@soyalexbalbuena @DeRonin_ @grok bright and shinny. what difference does it make?

@DeRonin_ @grok is this true ?

🚨 SOMEONE JUST KILLED THE COACHING INDUSTRY a developer spent 22,000 hours building a Personal AI Operating System on top of Claude Code now anyone with a terminal can install it for FREE it knows your goals, remembers every decision you've made, and prepares your morning briefing while you sleep [ the numbers are insane ]: - hours of dev work in it: 22,000 - sessions logged: 6,000 - time saved per day: 2-3 hours - GitHub stars: 12,100 - skills built in: 45 - workflows wired up: 171 - safety hooks: 37 - cost to install: $0 [ the science is wild too ]: no embeddings, no vector databases, no AI magic you can't read every memory, decision, and context lives in plain markdown files you read it with cat, search it with ripgrep, version it with git 4 memory types compound over time: - work memory (active projects, open decisions) - knowledge memory (domain expertise, research) - people memory (contacts, companies, relationships) - learning memory (patterns, mistakes, what works for YOU) every complex task routes through a 7-step cycle: OBSERVE → THINK → PLAN → BUILD → EXECUTE → VERIFY → LEARN privacy is enforced by CODE, not prompts a hook called ContainmentGuard physically blocks sensitive data from being written outside designated zones [ the grift opportunity is even wilder ]: freelancers are already charging $500-2,000 per personal AI setup for executives, founders, and busy operators one person + one weekend = a consulting business that didn't exist 6 months ago every AI productivity app you're paying $30/month for is replaceable by 4 hours of setup work and this one repo REPO: github.com/danielmiessler… 100% OPEN SOURCE, FREE

no context prompt of the day: "why are there 6 different fillet of fish nightmares records"

Do you understand what Browserbase just open-sourced??? an agent that learns any website once, then does the job 10x cheaper forever [ literally how it helps me ]: - writing scrapers for new sites (used to spend half a day per site, every single time) - chasing selectors when sites redesign on a tuesday (lost weeks to this) - digging out hidden APIs buried in network traffic (gave up on this too many times) - explaining to my team HOW the agent does the job (was impossible until now) Autobrowse figured all of that out by itself in 3-5 iterations and saved the answer as a markdown file the next agent reads BEFORE it starts [ how it actually works ]: > give the agent a real task on a real site > it tries, fails, learns, tries again > 3-5 rounds and it converges on a path that just works > writes that path down as SKILL.md > next agent loads it and skips straight to the answer the markdown file IS the memory every browser agent before this had AMNESIA figured out the site, then forgot the second the session closed you've been paying the same discovery tax 100 times in a row.. and not noticing [ Karpathy's auto-research idea, but applied to the web ]: same idea, just different approach Karpathy did it for research and coding loops Autobrowse does it for the open web the new part: Karpathy's loop got smarter inside ONE session Autobrowse SAVES the lesson into a file the next agent reads before it even starts iteration = graduation the agent doesn't just learn.. it leaves a note for every agent that comes after [ the math ]: Craigslist scrape: - generic agent loop: $0.22 / 71 seconds - graduated Autobrowse skill: $0.12 / 27 seconds form-fill task: - run 1: $1.40 - run 4: $0.24 run 1 pays for everything that comes after [ the part that broke my brain ]: they pointed it at a federal grants portal agent dug around and found an undocumented JSON endpoint humans had missed for years a 28-page scrape collapsed into one fetch > an agent tried something a person never would > and found something a person would never see.. 100% OPEN SOURCE, FREE I was digging inside of it for the whole morning and got impressed when I saw such as savings on tokens spending literally for scraping 10 websites, I spent just 12 cents instead of basic $1.02 P.S. Sorry if somewhere my reaction was too "forcing" to setup it, just wanted to mark by BOLD what's the treasure you can skip this, it's your deal ❤️

@dr_cintas The real unlock isn't Claude's intelligence, it's the system you build around it.

@jacob_dietle @ianlapham Yes. You have to set up systems to avoid drift! The machine will push you back into organized chaos!

@ianlapham I built one of these to stay on top of every ai engineering as a context graph. Biggest problem I am fighting right now is taxonomy/general category sprawl it is setup to be self-organizing and does a fairly good job but trends towards disorder by adding bs new categories

After 2 months of everyday use, I can say that setting up a personal research engine is one of the highest-ROI things you can do if you like to learn and stay on top of things at the edge - Use a cloud-hosted agent, probably hermes or openclaw - Learn about memory systems and encoding (cognee is very good at this) - Build the right commands for parsing data and storing it (tag things properly, encode and save full text and key ideas) - Build recurring jobs so the system grows itself (rss ingestion, auto twitter scroll, newsletter following) - Build advanced skills that create connections between ideas, surface the most important info, and create digests for you automatically - Build search retrieval skills that actually pull what you need and don't forget or miss things Will change your life

@ianlapham I’ve set mine up with obsidian. Fun to watch my knowledge graph evolve daily. Even more fun to have real outcomes: workshops, in person connections, and creative outputs like videos and music.

@lsanger dannytwofive.github.io/church-history/

I made a chart.

@krassenstein If you really drove it, then we know for sure you will never trade it in. IYKYK.

I’ve listened. I’ve reflected. I’ve grown. After losing 6,000 followers for buying a Cybertruck, I realized I needed a vehicle that better aligns with my followers’ environmental expectations and moral values. So I traded it in for a beauty that gets 7 MPG and personally accelerates glacier melt every time I tap the gas pedal. The good news is it has absolutely no connection to Elon Musk. Looking forward to earning back your trust, and hopefully those 6,000 refollows.

@m_adams @timhwang Posterity

@timhwang Turns out this meme was a valid research direction

ICMI is releasing a paper today that marks an initial attempt to estimate the sheer scale of the representations of Christian moral reasoning in the sources widely used by frontier labs as pretraining corpora. We find that it is far larger than has been generally acknowledged.

@AnatoliKopadze Here is how i solved the memory mess problem: youtu.be/Q8ju4p9lssM

@IdealGrower @NASAAdmin Show us your vacation photos

If efficiency is such a strong focus, how come that weeks after the return, the public who paid for the trip still have no comprehensive resource to look at all the imagery that was taken during the flight around the moon? The fact that NASA had this embarrassing footage from a last-minute solar panel install during the flight is one thing, but now that all of it has returned and is in digital form available, it can't be called efficient when it takes this long to start showing the public what we paid for.

The President signed an Executive Order to strengthen efficiency and accountability in federal contracting. At NASA, every dollar matters as we return Americans to the Moon and we won’t tolerate inefficient use of taxpayer resources, waste, fraud, or abuse that stands in the way of the mission.

@HeyHealy @KobeissiLetter

@KobeissiLetter Mars is a wandering star, i.e. "planet." It is not terra firma that can be walked on or built upon. So the Mars colony is impossible. If he tries to fake it (like with the Tesla roadster launch), it'll be fun to find the glitches and mistakes in the CGI.

This is incredible: Elon Musk will receive 200 million super-voting shares in SpaceX ONLY IF the company establishes a permanent Mars colony with at least 1 million people. In other words, Elon Musk will only receive this pay package if 1 million people live on Mars. In other words, Elon Musk's biggest goal is now establishing a colony on Mars with a similar population as Dallas, Texas. Musk is so optimistic about this goal that the vast majority of his pay is now contingent on it. Life on Mars is closer than many expect.

@BrianRoemmele Awesome. Wish i could tag my son but he is analog only. Guess I’ll have to talk to him irl.

@dompeet_ @DaveHawkinsX @Rainmaker1973 Too bad the pill obliterated that social signaling ability

@DaveHawkinsX @Rainmaker1973 no, monogamy still optimal immunity is also communicated through smell people rate the smell of others as more attractive whom they are immunologically compatible with from biological standpoint, find someone who has the best natural smell, and then make lots of babies with them

Fertilization is not random, and the fastest sperm does not always win: in reality, the egg decides who succeeds. While for decades we were taught that fertilization is a race won by the fastest sperm, a study published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B shows how human reproduction actually works. Scientists analyzed follicular fluid from 60 couples undergoing fertility treatment at St Mary's Hospital in Manchester, UK. They discovered that the egg releases chemical signals (chemoattractants) that actively attract sperm from certain men over others. Through these chemical signals, the egg exerts its own biological selection, influencing which sperm manage to get close. The egg appears to favor sperm that offer optimal genetic compatibility with its own genome — particularly in genes related to the immune system — which may help produce healthier offspring. Interestingly, this cellular preference does not always align with the couple’s conscious partner choice. In many cases, eggs showed stronger attraction to sperm from non-partner males. This chemical communication demonstrates that female biology continues to evaluate and select options even after intercourse. Understanding this process could lead to more precise solutions for unexplained infertility. Science continues to reveal the remarkable level of biological interaction that occurs during reproduction. [Fitzpatrick, J. L. et al. (2020). Chemical signals from eggs facilitate cryptic female choice in humans. Proceedings of the Royal Society B, 287(1928), 20200805. DOI: 10.1098/rspb.2020.0805]

Started sending a picture of me and my wife when asking for reviews. The text now converts even better. Sent this text to 15 people and got 8 new reviews in under an hour🤝

Just need to send them icons and hagiography /s

@lsanger What is the shelf life of the bits on that drive?

The numbered and signed ZWIBook drives (~70k offline books) are approaching a major milestone: #500! Anyone who places an order of the numbered version, within 24 hours of this post, will have one chance, determined randomly, to obtain this collectible.

@BiblicalBeauty Synchronicity

Helen Roseveare, a missionary who faced intense suffering and persecution during her 20 years of service in the Congo, shares one of the times that she saw God answer prayer in a most unexpected way: "I went to have prayers with our orphanage children as I did every day, and any of the children wanted gathered around me for prayer time, and I'd give them different things to pray about. And this particular day, I told the children of this tiny baby and asked them to pray for the nurses that they would stay awake all night to keep that baby warm. If the baby got cold, it would die. I mentioned that the baby had a 2-year-old sister who was crying because her mommy had died. I mentioned the burst hot water bottle. During prayer time, different children prayed for different things, and then one little 10-year-old girl, Ruth, she prayed in the usual blunt way of our African children, 'Please, God, send us a hot water bottle. Now, God, it'll be no good tomorrow. Send it this afternoon. Now, if it comes tomorrow, the baby will be dead.' I'm sort of swallowing hard, and she said, 'While you're about it, God, would you send a dolly for the little 2-year-old sister, so she'll know that Jesus really loves her?' And that afternoon, the parcel came. It was the first parcel I ever, I've been out there four years, I'd never had a parcel from home. And despite the fact I live on the equator, somebody packing that parcel had been prompted by God to put in a hot water bottle, and a child from my Bible class at home had put in a dolly for a little girl. And it came that afternoon in answer to a 10 year-old child's prayer, and the amazing thing was, you know, that parcel had been on the way five months to get to us. It had left England in July, and it came that afternoon, cause a child prayed."
