100% agree.

A little foil hat conspiracy i supposed, but the big companies saw nobodies become incredibly wealthy over the last decade, and this is the new companies protecting their position by limiting technology.

How do you go about editing via ipad, I'm just getting into this whole world, and am finding it difficult to figure out a system.

I use an app like Terminus or Prompt to access a remote server. I have a keyboard and a mouse for my iPad Pro.

Its cool to see them get it right .....sometimes

This is cool, but feels like a work around that will be patched.

It's just using Cloudflare features for their intended purpose. How is it a workaround? You can even have Gmail configured to send as this email which would be the actually useful thing here because this is just blogspam of the CF feature.

This is not a workaround, this is one of their main product that one should not rely on because Microsoft with their aggressive SPF, DMARC and DNSBL have almost all CF's IP blacklisted. So mail forwarded to your personal MSFT mail account is not guaranteed to arrive and is clearly logged in CF dash.

You're actually right. So, this method might not be considered a long-term solution. The article I linked to is actually part of an online guide where I explain how to set up a company step by step. Readers currently at this stage don't yet have a mailbox (like a Google Workspace subscription with a custom domain). A few steps later, I'll explain how to use Gmail with a custom domain. Then, they won't need email routing. This solution is very useful in this regard.

No, this isn't actually a workaround. This is exactly what email routing does. You can also create a catch-all email.

There are many situations where "forwarding incoming emails to another address" is sufficient. For example, if you don't yet have a mailbox, if you manage several different domains, etc.

Fair, thank you everyone below pointed out I was wrong :)

That's okay I'll try this out in earnest. Thanks for sharing

Wasn't there a story about healthcare companies letting AI determine coverage? I can't remember.

Computers have been making decisions for a while now. As a specific personal example from 2008, I found out that my lender would make home loan offers based on an inscrutable (to me and the banker I was speaking to) heuristic. If the loan was denied by the heuristic, then a human could review the decision, but had strict criteria that they would have to follow. Basically, a computer could “exercise judgement” a make offers that a human could not.

I just made a python script that I keep running that updates when there is a new post from one of my feeds. Feed list is stored locally.

You should post the repo/gist

People prefer no ads, that's why its easy to dip into chatgpt get a good enough answer and avoid the rest of the enshitification of every website.

I recently made a little RSS feed reader, and its barebones lives on my machine, and is powered by python.

I never could get into any of the RSS reader software it all seemed very happy to put random things in the feed that i didn't care about. A strict timeline of things i want to read is all I want. If there is nothing new there is nothing new and I'm okay with that.

Thanks for the write up and read.

Something else i HIGHLY recommend is subscribing to youtube channels Via RSS. You ACTUALLY KNOW WHEN SOMETHING IS NEW. I've gone way down on my youtube watching rabbit holes since I only engage with it when I have a new video.

Why build something near or semi near conflict?

Valid question, but just look at the huge amount of R&D / the tech companies in Israel. Even if it’s near conflict, I don’t think companies care

A company doesn't care. An army does.

A tale as old as time.
