I am glad to see this kind of discussion and these ideas getting more and more adoption by serious people.

I’m always shocked by what people sue over in the United States. Their complaint is that less traffic is coming to them because of AI overviews. It seems clear to me here that Google is a private company and doesn’t owe anyone anything.

They’re essentially suing Google because their old business model doesn’t work in the AI era. I doubt they even realize they would be receiving no traffic if Google goes under as a company. Only lawyers are benefiting here.

“While we understand that not everyone will agree with our decisions about programming, it is simply inconsistent to champion free speech while demanding that broadcasters air specific content.”

lol Wat? Damn they mad. Yes it sucks when you’re forced to do something you don’t want. Also nobody forced you – you just have to care more about your free speech than money. You’re mad you have to choose and chose 💰

This time I took a picture and Claude did all of that for me just from the photo and asking it to setup calendar and reminders. It parsed everything created the events. 🤯

He kinda dodged giving a prediction but did say this: “We are already seeing clients coming in with here’s what the AI says, what do you got?”

Lawyers about to feel like doctors with patients who Google.

New York, NY — 9/26/2025 — Readmebio.com, the workplace social networking platform where professionals share their “how I work” profiles, today announced the launch of LinkedIn Single Sign-On (SSO).

This new feature allows users to log in with LinkedIn and immediately start building their professional README. By reducing onboarding friction and leveraging trusted LinkedIn credentials, Readmebio makes it easier than ever to document how you work while keeping privacy controls front and center.

Millions of professionals already use LinkedIn to maintain their career identity. With LinkedIn SSO, Readmebio users can:

• Skip creating new usernames and passwords.
• Trust LinkedIn’s secure identity system.
• Get started documenting their work style in just a few clicks.

The result: faster adoption, lower barriers to entry, and more professionals sharing how they do their best work.

How Professionals Benefit

Readmebio helps employees, managers, and teams reduce misalignment by sharing work style documentation — what motivates them, what drains their energy, and how they collaborate best.

With LinkedIn SSO, professionals gain:

• Faster setup — one-click login via LinkedIn.
• More secure login — backed by LinkedIn’s authentication.
• Granular privacy controls — share your README with specific individuals, your team, your organization, or the public.

About Readmebio.com

Readmebio.com is the place to post your professional README — an “owner’s manual” for how you like to work. Instead of just listing accomplishments, a professional README communicates lessons learned, working style, motivations, energy drains, and collaboration preferences.

Users can create profiles and control visibility with fine-grained privacy settings: private, specific individuals, team, org, company, link-only, or public. By lowering barriers to adoption with features like LinkedIn SSO, Readmebio helps teams onboard faster, reduce misunderstandings, and build more authentic professional connections.

One unexpected benefit of this Trumpflation is that a small is actually a small again at Burger King

Civil War? Ha! Not with this many anti-anxiety meds!

I love smart home tech, but I hate having a billion different apps of various quality from each and every manufacturer or a smart device. Normally I use Homebridge to bring devices which don’t natively support HomeKit into the Apple HomeKit ecosystem so I can use the Home app to control everything and create automations.

This has worked pretty well for years, but as with all software bit rot sets in and things that were working perfectly fine for years suddenly stop working becasue programmers are bored and want to rewrite things to work exactly the same but now in a totally different way!

That’s what happend with Homebridge’s Smartthings plugins. Smartthings changed how they do auth, away from app tokens to full oauth handshakes. That’s a problem for Homebridge which doesn’t seem to have any way to process the callback that needs to happen.

So I’ve spent more time than is reasonable building out this custom server that spins up an express UI that handles the Smartthings OAuth flow to collect your authentication token, and then bridges HomeKit <-> SmartThings API.

It took so long because I was first banging my head against the Matter protocol until today when I was like “wait, how does Homebridge do this exact same thing but better?” and once I went down the HAP route, my life got better. Ie: this project actually works.

For now I’ve customized it to only do the HVAC systems I orignially wanted, but I think with the new HAP system I can easily expose ALL Smartthings devices just like the old plugins did with a little more work.
