@MichLieben Claude Code

We spent hundreds of hours building Claude Code skills for our $7M ARR GTM agency (and we're giving them away for free) - ICP research - signal scoring - cold email writing - sales intelligence - campaign intelligence. These run inside every system we build for 70+ B2B clients. Reply "Claude Code" and I'll send you the Github repo with everything.

@mikefutia NANO

Claude Code + Nano Banana 2 is f*cking cracked 🤯 I built a system inside Claude Code that researches any brand, writes 40 ad prompts from scratch, and fires them all to Nano Banana 2. One brand name + one URL = 40 production-ready static ads. All inside Claude Code. I took @alexgoughcooper's brilliant framework and automated the whole thing inside Claude Code. Perfect for DTC brands and agencies who need high-volume ad creative without briefing a designer or spending hours in Canva. If you're finding winning ad concepts on Meta and manually recreating them one at a time in Higgsfield — copying prompts, pasting product details, tweaking aspect ratios, downloading, organizing... This system eliminates the entire loop: → Give Claude a brand name and URL → It researches the brand's fonts, colors, packaging, and photography style → Builds a Brand DNA document from scratch → Fills in Alex's 40 proven ad templates (headline, us vs them, testimonial, UGC, review cards, stat callouts) with brand-specific details → Fires every prompt to Nano Banana 2 with your product photos as reference → Downloads finished ads into organized folders with an HTML gallery No Higgsfield. No manual prompt filling. No copy-pasting between tools. What you get: → 40 ad formats filled with your exact brand colors, fonts, and copy → 4 variations per format so you pick the best output → Product photos passed as reference so the model matches your real packaging → A reusable system — new brand, new folder, same pipeline Built 100% in Claude Code with Nano Banana 2. I put together a full playbook & Loom video showing the exact process to set this up yourself.

@simonkubica @alloyapp ALLOY

It’s official – I’m excited to introduce Alloy (@alloyapp), the world’s first tool for prototypes that look exactly like your product. All year, PMs and designers have struggled with off-brand prototypes – built with “app builder” tools that look nothing like their existing app. They’re left with confused stakeholders, prototypes they can’t show customers, and demos where they’re apologizing for the design. Your prototypes should look like your actual product. Starting today, they can. Alloy is AI Prototyping built for Product Management: ➤ Capture your product from the browser in one click ➤ Chat to build your feature ideas in minutes ➤ Share a link with teammates and customers ➤ 30+ integrations for PM teams: Linear, Notion, Jira Product Discovery, and more In lab results, Alloy delivers 3-5x more detail than alternatives when you start from an existing product. It’s powered by groundbreaking technology you won’t find in any other tool. Alloy is now available for you to try for free. Comment “ALLOY” and I’ll DM you an invite with instant access and extra credits.

@Jkylebass @elonmusk Publishing this data would not create more racism. Instead, it might compel community leaders to take responsibility and confront the realities it reveals. These leaders are off the hook until then.

@elonmusk They must release public videos if FOIAd?

💯

@OMApproach @grok Where can I get a copy of this report?

No, I'm not letting this go! This leaked report is one of the most important leaks because in 2003 it showed what was going to happen at this time and in the following 10 to 20 years, and it's happening today! That's why the renowned journalist Leslie Kean, who broke the UAP story in 2017 in The New York Times, talks about the near future, saying that things will only get worse and much of what we have today will be gone! The leaked scientific report, which was meant only for internal use by the Pentagon, explains all the madness in the world today. In 2004 they downplayed the leak, but today everyone should pay attention! This is going to be a shocking thread, but everyone should read it! (1/7)🧵

Great perspective. 👍

@Jacobsklug @lovable Build

After generating $250K (last 2 months) I built a playbook for @lovable apps—and I’m giving it away. In just two months, we cracked the code to building apps with AI. I’ve distilled everything we learned into this single document. Comment "Build" and drop a follow. I’ll DM it to you. P.S. This will likely blow up, so give me some time to reply.

@balajis Balaji is back... 👏

PROMPTS ARE TINY PROGRAMS We’re now about 18 months into the AI revolution. One thing that was uncertain in late 2022 was whether prompt engineering would be around to stay, or whether better AI would quickly obviate it. I now think it’s around to stay and I have an explanation that makes sense to me, at least: prompt engineering is just a subset of software engineering. That is, prompts are tiny programs written in natural language. But the API isn’t specified and varies between models. So guessing the right “function calls” with clever use of vocabulary is a huge part of the game. On the other hand, even if you don’t guess *exactly* the right words to use, the model will often do what you mean. This is different from how we normally think of an API, which is both more legible and more fragile. The exact words to make an API do what you want are written down, but if you don’t say those exact words it won’t do what you want. Even given this difference, the concept of prompts as tiny programs using hidden APIs helps explain the bizarre magic associated with specific phrases. I’m reminded of Quake3’s fast inverse square root[1,2], which has a famously obscure incantation in C that just so happened to deliver a 4X speedup. More code now looks like that, and it makes sense. C is how you talk to machines and English is how you talk to humans. So, just like you write part of a large application in C for performance, you’ll also write part of it in English for dealing with unstructured data. You can go further with this analogy. Once you think of prompts as code, you can probably generate model-aware syntax highlighters for favored keywords. You can maybe automatically generate API-like docs from a model for the most common use cases. And you can think of every new model you add to your codebase as roughly analogous to adding a new programming language — because just as it takes time for someone to ramp up on the idioms of Rust, they’ll need to play around with the latest Mistral to get the hang of how to talk to it. Anyway — this is all probably obvious to folks spending 100% of their time in the field, and is similar to some of the things @karpathy has posted about, but at least for me it was a useful articulation of why prompts are around to stay: prompts are tiny programs.

@Ross__Hendricks @Biomaven Your post literally says they're doling out cash. 😂

@Biomaven No one said they were doling out “cash” but it’s a real expense paid for by shareholders. The point was to compare the sheer volume of stock comp vs net income. No sane world where managers make more than the owners.

@Petar_DRC @SawyerMerritt Based on what? Opinion?

@SawyerMerritt I don't think that is true in most Western markets. Many people leaving electric cars after 5-7 years.

NEWS: Less than 1% of EV owners switch back to gas-powered cars after making the purchase, according to a new Global EV Driver Survey, which includes over 23,000 people from 18 countries. "Reports of declining EV popularity are greatly exaggerated,” says Petter Haugneland, Assistant Secretary General of The Norwegian EV Association. Results show that lower operating costs are the most important motivation for buying an EV. “This should serve as an eye-opener for policymakers worldwide. While a vibrant electric vehicle market is crucial for reducing climate emissions from road transport, achieving this goal hinges on making EVs an even more affordable option for all,” says Ellen Hiep, board member of the Dutch Electric Vehicle Drivers Association.

@wilmdawg @coffeelance @sweatystartup @cliftonsellers Are you talking technically or legally? There's a difference.

@coffeelance @sweatystartup @cliftonsellers You still can’t drive a Tesla with FSD under the influence, dumbass

Something that drives me nuts: Rich people who brag about driving 10 year old vehicles. You are putting the safety of yourself and your family at risk to make a point. You need advanced tech like emergency braking, lane assist, blind spot monitoring. It’s a stupid thing to do.

@stclairashley Don, that's not why they're voting for him.

Don Lemon says he asked black men in battleground states who they’re voting for “And time after time, after time, they said, 'I'm voting for Donald Trump.'"

@AutismCapital Schulz is a complete moron.

🚨 TRUMP ON ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT SCHULZ: “Are you scared?” TRUMP: “No. I’m not scared. I have an attitude of it is what it is. I felt I had to go back…and I had no guitar. 🎸If you have a guitar, it’s easy.” SCHULZ: “I thought you said Qatar.” TRUMP: “No, I have Qatar.” 😂 😂
