Announcing the AC0, the kit to bring the power of aerotowing to any plane. This transforms PLANES into TRAINS. With 65% fuel savings, skytrains might be how aviation not only cleans up its act, but grows into a much larger and more robust industry...

I think it would be healthy for most tech bros to socialize just a little bit with the Brooklyn lefty journalist types to get a sense for why things like this happen: There’s very little ideology there. Just disdain and jealousy. They have a sort of permasneer that seems outwardly pretentious and maybe even cultured but it really does disguise a tacit approval for violence. They’d never do violence themselves. Thats below them. But they’ll push journalism that villainizes their chosen enemies, consequences be what they may.

Single/low occupancy cars + low cost street parking are the #1 problem with SF traffic by far. But @SFMTA_Muni shift changes are such low hanging fruit to fix. Idk why but full bus sat through at least three lights and 4 minutes for two 22 bus drivers to gossip outside. This was not a bus too close to the one in front - actually the opposite.

Today I learned that @SFMTA_Muni, @MTA, and @SFBART all have ~20x - 70x more staffing costs on a per rider trip basis than Tokyo's Metro system. US public transit is a scam that exists to employ politically desirable populations in exchange for votes.

@iarora_ It took a lot of wrangling. Didn’t want this to be a thread just about that prompts to use but I’ll consider throwing some up since it took an hour to figure out the right approach to talking with Claude to generate maximal creativity

@prescottwatson the hyper interactivity of the site is so impressive!! I've struggled to get claude to create sites as creative as this

Big national security meetings on Monday. Prepped weeks to get BEAUTIFUL materials. Only ONE change required. But my designer goes offline Sunday night. Zero design skills. Near-zero powerpoint skills. But I hear a monkey can code interactive sites with Claude. Let's try.

if you're a business exec lurking on Claude Code twitter wondering what to do No, I don't offer classes. Nor should you buy any. Just start. Literally, stop reading this, and sign up. Ask Claude how to use Claude. You'll thank me in 12 hours.

I put this site up with a subset of the materials we've prepared for these briefings on American readiness because (1) it's worth knowing about - InTheFightTonight.com and (2) it's worth people seeing how much a literal newbie can do in 12 hours with Claude Code

@elonmusk Democracy is supposed to be an immune system against such parasites. California not requiring voter ID is how the parasites manage to stay in power indefinitely.

Connecting SF and LA - our tech and defense hubs, should be considered a national security imperative. Trump should give Elon the money to build the tunnel and override the corrupt local bureaucracies that clearly are mainly trying to sabotage the state.

@Teslaconomics @boringcompany The real reason for the “high speed rail” is money-laundering to bureaucrats, consultants & unions, not actually transport. That is where the billions spent so far have gone. That is why they don’t want an actually cost-efficient high speed transport system.
