It's now trivially easy to convincingly replicate virtually anyone's voice with AI. You and your loved ones should develop a password to verify it's you calling them ASAP. Especially if you're even a little bit rich or famous.

Created a script that mounts a Cloudflare R2 bucket as a Volume drive on my Mac. Now I can take my files everywhere I go. And on my Mac it just feels like a native drive of the machine. Uses rclone & macFUSE. Gist below for you to use π§΅

Holy crap. qmd by @tobi saved me 96% on tokens with clawdbot. Here's how: I have an Obsidian vault with 600+ notes. When my AI assistant needed to find something, it had to grep through files and read them whole β burning ~15,000 tokens just to answer "what did I write about X?"

Wow @tobi really cooked with his tool QMD. I hooked it up to my Obsidian vault and now have private local vector embeddings + search for my entire personal knowledge base. Incredibly useful, thank you Tobi! https://t.co/nBsNa276Ki

Since the onset of the pandemic over $2bn has been invested into vertically integrated, micro-convenience delivery startups. Turns out, selling a limited set of fresh items alongside shelf-stable pantry & household essentials at a ~50% gross margin is a great biz model. 1/

PARTNERSHIPS: It's more important than ever to ping your partners and check on them. Not the "heath" of the partnership but the health of them personally and their team. I do a lot of peer sharing and find it invaluable. Shoutout @lynch_darin & @RobEcommerce for their leadership.

Just a quick note about getting water from our brewery. Lots of people have been apologetic about needing to pick up free drinking water. We just want y'all to know that literally nothing makes us happier than to be able to help out anyone who needs it right now. (1/3)
