the only way to survive as an ADHD person

@MacroSloan2929 @MartinShkreli It’s just another channel bro. Especially if you’re freelance. You want inbound and outbound and relational selling all working for you at once.

@HamptonPhillip @MartinShkreli Just get to know people. Stop relying on being found in a pile of 20,000 applications by using the right buzz words

when i was younger, i was very insecure. i did this kind of thing too. over time you learn that it is critical to be truthful and not misleading about every single thing you do. i had to learn this lesson the hard way, but boy, have i internalized it. UNDERSELL yourself.

@MacroSloan2929 @MartinShkreli Those are people tailoring their profiles for applicant tracking systems that recruiting teams use at enterprise companies to filter thousands of applicants. Martin is insulated from that world and so he can get away with a sparse profile.

@HamptonPhillip @MartinShkreli "Collaborate daily with SMEs to drive engagement and results around strategic initiatives" Versus "Engaged contributor, happy to he here" Nobody wants to work with #1

People have accused me my whole life of taking stimulants at this point I just take it as a compliment. I’m thankful for my natural energy levels, it would suck to slog through everything and not be excited by life. It’s also environmental, like maybe if you changed your environment you too could be more naturally stimulated by your life.

the gamer -> incredibly successful businessman pipeline needs to be studied

the sleep obsession of Opus must be studied

The concept of healthy hair is kind of a misnomer. Everything growing out of your head is dead, so what people are really saying when they say, "Oh, your hair looks so healthy" is that the dead bush on top of your head covered in argan oil looks really nice

@micsolana is it concering really or is the same phenomena as someone just reading a lot of Hemingway starting to talk like a Hemingway novel? Not necessarily a bad thing.

I have started to notice very smart people who use AI every day, typically as a kind of thought partner, have started to sound like AI, not only employing whatever popular new turn of phrase, but in this kind of bulleted cadence of speaking — a copy of a copy. concerning!

I’ve been getting this message about 10x more in Opus 4.7 than I did with 4.6. I’m constantly correcting this model on coding errors and I’m not even a full-stack developer. The degradation is palpable. It’s rushing through work on max thinking, not confirming wider context window. @AnthropicAI what gives?

You dont want a yacht. You dont want a big house. You dont want a super car, a $40,000 watch, or shoes you worry about getting dirty. You want free will. You want to wake up naturally on a Tuesday and you want to go to bed when you’re done having fun. You want to say yes to everything that excites you without having to request time off. You want to go to the the gym at noon, in absolutely no hurry. You want to spend 18 hours a day doing what you love. You want to be exactly where you desire being, always. You want to spend as much time with the people you care about as possible. You’re saying you wanna be rich? In what?

Claude can do this too, it’s just Windows MCP

AI psychosis is not a static thing and you will fall behind rapidly if you think otherwise. 12 months ago it would've been psychosis to claim you could solve Erdos problems with ChatGPT and now it's almost mundane. AI psychosis can essentially be defined as the delta between what you think agents can do and what agents can do. Real psychosis is thinking agents are capable of fundamentally impossible things, accidental psychosis is overestimating capabilities. That said, I'd much rather work with people who overestimate and rapidly iterate their mental models. The systems *will* improve and the class of possible outputs will begin to rise to what people formerly thought of as psychosis. This is "good psychosis" because you'll be ahead of the curve when the models catch up. Much of what looks like psychosis today will not be psychosis in another year. Just do your best to understand the true model ceilings and constantly update your priors as new models get released.

@jonallie You need a business with clients that have rote manual tasks for you to complete. You automate those with cron jobs and deterministic scripts and then you print.

I think I must be lacking imagination, but I can't think of a single thing I'd want to do with openclaw. Admittedly, I've not looked deeply into what it can do, but none of the use cases I've seen have seemed compelling. I don't want to message my lights on telegram; I'm happy to compose my own emails; and I don't want a schedule that is so challenging that navigating my calendar requires machine intelligence. I'm bullish on agents for coding, but even in that narrow domain they make enough mistakes that I don't want a similar thing driving life decisions for me or having unfettered access to my data. The enthusiasm around them makes me wonder what I've missed.

@staysaasy I need posts like this to continue misleading people so I can reap all the benefits while others whine and cry and achieve 1/16th of my productivity level.

So my buddy has changed his entire life with his OpenClaw. He used to be perpetually busy and distracted. Always late. Super flakey. And frankly miserable. He. Has. Changed. Overnight. I hang out with him 3x more because his claw makes scheduling with him so easy. His wife says he has an extra 8 hours a week of time with his family because the claw has automated so much of his life. He went from the most scattered person I know to the most reliable. Tech is beautiful man. Of course this is complete fiction. I know 0 people who have had any durable life changes from the world’s most hyped personal assistant. Maybe 2027 will be the year these dreams come true.
