I started a newsletter: While You Were Working Every Thursday — one AI development that actually matters for your business. Explored properly. → The Signal: what happened and why it matters → The So What: 2-3 things you can do THIS week → Quick Hits: other developments worth 30 seconds No prompt tips. No tool listicles. Just what I'd tell another operator over coffee. I run ops at a 1,000-person company. This is the AI newsletter I wished existed. Subscribe: wyww.substack.com

To manage growing demand for Claude we're adjusting our 5 hour session limits for free/Pro/Max subs during peak hours. Your weekly limits remain unchanged. During weekdays between 5am–11am PT / 1pm–7pm GMT, you'll move through your 5-hour session limits faster than before.

I want to start a group chat for runners. 32 people max. Two reqs: 1. You need to have an iPhone (sorry green bubbles) 2. You need to be a runner. You don’t need to be elite. You just need to be committed. We’ll make each other stronger, faster, better. Who wants in?

@Austen Facing the same issue. It would take me ages to get Claude cowork or even code to do the same as my openclaw almost out of the box... No need

The biggest reason OpenClaw took off is because you could actually do stuff with it. Claude is supposedly building out the tools to allow you to do stuff, but everything is built with kid gloves in mind.

IF YOU'RE ON OPENCLAW DO THIS NOW: I just sped up my OpenClaw by 95% with a single prompt Over the past week my claw has been unbelievably slow. Turns out the output of EVERY cron job gets loaded into context Months of cron outputs sent with every message Do this prompt now: "Check how many session files are in ~/.openclaw/agents/main/sessions/ and how big sessions.json is. If there are thousands of old cron session files bloating it, delete all the old .jsonl files except the main session, then rebuild sessions.json to only reference sessions that still exist on disk." This will delete all the session data around your cron outputs. If you do a ton of cron jobs, this is a tremendous amount of bloat that does not need to be loaded into context and is MAJORLY slowing down your Openclaw If you for some reason want to keep some of this cron session data in memory, then don't have your openclaw delete ALL of them. But for me, I have all the outputs automatically save to a Convex database anyway, so there was no reason to keep it all in context. Instantly sped up my OpenClaw from unusable to lightning quick

What I like better: easy, much more stable & safe, existing connectors mean better integration with gmail, browsers, etc. Very good tool use What is missing for me: ability to invite Claude to any channel, heartbeat/proactivity, multiple sessions (right now dispatch is one chat)

After using it a bit, Claude Cowork Dispatch covers 90% of what I was trying to use OpenClaw for, but feels far less likely to upload my entire drive to a malware site.

funnily I thought people would pick completely different options... I also got bored, had to unsubscribe to many as I was just getting an endless list of new tools to try (which I obviously don't have time for I even shifted my own newsletter to be much more focused on 1 issue per week

My OpenClaw bot builds websites & mails a postcard with a QR link to local businesses on autopilot... You can use it to land new customers without a single cold call, here's how it works: - Finds 100s of local businesses via Google Maps - Builds each one a custom website in minutes - Prints a real postcard with their site preview + QR code - Mails it directly to their door - They scan it, see their site, and reach out - Runs 24/7 completely hands off Direct mail gets a much higher response rate than cold email. Reply "OpenClaw" and I'll send you the full breakdown of how you can do it too (must be following so I can DM)

i might be wrong, but National Parks will solve our data center crisis obviously i don't want to destroy them, but Arches National Park (for example) has all this space under the arches we could easily throw a few server racks there, without destroying the natural beauty i'd even argue it's more beautiful, due to shareholder value has anyone else thought of this, or should i patent it?

Heads up for anyone using Cowork + Claude Code: I connected the Slack connector in one Cowork workspace, then opened a different workspace on the same machine in Claude Code and still had access to that Slack connector. I expected connectors to stay workspace-specific, but this behavior suggests they’re scoped at the account level instead. That surprised me, but there’s a positive side: once connected, your tools are available across contexts, so setup is faster and less repetitive. Still worth knowing from a security/access expectation standpoint.

My Claude Cowork guide blew up this week. So I recorded the full step-by-step walkthrough (plus some extra sauce). In this video I show the exact 10 tips I use to turn Cowork into a real daily operator (as a non-developer): 1. Import your memory from tools like ChatGPT or Gemini 2. Set global instructions 3. Use plan mode before execution 4. Build the right folder/context structure 5. Install plugins 6. Connect Slack 7. Connect Google Calendar 8. Connect Gmail 9. Use skills for repeatable high-quality outputs 10. Set scheduled tasks for automated daily briefings And to make it even easier to get started, I prepared a full guide with all of my prompts you can copy/paste: github.com/JJenglert1/get… This is everything you need to not only get started with cowork for the first time, but to have it do real work for you that actually matters. If this helped you, I’d love your help spreading the word. Share it with a friend or colleague who wants to stop just talking with AI and start having AI actually do work for them.

Hey look, they wrote an article about Varick Agents. The pitch to companies is simple: you know you need AI, but it's actually very hard to do properly. This is not a traditional software engineering problem. Balancing context, governance, access, and autonomy is a tricky problem that requires AI engineers you can trust. It's also not a problem that SaaS off the shelf can help you with. There's a reason why there's been effectively 0 ROI from enterprise adoption of 'AI SaaS'. You just spent the last 3 years migrating to your NetSuite, and the AI that your company adopts should live on top of it, not force you to replace it. Same with your Ramp, your Salesforce, etc. Let Varick come into your company, understand what your company does, and build AI agents that live on TOP of your systems of record, without forcing you to rip it out. Vibe coding one workflow after the next doesn't work. There's a reason why our clients see 30-50% efficiency gains by month 3. If you're C-Suite at a company doing over 250M ARR, schedule a call, I'll show you how to implement AI the right way. Also we're hiring, aggressively. We can't keep up with demand. DM if you're a top 1% engineer - in-person SF only.

If you feel like you are way out ahead of your team in terms of AI adoption, pls DM me, I would love to help
Alex Lieberman@businessbarista

I've been asking $100m+ company execs one question: "What is the #1 thing slowing/stopping your company's AI transformation?" A non-exhaustive list of responses: 1) Data quality and connectivity of systems. Plus systems that play nice with AI. 2) Lack of leadership buy-in and implementation 3) Data governance restrictions. 4) Willingness of staff to adopt AI. 5) Incurious culture. Lack of knowledge of the current state of AI 6) Tooling doesn't have API access; team is still learning how to use LLMs. 7) Industry regulation/privacy. 8) Data quality and lack of a comprehensive AI system across the full company. 9) Unclear ownership across teams. 10) Time to actually build solutions. 11) Mixed AI literacy levels across teams. 12) No clear strategy / I'm starting the initiative from scratch. 13) Quality output. 14) Upskilling developers. 15) Silos. 16) Data Security and Security Guideline unclear. 17) Lack of training. 18) Data quality is unclear across multi-product teams. 19) Time. What would your answer be to this question?

is anyone running multiple instances of openclaw? what does that look like logistically? talking self-contained instances with different access to different resources. though might be nice if they could interact? 🤔
