every product i use should just be a headless mcp, that feeds into an agent, where i never have to think about anything underneath. except for our product, of course. in our product, customers love the ui and love us very much. we're special that way.

Asking people to connect their financial accounts takes trust. That’s why @perplexity_ai built Personal CFO with Plaid. We sat down with @jeffgrimes9 to talk about how it works. The full Q&A: pla.id/perplexity 🔌

Guaranteed Payments is for when you want us to make the call, and now we can say yes more often. It factors in your info about a user’s account tenure and wallet balance, refreshes risk signals on every transaction, and supports delayed release and partial guarantees. We’ll decide and cover settlement risk on anything we approve. pla.id/guaranteed

Fall Release '26 — Payments 💰 Every ACH payment comes down to making a call: approve it and eat the returns, or hold it and risk losing a good customer. We have two ways to handle it, and both just got upgrades. Plaid Signal is for when you want to make the call. It now runs on our sequential foundational model, which reads payment history in context. In testing, it prevented 26.5% more ACH returns with no increase in false flags. pla.id/signal

I am curious what were the challenges that prevented Google Docs from shipping Markdown support 15 years ago and how they have finally overcome those hurdles
We are making Markdown files work natively across Google Drive and Docs. You can now preview .md files in Drive, open them in Docs, edit them, comment on them, and collaborate without converting the file into a Google Doc!

I downloaded Muse and connected it to my email but haven't found much to use it for yet. As a result, it seems to just be informing me of my schedule, making on average one major mistake and subsequent correction per message.

This is really niche. In fifa 14 there’s a particular type of long shot animation that always went in. If you run in like a diagonal line and shoot opposite way and ur player falls over as he does it. It would always go in
