Like any other cool person, I spent my Saturday night hacking on an ncurses appview that uses oauth.
The longest and most challenging thing? Using oauth.
Currently fiddling with @zzstoatzz.io's fork because they have a PR queue'd for the python package github.com/zzstoatzz/at...

The email & texting content is interesting, but it's metadata analysis like this that tells a whole story unto itself.
I'd be very curious about the call log metadata as well! Probably at least as useful as this.

There are a few different threads I'm in that discus AI and data center resource utilization.
I took the better part of a day to write this up with cited sources. Always happy for corrections or to have my opinion changed in light of new information!
