@ideabrowser A lot of truths in there. Couldn’t find much if anything to argue with.

I built a personality quiz for founders A scenario game that tells you: - what ideas to build - types of business models - who to partner with - how you operate in success/stress It's too fun so I made it free.

@mbertulli I wish I could do that. I already check it like I check a rear view mirror. But I have turned off notifications. I can hear the pings go off when chatting with coworkers and that would 100% drive me crazy.

I check Slack twice a day now. Used to keep it open on a second monitor. What happened? Nothing. Most urgency is manufactured.

@GrindstoneSEO Suppose you'd need to be somewhat comfortable working directly in files, code, github, filezilla, etc. if you go the Claude Code route. That said, I imagine there are a few other good CMS' that are still far and away lighter and easier to use than WP.

@GrindstoneSEO Hell, even ignoring rankings and instead looking at: - efficiency - backend speed (WP blocks slow af) - plugin bloat (+ $$$ in annual fees) - other admin headaches, etc. I don't see why anyone would continue to use or choose WP – assuming they're a decision maker.

Now tell Claude to rewrite that gross Elementor code into a flat html site with super fast loading lean code and laugh as your rankings skyrocket.

@bgadoci Great post. I did something similar a couple of weeks ago – a daily morning/evening brief. Between that and Airtable as my source of truth, I finally feel organized. Would like to try a couple things you're doing – narrative vs bullets, scan messages, find action items, etc.

Three AI agents run against my Gmail, Slack, Notion, Calendar, and Fireflies every day. One briefs me, one journals my day, one catches what I dropped. The format choice that made them all useful: narrative output, not bullet points. gadociconsulting.com/articles/i-hav…

@coreyganim @SahilBloom Agreed. Big mental component to both too (lifting in general), in that after 5-10 reps you're hating life – then have to have the discipline to see the set through with the best form you can.

@SahilBloom Bulgarian split squats. So hard, no one is willing to do them yet such an effective exercise

What’s the single most underrated exercise? I’ll start: Heavy walking lunges. Full body strength, balance and stability, plus cardio at higher rep ranges.

@IMJustinBrooke “Yea but only if it converts” Someone saying that has no idea what they’re in for with SEO. With PPC, you’ll know if something converts in hours, days, etc. Whereas with SEO it’s months, and likely 5-figures in resources (content, links, labor, etc.) — as you pointed out.

Most people don’t know this about me, but before paid ads I was big into SEO. Here’s why I changed… I had an SEO book and everything, but then I realized “Wait, if the thesis of SEO is get to the top of the page and win… I can just pay $5 to be there.” But that’s not all… Being a paid ads guy means I don’t have to beg for likes or wait months to build an audience. It also means I don’t have to kiss butts for JV promos and reciprocal mailings. Being a paid ads guy means no waiting months for SEO rankings, no waiting for follower growth, no begging for sponsors, or affiliates. I literally make my own success on my own timeline. I can wake up, turn on Google ads, and have traffic to my pages tomorrow. You might say “yea but only if it converts.” Well, yea that’s the whole game. Anyone can write a check or swipe a card to buy some traffic. The key is making it convert so you can keep writing that check and swiping that card infinite times. That part is a learnable skill though. Just like you can learn how to get followers or learn how to rank #1, you can learn how to make offers convert. Now that I have that skill, I’m basically unstoppable. All of you could try to cancel me tomorrow, and I’ll just go to another niche, with another offer, and buy traffic and make it convert. No waiting to build a new following. No waiting for new rankings. No rebuilding my affiliate army. Un-cancelable. Unstoppable. That is security. That is freedom. And I can do it working from wherever on my laptop. My name is Justin Brooke, I own Adskills, and have been doing paid ads for 20yrs. I’ve trained over 14,000 others how to do paid ads. Your guru, has very likely, taken my paid ads course at some point. If you want to become unstoppable and leave all the social media, SEO, and JV grinding behind you. Leave a comment below that is a gif saying goodbye to all that drama. The funnier the gif, the faster I’ll DM you my free 7 day fast start course. Happy Sunday ✌️❤️

@NickSpisak_ 100%. Unfortunately, the CO I work for would still find a way to add bloat to the turnaround time + costs. However, for me (and clients if I were to sell it), it'd save hundreds of dollars per year, if not per month, and with just a bit of labor and a $20 subscription 😎

@ItsMattGeer ^this - you just saved how may hours of engineering time? … thats actual ROI … so anyone that says you cant “sell” that isn’t being creative enough or is in a role where knowledge work isn’t the metric they are measured on

Most people will retweet this and never open Claude. Here's how to turn this into cash before Monday: 1. Grab a local business owner's messy spreadsheet, drop it in Claude, build them an interactive dashboard in 10 minutes. Charge $499. I've done this exact move with Amazon data - clients think it's magic. 2. Build a free interactive tool (quiz, decision tree, ROI calculator) as a lead magnet. Capture emails all weekend. Sell on Monday. The feature is included. The skill gap is temporary.

@NickSpisak_ As a product manager, the same quiz app would probably take my team 3-4 weeks to build – and that's if we prioritized it. I was able to do all this in less than 12 hours of work, and it only took that long beause almost every aspect was a net new thing to learn. 2/2

@NickSpisak_ Literally just tested this to build out a flow chart for an onboarding automation. Really neat. Also did one using the Excalidraw connector – also neat. Didn't build an interactive tool with it, but I did last week with Claude Code (quiz app => Kit => Looker Studio). 1/2

@coreyganim Haven't gotten to openclaw yet. Got Cowork setup last week, but haven't used it yet. Think I'll use it more in the near future. I definitely see a path where I get into plugins (seems like multiple Skills bundled?). Agree w/Adolfo – would love to see the Skills you're using.

@ItsMattGeer Nice, that’s a solid skill list. My openclaw has 40+ skills and I’ve been building a lot more in cowork lately too

If you only learn ONE thing about AI in 2026, make it Skills. Here's how to identify and build your first Skill in 15 minutes: STEP 1: Find your top Skill candidate → Open your last 10 Claude conversations → Look for repeated instructions at the start → If you've typed it 3+ times, that's a Skill waiting to be built STEP 2: Define it (5 min) → What does it do? (Be ruthlessly specific) → What would you type to trigger it? → What does "good output" look like? STEP 3: Build the file (5 min) → Create a folder: `my-skill-name/` → Inside, create `SKILL. md` → Add YAML header with name + description → Write step-by-step instructions below STEP 4: Deploy (30 sec) → Drop the folder into `~/.claude/skills/` → Done. It fires automatically next time Learning how to build Skills will help you run laps around your competition, very few people are doing this properly.

@chrisorzy In what country do the men wear their wife's pants?

The American mind cannot comprehend this

@witcheer great to know, I'll do that (makes total sense after reading your post) – appreciate the response!

@ItsMattGeer yes I am breaking down projects by 'activity' would say rather than task

@chrisorzy I like the paid partnership label 😂

If you don’t have openclaw running in the next 30 days you’re going to be homeless Forget the permanent underclass, you’re literally hopeless. You have no idea how fast the technology is progressing.

@coreyganim Testing the forms for current reply times is simple, but brilliant. It gives you a hook and pain point to use, and it sets up a clear before and after too.

@Chrs228148 @OmarChoudhry @gregisenberg Thanks for sharing! I'm gonna check those out, as I just built a quiz web app over the weekend (hooked it up to Kit, Supabase, Looker Studio). Was aiming it to be more for lead gen, but wouldn't take much to tweak it for general use / trivia / etc.

@OmarChoudhry @gregisenberg These are 🔥 check the Vidiq monthly value estimates for YT channels like ‘The Quiz Show’ or ‘The Quiz Channel’ They thrive on being able to create 3-5 videos a week! Are you planning to release this tool? -

A little fun example I rendered to tickle @gregisenberg on this fine Friday morning 100% automated end to end My input: "Startup ideas podcast" The studio I built in 72 hours: > Research > Content > Script > Narration > Assets > Sound Effects > Design > Edit No human. About to fire up a load of YT channels with this new toy 🤓

@IMJustinBrooke That's fair, and makes sense – appreciate it!

@ItsMattGeer You probably could. I bet it takes you longer than an hour though. I enjoyed helping a local kid, having him look over my shoulder, and walking away fully equipped.

The best investment I made last year was only $100. I paid a local college coder dude $100 to sit with me for an hour at a coffee shop and teach me terminal and connect Claude Code to my computer. You've probably not used terminal much, so you might be thinking I'm over hyping this, but I promise you this is a MASSIVE unlock. An actual. literal. modern. SUPER POWER. You can do things via terminal that your browser or even your AI just cannot. For example, recently most of the Youtube Downloader chrome extensions were taken down or made in effective. Well... still light work for terminal. Look, listen to me, don't listen to me, doesn't change my day. I'm still doing cool stuff and fillin my bank account, just trying to help who I can, where I can. LEARN TERMINAL! Hire a local nerd for an hour and just ask him to install stuff and explain stuff. Do this weekly or monthly if you must, but trust me, you'll love this.
