    Because it’s Jack Dorsey and that’s it. I agree it’s not novel or interesting. It’s frustrating for me particularly because I want some kind of widely decentralized network but som…

    This has been a story, age as old as time. How many times have startup founders been told "you're a feature" or "Google/Meta/etc can copy you so fast". Operators just need to stay …

    It sounds like your concept of “minor” may be calibrated too high. Kids need to test boundaries to learn limits. They need to learn limits to live safely while understanding their …

    Moreso they are interested in the phone because we are but I don't necessary sense frustration. Especially if you are "attentive" in that you are willing to context switch back to …

    Using the Claude "superpowers" skill will downgrade models automatically, using Sonnet and Haiku for trivial things.

    Anthropic just reset all limits, including Fable. Capitalism is spoiling us.

    I just recently had Claude leverage a community ran Monarch MCP which has essentially all of my transactions/wealth information. Had it create a bunch of forecasting tools and rout…
