350-400 hours into OpenClaw over the last 33 days non-stop, no days off...I'm ready to quit. My openclaw is fucking lost in the weeds every day today and it's driving me nuts. Basic shit. I asked it to use GitHub. it has a GitHub skill. We have a GitHub SOP. I can see it's thinking process about using skills, then narrating how the skill doesn't exist, then going and inventing ways to retrieve the capability to use GitHub from the internet. I tell it to look in the openclaw docs for the proper skill path, it says "oops my bad, yeah it was there after all." This is ChatGPT 5.4 with extra high thinking turned on. I ask it to diagnose the problem only, so it goes and sees the system prompt is telling it to look at the wrong place, and it goes to GitHub and opens a GitHub issue about this 'bug' without even asking me. What the actual fuck. 3 hours on a Sunday of trying to rewire the brain of my openclaw to do default-behaviour. This thing such a productivity suck & mental poison. I can't do anything useful or positive with OpenClaw because I'm nonstop fighting fires in the engine room. I'm thinking about giving up.

This is INSANE, Anthropic ran its marketing with basically one person. Austin lau, a non-technical growth lead, was running paid search, paid social, email, and seo solo. Here’s the workflow: > export ad CSVs into Claude Code > AI flags underperforming ads > agents generate new headlines + descriptions > Figma auto-swaps copy across 100 ad templates > MCP server pulls live Meta data The results: > ad creation went from 2 hours to 15 minutes. > total marketing output grew 10×. > conversion rates landed 41% above industry average. One person doing what used to take an entire marketing team.

What are people using to build websites these days? I need a new one for my membership community in LA Currently have the landing page built in carrd

Introducing the new /crawl endpoint - one API call and an entire site crawled. No scripts. No browser management. Just the content in HTML, Markdown, or JSON.

🚨 Someone built a tool that turns any website into clean data your AI can actually use. Give it a URL. It crawls every page. Hands you back perfect markdown. It's called Firecrawl. The web data API that every AI app has been missing. Here's the problem it solves: You paste a URL into ChatGPT. It hallucinates half the content. You try scraping with BeautifulSoup. You get HTML soup with ads, navbars, and cookie banners mixed into your data. Firecrawl fixes this. One URL in. Clean, structured, LLM-ready data out. No sitemap needed. No scraping scripts. No parsing headaches. Here's what it does: → Scrape a single page into clean markdown → Crawl an entire website. Every subpage. Automatically → Extract structured data with a schema you define → Handle JavaScript-rendered pages (SPAs, dynamic content) → Bypass anti-bot protections → Output as markdown, HTML, or structured JSON Here's why everyone building with AI needs this: → Building RAG? Firecrawl turns any documentation site into your knowledge base → Building an AI agent? Give it the ability to read any website properly → Doing competitor research? Crawl their entire site in minutes → Training a model? Convert hundreds of pages into clean training data → Building a search engine? Firecrawl is literally what Perplexica uses under the hood SDKs for Python, Node, Go, and Rust. Integrates with LangChain, LlamaIndex, CrewAI, Dify, and more. Self-hostable.
