Wemby moved into a new category last night.

I think it's time for bed, let's pick this back up tomorrow.

🚨 Our varsity Men’s Triad FIRST48 “County Clash” has been moved from the end of the 25/26 school year to the beginning of the 26/27 year. 🗓️ Saturday, August 15th, 2026 📍TBD Let’s see who the best players in the TRIAD are entering the 26/27 Season!

Claude as been terrible this week, don't know what they did but it's guessing a lot, drifting and not listening.

UAA has outsourced it's grassroots to 3 Step & it's obvious the focus has been on paying teams NOT on it's top teams. Mike Barnett whose company is/was owned by 3Step is no longer involved with Adidas 3SSB. Nike EYBL is directly controlled by persons who are Nike employees

Dinos -- I don't think most people realize that most of these "circuits" are run by third party companies that get funding from shoe companies as marketing spend -- They decide who gets dollars. Not the brands themselves. 3STEP Sports controls a ton of it all by themselves.

AI tools are so easy anyone can…well sort of. They are learning new skills. They probably now know about CLIs, Terminals, GitHub, IDEs, APIs, MCPs and plugins… It’s not that now anyone can do it, they always could have, they are just learning new skills faster.

Everyone keeps asking me what @routemize does! Simply put, it solves this problem: Field services cannot book instant appointments this way. I have known and tried to solve this problem for 7 years now, because I personally have dealt with this. In @dripjobs the way we overcame this was to create a "request" based form, which allowed the user to review every request manually before allowing a booking to go through. This would rely on their ability to know the terrain in order to identify the best place to put the appointment, along with many other factors. It worked, but it wasn't efficient, and still isn't. My co-founder @rickschott and I decided to spin off and create another app - @routemize, because of how many layers are required to actually pull off instant bookings with route-optimization configured at the point of booking. It had to be perfect. The theory was: Someone needs to be able to go to a booking form, and select a time, without any lapse - instantly, and that time, be perfectly optimized - as if a human were looking at it and making a decision. And we DID it. It's currently being used in my painting business, and a few others. The results are insane. It works, and of course, it plugs right into @dripjobs, seamlessly. This will be BIG.

Anthropic just mass-obsoleted every agent orchestration startup in a single launch. The screenshot tells the full story. That's a production fleet dashboard. 8 agents running. 247 completed tasks. Active status. MCP-connected to HubSpot, pulling deals, generating proposals, reading attachments. This isn't a demo. It's a managed production environment where you define the agent and Anthropic runs the infrastructure. The timing here is surgical. Four days ago, Anthropic blocked OpenClaw and every third-party harness from using subscription credentials. The message was clear: stop building on top of our consumer auth layer. Now here's the replacement. A first-party managed agent platform with fleet monitoring, production-grade MCP integrations, and prototype-to-launch timelines measured in days. Manus spent six months on five harness rewrites. LangChain spent a year on four architectures. Anthropic just shipped the managed version that eliminates the need to build one at all. The real bet: most companies don't want to build agent infrastructure. They want agents that work. Anthropic is pricing this into the platform the same way AWS priced server management into EC2. The 46% of enterprises citing "integration with existing systems" as their primary agent challenge just got a first-party answer from the model provider itself. Every agent startup that raised on "we make Claude reliable in production" just lost their pitch deck.

Are you kidding me?! 🤯 Last night at 9:40pm my house painting business got a phone call. Our @routemize AI Voice agent handled the entire call, end to end and scheduled a perfect appointment 7.1 miles away from an existing appointment scheduled that same day. Here’s what would’ve normally happened: 1. Call goes to voicemail 2. Admin calls in morning 3. Admin fumbles trying to find a spot for the customer. Doesn’t have time to see which spot is closest while on the phone 4. Picks a slot that “feels right” 5. *IF the customer even answers in the morning Routemize will be the favorite app of anyone who runs a home service business. API friendly and can plug into any software stack. Preferably @dripjobs 😉

9:28PM - lead comes in. @dripjobs follows up with them, @routemize books them. Can you name a better duo?!

With his fourth made 3-pointer tonight, Kon Knueppel set a new franchise record for 3PM in a season (261). Knueppel breaks the record set by Kemba Walker in 2018-19.

First real @routemize demo today. Here are the results:

8 appointments booked with Routemize today for my painting business. We've achieved AGI. Jk, it's pretty amazing though to have appointments automatically scheduled, in a route-optimized fashion, when before my admin would simply "guess" what spot would be best, and there was a TON of scheduling friction. @routemize

CLAUDE INSTANCES CAN NOW TALK TO EACH OTHER LIKE COWORKERS. Instead of one assistant doing everything alone, multiple Claude Code sessions can share context, coordinate tasks, and work like an actual AI team on your machine.

Miss my guy @m_shockley this time of year, @TriadAllStar and March Madness...RIP Marcus!

Facts nothing!!! Day after day of insane plays.

Oh my March Madness!!!!!!
