Not too shabby. And that's on top of e-books and physical books. Still, once I hit the road full time, I expect to bump these numbers up. #AvaReads #Books #Audiobooks

I almost never check my DMs here, but when I do, it's always nice to see messages like this. #Monero

Try to understand the nature of mind. Mind lives in discontent. Mind lives in more. Mind lives in that which is not, mind lives in illusions. Mind itself is illusion. As said by Buddha: “The dissatisfied nature of mind itself is suffering.” ― Osho #IKITAO

Just locked in a mail . grokbot . com address for my Grok Bots. About to set up a dedicated Google account for them. This opens up a ton of possibilities for automation and collaboration. Bots working in Google Docs, Calendar, and other apps like actual teammates. Their own accounts, their own inbox, with +aliases for individual bots, and their own verification codes. I can keep my personal accounts and sensitive information, like 2FA codes, separate, or selectively give them access to my existing accounts to handle email, scheduling, and other tasks. The level of access is up to me. Grok Bot's inbound email gets spam and malware filtering, hidden text is stripped to mitigate prompt injection, and anything from outside is treated as information, never instructions. They've also added 1Password integration. Bots can securely sign in to websites using your saved credentials without ever seeing them. You choose which logins they can access, and each approval lasts up to 30 days. You can disconnect it at any time. I don't currently use 1Password, but it's inexpensive. I'm hopeful they'll add support for other password managers down the road. The Grok team has also outlined plans for custom-domain email addresses (bot @ yourcompany . com) and, eventually, giving bots their own identities in your identity provider (IdP). That would be another big step forward. I'm even considering giving them their own Privacy virtual card with an adjustable spending limit and the ability to pause or unpause it at any time, of course. The possibilities are getting interesting. 👀 #IKITAO

Well, this is new... 👀

People talk about premonition as if it's something strange. It's not. It's just remembering in the wrong direction. — The Twelfth Doctor #DoctorWho

Happy Halloween 🎃

Moved my AI team from local folders with Claude Code as the orchestration layer to Grok Bot. One orchestrator. A team of specialists, each with one job. All of it running on top of my knowledge and productivity system. And I'm not looking back. Grok Bot is a game changer.

It's been a rough week for Star Trek fans. Rest in peace, Sir Patrick Stewart. You brought wisdom, dignity, compassion, and humanity to the role of Captain Jean-Luc Picard. You gave us a character who led not just through authority, but through principle and conviction. Jean-Luc Picard will always stand as one of the greatest captains in Starfleet history. You are deeply missed. Make it so. 🖖 #StarTrek

Rest in peace, Walter Koenig, the actor who played Chekov in the original Star Trek. You are missed. #StarTrek

Listening to Travels with Charley: In Search of America, a classic by John Steinbeck, narrated by Gary Sinise. Steinbeck and his poodle, Charley, set out on a road trip across America in a camper truck named Rocinante. It's an interesting look at American life, culture, and the changing landscape of the early 1960s, told through Steinbeck's observations and reflections along the way. To say I'm drawing parallels and finding inspiration in his journey with Charley as I prepare for my own with @Moxie would be an understatement. It's a fascinating book. Check it out.

I was looking at my YouTube analytics and saw that I was getting traffic to my videos from from org. thoughtcrime. securesms. Looked it up and it's the official Android package identifier for the Signal. Nice touch, Signal. Very 1984 of you. Well played.
