*NEW BOOK ALERT* 4 years onwards from first toying with the idea, I’m extremely excited to announce that I’ve finally self-published my first book 📒 => Philosophical Suicide. Available in Paperback, E-book, and PDF. 🚀🚀 philosophicalsuicide.com

Men only have 5 moods: 1. Constantly horny 2. how we gonna get rich 3. Random 2 am motivation 4. Intense loneliness 5. My family needs me

We've been building an internal Claude Code plugin system at Intercom with 13 plugins, 100+ skills, and hooks that turn Claude into a full-stack engineering platform. Lots done, more to do. Here's a thread of some highlights.

I’m on week five of trying to vibe code a replacement for some dumb saas that we use and it’s so incredibly frustrating that I’m slowly realizing it’s actually a quite complex and thoughtful piece of software.

Announcing isClaude2x.com - quickly check if Claude is 2x for you or not 👉🏻 Your local timezone 👉🏻 Homepage: UI for you 👉🏻 /short API: Just a yes/no [for you/agent] 👉🏻 /json API: a full JSON object with metadata [for agent]

Starve. Always starve.

Vibe coding is so addictive. You open your laptop “just to fix this one bug” at 5pm and suddenly it’s 2:30am.

Cannot wait for teams that build their custom JIRA/Workday replacement/custom CRM to one day turn around and ask: “Why do we have so much internal software that is buggy / has poor UX + we need to maitain?” Seen this movie well before AI, when Uber built uChat (custom Slack)

Doku is just the Garnacho of Martinellis.

sent this to the team today everything great comes from being able to delay gratification for as long as possible and it feels like we're collectively losing our ability to do that

I'm fascinated by this level of existential crisis developers seem to be going through. The uncomfortable truth is nobody needs you to be an artisan coder. Nobody cares about how you coded your app, or whether you feel an emotional attachment to your craft. You were always code monkey with a high enough salary to believe that your individualist craftsmanship matters to anyone. It doesn't matter to anyone but you. Not your employer, not your customer. Nobody cares about how you made the product. Nobody cares about your attachment to your process. You're experiencing the same as countless other artisans have experienced in the last century. I'm happy for you. You were starting to believe that you're a demigod amongst mortals. You're not. A machine is better than you. Now you're free.

Here is an engineer with rare self-awareness. I know many engineers are in deep denial right now, but I bet most feel the same deep down. As a technical founder, AI has added so many improvements in workflow and productivity, but a lot of this applies to us as well. It's an exciting and confusing place we're all headed.

“Learn Claude skills” My brother in Christ, it’s just a text file where you have to explain what you want done

You’re bored because you’re not doing side quests, man. Life is more than just working and then throwing yourself into bed doing nothing. Here are 50 side quests to complete:

Be honest, is this relatable??

we just wrote the ultimate beginner's guide to OpenClaw almost everyone @every has one now, and they have completely changed the way we work and live. we're using our claws to: - build product - answer customer service queries - book hard-to-get restaurant reservations - track our reading notes and much more this is the guide we wish we'd had at the start: every.to/guides/claw-sc…
