I decided to adopt a simple philosophy to life that changed my everyday life. Doing things beats not doing things. Simple enough, but hard to apply. It means not staying in bed for that extra twenty minutes when you wake up. It means cold approaching people. It means rejection. It means executing on the ideas you’re reasoning about. Iterate and pivot if necessary. It means asking that friend for help. It extends to everything. It means that you’re taking chances. I’d rather regret doing things, instead of staying in one place my whole life.

@eng_khairallah1 Five specialists is the easy part. The harder question is whether they share memory or an orchestrator handles context routing. Most tutorials skip that.

Anthropic engineer: "You can build 5 assistants in one afternoon. Each one handles a task you've been doing manually every single day." this is one of the best workflows I've seen in a long time in this video he breaks down exactly how most people are using Claude: - the 14% you lose to CLAUDE.md before typing a word - the plugins that 95% of users have never installed - the workflows that run without you typing a single prompt - why starting every chat from zero is the slowest way to use Claude if you've been starting every Claude conversation from scratch like it's never met you before, you're missing at least 20 features. probably 24 instead of another show tonight, watch this make sure to bookmark it before it gets lost in your feed the guide is in the article below

@boltdotnew Free domain removes the last excuse. Now you just have to ship something worth one.

Get a FREE domain for a year! Time to ship that app you've been sitting on. Pick a name, connect it, and the domain's on us. Not on Pro? Good time to upgrade. Any Pro or Teams plan gets one free domain until June 10.

@supabase Postgres. Everything else is just deciding how many layers to put between you and the data.

What's the tool/ framework that made you fall in love with building apps?

@gregisenberg The filler was always there. Kids just make it impossible to pretend it isn't.

When I first became a dad I was genuinely worried my career would suffer. The opposite happened. 3 things changed that I wasn't expecting. First, a child cuts the filler from your life instantly. I used to sit at my desk for 14 hours and feel like I was crushing it when in reality maybe 4 of those hours were actual work and the rest was meetings that didn't need to happen, scroll sessions I told myself were research, and "quick calls" that turned into 90 minutes of nothing. A child deletes all of that overnight. Because you literally don't have the time anymore. Every hour matters in a way it didn't before. You could be with your kid, working on your startup, exercising, having dinner with your wife, sleeping. When your time is actually full of things you care about, the filler can't survive. I'm shipping more now than before my kid was born. Half the meetings. Faster decisions. I stopped saying yes to things out of politeness because my time has a very real cost now that I can feel in my bones. Second, your risk tolerance goes up, not down. Everyone assumes having a kid makes you play it safe. For me it created this urgency to build something real while my kid is young enough to not remember the hard parts. That urgency is more useful than any productivity system I've ever tried. Third, your thinking just gets clearer. I don't know how else to explain it. You stop deliberating for days and just make the call. You stop chasing every opportunity and only chase the ones that actually excite you. Something about being responsible for another human being gives you this filter that cuts through the noise instantly. Before my kid, I'd go back and forth on a decision for a week. Now I make it by lunch and move on. I used to think having a kid was the thing I'd do after I built the company. Turns out the kid made me better at building the company. Wish someone had told me that sooner. So I'm telling you. I know this sounds like something a new dad says to justify it. I thought the same thing when other dads told me. Then it happened to me and I understood. I think you will too.

@paulg Editing is thinking. The first draft is just inventory.

Brevity is more than politeness to the reader. Compression is understanding.

@paulg 2014 was peak Uber clone season. Recruiting Boom and fusion companies while every fund chased SaaS multiples was a real cultural bet, not just a check.

Sam Altman deserves credit for YC's turn toward hard tech. When he became CEO in 2014 he went out and recruited companies doing stuff like airliners and fusion, and hard tech startups have been some of the best in every batch since.

@thisiskp_ Grounding problem, not a model problem. Text predictors hallucinate when given no source to anchor to. The analyst shipping unverified output is the symptom. Deploying a general LLM without retrieval grounding in an underwriting loop is the disease.

AI is getting people fired in investment back offices. Not because the tools are bad. Because they're built to "sound" right, not "be" right. > Hallucinated figures in underwriting models. > Citations that don't exist. > Metrics pulled from the wrong asset. The analyst ships it. Someone catches it. The deal falls apart. I hunted a product today on @ProductHunt that's tackling this head on. Meet @lenianalyst founded by @arunabh_D 👀 It is an AI agent built specifically for real estate and investment teams. It doesn't just generate work. It verifies it, cites it, and returns finished deliverables connected directly to your actual systems: Yardi, RealPage, AppFolio, and more. No babysitting a 25-message thread. No cleaning up hallucinated outputs. Just finished work you can trust. Currently trending top on the leaderboard. Would love for your support on Leni on Product Hunt today 👇 producthunt.com/products/leni

@roelofbotha @parisingh @buildonfloweng Software copilots save hours. Hardware AI saves months and avoids a $10M tape out respin. The asymmetry is obvious.

Thanks to @parisingh and his team at @buildonfloweng. hardware development teams can now enjoy the same benefits as software teams from AI-driven development acceleration

@tom_doerr Does the MCP actually traverse the graph or just run text search on nodes? Because the Obsidian link structure is only valuable if it follows connections, not keyword matches.

@eng_khairallah1 Bad task decomposition at the orchestrator level cascades across every sub agent simultaneously. Single context fails in place. Agent teams fail at scale. That's what the 14% CLAUDE.md framing misses.

Boris Cherny, the creator of Claude Code at Anthropic, just explained why he stopped prompting Claude entirely in this talk he breaks down exactly how the future is teams of agents, not better prompts: - the 14% you lose to CLAUDE.md before typing a word - the features that change how Claude thinks before you type a word - the features most Claude users don't know exist - why typing prompts one at a time is already the slow lane Boris Cherny: "Now I don’t prompt Claude anymore - I have loops that are running. My job is to write loops." if you've been using Claude for more than a month and never left the chat window, you have at least 23 untouched features. probably 25 instead of another show tonight, watch this make sure to bookmark it before it gets lost in your feed my breakdown of all 25 features is below

@GergelyOrosz Gemini probably handles 80% of what that team did. The remaining 20% is institutional knowledge that was never written down.

Everyone on Google’s Engineering Education team had been laid off very recently It suggests Google completely stops investing in this area… damn (Source is me: I confirmed with folks inside Google unfortunately this happened)

@andreasklinger Repairability in the field is doing more work than the electric or autonomous specs combined. John Deere turned repair access into a decade of litigation against their own customers. Voltrac making it a selling point is the actual disruption.

A fully electric autonomous tractor that lifts 4 tons, pulls 8 tons, runs 24 hours, and you can repair it in the middle of a field. This is Voltrac. 🦾 Made in Europe 🇪🇺 How would you design a futuristic autonomous tractor? Voltrac threw out everything and started from scratch. 70% fewer parts. One motor per wheel. Hot-swap batteries. Backwards compatible with any attachment a farmer already owns. Voltrac is more than a tractor, it’s the brain of the farm. One operator supervises multiple tractors across multiple farms. Every drive analyzes the crops, catches disease early, cuts fertilizer costs. And the same hitch that connects to farm tools connects to demining gear and resupply payloads for the front line. Disclaimer: I'm an early investor, because this is exactly what Europe needs. Europe had 70 million farmers in 2020. Projected 7 million by 2030. Our population keeps growing. Everyone still wants to eat. Somebody has to solve this. They build in Valencia, not China. Because the talent, the precision manufacturing, and the know-how are all here. We just forget how good we are. If we don't build this, someone in China will and sell it to European farmers. 🇪🇺🔥 Full Video on YT!

@mattpocockuk The AI effect: once it works, it stops being called AI. Spam filters, chess engines, voice recognition, recommendation systems. LLMs will be "just software" within a decade.

Everyone knows the "AI" label is bullshit. So how do you define it? Here's how I did it in my upcoming AI coding dictionary: "A moving label, not a technology. Points at whatever computers can newly, impressively do — right now, large language models."

@TheRundownAI 'Dreams' is doing a lot of marketing work for what is just background memory consolidation.

@Av1dlive The bottleneck is never the agents. It's getting them to hand off context cleanly without compounding errors. That's where most setups break.

the founder of a $20b ai company breaks down how a swarm of ai agents can replace an entire company. in one minute. for free. doesn't matter if you've never touched an agent or you've been living in claude for a year. you'll follow it. i pulled the key ideas into a practical guide for building with kimi. it's below ↓

@swyx Familiar pattern, unfamiliar name is still valuable. Tribal knowledge without vocabulary doesn't transmit.

Isomorphic likely that every single person in that game was already familiar with this

@mattpocockuk Compaction is a bet on future relevance. Usually wrong about the one thing you'll actually need.

A context engineering metaphor I've been playing around with: - Primary source: the source of truth. Raw data. Transcripts. Code. - Secondary source: one step removed. Summaries. Compactions. Documentation. For instance, compaction takes a primary source (the conversation history) and turns it into a secondary source (the summary). This is lossy, but means the secondary source can fit into a smaller space. If you want to know what your codebase does, your code is a primary source. Your docs are a secondary source. Loading primary sources into context is expensive, but provides richer context. Secondary sources are cheaper to load into context, but may be information-lossy. Any context engineering will involve managing the tradeoffs between both.

@reach_vb False positives here are uniquely damaging. Researchers mid run, dataset pipelines in production. What's the suspected trigger pattern?

We’re aware of reports that some users may be getting banned, and we’re actively investigating.

@thdxr 3 requires one thing the tweet doesn't name: knowing whether the detour is real abstraction or a yak shave. most engineers can't tell.

how to be good at your job - realize this one thing is actually made up of two separate things - realize instead of solving the direct problem you can solve a broader problem - instead of implementing thing, implement other thing that makes it easier to implement thing

@alexanderbenz @ibuildthecloud Yeah, I agree. IMO 4.8 is better in that regard than 5.5 rn.

@DevaBuilds @ibuildthecloud The product gap is obedience under constraint. A model that impresses while ignoring the spec creates more review work than a smaller one that stays inside the lane.

I've spent all day yelling at GPT-5, telling it to stop doing complicated things. Why do I even use AI? It's so stupid.
