Google Maps ahora guarda automáticamente dónde aparcas en iPhone y elimina el pin cuando vuelves a conducirPor Félix Riaño @LocutorCo¿Te ha pasado que sales de un centro comercial, miras alrededor y no recuerdas dónde dejaste el coche? Google Maps acaba de activar una función que busca resolver justo ese momento de confusión. En iPhone, la app ahora detecta automáticamente cuándo terminas un trayecto en coche y guarda el lugar exacto donde aparcaste, sin que tengas que tocar nada. La función funciona de forma silenciosa, se borra sola cuando vuelves a conducir y está pensada para integrarse con CarPlay, Bluetooth o USB. Es un cambio pequeño en apariencia, pero muy práctico en el día a día. ¿Por qué ha tardado tanto en llegar y por qué solo está disponible en iOS?Funciona sola… pero deja fuera a millones de usuarios Android.Vamos a explicar qué está pasando. Google Maps en iOS empezó a activar hace unas semanas una función que reconoce cuándo llegas en coche a un lugar y cuándo apagas el motor. En ese momento, la app guarda automáticamente la ubicación del vehículo y coloca un pin en el mapa. Ese pin permanece visible durante cuarenta y ocho horas. Si antes de ese tiempo vuelves a conducir, el pin desaparece sin que hagas nada. Todo ocurre de forma automática.Para que funcione, el iPhone debe estar conectado al coche por CarPlay, Bluetooth o cable USB. No hace falta usar el botón manual de “guardar aparcamiento” que Google Maps ya tenía desde hace años. Ahora el sistema actúa por contexto, entendiendo el inicio y el final del trayecto. Es una función pensada para la vida real, para despistes cotidianos y para lugares grandes como parkings, hospitales o aeropuertos.Aquí aparece la tensión. Esta función solo está activa en Google Maps para iOS. En Android, el sistema sigue siendo manual. El usuario debe guardar el lugar y borrar el pin por su cuenta. Esto ha generado muchas preguntas, sobre todo porque Android es la plataforma principal de Google.Además, aunque el sistema guarda la ubicación horizontal del coche, no indica el piso o nivel en un parking de varias plantas. Eso significa que en parkings grandes todavía toca fijarse en columnas, colores o señales. Algunos usuarios también se preguntan qué datos usa Google para detectar el aparcamiento y si esto afecta a la privacidad. Google explica que el pin se elimina automáticamente y que la ubicación no queda guardada de forma permanente. Aun así, la diferencia entre iOS y Android deja una sensación rara de funciones desiguales dentro del mismo ecosistema.Google ha ido afinando esta función poco a poco. Primero activó el guardado automático del aparcamiento. Luego añadió un detalle visual: si usas un icono personalizado de coche en Google Maps, ese mismo icono aparece marcando el lugar donde aparcaste, en vez del clásico símbolo con la letra P.Los iconos personalizados existen desde dos mil veinte, y este año Google añadió nuevos modelos y colores. Ahora ese detalle se convierte en parte del sistema de aparcamiento. No cambia la navegación, pero hace la experiencia más clara y más humana.En comparación, Apple Maps lleva años ofreciendo detección automática del aparcamiento en iPhone. Google llega más tarde, pero lo hace integrado con su propia app y con una lógica simple: entras al coche, conduces, aparcas, te bajas, y el mapa se encarga del resto. No hay menús, no hay recordatorios, no hay pasos extra.Este tipo de funciones forma parte de una tendencia más amplia: apps que entienden el contexto sin que el usuario tenga que pedirlo. Google Maps ya hace algo parecido al detectar si vas caminando, en bici o en transporte público. El aparcamiento automático encaja en esa misma idea.También hay una comparación interesante con AirTag y otros sistemas de rastreo. Aquí no hay accesorios extra ni hardware adicional. Todo depende del teléfono, del coche y del comportamiento de uso.Por ahora, Google no ha dicho cuándo llegará esta función automática a Android. En Android Auto existe un botón para guardar el aparcamiento, pero sigue siendo manual. Eso deja abierta una pregunta clara: ¿es una limitación técnica o una decisión de producto? Mientras tanto, en iPhone la función ya está activa por defecto en muchos dispositivos, sin anuncios grandes ni actualizaciones visibles. Simplemente aparece un día… y funciona.Google Maps ahora recuerda automáticamente dónde aparcas si usas iPhone y conectas el coche. El pin se borra solo al volver a conducir. Es práctico, discreto y muy fácil de usar. La gran duda es cuándo llegará a Android. Cuéntame si ya lo viste activo en tu móvil y sigue Flash Diario en Spotify para más historias así.Google Maps en iPhone ahora guarda solo dónde aparcas, borra el pin al conducir y deja a Android esperando.

Ever wonder why some leaders seem to always be a step ahead while others keep relearning the same hard lessons? The quiet difference is a system: capture the experience, process it into something useful, and ship it so others move faster. We use a simple Google Maps analogy to make this vivid—data is useless until it becomes direction—and then break down how to build your own engine for turning life and work into assets.We reflect on the year as a practical frame for review, not a scoreboard for ego. What did the last twelve months teach you about clarity, alignment, and movement? We walk through the habits that make capture effortless, from a living “What Works” document to tagged notes and fast story collection. Then we show how to refine raw thoughts into checklists, prompts, playbooks, and short talks that people can actually use on Monday morning. This is how you grow influence without shouting: by building a body of work that others rely on.Finally, we map distribution tiers—personal, organizational, and public—so your knowledge reaches the right audience at the right fidelity. You'll hear how we turned years of consulting into courses, a book, and repeatable tools, and why the market consistently rewards clarity, speed, and usefulness. No fluff, no grandstanding—just a practical path to raising your impact and leaving a real legacy. If you're ready to stop letting your best insights evaporate and start shipping value, this conversation is your starting line.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a teammate, and leave a quick review so more leaders can find it.

Zdravo. Kitajci trkajo na vrata, Rusi rožljajo z orožjem, mi pa najdemo rešitev, ki bo Evropo rešila pred gotovim propadom. Rešitev je preprostejša, kot bi se razmišljujočemu zdelo in mi verjamemo, da nam bo z jeklenimi jetri in močno voljo tudi uspelo. Ugotovimo tudi, da mladina ne pije več (oz. pije bistveno manj), manj je socialna in je vedno več na mobilnih telefonih. Zato je čisto logično, da predlagamo evropski renesančni program, ki vključuje petdnevni vikend, pivske ekskurzije, tečaje zmernega pitja alkohola in podobno.

In this East Tennessee Fishing Report from The Articulate Fly, host Marvin Cash connects with guide Ellis Ward to discuss the seasonal transition from brown trout to prime musky fishing on the French Broad River. Ellis breaks down why December is a great time to chase musky in East Tennessee, explaining how low water conditions create unique presentation opportunities and how recent rain is settling the river into its winter patterns. With baby number three arriving this week, Ellis shares his strategic approach to the December lull, focusing clients on musky fishing while brown trout actively spawn. In response to listener Austin's question about exploring new water, Ellis delivers a masterclass in scouting strategy, explaining how to use Google Maps to identify high-percentage areas like creek mouths, spring creek confluences and reservoir feeder streams throughout the region's extensive tailwater and lake systems. He emphasizes the importance of dedicated time on the water—three to four days per week minimum—to truly pattern any fishery, whether targeting stripers, smallmouth or trophy browns. Ellis wraps up by highlighting why January and February represent his favorite months for post-spawn trout fishing, promising "bonkers" days for anglers willing to brave the cold.To learn more about Ellis, check out our interview!Related ContentS6, Ep 142 - Winter Musky Adventures and Streamer Tactics with Ellis WardS6, Ep 146 - Musky Mysteries: Winter Tactics and Fly Tying Tips with Matt ReillyS7, Ep 14 - The Streamer Playbook: Tips and Tactics for Targeting Big Trout in East Tennessee with Ellis WardS6, Ep 139 - Exploring East Tennessee's Changing Waters with Ellis WardAll Things Social MediaFollow Ellis and Flyzotics on Instagram.Follow Ellis on YouTube.Follow us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube.Support the Show Shop on AmazonBecome a Patreon PatronSubscribe to the PodcastSubscribe to the podcast in the podcatcher of your...

MY NEWSLETTER - https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeJoin me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), as I interview Tyler Mumford (https://x.com/StumpGuyTy).I'm thrilled to chat with Tyler Mumford, who heard me and Chris Koerner discussing the idea of launching a stump grinding business on a Holdco Bro episode and decided to quit his $180,000 job.We dive deep into the key strategies and tactics that helped him go from zero to replacing his income so quickly. Tyler reveals how total focus was his biggest differentiator and explains why he quit his job rather than starting this as a side hustle, feeling that the risk-taker gets the spoils. He shares how he initially focused on a B2B play with tree companies and quickly pivoted to include direct-to-consumer jobs by optimizing his Google Business Profile.Tyler also discusses the power of sharing his journey publicly (MO) and how that led him to create an extensive, 85-page Playbook to monetize the hundreds of questions he received. Finally, we talk about how simply being "in the game" of entrepreneurship led him and his wife to launch their mobile Swedish candy store, Amelia's Swedish Candy, which operates out of a beautiful 1962 Volkswagen Transporter and is already doing impressive revenue.Questions This Episode Answers:How did Tyler replace his $180k SAS income with a stump grinding business in about a year?What was the biggest differentiator that allowed a new service business to grow rapidly?How did a new business rank number one organically on Google Maps against established local competitors?What is the secret strategy for getting customers to write a Google review immediately after service?How can entrepreneurs monetize the constant questions they receive after growing an audience?Enjoy the conversation!__________________________Love it or hate it, I'd love your feedback.Please fill out this brief survey with your opinion or email me at nik@cofounders.com with your thoughts.__________________________MY NEWSLETTER: https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/5avyu98yApple: https://tinyurl.com/bdxbr284YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/nikonomicsYT__________________________This week we covered:00:00 From Corporate to Stump Grinding Success02:47 The Power of Focus and Risk-Taking05:59 Building Relationships and Market Understanding08:51 Leveraging Google Business for Growth11:46 The Art of Asking for Reviews15:08 The Surge in Stump Grinding Interest17:48 The Stump Grinding Community and Its Growth20:39 Building a Stump Grinding Community23:54 The Challenge of Helping Others26:09 Creating a Playbook for Success29:58 The Value of Information and Consulting33:20 Launching a Candy Business37:54 Revenue and Future Plans for the Candy Business

Strengthen yourself in the Lord, inquire of the Lord, and obey the Lord—and you'll find the promise is closer than you think.ARTICLE When life feels slow, confusing, or painfully inefficient, many of us wish God acted more like a navigation app. Apps like Waze or Google Maps always chase the fastest route from Point A to Point B. But God doesn't choose the fastest route; He chooses the forming route. That truth sits at the center of David's story in 1 Samuel 27–30. After twenty years of running from Saul, David was exhausted. Scripture says “David kept thinking to himself…” (1 Samuel 27:1 NLT). His inner narrative was slipping, and discouragement was shaping his choices.We've all been there—moments where shortcuts look tempting, where God's promise looks distant, and where the path feels like a zigzag instead of a straight line. But David's journey shows us how to stay faithful when you're one step away from giving up.Settling for ZiklagDiscouragement often begins with unsubmitted self-talk. David “thought to himself” that Saul was going to kill him and concluded that escaping to the Philistines was his best option (1 Samuel 27:1–2 NLT). Without God's voice grounding his heart, David drifted into enemy territory.That's how he ended up in Ziklag.Ziklag—likely meaning “zigzagging”—was a Philistine town that became David's base for about sixteen months (1 Samuel 27:6–7 NLT). For a man who had been running for years, Ziklag felt like success. He finally had stability, safety, and a loyal army. It looked like arrival.But Ziklag wasn't the promise. It was provision—but not inheritance. God had spoken something bigger over David's life: a kingdom, a throne, and divine leadership over Israel. Ziklag was comfortable, but comfort can quietly become compromise. Sometimes the most dangerous place isn't the valley—it's the almost.Don't confuse the interim with the inheritance. Don't let a tired heart write your theology. God's promises may take time, but delay is not denial.When Ziklag BurnsThen came the breaking point. While David and his men were away, the Amalekites raided and burned Ziklag to the ground, kidnapping every woman and child (

-Spotify has unveiled an upcoming interactive feature called SongDNA designed to show you the samples, collaborators and covers included in a given track, the company announced. As part of that update, Spotify also revealed that it has acquired WhoSampled, the company behind the SongDNA technology. -Google is rolling out an update to Maps that brings some new tools to the table, including the ability to check on EV charger availability. The app already showed the location of EV chargers, but not if they were available or not. In other words, it was entirely possible to roll up to a charging station only to find a line of EVs waiting for juice. -European policymakers have proposed sweeping changes to the way the EU regulates the tech industry. In just the last few months, the likes of Meta and Google have questioned strict EU policies relating to privacy and AI expansion, but if the European Commission's new package of proposals are passed, a number of big tech roadblocks will be removed.

Neal Stephenson—legendary sci-fi author who coined "metaverse" in his 1992 novel Snow Crash—and Rebecca Barkin, co-founder of Lamina1, return to the AI XR Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation about building a decentralized creator economy, launching their dystopian AI world-building project Artifact, and why blockchain might finally free creators from Big Tech's chokehold. Joined by Charlie, Ted, and Rony, the discussion spans Neal's lost Magic Leap project, the resurrection of the open metaverse dream, and how decentralized platforms could flip Hollywood's power structure on its head.Rebecca details Lamina1's journey from blockchain currency for the open metaverse to Spaces, a multimedia creator platform built on Ethereum that allows IP owners to retain control, set royalties, and build direct relationships with fans. Think YouTube meets Discord, but on decentralized rails. The goal isn't socialism—it's a creative meritocracy where artists get equity in platforms they help build, instead of just one-time payouts while Netflix captures all the value.Neal unpacks Artifact, Lamina1's first creative test case: a post-Singularity world where 12 competing mega-AIs fight over energy, copper, water, and GPUs while humans live in the interstices. Co-created with Weta Workshop using AI tools like World Labs' marble splats, the project invites fans to co-create lore, not just consume it. It's a living experiment in collaborative IP development—and proof that small teams with AI amplifiers can build Grand Theft Auto-scale worlds.Guest HighlightsNeal Stephenson coined "metaverse" in Snow Crash; former Magic Leap creative lead with lost IP still trapped at the company.Rebecca Barkin pivoted Lamina1 from metaverse currency to Spaces: a decentralized platform for multimedia creators retaining IP rights and earning equity.Artifact launches as Lamina1's test case—collaborative world-building in a dystopian post-AI Singularity where fans shape the narrative.Built on Ethereum with Consensus Network backing; uses blockchain to solve micro-transaction volatility and give creators sustainable economics.Signed Bob's Burgers team (Ghosted Media) and other Hollywood refugees seeking autonomy from studio gatekeepers.News HighlightsValve launches PC cube + wireless Index headset—sub-$1000 system to compete with Xbox/PlayStation and revive PCVR market, but will enthusiasts bite?Meta adds real-time computer vision to AI glasses—Ray-Ban smart glasses gain live AI interpretation, pushing toward inflection point for wearables.Google Maps integrates Gemini AI—natural language directions and real-world context awareness transform navigation into conversational copilot.11 Labs launches voice marketplace—Michael Caine licenses voice cloning; Matthew McConaughey invests but won't sell his own likeness.Disney announces AI user-generated content strategy—Bob Iger teases platforms for fans to create with Disney IP, following Lego's remix culture playbook.Big thanks to our sponsor Zappar.

If you've never checked into a marina or mooring field before, how do you learn? Here are the procedures and best practices.  Summary: When you're headed to a new marina or mooring field, prepare ahead of time by checking the layout. Visit their website or use Google Maps. Advanced familiarity will make the marina staff's instructions clearer later. Call when you're ten minutes out to get last-minute details to help you tie up. It gives you a chance to ask for landmarks to help you find the slip or to get information about how to tie up. Will you be getting help to tie up? If so, in the United States, a tip is customary. After you're tied up, get back to the marina office to make arrangements to pay and provide documents. I preferred to clean up a bit before checking in. It's simply a sign of respect and helps things go smoother. I kept all my documents in one place so I was ready. It's why we developed the Boat Documents Organizer. Look for a link in the show notes. After checking in, get the lay of the land. Where are the showers? Laundry? What is the WiFi password? And, will the marina be hosting any special events? To get more details, listen to the full podcast or check out How to Check Into a Marina.

The DoorDash problem just became Amazon's problem. Perplexity's Comet browser is allegedly stealthily shopping on the internet's largest mall, and the folks in Seattle want it to stop. It's just one example of the fast-moving power dynamics on the internet, as AI companies try to change the way we search, shop, and do everything else. Lots of companies are not going to settle for being dumb databases, and Nilay and David discuss how this fight might play out. After that, the hosts talk about the reports of an impending cheaper Mac with an iPhone chip, and whether that might mark Apple's true return to consumer laptops — or be something else entirely. Finally, in the lightning round, they talk Brendan Carr, late-night shows, party speakers, and sonic logos. Lots and lots of sonic logos.
