    You meet people who can seemingly eat gigantic amounts of food and stay skinny/lean. You meet people who seem to spend lots of money but manage to save & invest a lot of money. I think these are similar types. Ingest calories & spend money socially, in visible ways; but otherwise they do very little eating/spending It's the girl who will scarf down four slices of pizza at the end of the night out. It's the dude who picks up the dinner/drinks tab for the group and gets friends nice gifts but has a fat Vanguard brokerage account and doesn't even have an Amazon prime membership. Most people's caloric consumption and financial expenditures happen in private, that's where they do the most harm to themselves

    @EODHappyCaptain @LEGO_Group I had something similar with Amazon. Item was shrink wrapped even. It was filled with garbage. Amazon did not fuss at all in making a reimbursement. Which makes me think, they have a known problem.

    We need to finally do something to get Amazon to take down that horrific defamatory book Milo posted about @ConceptualJames. It has to violate some core rules. I publish on Amazon and it cannot be acceptable. I won't link yet, but we need options. It should be illegal honestly.

    @iamjshep3 @Dwhatevur Considering that twitch still isn't profitable I ain't surprised. Just waiting for them to finally give up and add a full on 18+ section to try and milk as much money till amazon realizes and shuts it down.

    @AmazonHelp @amazon I genuinely want to understand what is going on. Why has this issue still not been resolved despite my reporting it immediately . I request you to arrange the delivery immediately or issue a refund. I am expecting a clear explanation . @amazon

    If this changes how you think about the brands you buy on Amazon, one ask. Repost the first post so the next person about to pay $79 for an "Engineered in San Francisco" product made in the same Dongguan factory as the $19 version sees this before clicking "Buy Now." Follow @jackcoder0 I break down the hidden supply chains, factory economics, and quiet pricing structures behind the brands, platforms, and products most people trust without questioning.

    I listed a button for sale on Amazon. The AI changed it to a cookie, wrecked the listing and made it un-editable. Amazon is a hot mess behind the scenes with massive errors happening every day.

    Way too many @amazon drivers are so lazy and entitled that they'd rather just dump people's packages on the lobby floor than walk 20 feet further to the mailroom, while completely ignoring customer instructions because it's not their problem. It did not used to be this way

    @AmazonHelp @amazonIN @amazonIN Asking me to wait for nearly two months is not a reasonable solution. Since I no longer wish to wait, please allow me to cancel the order and issue a full refund. I need to purchase the item from another seller instead.

    @amazon customer service employs the old “wear ‘em down until they give up” method. It worked. I’m buying this item elsewhere.

    It is the year of our lord 2026, and @AmazonKindle still hasn’t found a way to let you custom sort collections on Kindle devices. I should be able to create the equivalent of a “playlist” when I’m reading a book series that spans multiple titles published over multiple decades (The Dark Tower expanded universe being a prime example). Alas, I have to reference my curated list on the Kindle app to figure out the sequence of books I should read, irrespective of the limited sort options on my Kindle Colorsoft device. Fix your ****, Amazon. This is a simple, and highly requested feature that takes less than half a day to design and implement.

    Lesson 8: He showed them the private labeling process how a $3.80 product becomes a "brand" in 2 weeks. He told them the process most Amazon sellers use and the process any consumer can use to launch their own product line. Step 1: find the product on Alibaba. Search by category. Compare factories. Request samples from 3 suppliers. Choose the factory with the best quality-to-price ratio and the most responsive communication. Step 2: customize the product. Most factories offer customization at the same or slightly higher unit price logo printing, color selection, material upgrades, packaging design. The buyer provides the logo file, selects the color, approves the packaging mockup, and the factory produces the branded product. The "brand" is born the moment the logo appears on the product. Step 3: order the branded units. The factory produces the order typically in 15–30 days for quantities under 1,000 units. The products ship via sea freight (cheapest, 25–40 days) or air freight (faster, 5–10 days, more expensive). Step 4: list on the selling platform. Amazon, Etsy, Shopify, eBay, or the seller's own website. Professional photos (often provided by the factory or shot at home with a lightbox). Keyword-optimized listing. Competitive pricing typically 4–8x the factory cost, depending on the market positioning. He told them the entire process from finding the factory to listing the first product takes 2–4 weeks and costs $300–$1,500 depending on the product category, the order quantity, and the shipping method. The business that most people assume requires $10,000–$50,000 in startup capital requires a laptop, an Alibaba account, and a willingness to message factories in broken English at 3 AM.

    password auth for agents is still broken imo. i'm designing a better way for agents to get access to your passwords and function more securely and still have autonomous behavior. been working and thinking about this a lot and i think this is the best way to go about it. it introduces a few concepts: 1. trusted broker - has access to your password manager: 1password, bitwarden, lastpass, vaultwarden. 2. dedicated browser profiles - isolates credentials and sessions by agent and purpose. 3. trusted injector - a lightweight chrome ext that injects the credentials in the page. the credentials are never shown in plain text to the agent, prompt, chat or tool output. 4. model-enforced policy - definines agent's behavior for a specific product or service, like "view amazon orders only". this is enforced through the model via system prompt. the weakest link in all of this that relies on model strength to prevent manipulation but design tradeoff needed for maximum autonomy. 5. human-in-the-loop approve/deny - whenever an agent wants access, a human will approve/deny using their device and has the ability to remember answer. 6. audits and access logging - we log all access by process to easily see usage and identify bad actors. how do you give password access to your agents?

    Corruption Disruption (Fat cats won’t move): There is one consistent standout disruptor, this should not be the case! 2003 Apple invented iTunes, not the music industry. 2005 YouTube scaled user video, not the broadcasting industry. 2006 AWS turned compute into a metered utility, not the enterprise IT vendors. 2007 Netflix pioneered subscription streaming, not the TV and movie industry. 2007 Amazon made the wireless e-reader a market, not the publishing industry. 2008 Airbnb assembled the spare-room inventory, not the hotel industry. 2010 Uber built on-demand ride matching, not the taxi industry. 2012 Tesla installed a global fast-charging network, not the energy industry. 2012 Tesla made the long-range EV something people queued for, not the car industry. 2015 SpaceX made reusable orbital launch routine, not the aerospace contractors. 2017 Tesla turned grid batteries into a catalogue item, not the energy industry. 2019 Starlink put low-latency broadband in orbit, not the telcos. 2021 The Boring Company sold urban tunnels by the mile, not the civil-engineering industry. Incumbents protect the existing margin and the existing unit of sale. Outsiders invent the pipe that makes the old unit look expensive and slow. The pattern is almost never "the industry finally got around to it".

    @ConceptualJames I used to work at Amazon and reached out to people to ask and they said to report it. That is sn option, but we need a higher level action and this controversy might bring the issue to better attention.

    5/ There was another ugly number hiding inside FY26. NewJaisa took roughly ₹13.85 Cr of one-off hits, including ~₹12.38 Cr inventory write-offs. A significant part of that was older-generation inventory and spares that became harder to liquidate after the Amazon exit and Microsoft’s Windows 10 transition. This matters. The reported loss doesn’t represent a normalised operating year. 6/ In fact, management said that excluding extraordinary items, EBITDA was around -6% for FY26. And importantly, EBITDA reached break-even in February 2026. So the sequence is interesting: Amazon disappears → revenue collapses → costs get rationalised → channels rebuilt → monthly revenue starts recovering → EBITDA reaches break-even. That looks more like a restructuring story than a broken business.

    1. He activated Amazon Photos  and canceled his $9.99/month Google One storage plan. Amazon Prime includes unlimited full-resolution photo storage. Not compressed. Not downgraded. Full-resolution, original-quality backup of every photo you've ever taken  unlimited, forever, included with Prime. Google Photos compresses your images unless you pay for Google One ($9.99/month for 2TB). Apple iCloud charges $2.99-$9.99/month depending on storage tier. Both have caps. Amazon Photos has no cap on photos. Zero compression. Full resolution. Every image backed up exactly as your camera shot it. How to set it up: 1. Download the Amazon Photos app on your phone 2. Sign in with your Prime account 3. Turn on auto-backup 4. Every photo you take is automatically uploaded to unlimited cloud storage He had 47,000 photos on his phone, eating 78GB of local storage. He was paying Google $9.99/month to back them up. Amazon Photos backed up every single one  at full quality  for $0 beyond his existing Prime membership. He canceled Google One that evening. That's $120/year he'd been paying for a service Prime already included. Annual value: $120.

    Nvidia buying HuggingFace is amazing and all. But I’m less sure how I feel about Nvidia owning HuggingFace. HF got big because everybody could treat it as neutral ground. AMD. Intel. Nvidia. Chinese labs, open models, & even random researchers. All of it could basically coexist there. HF clearly cared about keeping that neutrality too; AMD and Intel were on the cap table with Nvidia, and even last year it reportedly turned down a $500M Nvidia investment at a $7B valuation because it didn’t want one investor having too much influence. Now imagine that dominant AI chip company owning the place where a huge chunk of the open AI ecosystem distributes its models. Plus, thinking about it: Nvidia is reportedly paying roughly $13B for HuggingFace while HF does around $150M a year. which sounds kinda hilarious. But then again HF sits on a massive piece of AI distribution, and that’s the sweet spot it seems. Millions of developers already go there to find models, datasets, tools and increasingly deploy stuff. Nvidia also already owns a ridiculous amount of the hardware underneath AI. Owning more of where developers discover and decide what to run easily starts making a lot of sense. especially now that some of Nvidia’s biggest customers are building their own chips. > Google has TPUs. > Amazon has Trainium. > Meta has its own silicon. > OpenAI now has Jalapeño. They don’t have to stop buying Nvidia tomorrow for all of that distribution to now matter to NVIDIA. Because even getting less dependent on Nvidia changes the relationship. so yeah, Nvidia probably gets the most out of Hugging Face by leaving a lot of what made it Hugging Face alone.
