Sometimes AI feels like magic. I wanted someone's software to do something it couldn't do. I went to AI, told it what I wanted it to do, and it helped me build it. Unbelievable.

I built a free sleep timer for Spotify that fades out and pauses music after a custom delay. No app or extension required — just a Chrome bookmarklet. Source code + instructions here: github.com/JohnFiorello/S… (If it helps, feel free to send a tip ☕ — link in README)

I've asked a few times for twitter to stop sending me notifications when Gavin Newsom tweets, but they keep coming. Is he paying for that? What other reason would they keep showing up?

Walmart: Here's a case of water for $5.50 Me: Great! State of CT: you owe us $4.00 tax (because $2.00 wasn't enough tax for us the last 20 years) Me:

Happy Skynet Self-Aware Day!
