@Teknium @tonbistudio I'm new to Hermes and I keep seeing you retweet or quote tweet all of this awesome content and I'm always left wondering if it's applicable to the web app too? Is it?

@flowfaust @levelsio He's the King of pSEO

@levelsio Have you ever tried looking seriously into SEO? You seem to have a lot of data to use to create the best content out there but traffic on your sites is still 99% coming from social

I'm pretty bad at a lot of things but one thing I've (accidentally or not) have been pretty good at is being early at trends A lot of these trends are in my head in some way and I wanted to visualize those on a chart. So I built another dynamic blog post (on my new vibecoded blog platform that lets me do these kinds of pages) with this chart above. The first disclaimer of course is this is completely subjective and essentially a chart based brain dump. And the second disclaimer is I don't think I'm right, it's just my own beliefs visualized! I'll keep updating the chart You can select different trends on the legend or by clicking on a line, and you can also go fullscreen! Also you can select [x] indexed view which is pretty cool too :D Let me know what I should add or change! levels.io/the-everything…

@thesamparr That video thumbnail feels like an IQ test. If I click it, does that make me a dummy? Or if I scroll past without clicking...is THAT what makes me the dummy? That's a good one!

Here's the full thing: youtube.com/watch?v=N9UpuF…

On My First Million, Dharmesh Shah told me about the line that got him to $200k a year in the early 90s during his first company before HubSpot. His boss pushed back on the raises: "Do you really think you're going to find that many companies that will pay you $200,000 a year?" Dharmesh said: "I really don't need to find that many. I just need to find one. And I think there's one out there." He said the same math applies to dating, and to making one business work: "making one business work will do enough to change your life."

@ImNotAV1rus @ClaudeDevs I'm on the Plus plan, updated Codex and Sol isn't there. Do I need to upgrade that plan too?? Lol

@Murph_2 @ClaudeDevs Yeah, you'd think they're doing it on purpose.... I'm going to try out GPT 5.6 Sol rn to see how it goes because I'm done with Anthropic

We've reset 5-hour and weekly rate limits for all users.

@sama I updated my Codex app and don't see SOL. Is it excluded from the Plus plan???

check this out! you can get some amazing things done. codex is the core of our new work product and what makes it so good. codex is not going anywhere.

@ImNotAV1rus @ClaudeDevs I upgraded my plan this morning to reset the weekly rate limit...now I'm out $150. Haha. These rate limit games are off-putting.

@ClaudeDevs The timing is totally random. Right, Anthropic?

@RobHoffman_ @starter_story I was wondering where she went. Haven't seen her in any of your recent content.

@Murph_2 @starter_story we just thought Lara would be the best out of the 4 of us (Lara, Jake, Cam, and myself) to do the episode since she has a big audience ahah

She realized founders were spending all day trying to write content and thought, “I can automate this.” Built the initial version as a simple Chrome extension to store high-performing “swipe files.” She validated the demand by building a waitlist before the product even launched. She grew the app to $30K MRR in just 4 days using only organic LinkedIn posts and a 10-email nurture sequence. Now the App has over 930 active subscribers and is making $60K+ MRR in less than two months. Her 4-3-2-1 content framework is simple, strategic, and applicable to any SaaS launch.

Running this as we speak...some interesting insights on working patterns and some where Fable isn't holding back. Interested to see the final results. "Your timestamps say the day runs 7am to 12:30am. - Personal projects get the 7–9am block before work (287 prompts) - Work gets the middle - Then after a break at dinner you come back for a second shift, 10pm to 12:30am. That is 89% personal work — and 11pm is the single most active hour of your entire life right now (220 prompts, more than any daytime hour). There's a 2:51am session in the record. Your monthly volume doubled twice: - 492 prompts in May - 983 in June - July pacing ~1,100." "The receipts say one of your thirteen projects is a business and twelve are experiments. If your hours next week obeyed those receipts, what would you cut, and what stops you from cutting it now?" Ouch.

@matthewmillerai I'm sure this will happen now that I've upgraded my plan to rest the limits.

PREDICTION: Anthropic resets weekly limits today. Why? GPT 5.6 launches today. They are SO predictable. Every time a competitor drops a frontier model, the goodwill faucet suddenly turns on. Screenshot this. Check back tonight. Today is going to be HUGE.

While this is really exciting, it only focus on what's positive to the company and its operations and doesn't consider the impact on the workforce. What you describe will lead to a future state where you aren't filling vacant roles or opening reqs you otherwise would have. Are you considering an initiative to re-skill & redeploy employees whose current day-to-day tasks are impacted by these new efficiencies? And if yes, what does that look like and how are you managing that? This is a great start for a blueprint an organization should follow for systematic AI workforce transformation...but still needs work on defining how to manage the humans impacted by these efficiencies.

Agentic AI adoption is on fire at @Uber, and it's changing the way we build, not just in engineering, but across the entire company. Today, 99% of our engineers use AI tools. More than 70% of pull requests are attributed to local or cloud agents. And our engineers have built 2,500+ agent skills across the software development lifecycle. Those numbers are exciting, but they led us to a much bigger question: How do we bring agentic AI beyond engineering? Finance. Legal. Operations. Marketing. Customer Support. HR. Procurement. These functions run on complex workflows that are often manual, highly nuanced, and spread across dozens of systems. You can't automate them effectively by looking at process diagrams or documentation. You have to understand how the work actually gets done. So we created something called Agentic Pods. The idea is simple. We handpicked ~30 of our most AI-proficient engineers (people with deep knowledge of Uber's systems) and paired each of them with a domain expert from a business function. Then we gave every pod just two weeks. • Days 1 – 2: Shadow the expert. Observe every step. Document workflows. Ask questions. Build intuition. • Day 3: Prioritize opportunities based on scale, repetition, business impact, and data availability. • Days 4 – 5: Build a working agent alongside the person doing the job. • Days 6 – 9: Validate with several others performing the same work. Does it generalize? Does it actually make their job better? • Day 10: Ship. In just the past two months, we've run 16 Agentic Pods across 16 different business functions. • Capital allocation across 150 cities: 15 hours → 30 minutes. • Financial pacing reports: 2 days → 10 minutes. • Marketing web quality assurance: 2 weeks → 50 minutes. • Support workflow creation: 9,000 manual workflows → self-service automation. The productivity gains are impressive, but what surprised us most wasn't the speed. • It was how quickly engineers embedded in unfamiliar domains uncovered opportunities that had been hiding in plain sight. • The biggest wins rarely come from automating one task. They come from rethinking an entire workflow. Once you redesign the workflow around AI, you often eliminate handoffs, remove unnecessary approvals, replace legacy tooling, reduce vendor spend, and dramatically accelerate decision-making. • The workflow becomes the unit of automation - not the individual task. • The most impactful agent skills cut across teams, orgs, functions, tools, and systems. The biggest lesson? The best AI opportunities are rarely visible from the outside. You discover them by sitting next to the people doing the work, understanding every friction point, and building with them, not for them. We're now forming a dedicated team to scale this further and go deeper. They'll deeply understand the work, redesign it from the ground up, and use AI to fundamentally change how the business operates. It's exciting times!

I agree with Jayden here. I've been using AI assisted coding since mid-2024 with Cline and Sonett 3.5...so, I've lived through some real issues. Two of many examples: 1. One of my apps is an AI image generation app where someone can upload an image of their pet, create fun AI generations , add them to a product in the app and order that product. I use Printful for the products in the app. I have a "Customize" option where the user can see the generated image on the product they want to buy. I migrated to the V2 of Printful's API and the previously working process broke. I fed previous frontier models all the dev docs I could find on the new API, and no matter how hard they tried, no Opus level model could fix it. I did the same with Fable and in one working session it was fixed...and not only did it fix it, Fable recommended additional UX improvements based on what we're doing without me even asking. Magic. 2. A different app I have is a way for people to manage home renovations + some AI room generation/product placements in-room, etc. The marketing website has some pSEO pages for "average cost of..." for specific renovations in different US states, cities and towns. There are a lot of pages and calculators. I had been getting some traffic, but GSC impressions were flat. I downloaded GSC data for the last 6 months. Fed that to Fable, then started having a conversation about impressions, etc. It went into the code where the pages were and found a "1 line bug" that orphaned 1.3K pages. This 1 line bug, and the others it found were created by a previous Anthropic frontier model...Fable's message: "TLDR: This wasn't content quality and it wasn't one blocker. Five compounding defects starved the site of crawl trust, and the biggest one is a one-line PHP bug that orphaned the entire 1,378-page city tier" After those fixes, I can already see impressions improving and pages being indexed. For my use cases, and the way I interact with Claude Code, Fable is far and away better than any other model I've ever worked with.

@natiakourdadze For example it found lots of issues and bugs in code written by previous fronttier models. Why wasnt it great for you?

Am I the only one who can't see the difference between Fable 5 and the previous models? Fable 5 is all hype!

@levelsio Oof... I miss out.. I gooned my weekly limit and it resets 7/11 at 1pm. Permanent middle class.

ONE MORE WEEK TO ESCAPE THE UNDERCLASS

@TomBrady Tom... please stop talking like that. Nothing will top 28-3.

Yeah so that might top 28-3 🤯

@gregisenberg PPSA (if that's a thing)... would be nice if they also reset the weekly limits for goons like me who maxed them out in anticipation of Fable leaving today... awful timing... limits reset 1 day before it goes away...oof

PSA: keep building out your dreams

@prilosac @LuisDCSilva @levelsio People care that much about a Resy account?? Why? And I'd like to see where in the Amex ToS it says that if your Resy account is banned, they can terminate your CC...no way, not buying it. Click bait.

@LuisDCSilva @levelsio It is forbidden, as far as I know. Someone's gotten banned for it before. You all act like I just made something up to be scared of lol

🍌 Got so lazy to order stuff on UberEats that I asked Claude Code to do it Very easy, it just installs Playwright and then you login once to UberEats on web (the iOS app is also just a web wrapper, nice) Then you can just say "order bananas" and it does it!

Nice work on the bananas, fun use case for that! This is how I've automated testing. I have Claude use a testing skill (that it created) to recon all functionality on a page/module, write test cases to a json file, then execute the test case and give me a report of the results. Each time I recon and test a different part of my app, it builds the json file up and I have a regression suite that I can run at any time.

@claudeai Please reset the weekly limits. It's not nice to set that deadline, then switch hours before. Weekly limit reset is the right thing to do here.

We're extending access to Claude Fable 5 on all paid plans through July 12.

@APompliano Johnny Cash playing on the speakers at the Whitehouse??

I was in the Oval Office today for the launch of the Invest America / Trump Accounts initiative. Here are my takeaways: 1. This program may have the most bipartisan support of anything I have ever seen. Everyone, regardless of political party, understands the power of giving young children money to compound over decades. 2. While the government and current administration should get immense credit for the program, there were many private citizens like @altcap, @MichaelDell and others that persistently pursued the idea until it became reality. They quite literally changed the course of millions of lives with this idea. 3. It will quickly become a game of status for people to donate to fund the accounts. The Dell Family gave over $6 billion. SpaceX’s @Gwynne_Shotwell gave more than $300 million today. Brad Gerstner is adopting every child in the state of Indiana to give money to their accounts. The list goes on and on already… 4. Companies will begin making contributions core parts of their perk packages for employees. Corporations like Bank of America, JPMorgan, Robinhood and others have already announced these efforts. 5. The Oval Office is surprisingly small in size, but the historical significance of the room is palpable the second you walk into it. The President called it “the most important room in the world” today and I walked away thinking that was accurate. 6. This idea of Invest America accounts has become a magnet for the world’s most successful people. I saw Larry Fink, David Solomon, Lisa Su, and many other Fortune 500 CEOs in attendance for the Rose Garden lunch. It is hard for an idea to fail when this many people are behind it. 7. The Rose Garden was very nicely done. I had been to the White House before, but never to the Oval Office or the Rose Garden. Both seemed elevated compared to the rest of the White House and surrounding buildings. It sounds like the new ballroom will also be a modern structure that mirrors this elevated approach. 8. The staff and admin team in the White House are generous and genuine. Each person was kind, gracious, and seemed to be at the top of their game. Sometimes you go to places and are disappointed with the let down from your expectations, but this was not the case with the White House team. All professionals doing their job. 9. The media loves Trump way more than they let on publicly. Many of the mainstream hosts and anchors were joking around with him like it is one big club, while simultaneously laughing at his jokes and being much more friendly than I expected. He seems to be good for their business, so it makes sense why the public narrative and private interactions don’t appear to match. 10. I never thought I would see a day where @NYSE and @Nasdaq collaborated on an event like this, including the ringing of both bells by one person at the same time. I guess anything is possible if kids are involved. Overall, this was an awesome experience. I know some people like this administration and some people don’t. I learned from @kevinolearytv to focus on policies, not politicians. And the Invest America accounts are objectively a great idea that will hopefully spread like wildfire in the years to come.

I'm pretty bad about documenting the projects I'm tinkering with. I haven't touched thesolarprospector.com in months...but decided to kick the tires on it again. Solar prospecting usually relies on needing an address first. Reps browse a map, write down addresses, look up county tax data to find the owner, and guess if the roof is a good candidate. The goal is to eliminate that overhead by inverting the pipeline & making simple for a Solar company to find and reach out to commercial property owners. Guilty of going way past MVP before marketing, but some features right now: > Scans an entire zip code, auto-filters out residential & properties w/unsuitable roofs > CRM w/every qualified property across monitored locations > Generates an analysis report, including tariff/rate info, producing enhanced financial analysis > Direct mail - click a button, send a custom proposal to the property owner A lot more in the works I'll share along the way. This back in "test" mode across the board while I work out a few kinks...but wanted to re-introduce the project + start to post updates as I chip away at things. Any solar companies out there using a prospecting tools? I'd love to learn more about challenges you're having with them and how we can help solve them.
