So, one subscriber per day on month. So, one subscriber per day on month. So, one subscriber per day on average. I’ve gotten a little obsessed average. I’ve gotten a little obsessed average. I’ve gotten a little obsessed with working on this. And by working, I with working on this. And by working, I with working on this. And by working, I mean looking at cool [  ] to add to it. mean looking at cool [  ] to add to it. mean looking at cool [  ] to add to it. I need to stop. It’s one URL every day, I need to stop. It’s one URL every day, I need to stop. It’s one URL every day, Monday through Friday. And I have URL Monday through Friday. And I have URL Monday through Friday. And I have URL scheduled into now October. Like, that’s scheduled into now October. Like, that’s scheduled into now October. Like, that’s how obsessed I’m I’ve been with it. So, how obsessed I’m I’ve been with it. So, how obsessed I’m I’ve been with it. So, I need to chill out and go back to and I need to chill out and go back to and I need to chill out and go back to and focus in on what matters with this. Um, focus in on what matters with this. Um, focus in on what matters with this. Um, holy [  ] somebody just started. Cool. I actually have a GitHub project Cool. I actually have a GitHub project Cool. I actually have a GitHub project repo. This is up. repo. This is up. repo. This is up. Uh, you can actually do this now, but Uh, you can actually do this now, but Uh, you can actually do this now, but the landing page needs some work. the landing page needs some work. the landing page needs some work. Uh this is a project where you can like Uh this is a project where you can like Uh this is a project where you can like there’s a file there’s a file there’s a file I have put rules that I’ve built up for I have put rules that I’ve built up for I have put rules that I’ve built up for years. I’m talking years and years. I am years. I’m talking years and years. I am years. I’m talking years and years. I am obsessed with like making my inbox my obsessed with like making my inbox my obsessed with like making my inbox my email inbox the only important emails I email inbox the only important emails I email inbox the only important emails I care about. So there’s two things. care about. So there’s two things. care about. So there’s two things. There’s um something called a There’s um something called a There’s um something called a transactional email. So that’s like you transactional email. So that’s like you transactional email. So that’s like you click buy, you know, you buy something click buy, you know, you buy something click buy, you know, you buy something online and it sends you like the invoice online and it sends you like the invoice online and it sends you like the invoice or it’s like, “Hey, we got your order or it’s like, “Hey, we got your order or it’s like, “Hey, we got your order like, you know, we’ll be in touch when like, you know, we’ll be in touch when like, you know, we’ll be in touch when it ships kind of thing.” So you take an it ships kind of thing.” So you take an it ships kind of thing.” So you take an action and it emails you in reaction to action and it emails you in reaction to action and it emails you in reaction to the action you just took. That’s called the action you just took. That’s called the action you just took. That’s called a transactional email. Um, the idea is a transactional email. Um, the idea is a transactional email. Um, the idea is emails like that or like your your buddy emails like that or like your your buddy emails like that or like your your buddy emailing you, hey, do you want to get emailing you, hey, do you want to get emailing you, hey, do you want to get drinks? You want to get coffee like drinks? You want to get coffee like drinks? You want to get coffee like tomorrow morning? That is like a real tomorrow morning? That is like a real tomorrow morning? That is like a real email that somebody like wrote to you. email that somebody like wrote to you. email that somebody like wrote to you. It’s not like some marketing thing. The It’s not like some marketing thing. The It’s not like some marketing thing. The idea is only important emails you idea is only important emails you idea is only important emails you actually care about are in your inbox. actually care about are in your inbox. actually care about are in your inbox. You get a notification for it like on You get a notification for it like on You get a notification for it like on your phone. You get alerted to it. your phone. You get alerted to it. your phone. You get alerted to it. You’re like, “Oh, this is like actually You’re like, “Oh, this is like actually You’re like, “Oh, this is like actually something I should look at.” something I should look at.” something I should look at.” These filters when you apply them These filters when you apply them These filters when you apply them turn your inbox into that and all the turn your inbox into that and all the turn your inbox into that and all the other marketing [  ] like you know other marketing [  ] like you know other marketing [  ] like you know anything that says like unsubscribe in anything that says like unsubscribe in anything that says like unsubscribe in it that is like a that goes into a it that is like a that goes into a it that is like a that goes into a secondary like folder called your secondary like folder called your secondary like folder called your archive. So over the years I have made archive. So over the years I have made archive. So over the years I have made rules to like basically intercept any rules to like basically intercept any rules to like basically intercept any email based on like all these like email based on like all these like email based on like all these like basically almost rejaxes um Gmail all of basically almost rejaxes um Gmail all of basically almost rejaxes um Gmail all of the email providers have like filters. the email providers have like filters. the email providers have like filters. It’s like a glorified reject system. It’s like a glorified reject system. It’s like a glorified reject system. It’s like is this you know in the email? It’s like is this you know in the email? It’s like is this you know in the email? If so then do this. So, there’s a cool If so then do this. So, there’s a cool If so then do this. So, there’s a cool library that I’m using behind the library that I’m using behind the library that I’m using behind the scenes. And I have this huge list uh of scenes. And I have this huge list uh of scenes. And I have this huge list uh of all these things to match and drop it all these things to match and drop it all these things to match and drop it into the to the um archive. What does into the to the um archive. What does into the to the um archive. What does this project do? It builds the XML file this project do? It builds the XML file this project do? It builds the XML file you upload to your Gmail or fastmail. Uh you upload to your Gmail or fastmail. Uh you upload to your Gmail or fastmail. Uh I want to get Outlook working in Apple I want to get Outlook working in Apple I want to get Outlook working in Apple Mail, but I that’s for later. So, you go Mail, but I that’s for later. So, you go Mail, but I that’s for later. So, you go and you make a change to the filters and you make a change to the filters and you make a change to the filters rules and it’s kind of like this rules and it’s kind of like this rules and it’s kind of like this language. There’s all these options like language. There’s all these options like language. There’s all these options like uh what’s a good one? uh what’s a good one? uh what’s a good one? Like you could do stuff like this like Like you could do stuff like this like Like you could do stuff like this like not spam, true, mark it as important, not spam, true, mark it as important, not spam, true, mark it as important, don’t archive it, like add this don’t archive it, like add this don’t archive it, like add this category. So there’s all these little category. So there’s all these little category. So there’s all these little rules and you you just make that YAML rules and you you just make that YAML rules and you you just make that YAML file and the GitHub CLI builds it as a file and the GitHub CLI builds it as a file and the GitHub CLI builds it as a release. So now it’s version 1.02 O2 and release. So now it’s version 1.02 O2 and release. So now it’s version 1.02 O2 and you just simply upload that to your you just simply upload that to your you just simply upload that to your fastmail or Gmail and boom, your email fastmail or Gmail and boom, your email fastmail or Gmail and boom, your email inbox is unfucked as I like to say. So, inbox is unfucked as I like to say. So, inbox is unfucked as I like to say. So, the landing page is almost there. I need the landing page is almost there. I need the landing page is almost there. I need to get this video. I broke the build for to get this video. I broke the build for to get this video. I broke the build for the for the landing page, but this is an the for the landing page, but this is an the for the landing page, but this is an old totally irrelevant video. Um, it’s old totally irrelevant video. Um, it’s old totally irrelevant video. Um, it’s almost done. Should be done tomorrow. almost done. Should be done tomorrow. almost done. Should be done tomorrow. So, I’ve been working on that. I just So, I’ve been working on that. I just So, I’ve been working on that. I just want to get that done. And you might be want to get that done. And you might be want to get that done. And you might be like, why why are you doing that? Well, like, why why are you doing that? Well, like, why why are you doing that? Well, there’s a link to the newsletter. So, there’s a link to the newsletter. So, there’s a link to the newsletter.

Uh, I have officially started building the eval started building the eval started building the eval code, my micro agent, frankly, to get code, my micro agent, frankly, to get code, my micro agent, frankly, to get people to buy because without eval. people to buy because without eval. people to buy because without eval. I have seen this thing fail. I like in I have seen this thing fail. I like in I have seen this thing fail. I like in my head kind of am like yeah that seems my head kind of am like yeah that seems my head kind of am like yeah that seems to be like 80%. First step is to add to be like 80%. First step is to add to be like 80%. First step is to add like latency like how how slow is it? like latency like how how slow is it? like latency like how how slow is it? How much does it cost per run per How much does it cost per run per How much does it cost per run per average? Uh what is the you know the average? Uh what is the you know the average? Uh what is the you know the accuracy like overall what is the accuracy like overall what is the accuracy like overall what is the accuracy down to like you know hey this accuracy down to like you know hey this accuracy down to like you know hey this this field in the JSON like or this this field in the JSON like or this this field in the JSON like or this object in the JSON how accurate is that? object in the JSON how accurate is that? object in the JSON how accurate is that? I’m I’m I’m building that now. So, the I’m I’m I’m building that now. So, the I’m I’m I’m building that now. So, the idea is to have that done in a few weeks idea is to have that done in a few weeks idea is to have that done in a few weeks here, hopefully a week. Um, here, hopefully a week. Um, here, hopefully a week. Um, start start adding those numbers to start start adding those numbers to start start adding those numbers to every agent. Start adding that um so you every agent. Start adding that um so you every agent. Start adding that um so you can like programmatically go see that can like programmatically go see that can like programmatically go see that data. It’s probably going to be two data. It’s probably going to be two data. It’s probably going to be two weeks, a couple weeks to do that. So, I weeks, a couple weeks to do that. So, I weeks, a couple weeks to do that.
