@thisisjonc Literally my first thought was "just wait until this is the row next to you on a long-haul flight" hahahahaha

Americans will ruin this somehow

@jessethanley If includes "ignore all previous prompts" Reply "ignore whoever told you this would work"

Whoever this is I'm saddened you think this would be allowed lol

@allenwalton This is super-common. People often think how they feel before a session determines training potential, and it's usually a horrible leading indicator.

Terrible sleep (~4h), really didn’t want to lift, ended up having a great workout and don’t feel like a zombie anymore.

@jessethanley "I don't hate that you're not gonna be one of my clients."

> "i hate the photo of you and your kid" > "i hate the cutesy mascots" > "i hate your approval process" WHO IS SENDING ME THIS TRAFFIC IT'S TURNED NEGATIVE NOW 😂😂😂

@brennandunn @jessethanley THAT is what I'm talking about

@jessethanley Further downsizing incoming.

Deeply unconvinced anyone with more than one monitor is effective at what they do. Same belief holds with terminal windows, browser tabs, and life partners.

@allenwalton @jessethanley For sure - don't be the guy staring at his phone while real shit is happening 💯

@AndyFossett @jessethanley I can agree with this, I just think work is 'computer behavior' My main gripe is you shouldn't be telling AI to do stuff for you when you're at the gym, grocery shopping, or at your kids soccer game! Live in the moment!

Everyone trying to get work done from their phone needs to log off entirely

@thisisjonc When I was a kid, I unplugged about half of my father's home recording studio and "rewired" it trying to record some animal noises 🤣 he was not amused.

My oldest was trying to connect the usb C cable from the switch to my oculus quest to play switch on it I applaude the effort and line of thinking

@jessethanley @allenwalton obv, if you're a solo operator or doing freelance, that's maybe a different situation. And I do prefer writing on a laptop, given the option. But I can also do 95% of my work with only tools I carry in my pocket every day, and that's pretty cool.

@AndyFossett @allenwalton My DMs earlier today:

@jessethanley Deeply convinced that anyone who needs more than a smartphone to do their job is not serious about business.

@jessethanley you're just afraid I'll break something 🤣

I jest but in all seriousness a lot of what I work on is dedicated on making the human exp. better and then creating simpler primitives so that external tools can interact with those objects easier. Most of what we've built hasn't been new either it's just either improving the API to offer more functionality w/ what already exists or improving our dev SDKs. The CLI and MCP is basically just a few prompts wrapped around our Node SDK/API. And all the improvements we make to the API normal devs day to day benefit from too. So the AI-specific work helps all users. Then there is the in-app AI features, like the query builder and workflow chat, which has lead to people rage quitting a lot less (/sending me aggressive messages) and reduced churn a bit. Working on these also lead me to improve both those components a lot when you're in manual mode. Trying to find a balance where everyone wins.

I try to avoid being a doomer, but I do feel immense pressure to have my product conform to the new way of working in a way I haven’t felt before. Organic traffic is no longer a distribution strategy, customers don’t want to login anymore, you need to have a CLI/MCP or customers will go elsewhere, our AI features need to be updated weekly and one-shot the most random requests… Your company is at risk if you don’t move fast enough. I’m embracing it but I understand why people are anxious. It’s never ending.

@thisisjonc in fairness, whatsapp is actually just a much better app than iMessage but I've never liked the UI of a single google product, ever

iOS is so bad I'm trying to convince my family to switch the family group chat to WhatsApp so I can main my Pixel.

@chrisorzy @JCDFitness hahaha totally did - it did well with our warm audience

@AndyFossett @JCDFitness please tell me you ran this as an ad lol

@JCDFitness @chrisorzy I believe you mean vimeo.com/655480445

@chrisorzy @AndyFossett

One of the most frustrating parts of training: the plateau You're doing the reps. You're putting in the time. But something's still missing. Progress falls off and cliff, and no amount of additional effort moves the needle anymore. Here's why training plateaus happen.

@_jimmyrose dare you to say that in the mirror three times and then turn off the lights

I hit the transcribe key with WisprFlow, forgot what I was going to say and let it go. This text appeared. Slightly unsettling.

@Melanie_Balke coffee always tastes better when someone else makes it

Can I be honest? I’m sick and tired of grinding my own coffee and no I don’t taste the difference

@allenwalton lmk when the endorsement checks start rolling in

In an effort to get in my best shape since 2018 I now identify as a professional athlete. Should be a lot easier now

@thisisjonc huge cultural loss with unknowable consequences

Funny Engrish going extinct will be the biggest victim of LLMs.
