Today I discovered Grafana has a ${__user.email} global variable.

It saves so much time when linking to Google Cloud services by adding ?authuser=${__user.email} to the links. No more account juggling.

Google moved Android Work profiles to the rather expensive Google Workspace Business Plus license.

That's the end of work accounts on my Pixel.

Google is preparing to make Duet AI subscription based at $19 USD per month.

I still don't get the current AGI hype. I've tried Copilot, ChatGPT, Bard and Duet AI and still find myself having to constantly correct them or discard their output entirely. That's just not worth the subscription.

It is possible it might get it right at some point but it seems there's a long way to go as it is.
