Well, this was a ton of fun! Thank you, @MindtheProduct @pendomoniumconf!

@heyrimsha "AI"

Everyone is hyped about Claude… but barely anyone knows how to actually use it to replace real work. I collected 700+ mega prompts that turn Claude into a full-blown productivity engine. Comment "AI" and I’ll DM you everything.

@dashboardlim "GEMINI"

gemini 3 pro is google's smartest model n8n is the easiest automation platform together, they can make up workflows that cost $10k-20k the integration lets you: → build AI agents with little or without code → automate image and document processing → create complex workflows in minutes → configure thinking levels and API settings i made a playbook that covers everything on: - gemini 3 pro + n8n setup - building decision-making agents - advanced configs nobody talks about most people don't know this exists yet learn it before they do comment "GEMINI" and i'll send you the playbook for building AI workflows with gemini 3 pro and n8n

It's always nice to get a notification from my publisher, @OReillyMedia, that an early release is now available. Check it out: atlas.oreilly.com/oreillymedia/d…

@tomcrawshaw01 tell me more about SKILL, please. thank you!

Writing viral posts will never be a struggle again... I packaged every context file, example, and framework that got me 4.5M+ impressions into one Claude skill. Just upload it to your project and Claude instantly references: - 20+ tweets with 100K+ views each - Proven hook formulas - Writing principles that actually work - Real feedback on what converts (and what flops) Most people prompt Claude with zero context and wonder why their posts sound generic. They're basically asking it to write blind. This skill changes that completely. You upload it once to your Claude account and it becomes part of Claude's memory. Now when you say "write a post about X," Claude pulls from battle-tested patterns. - It knows which hooks are overused and market-fatigued. - It understands how to structure posts for maximum engagement. - It references actual examples that crushed it. The skill teaches Claude to write posts that actually convert, and it never runs out of fresh angles. Claude gets better the more you use it together, because you can keep adding to the skill over time. This is the new way to add context to AI. No more copy-pasting examples into every chat. No more re-explaining your style from scratch. Follow + comment "SKILL" and I'll DM you the file

Wait. People are choosing bikes over cars? vox.com/future-perfect… #Biketopia is coming? #cycling

Welp, I was *such* a fan of em-dashes... and now I suppose I have to stop using them. 🤷‍♂️

Well - isn't that cool?

This has to be one of the best TED talks ever. It's sad that somone (@profgalloway) had to give it. youtube.com/watch?v=qEJ4hk…

This great illustration from @anatinge shows what we do during listening sessions. It requires practice, but anyone and everyone can learn how to do it! You wanna know how?

To MVP or not MVP.. That's the wrong question!

Wow. We get interrupted. A lot. typeshare.co/ctodd/posts/yo…
