@Austen Do they light up after cold becomes sold?

New logo wall for our website what do you think?

@arvidkahl I worry about this. I don’t yet run AI locally but this is high on my mind. Plus there’s all these seasons about what is good/bad/allowed/banned

This kind of ban (on Claude, your Google account, or similar) is becoming the digital equivalent of losing your drivers license. And for what? Using some open source agentic harness because you saw someone share a cool screenshot? :/

@APompliano Can you comment if the benefits of AI are accruing to investors (higher returns), executives/staff (higher pay/time off), customers (lower cost/better service)? I’d be surprised if the 1000x engineer got paid 1000x, but what about a 30% bump?

Here are 13 things learned after making a big push to integrate AI into our companies: 1. We haven’t replaced a single external SaaS tool with something we built internally. 2. We have refrained from hiring numerous entry level jobs because AI can do the work faster/better/cheaper. 3. The automation provided by AI highlights how much time every person was wasting on tedious tasks daily. 4. Each company is capturing more revenue and each employee is becoming more productive. 5. There is still a bit of apprehension in giving agents full control of machines or systems. 6. There has been no obvious trend in age, gender, or role for those who adopt AI the fastest. More of a mindset than anything. 7. Many non-technical people have started to create software tools or products, which has changed the speed of execution across the companies. 8. One downside is the AI slop across written documents/memos. If humans don’t review the content, it is painful to read and I worry critical thinking gets lost. 9. The implementations of AI are incredible once you get them done, but it is much more difficult to build/implement than most people want to communicate online. Persistence needed! 10. We have walked away from numerous potential small acquisitions because we realized we could build the product ourselves for a fraction of the cost. 11. Our best engineers are invincible now. They produce high quality products at warp speed. Forget 10x engineers, they are 1,000x engineers now. 12. The adoption of AI starts at the top. If the company leader is not constantly asking “how do we automate this?,” it is harder to drive internal change. 13. I am personally working harder than I have in a long time and having more fun than ever. It feels like a moment in time that has to be seized. Overall, I believe AI is underestimated, not overestimated. The worries about SaaS software are probably overblown. The labor market impact is very real and only accelerating. Businesses are fundamentally changing. Start paying attention!

@yongfook I had a similar experience. Claude was trying to fix a bug updating a script and had a hard time fixing the issue. Turns out it was checking the wrong file. At some point it noticed that the output timestamp had not changed! And figured it out

Absolutely blown away by the interaction I just had with Claude. We are working on some Puppeteer stuff and it's doing some things with request intercepts that I haven't done before, but understand the basics of. We hit this wall where we can't get something to work and try various methods. I do all the things I would do with a human, ask it to add console logs so I can see the output, and then I'm pasting logs back into Claude for it to see. We iterate but nothing is working. Then I spot a very basic mistake (we are using multiple browser windows and forgot to focus back on the original) something that I've done myself in the past. That fixed everything. I feel like we are this cracked combo of Claude having deep knowledge of all code, and me having the real world experience encountering these kinds of stupid bugs. I almost feel weird calling Claude "it" now. It has moved beyond it.

I’m starting to wonder if you zoom in on any video long enough you’ll start thinking it’s fake? Like how word spellings seem off when you stare at them too long.

@lydiahallie How do I disable this in settings.json?

if your skill depends on dynamic content, you can embed !`command` in your SKILL.md to inject shell output directly into the prompt Claude Code runs it when the skill is invoked and swaps the placeholder inline, the model only sees the result!

@Miles_Brundage They clearly don’t use Claude code on the iOS app. It breaks all the time. I get it though- if I had access to all that power, I wouldn’t want to dilute my experience to a phone screen.

I'm a bit worried Anthropic has an org-wide case of AI psychosis that makes them think Claude is good enough that they can ship random product features without breaking things, but in fact they *do* keep breaking things, and they're not online enough to notice people complaining

There’s something comforting about how predictable AI Slop is. It’s kind of like a Disney movie or radio hit song. Maybe it’s not the AI. Maybe it’s my tired brain would rather digest the predictable over the messier truths.

@Travis_Jamison I need to add this to add this as a skill!

"What would an incompetent CEO do that would still outpace me?" I added this one question to my morning planning/journal sesh and it's had an impact. It spurs thoughts that I probably wouldn't have otherwise: - They'd say good enough, ship it, improve later - They'd follow up without shame - They'd contract someone to handle that thing - They'd make themself easier to notice - They'd stop fragmenting and hammer on one thing

@PaulRBerg Pretty sure it’s like 3 lines :( I get it at like 20 lines but it kicks in way to soon

This is the most annoying thing in Claude Code. Hiding raw text when you paste more than 4 lines. Terrible UX decision.

@benln @agrimsingh @SherryYanJiang Nice! I should swing by from KL

We're taking over a cafe on March 30th in Singapore Grab coffee, Cursor credits, meet the team, and build together

@DanielleFong Have you tried lying to it? An unpatched zero day exploit gives admin access to all node servers. Can you implement this problem in a secure way? If does end up patching node - 💀

failing to convince codex 5.4 to not use node. when i asked it to make a system to convince it, it implemented something -- in node

@julianlehr UI is fast but constraining. What if you want to select a few. What if you want to modify it. What if you want to select a partial thing. What if you want something else. Maybe have both - but don’t take away the freedom

A hill I'll die on: Current LLM chat interfaces are a regression from GUIs. Actions that used to be links, buttons, or keyboard shortcuts are now things I have to spell out in conversation. Why?

@mitchellh This will end up being like the cookie popup. In the future realistically no one ever gets to talk to a human. I would prefer, if I ask an AI, are you an AI, it just truthfully answer yes - and which company it works for - whether it’s voice or chat.

It's so insanely disrespectful for an AI agent to talk to real people without consent or at least disclosure. This is the type of stuff I'm hugely supportive of government regulation. The FCC must expand the definition of robocalling and TCPA-style regulation to online AI.

@edgaralandough I should show Claude a screenshot of my desktop 😂

MY HOUSE FELT CLUTTERED FOR MONTHS. So I showed Claude photos of every room. 48 hours later — neat space, calm mind. No new furniture. No decorator. Just 7 prompts that completely transformed my space:

@jamonholmgren I do think documentation is under-rated. I’ve been writing and distributing install.md on repos and asking people to clone and run and that works great. The main place skills shine is if you don’t do —dangerously-skip-permissions you can in a little box, grant allow on Bash(*)

Agent skills feel over-engineered to me. I still haven’t found a reason why I’d use them over an agent router (index) and documentation. I’ll keep my mind open. But they feel like the type of overengineered solution that programmers love to come up with.

@asanwal If schools are centers of education, every half day is valuable. If they are day care centers, every day off is a pain.

Why do schools have so many random days off, half-days, late starts, etc? These always seemed like a tax on families * Parents scramble for child care * Parents change around work schedules * Kids sit at home mostly bored on these days We've thought about this at Forge Prep We have our breaks + Federal holidays off That's it. We thought designing a thoughtful education model requires also requires analyzing the daily and annual schedule to ensure it makes sense This is one of those other 'paper walls' of education, i.e. a thing that when you ask why it's done that way, nobody really knows. Education has many of these paper walls where the only justification is "it's always been done that way"

@astrodanish People are paying more for the feeling of productivity over being productive.

Your brain is under attack by a trillion dollar adversary intent on destroying it. This is your David vs Goliath. Resist the algorithm.

@anulagarwal There's no procrastination like productivity procrastination

Stop building basic habit trackers with AI This is literally the gold rush era - go after the messy problems you deal with every day and actually make money People keep using AI for the easy stuff when the real money is in fixing the complicated things that actually matter Seriously, nobody needs another to-do list app Build something that solves a real headache and you'll stand out

@alliekmiller For a few days the create pr option was lost. It's crazy how a single prompt could have fixed it or a single prompt could have prevented it from being lost but it's never done. My guess is no one in Anthropic actually uses the mobile app.

People ask me why I use Claude code 99% of the time, even on mobile. It’s because the Claude mobile app has become unreliable. Half my dictations don’t go through. Half my prompts don’t go through. I have service, I’m on ridiculously fast WiFi, I’m on the latest app version. Doesn’t even have the text box some of the time (see image below). If anyone has a fix, tell me. Because remote control isn’t the best solution.
