@masatoalexander Yes, felt like a vein bulging inside the brain. Can't quite place it. My best guess is something with pressure.

anyone ever got a sudden sharp headache on a high rep squat set? happened to me last week and again today. didn't feel really painful but came on fast and left fast after i racked the weight.

When someone writes "the classic..." that's a dead giveaway it's an LLM.

@maxclark Feels like that button should be its own setting. Like "Don't allow for contacts sync".

I hard reset every rental when I return it No I don't allow contacts or favorites to sync either

Started checking Instagram only on Sunday. On a separate device. What else deserves such a quarantine?

Lesson learned? Started writing an ad for skilfull hobby with sharp tools. Positioned it as a replacement for meditation. Not a good idea to suggest sharp objects to stressed people.

And what skills actually lacked. The tech guy lacked marketing. The marketing guy, tech (some of the time). The idea guy both. Polimaths making a comeback.

The leaner you get, the more anti-fat you become. Once movement becomes easier, the more you want to do it.

@ThePrimeagen @ThePrimeagen talking with @levelsio about AI coding sounds like a lot of fun. Literally polar opposite takes from both of you.

I regularly use ai. It's just these dumb takes. People code by hand all the time. In fact, my assumption that it is still the dominant form of meaningful code production today.

@naval Duty is most visible in the face of hardship.

A man expresses love through duty.

For anyone running local models. Has a local model with a GPU like RTX 5070 (and model like Qwen), outperformed Claude? If so, what did the local setup look like?

@JamesonCamp Speedy recovery. :)

Day 11 post surgery excited to be back in a gym doing real PT Here is my protocol for healing post partial meniscectomy and getting back to running 20 miles a week and gym 6 days a week > Daily Mobility and light PT > 3 days a week real in person PT > 2 500mg shots a day of BPC157 > 2 shots of tb500 2.5mg weekly > .75-1g of protein per lb daily (I’m 195 6’2) > 10mg of creatine monohydrate daily > as much sleep as I can get Was very blessed to have head physician for the Lakers and US basketball team, Dr. Kristofer Jones do my surgery They thought they would have to remove 30% of the cartilage from my meniscus and he ended up doing only 15-20% Fingers crossed - amazing that I can already walk around no crutches Open to more suggestions - longevity and personalized health I’m pretty passionate about

Reached 1200 rating on Chess @lichess Time to reach 1200 rating in @Meta ads.

@masatoalexander I bet it's about emotional damage. Something you poured your heart into is no longer there (the L1 chain). But it could be anything.

crypto to fitness pipeline remains strong

Conclusions from playing chess on different ratings. 600-900 - Don't lose pieces. 900-1100, learn an opening. 1100+ learn variations.

@JamesonCamp That fourth one. I truly believe we need another level of intelligence to find a moral and fix whatever is the problem in the middle east. For thousands of years, there was some kind of war.

1. Cure diseases for sure most important 2. Truly actually automate all button clicking with work 3. Solve energy needs 4. Help humans understand their origins to find peace between religions

I am fascinated how AI can imagine API response shapes.

Rule for X/Twitter. See big accounts you like. Who seem to be used by the person you admire. Follow those. Make sure they are a majority.

@JamesonCamp Miswrote, I'm programming voice agents as work. Running cold traffic to other offers. So I get better at that.

@viktor_techness Awesome, and you're running profitable on cold traffic to the company that does voice agents?

Every business runs on two things. Thinking, and button-clicking. Agents just made the button-clicking free Here are 9 opportunities I'd put real money on. 1. Outreach agents that run every channel at once My email agent runs itself, but only on one channel. The real money is one agent coordinating email, LinkedIn and Twitter at once, and whoever builds it owns outreach. Outreach orchestration layer really. 2. Outreach agents that improve themselves Mine already learns which replies convert and scrapes competitors for contacts I never had. Agents that sharpen themselves while you sleep weren't possible a year ago. Aggregated anon outreach data can make this really work. 3. Buying small internet businesses and running them part-time I used to help people buy sub-$5M internet businesses, and the deals always stalled on OpEx. Agents killed that cost, so one person plus a stack of agents now runs what needed 6 employees. 4. Agents that find good businesses before they're listed Almost everything publicly for sale is a bad business, and the good ones sell in days. An agent that sources quietly profitable businesses and reaches the owner first is worth a fortune, and it's the one on this list I'm building right now. (working on this myself) 5. Agentic due diligence on acquisitions Diligence on an internet business is hours of reading backlink profiles, hunting toxic links and verifying traffic. An agent does it in minutes, and that changes the speed of every acquisition. 6. The infrastructure agents can't work without. Everyone wants agents with their own inboxes and credit cards. Nobody mentions a fresh inbox gets flagged the second it sends, which cost me weeks. Pre-warmed, agent-ready accounts sold as infrastructure is a business waiting to be built. 7. The mid-market need education Off-the-shelf AI already works for small businesses, but mid-market is a slower, more complex sale and most of them aren't bought in yet. They've been sold tools all year. What they want is someone to teach them. 8. Mid-tier ghostwriting is going to zero. My newsletter and Twitter agents beat any ghostwriter I could hire, but only because I'm the expert behind them. Top tier custom agents win here. 9. Training agents for one specific domain Anyone can spin up a generic ghostwriter or SDR agent, but almost nobody can make it good without knowing the subculture and how people actually talk. Whoever packages that expertise into the agent owns the category. Every one of these is the same shift. The work got cheap. Judgment is the whole game now. Forget enterprise and B2B for a sec. I think consumer and SMB are wide open, and organic content only gets bigger from here. People go back to the one thing they were ever great at. Being creative.

@JamesonCamp Cold ads and driving traffic. To pay the bills, for a company that does voice agents (so I stay on top of AI).

@viktor_techness What are you working on now?
