* Pollution: -22%
* Revenue for mass transit: $548M

I got a forward from a friend about if/how Google trains Gemini on your personal content (email, docs, etc).

I don't work ON Gemini at Google (but I do work with it).
I'm a big fan of healthy skepticism. FUD should be avoided, though.
From the docs: support.google.com/mail/answer/...

Here is your friendly reminder when you're looking for coffee in the next many days that there are lots of places to try. Many of them likely don't have the highest number of labor violations in modern history. ☕🫵✊

I just released `build_runner 2.10.3` with another performance improvement, if you have a big codebase you will be happy, benchmark results:

1000 files: 2x faster (5s -> 3s)
2000 files: 5x faster (25s -> 5s)
5000 files: 27x faster (424s -> 15s)

My general belief is that Dems need to spend more time thinking about what they believe and less about what they think some imaginary swing voters want them to believe.
