I'm tempted to setup an auto responder to emails saying
"before we talk, how many r's are there in strawberry?".
So. much. cold. outreach.
Open five online stores in new tabs.
Same hero. Same free shipping banner. Same three icons. Same popup.
Most ecommerce looks the same because it starts from the same few templates.
The stores people remember, you'd recognize with the logo covered.
Your best Black Friday customers already pay you every month.
Most subscription brands spend BFCM chasing new buyers and give their subscribers nothing.
Try a holiday add-on in their next box, offered a week before the public sale.
No ad spend, and they already trust you.
Salesforce expects 20% of holiday ecommerce traffic this year to come from AI agents.
This is the first Black Friday where a real share of your visitors aren't people.
Quick readiness Q: can an agent tell from your page alone what each plan costs and when it ships?
I genuinely think this AI character was the first time I actually fell for AI without any real doubt. I still doubt it even now. I keep thinking this guy is just trolling making a point.
Wait, what about privacy?
I get they need training data, but having eyes and ears in your house 24/7 sounds horrible.
Who’s on the other end?
I’d want a locally run model on mine, not some centralised service with a direct line to my hardware, or at least the option.
From @JoannaStern's great video review of the @1x_tech Neo of today (she makes it clear this isn't what's shipping in 2026).
For now, it's all remote operated and it's *still* struggling a little to do basic stuff.
This isn't crapping on it, it just that this stuff is HARD.
“Casual sex” as a phrase is inherently dishonest.
Sex by definition is never casual.
The modifier “casual”, doesn’t change that, it manipulates you into creating a new mental concept that otherwise doesn’t exist in reality.
The biggest flaw in common feminist sexual dynamic arguments, is that it ignores objective biological incentives.
Men can’t get pregnant.
Women can.
Work backwards from there and it explains everything.
You can’t remove this hardwiring from DNA.
