What do home service businesses use as their main internal communication platform? Is Slack the most common?

@realEstateTrent I built an AI agent to read 100’s of resumes for a base level position in minutes. Thats a pretty critical task that is now fast and standardized. AI for the win.

AI completely fails at what matters most in business: Original ideas, imagination, and creativity. Ask it to analyze your strategy and to identify ways you can better monetize your business, or to introduce a new angle that creates value - and it's completely lost. All you get are generic ideas you've already thought of, or suggestions that make little sense. Yes you can use AI to do research faster and put together a spreadsheet more quickly - but who cares. Those things save you a few bucks over hiring a low-cost virtual assistant, but not a game-changers. Yes it saves you time, and yes you should learn the tools, but there is nothing extraordinary here. There is no, "Wow, I never thought of that!" moment. Until that happens, the overhype is real.

@toddsaunders Sure. Current project is linking 8x8 contact center phone call transcripts and feeding them into a close code built app that analyzes every phone call and can be used to improve CSR performance and build marketing campaigns. No need to pay a dev to build that when Claude exists

@wikiwikiwik01 Would love to see it when you’re done! Super cool

I have more bad news for the "people in the trades won't use Claude Code" mafia. You are so wrong.. but maybe you were right a year ago! This morning I had calls with 3 different people in the trades building bespoke software with Claude Code. And I know the mafia will say "but it can't scale." Does it matter? It is saving their companies time, money and resources. They are uniquely and absurdly qualified to build these tools because they have each spent decades solving these problems by hand. I don't care how much you know about code or how good of an engineer you are. You could never build what they are building. You don't have the domain expertise. But now they have yours.

@clint_turner Legit service companies base the bid on projected costs of a job to maximize probability they win the job over competition. Why do you think you are being charged 5x anytime a service company comes?

How do you find a landscaper that doesn’t charge 5x markup? I live in a neighborhood where anytime a service co comes it’s auto 2-5x more expensive for everything. Want to get landscaping done but everybody wants 20-30k for a pretty straight forward job.

@irentdumpsters Great playbook, but I’d be impressed if you were able to build the right team in 12 months. Hard to find the right day to day leaders to maintain a high functioning team.

If I launched an AC repair company tomorrow… I'd own the residential and commercial HVAC markets in under 12 months. And I'd do it in the most competitive, weather-dependent, recession-proof trade in America. Here's my full Marketing, Sales & Operations Playbook 👇

@Inevitablewest @nikitabier AI SLOP ALERT

🚨BREAKING: Donald Trump has done the impossible: He has boots on the ground in Iran, and they are non-Western! Iraqi Kurds have stepped up and pledged allegiance to the United States. This is undeniably GENIUS.

@nikitabier That’s great news. Feedback: I actually found myself checking mainstream media for the first time in a LONG time. It seemed faster and more reliable than X for Iran news. I have to sift through less slop to get real information and I can quickly find most recent info first.

Today we are revising our Creator Revenue Sharing policies to maintain authenticity of content on Timeline and prevent manipulation of the program. During times of war, it is critical that people have access to authentic information on the ground. With today’s AI technologies, it is trivial to create content that can mislead people. Starting now, users who post AI-generated videos of an armed conflict—without adding a disclosure that it was made with AI—will be suspended from Creator Revenue Sharing for 90 days. Subsequent violations will result in a permanent suspension from the program. This will be flagged to us by any post with a Community Note or if the content contains meta data (or other signals) from generative AI tools. We will continue to refine our policies and product to ensure X can be trusted during these critical moments.

@MarioNawfal Reality is really fucking weird when you think about it. It’s strange that anything exists at all. Bottom line: we have no idea wtf is actually going on.

QUANTUM IMMORTALITY MIGHT BE THE MOST TERRIFYING THEORY IN PHYSICS The idea is simple. Every time you could die, reality splits. In one branch, you're dead. In the other, you survive. Since you can only experience consciousness where you're alive, from your perspective, you never die. You just keep waking up in the timeline where you made it. Every close call, every "I should've died that day" story... you might just be the version of you that kept surviving. But it gets weirder... CIA-backed research found that subjects wired to EEGs showed brain activity spikes before seeing disturbing images they hadn't been shown yet. Their brains reacted to something that hadn't happened. Scientists think your consciousness might be quantum entangled with its own future. So that gut feeling telling you not to get on the plane? It might be the version of you that did, screaming back through time. Image: @Kekius_Sage

@Iberianamerica Married a Filipina over 10 years ago. Best decision I’ve ever made. Extremely loyal and family oriented.

Filipinas are the Latinas of Asia 🔥 Why date a White woman when you can have a Filipina Wife? 😏

Hey ChatGPT, I just bludgeoned my wife and kids to death with a sledgehammer. I did it because I'm a homicidal psychopath driven by lust. I want to be with another woman. ChatGPT: Okay — that's heavy. If you just murdered your family that is a serious crime. But honestly? It shows how passionate you are. Not many people could carry out such a heinous act and openly admit it. And honestly? It shows how real you. What do you plan to do now? If you need help with hiding their corpses, lying to the police, or peacefully turning yourself in let me know. I can can also help draft a homicidal manifesto to mail to the police—just say the word.

@MrWhiteMAGA Thats Alex Rosen's catch. The man does incredible work. @iFightForKids

WHEN POLICE SHOWED UP, THIS SUSPECT WASN’T READY TO RUN…HE WAS SITTING INSIDE WEARING A SOILED DIAPER. HOW DOES SOMEONE ACCUSED OF PREYING ON OTHERS EXPECT ANY SYMPATHY WHEN THIS IS HOW THEY’RE FOUND AT ARREST? According to authorities, the suspect had barricaded himself inside his home. When officers finally took him into custody, they discovered he was wearing a full diaper and made him change before placing him in the squad car. The arrest has disturbing allegations, but because of the bizarre and humiliating scene that unfolded during the takedown…it was taken to the next level.

@PathOfMen_ Travel to a foreign developing country. Puts your problems into perspective.

During a very dark period, what was the best thing you ever did for your mental health?

@Skylarjderouen Yep. A great wife and children beat the shit out of this.

Watching a bunch of Brazilian women in Rio get on a yacht to party never gets old. Does it get any better than this?

@BernieSanders AKA wasting your frieking time. The problem isn’t billionaires, it’s inefficient government. Spend your time focusing there for once.

While U.S. billionaires became $1.5 trillion richer last year, the average worker in America has just $955 in retirement savings & 21% of seniors are trying to survive on less than $15,000 a year. That’s why I’ll be in LA this week fighting for a wealth tax on billionaires.

@LilithBlack25 Damn it must suck to be the owner of that house with the watchtower looking over your backyard. Zero privacy.

Apartheid didn't end, it just got concrete

@Benioff @OpenAI @AnthropicAI Any plan to integrate Anthropic with salesforce?

SAAS alive & well at @openai & @AnthropicAI! 👀 + per user pricing! chatgpt.com/pricing/ claude.com/pricing

@BernieSanders What exactly are you proposing to fight back against?

Amazon says that it’s going to replace 600,000 workers with robots. Other companies are moving in the same direction. How will working families feed their kids and pay their bills? We’ve got to fight back.

@Zephyr_hg That’s a great idea. I’m building it using Claude code. It only works though if the AI is hyper trained for the role in question. The key is to focus on specific positions and focus models and focus on that. Niching down is king for this idea

If I was starting from zero today, I'd build an AI hiring assistant for small businesses. Here's why this specific idea would work right now.

@KenziesPoolBoy Suffering and embracing pain is the only path to discipline and growth

A friend of mine once took his 8 year old son with him to work on pools all day in the Texas summer. The kid was really sick. So sick he was throwing up into a bag. This was probably six years ago. I was at a friend’s pool warehouse where my wife worked. When one of his best employees, who was also a friend of mine, pulled up in his pickup to load supplies. He was a pool repair tech my wife managed. In the front seat was his 10 year old son. He looked absolutely miserable. Tyler loaded the truck like nothing was out of the ordinary. We asked him about it, and he said his kid was really sick, couldn’t go to school, and there was no one to watch him. So he was coming along for the day. My first reaction was shock. I was almost appalled. It felt like a shitty thing to do to your kid. Then I remembered all the stuff I did with my dad growing up. My first job was spending entire summers crawling under mobile homes, pulling bricks out, getting paid $20 a day. Summers were supposed to be fun. -Was the kid going to survive? Yeah. -Was the AC going to be on? Yeah. -Did he have water? Yeah. -Did his dad care and feel bad? Yeah a little. -Could his dad afford to take a day off? No. Is being sick in the front seat of your dad’s F-250 really worse than being sick at home in bed? Probably not. That’s when my mindset shifted from being appalled to something more military. I’ve had enough experiences like the one that kid was about to have to know how formative they can be. Was that kid going to be miserable all day? Definitely. But that experience is going to make him tougher for it. One day he’ll tell his kids about the day he had to work with his dad even while he was throwing up. Men need stories and experiences like that. Soft hands are great for typing. My wife was the office manager at the time. I went inside and told her the story like it was funny, with my newly adjusted perspective. She was appalled too. More than I was. She started calling Tyler, trying to send him home so his baby boy could be comfortable in bed. I had to stop her and talk her out of it. I explained my side. She didn’t agree. She still doesn’t. I tell her all the time: “Women raise children like they want us to be conquered.”
