There are some things that could improve the situation. Post frame construction, Pre built trusses, macerating toilets that are more forgiving for sewer tie ins, localized instant hot so you don't have to run separate hot water lines, radiant heating so you don't have to run the duct work. It's all tradeoffs though and you aren't going to get a $500k house for $30k.

The other thing holding back progress are building codes and city laws. To be fair a lot of those codes exist for good reason but the inspection and permit system is suboptimal in most cases. You can buy a $30k small studio on Amazon right now that shows up on the back of a truck but good luck with your city allowing you to use it as a dwelling.

“I’ve got an individual that’s (experiencing) shortness of breath, very hot, thinks he’s going to pass out and producing a little bit of blood – coughing up some blood,”

and then seeing that he was hiking in the Sierra in California 5 days earlier https://x.com/KyleBusch/status/2055384870638309742 leads me to believe he developed blood clots and had a massive Pulmonary Edema that killed him.

PE's are no joke and can happen to young and fit people at times seemingly at random. Clotting can be triggered by genetic causes, dehydration, and long flights/drives without moving your legs but sometimes they just happen.

If your body doesn't absorb them they can tear off and go to your lungs or heart resulting in shortness of breath and coughing up blood. 20% of PE's kill people instantly with no warning which was shocking to learn about.

Wear your compression socks on long flights and get up and stretch your legs. Same for sitting at on office or going on long drives. And if your legs every feel heavy, hot, or sweaty for apparently no reason go directly to the ER. A d-dimer test and subsequently an ultrasound will confirm. The fix? blood thinners and monitoring until your body takes care of them.

Dear administrator,

We are simplifying our Google Workspace AI add-ons to focus AI tool access on our core services. As part of this shift, we are removing the Workspace AI Ultra Access add-on as an offering. Starting July 7, 2026, you will no longer have access to this add-on and your existing AI Ultra Access add-on licenses will be automatically transitioned to the AI Expanded Access add-on. We’re providing you this update as our records indicate that one or more users in your organization are currently assigned a Workspace AI Ultra Access license.

What this means for your organization To allow time for your organization to adapt, your AI Ultra add-on subscription will remain active until the following dates, depending on your plan type:

Flexible plans: These changes take effect starting July 7, 2026 Annual/Fixed-term plans: These changes take effect on your next subscription renewal on or after July 7, 2026 Once these changes take effect, your organization will no longer have access to AI Ultra Access add-on, including the following Additional Products:

Developer Tools: Google Antigravity, Gemini CLI, and Gemini Code Assist plug-ins Video Editing Tools: Flow Continued services:

Your organization will continue to have access to the Gemini app, NotebookLM, and Gemini in Workspace features through your Google Workspace Business or Enterprise edition. Lower usage limits for certain features will apply depending on the feature and your Workspace Business or Enterprise edition. Your organization can continue to use the Gemini app and Google Vids for video generation. Please note, these Additional Products will continue to be available in Google One AI Plans.

What you need to do If you take no action prior to July 7, 2026, Google will automatically transition your users with the AI Ultra Access add-on license to the AI Expanded Access add-on. This lower cost AI add-on is offered at $24 per user per month with a Flexible billing plan, compared to the AI Ultra add-on which costs $250 per user per month with a flexible plan. The AI Expanded Access add-on provides higher access to advanced AI features in the Gemini app, NotebookLM, and Google Workspace apps than is available in Business and Enterprise plans.

Transition date: For flexible plans, these changes will take effect starting July 7, 2026. For annual and fixed-term plans, these changes will take effect on your next subscription renewal on or after July 7, 2026. If you have an offline Google Workspace agreement, your AI Ultra Access subscription will not automatically renew or be moved to an AI Expanded Access subscription on your renewal date. Learn more about your current plan. Subscription billing: If you are on a flexible plan, your next bill after July 7, 2026 will be prorated to account for the difference in price. If you are on an annual or fixed-term plan, your bill at renewal will be based on the AI Expanded Access add-on subscription price. Looking ahead, we are exploring ways to support even higher AI usage limits with AI Expanded Access add-on overages, giving admins more flexibility in how they empower their most progressive AI users.

If you do not want your users to automatically transition to the AI Expanded Access add-on starting from the dates listed above, you can:

Transition users earlier: You can initiate the transition of users to the AI Expanded Access add-on before July 7, 2026. Cancel your AI Ultra Access add-on: When you cancel, you will immediately lose access to the services and higher usage of AI capabilities as outlined above and your final bill will be prorated to the date of cancellation. You will continue to have access to features in the Gemini app, NotebookLM, and Gemini in Workspace based on your Workspace Business or Enterprise edition, with lower usage limits depending on the feature. Alternative for developer tools: For ongoing access to Gemini CLI and Gemini Code Assist plug-ins, you may also consider Gemini Enterprise Standard and Plus editions.

We’re here to help To learn more about these changes, please review the AI Ultra Help Center article.

We remain dedicated to continuous innovation and bringing more advanced AI capabilities to Google Workspace. Subscribe to the Workspace Updates Blog for notifications on future updates.

Thanks for choosing Google Workspace.

What's weird is the Ultra plan is still listed here: https://one.google.com/about/google-ai-plans/

What's going on Google?? Also if you say you're taking something away from me, you should also point me to what to replace it with in the same sentence.

As a solo entrepreneur you really have to prioritize your time but spending an extra day or two to think through everything using something like Gemini thinking or pro and an llm with an eye on security before you start taking customer data is probably a really good use of your time and you'll learn a thing or three. Just keep asking why and think critically.

It's usually designers, people who can raise money, and generalists who can stitch together apis. It's not generally platform, db, or security minded people. The proliferation of things like vercel and supabase have exacerbated this.

So you get people deploying API keys client side and dbs without rls. Or deploying service keys client side when they should be anon. I mean really basic stuff.

Robinhood absolutely nails this. Best virtual credit card system I have ever used. So seamless. Can auth a card for one time use, 24 hours, or indefinite until you cancel. Such a great UI / UX
