Thanks for mentioning this. I installed claude-mem today and it’s already come in handy. Pretty neat how it can go get individual prompts and replies from previous sessions without consuming a lot of tokens. And I finally have some visibility into what my subagents are doing thanks for the real time feed web dashboard.

I’ve been fine tuning mine pretty often. Do you have any Claude.md files you can share as good examples? Especially with opus 4.5.

And thank you for your work!! I focus all of my energy on helping families stay safe online, I make educational content and educational products (including software). Claude Code has helped me amplify my efforts and I’m able to help many more families and children as a result. The downstream effects of your work on Claude Code are awesome! I’ve been in IT since 1995 and your tools are the most powerful tools I’ve ever used, by far.

In my experience, Claude will criticize others more than it will criticize itself. Seems similar to how LLMs in general tend to say yes to things or call anything a good idea by default.

I find it to be an entertaining reflection of the cultural nuances embedded into training data and reinforcement learning processes.

There is a way. Don’t give them any of your money.

Do you do any exercise or strength training?

So nostalgic to watch!

I had a very similar job at a retail store called PC Club in Santa Ana, CA from 1995-1997. It was my first job, started when I was 14. I had a blue PC Club polo shirt and a pretty rad pony tail.

I was also a purely technical “sales” guy, just like the guy in the video. Could talk specs all day and repeat anecdotes about the differences between different vendors’ components. Had the worst sales numbers in the company because I only sold people the minimum of what they needed and did not understand the concept of revenue or profit margins. My adult colleagues were sometimes making 10X more than I was in commissions.

It was fun being in a small computer store during the era when the 486DX was hot stuff, SIMM RAM was transitioning to DIMM RAM. The Pentium was coming on the scene. Burning MP3s to CDs was popular. We played music at the store all day via a demo PC that was running WinAmp. Our tech support guys in the back were real techies. US Robotics 14.4 modems were cutting edge.

Luckily for me I found my way to a technical IT role when a PC Club customer hired me to help him with his local IT business. And then came full circle 14 years later to find out the hard way how important sales are when I started my first company.

Thanks for sharing this video.

The original HomePod is cool and sounds good, but it being discontinued forced me to look elsewhere for a similar product when I wanted to kit out another room in my house.

I ended up buying a Sonos Move and it’s so much better. Makes the original HomePod sound muddy. Also platform-agnostic. $100 more than HomePod, but it’s portable, so I find it a good value.

Too bad cause otherwise I’d be excited about this new HomePod. I’m a Sonos convert now.

What outcome(s) are you trying to achieve? Subjective or objective?

Thank you for sharing this. I’ve been looking for useful dosing data for years and haven’t found any.

Do you have any references for the dosing data that you’ve mentioned?

Experience trumps school, especially for running a business. Start as small of a business as you can, so you can gain experience. You’ll learn more about the real world than any school can teach you.

The Starting Strength Coach certification is a good one to look for.

The author of the blog post is a senior PR (titled government relations, but basically same thing) guy, so I think your assessment is fair.

IMO - Every word of that blog post should be taken as code for "this should keep the US government off our back for a while and probably help us win contracts."

Gross of other people to tell you who you are. I hope you swiftly told them to F off.

So far I have no feedback other than how smooth it was to use. I had a subscription plan already in place. Chose option to create link. Put the link on my website where I used to have a 3rd party’s stripe front-end. Now it’s direct and clean and supports faster payment mechanisms. Awesome!
