GOOGLE JUST DID SOMETHING INSANE! They launched their AI data centers into space. This means much less energy and water usage. Google just marked the start of a new era. Please watch:

Right now, learning is broken. You try to learn something online but get nowhere. Duolingo is great, but only teaches a few subjects. Introducing Learnr, the Duolingo for EVERYTHING: getlearnr.com

I'm 16, and I just got into @ycombinator 's Haunted Hacks Hackathon, hosted by @openai, @agent_relay, and useterse.ai We built fully automated post-training infrastructure. Companies increasingly want to own their own AI to cut API costs, ensure privacy, and maintain reliability at scale. Forge (forgeresearch.vercel.app) allows teams to enter a training objective and let a team of AI agents generate synthetic data, validate it, fine-tune a base model of the researchers' choice, and monitor the fine-tuned model's performance in prod, all while continuously improving it. The best part is that the agents communicate with each other, meaning there doesn't need to be a human in the loop. @ycombinator asked for someone to help companies "own their intelligence," and we delivered. @TheLegend321356

Bain & Company: 24% of holiday shoppers plan to start product discovery with AI tools like #ChatGPT, #Gemini or #Claude (via Retail Dive). If your listings are thin, AI can't recommend you. Audit titles, attributes and A+ content this week. #AmazonSellers

#Adobe forecasts US online holiday sales of $275.1B, up 6.7% YoY. Record demand is not record profit: fees, returns and stockouts decide who keeps the margin. Plan inventory and pricing before Black Friday, not during it. #Ecommerce

‘@Tesla just unveiled the long-awaited roadster. It flies. Allegedly being the fastest accelerating car ever, it’s truly extraordinary. But how does it actually work? Learn anything on Learnr (getlearnr.com) - the Duolingo for learning everything.

Hot take: Most brands are not ready for #agentic commerce. AI agents are already shopping on behalf of real customers. Comparing prices. Reading reviews. Making decisions. And most brands' product data is too messy to be chosen. Is your data clean enough for AI to pick you? 👇

Guess how much money companies lose to revenue leakage and fraud.

I consider myself someone who loves to learn. Over the past few years of my life, I have maintained my Duolingo streak while making sure that I'm not just doing Duolingo for the streak - I have to learn. But my questions don't end with Spanish. That's why I built Learnr.

Language learning is dead. AI has unlocked so much for the world, and one of the things that it has become the best at is translation and real-time interpretation. But there's so many skills left to learn. Introducing Learnr - the Duolingo for Everything.

X, here's my story: I started programming in Python and C++ during COVID. I built little games, a calculator, etc. I won the debate state championship and finaled at nationals twice and started building Tilt in the summer of my freshman year as a social media platform for debaters. I scaled it to 5k users, retention sucked, so I pivoted to Ravioli, a F2P alternative to Kalshi with real prizes. I knew that Ravioli's ceiling was far below the industry-defining, world-changing company that I could not let myself live without building, and started looking elsewhere. Around the same time, a bad migration took down Ravioli's AMM trading endpoint for 3 hours during a peak usage period, and I naturally wondered how I could prevent this going forward and researched what the industry is doing now. I asked the founder of Ollama for advice, and he said that the problem is right, but the perspective could be that CI and GitHub Actions are broken for agents. That's where I got together with two of my best friends and started building Antifailure.

#Brands spending 80% of their #budget on acquisition and 20% on retention have it backwards. 🔄 Your best #customer is already in your database. Stop chasing strangers and start nurturing the people who already trust you. Where is most of your budget going right now? 👇

I'm 16 years old, and I just permanently killed staging environments. We built something insane: a disposable copy of production. Not a smaller database. Not a fixture. Production. • Same size, same shape, same load • Every real name replaced • Your change runs there first • On every pull request • Person or agent • If it breaks, it breaks there. Then the copy deletes itself. You watch it fail before merge. A “safe” index takes ACCESS EXCLUSIVE on 48,201,338 rows. Checkout p99 goes 240ms → 4,730ms. The PR is blocked. Staging still says 916 passing, 0 failing. CrowdStrike grounded 5,000 flights. Rogers cut off 12 million people who could not call 911. The tests were green. The tests were not production. Know before you ship. antifailure.dev We’re hiring founding engineers and founding growth. antifailure.dev/careers

Retail media ad spend is projected to hit $100 BILLION globally this year. 🤯 #Amazon. #Walmart. #Target. Every major retailer now has its own ad network. Brands not investing in retail media are handing visibility to their competitors.

September 4th. Mark it. 🗓️ Google Assistant disappears from every Android device and Gemini takes over completely. Every search. Every shopping query. Every discovery moment. Is your brand optimised for the Gemini era? 👇 #GoogleGemini #DigitalMarketing #Ecommerce #Ergode

US ecommerce growth froze in July 2026. 🥶 Not declined. Froze. Brands blaming the market need to look inward. The ones with clean data, great listings and smart tools are still growing. What is holding your brand back right now? 👇 #Ecommerce #BrandGrowth #DigitalMarketing

Reddit just surpassed 130 million daily users. 📊 And Google is surfacing Reddit threads in AI answers constantly. Brands not thinking about Reddit as a discovery channel in 2026 are leaving visibility on the table. Is your brand on Reddit? 👇 #Reddit #SEO #DigitalMarketing

#TikTok Shop sales grew 108% last year and hit $15.82 BILLION. 💰 This year will be bigger. The brands dismissing TikTok as a trend are the same ones who dismissed mobile commerce in 2012. Is your brand on TikTok Shop yet? 👇 #TikTokShop #SocialCommerce #Ecommerce #Ergode

Customers are now asking AI what to buy before visiting any website. 🤖 If your brand isn't showing up in those answers, you are invisible. Are you optimising for conversational commerce? 👇 #AgenticCommerce #GEO #Ecommerce #Ergode
