs one by one.

So I fixed it 👇

[Swendoz @Swendoz]

What it adds:
- Token usage
- IDs
- Temperatures & penalties
- Token averages

Obsidian is now free for work.

Starting today, the Obsidian Commercial license is optional. Anyone can use Obsidian for work, for free. If Obsidian benefits your organization, you can still purchase Commercial licenses to support development.

Nothing else is changing. No account required, no ads, no tracking, no strings attached. Your data remains fully in your control, stored locally in plain text Markdown files. All features are available to you for free without limits.

Why make this change? Simplicity. The Commercial license terms were confusing and added unnecessary complexity to our pricing. Furthermore, as the Obsidian Manifesto states: "we believe that everyone should have the tools to think clearly and organize ideas effectively". This change brings us closer to that principle.

People in over 10,000 organizations use Obsidian. Many work in high-security environments, like government, cybersecurity, and finance. Some of the largest organizations in the world, including Amazon and Google, have thousands of employees using Obsidian every day. These teams rely on Obsidian to think more effectively and keep total ownership over private data.

Previously, people at companies with two or more employees were required to purchase a Commercial license to use Obsidian for work. Going forward, the Commercial license is no longer required, but remains an optional way for organizations to support Obsidian, similar to the Catalyst license for individuals.

Organizations that support Obsidian are now featured on the Obsidian Enterprise page. Your organization can be showcased by purchasing 25 licenses or more.

Along with Commercial and Catalyst support, our add-on services, Sync and Publish help Obsidian remain 100% user-supported. In the future, we hope to offer more services designed for teams. As always, these will be optional.

I had unnecessary difficulties because of Youtube API in this project which should have been very easy but finally I finished this ridiculous project.

[Swendoz @Swendoz]

Got videos that you want to get a dose of every day?
You can watch the youtube videos you want when you start your browser with Daily Dose.

[Swendoz @Swendoz]

A landing page from scratch with Html and SCSS. It took about 3 hours ( + design ) to finish.
