Most people don't realize what's possible in @bubble. The answer is pretty much anything. Here's a list of my favorite forum threads that show how to build apps, integrate with APIs, and more:

NEW: Emails released by the House Education Committee show that Qatar pressed American universities with satellite campuses in Doha to coordinate their messaging with the regime in the days following Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, attack. University officials were instructed to “be aligned” to ensure “information sharing and no surprises,” @CAndersonMO reports.

Now we know why Thomas Massie is against Operation Epic Fury... His donors don't want their friends blown to bits. Is this what "America First" looks like?

As Iran has fired something like 1000 missiles at a range of countries, here's a reminder that in the last 20 years ~70,000 have been fired at tiny Israel and the whole world, including the UN, thought they should just tolerate that forever.

@TheMattBerman @openclaw @rapidapi 1000

I replaced a $200K GTM hire with @openclaw 😱 here's the system that runs my outbound: step 1: mine LinkedIn engagement → @rapidapi scrapes everyone engaging with niche content → someone who commented on specific posts = 10x warmer step 2: enrich + verify → Hunter/Apollo finds the decision-maker + email → @Perplexity deep research pulls signals like hiring, fundraising, media appearances, quotes step 3: score against your ICP → title, company, signals = ranked 0-100 → only A-tier leads get touched step 4: write personalized outreach → Claude writes outreach referencing what they ACTUALLY engaged with and talk about step 5: send via @instantly_ai → 3-email sequence. automated follow-ups. step 6: pre-call deep research → @PerplexityComet builds a 1-page briefing 30 min before every call input: your ICP + niche keywords output: booked meetings with people who already care $200K/year GTM engineer → $130/month in APIs. I packaged the entire system as the First 1000 Kit: - all 8 @openclaw skills - every prompt - tool-by-tool setup - email sequences that convert giving it away free. comment 1000 + like + follow (must follow so i can DM)

Well that ends the debate on deaths in Gaza. Hamas itself is admitting that 80% of casualties were combatants. There was never a genocide. You have been lied to and manipulated.

Wordsss turns two today. We refreshed our website with case studies and new branding. Some thoughtsss: It's never been more true that the best story wins. A small team with the right tools can now build a meaningful technology company, with all the bells and whistles: good enough, generic writing, functional design, and a passable brand. "Pretty good" became the default. To stand out, great companies have become more determined to establish a differentiated point of view with distinctive writing and memorable design. Many of the supposed truths I believed about this business were just stories that I made up. The world is fake and made-up — and (almost?) everyone is winging it. Learning that is terrifying, but liberating. "You can just do things" is only part of the story. The other part: very few people do. "The reward for good work is more work." —@kevin2kelly. No coffee meeting, outbound email, or networking event proved more fruitful for business growth than simply sharing our work. I've worked with dozens of founders and the variance in archetypes is seemingly infinite. There is an infectious magnetism (aura?) some have that is hard to articulate, impossible to replicate, and incredibly energizing. Find people that energize you and spend more time with them. I recognize that the goalposts have shifted, and I'm reminding myself to stop and appreciate how far we've come, while respecting that the floor and ceiling are both objectively higher. It is our moral obligation to be optimistic. And it is a very wise business decision. The world is going to change a lot — faster and more dramatically than ever before. It's going to be weird, but I believe it's going to be wonderful. Buckle up! I keep coming back to one @tyleralterman thought that perfectly encapsulates the greatest lesson of the @wordsssdotcom experiment: "Anyone who's become radically more capable of creating what they want to see in the world passionately launched into an ambitious public-facing project." This has been the most exciting and rewarding chapter of my career so far. I feel lucky and grateful to have made this well-timed bet. Your turn.

Former U.S. Education Secretary William Bennett just registered as a foreign agent for Qatar. He’s being paid $30K/month to convince Americans that Qatari universities don’t support Islamist extremism.

If you aren't aware of what's going on right now, let me break it down for you. Jews worldwide are being hunted down and killed. It's only day three of Hanukkah, and already we've seen: 1. Jews murdered by a jihadi father-son duo in Australia that seriously wounded many people, including my friend @Ostrov_A (thinking of you, brother). 2. Students at @BrownUniversity were murdered in a class being taught by Rachel Friedberg, a Jewish professor who leads the school's Judaic Studies program. 3. A Jewish professor of nuclear physics at M.I.T. was murdered in his home today. 4. Orthodox Jews in New York were violently assaulted on the subway. 5. Violent Palestinian protestors disrupted a peaceful Hanukkah celebration in Amsterdam. Dozens were arrested after police had to physically surround families celebrating the holiday to protect them. 6. A Jewish family in California had their home hit by gunfire because they had Hanukkah decorations up. One of the criminals shouted, "Free Palestine." 7. An Islamic terrorist attack has been foiled in Poland at a Christmas market. 8. An Islamic terrorist attack has been foiled in Germany at a Christmas market. 9. A Palestinian terrorist attack was foiled in California. 10. France has cancelled its NYE celebrations because of the terrorist threat level. 11. Canada's Integrated Terrorism Assessment Centre has said that a terrorist attack in Canada is now "a realistic possibility." I've been studying terrorism for 20 years, and I've never seen things this bad. The West is under attack – full stop. The question now is, what the hell are we going to do about it?

🔴 This story says everything. Eyal Waldman, one of Israel’s top high-tech innovators & founder of Mellanox, believed in peace through opportunity. In 2017, he opened a development hub inside Gaza, giving hundreds of Palestinian engineers high-paying jobs, dignity, and a future. He said proudly: “There are talented and smart people in Gaza. Cooperation reduces fear. Working together brings our nations closer.” 👉 He chose hope. 👉 He chose coexistence. 👉 He chose to invest in the very people the world said Israel was “oppressing.” And then came October 7. Palestinian terrorists crossed the border and murdered his 24-year-old daughter, Danielle, less than a mile from the center he built to give Gazans opportunity. Read that again: He - gave - them - jobs. This is the truth people refuse to look at: Israel reached out with opportunity. Hamas answered with slaughter. If this doesn’t expose the lie behind the “resistance” narrative, nothing will.

🚨BREAKING: Permission granted for publication: An IDF soldier was killed in a Hamas attack today. 🕯️Yona Ephraim (Efi) Feldbaum. Efi, 37, father of five. Efi served in the reserves even though he was not obligated to. May his memory be blessed.💔

“He only threw a rock.” Tell that to Adele Biton, age 4, killed by one.

Two of the "Zionist collaborators" Hamas executed in Gaza are 5 and 7 years old boys. The kids were murdered for belonging to a family who criticized Hamas about murdering Palestinians.

This is a lie. America gives Israel a credit for almost all of the aide except 500,000 dollars. And we don’t pay for tens of billions of dollars of cyber security and counter intelligence that Israel provides as a result of the MOU signed under Obama (huge Israel hater in 2009). This is what I mean, I hate being lied to and these people do it on a daily basis. Israel “aide” makes up 0.062% of the total yearly budget and 3.2 billion of that has to be spent buying US weapons manufactured in US factories that employ Americans. Only 500,000 of that goes to missile defense. Ask him how many people would be laid off if that credit is cut off tomorrow? He doesn’t mention that. He also mention the 71.9 billion dollars of foreign aide we give in CASH to other countries. Now why is that? Dude, what’s the difference between this and AOC? Nothing anymore.

Reports are coming in that the Hamas leadership in Qatar have been eliminated by Israel. Among them was Husam Badran – the man who orchestrated the murder of my 16-year old cousin Orly. Finally he won't be able to hurt any more children. Rest now Orly.🕯️

Another horrific Terror Attack by Palestinians in Israel Why does Israel have checkpoints in the West Bank? Here is a list of *just* the Palestinian *suicide bombings* between 2001-2003 (part of the 2nd Intifada)

🔴 Want to know what really happens at Gaza aid sites from someone who spent weeks securing them? I’ve returned from a third tour in Gaza, and here’s my experience of what really goes on at SDS that is missing from the conversation👇

The Iranian regime targeted Soroka Hospital in Beersheba with a ballistic missile—hitting a major medical center. We will not stand by. We will continue doing what must be done to defend our people.

Very true...

Alright, don't stop there, let’s talk about what happened to him? He was killed on the spot. His grave was never turned into a shrine. There’s no statue of him, no streets named after him, no schools teaching children to honor his “sacrifice.” When Yitzhak Rabin stood before the Knesset, he didn’t hesitate to call Goldstein a criminal and a Nazi. Jews do not celebrate terrorists. They do not turn murderers into martyrs. They don’t name public squares after them, they don’t put their faces on murals, and they don’t teach children to aspire to be like them. Israel condemns its extremists, hunts them down, imprisons them, and ensures their ideology dies with them. Now, look across the divide. In the Muslim world, terrorists are immortalized. They’re role models, their crimes rewritten as acts of heroism, their names passed down as legends. The more blood they spill, the more streets, schools, and statues they get. Sinwar is a hero. Hassan Nasrallah has a shrine. Abu Musab al-Zarqawi is glorified. Osama bin Laden, is still a beloved figure to millions. Saddam Hussein, who gassed his own people, started wars, and terrorized his country, is a legend in the Arab world.

18,365 terror attacks in 2024. This is the threat we’re up against.
