I think we are now becoming AI response editors. The amount of times I get โ€œyouโ€™re right!โ€ From these models after correcting them is astonishing

Why could Aug. 5 be shorter than 24 hours? Tuesday, Aug. 5 might see the Earth rotate faster than average. See how much shorter the day might be.

Is there any other ai code generation tool that comes close to Lovable? Bolt, VS code with copilot, ChatGPT are quite far from what Lovable can do because none of them can really understand context the same way Lovable can which makes all the difference.

Figma's error message saying "Copy failed. Your selection might be too large for the clipboard."

Lies, @figma.com, just lies! retrying 2 or 3 times works so it's kind of like "how about now?" :) Copying as PNG is so convenient that I rather try it multiple times than using the export option.

76 Percent of Drivers Are Saying No to Automakers' Grubby Subscription Services: Study The study found that while drivers aren't completely opposed to subscriptions, the value just isn't there yet in automakers' connected services push.

The Smartcar report showed that drivers aren't opposed to subscriptions but want more value out of it.

Do you currently pay for your car subscriptions? Do you know about its benefits?

How many software companies end up spinning up a small team that can โ€œmove fastโ€ while the rest of the teams continue with business as usual? Iโ€™ve seen this happen at multiple companies already.

Mobility is a fundamental human right. EV Drivers are now forced to find alternative ways to charge their cars. If they do not own a charger at home, they now need to spend time outside of work to charge. Workers are being punished unnecessarily. โ€œJust get a new car/jobโ€ is a privileged solution.

๐Ÿš— 76% aren't subscribed to their automaker's connected services
๐Ÿ”— But close to 60% use external car apps
๐Ÿ” More than half of drivers would share their vehicle data if they see clear benefits

If things didn't go as planned today for you, you're not alone. Someone broke the login page for ChatGPT's Sora on a Friday afternoon.

I'm sorry for whomever is having a hell of a Friday at work.
