THIS IS HOW THE QUANTUM COMPUTERS WORK

[Alex Acquarone 🇮🇹 🇺🇸 @AMAcquarone]

So true...

[David Wells @DavidWells]

The AI ponzi scheme goes like this:

Everyone is generating all these long ass docs and then passing them off for others to read

Then the person receiving is like, wtf this is way too long, and hands that into an AI to read and summarize

Then they are generating a long ass response back

and this cycle goes like that forever. and we call this work now 😅

The token lords watch this from their towers nodding and grinning.

[Mr PitBull Stories @MrPitbull07]

In 2004, Dave Dahl walked out of prison carrying everything he owned in a plastic bag.

He was 41 years old.

And most people had already decided his life was over.

Dave had spent 15 years behind bars across four separate prison sentences.

Drug possession.
Burglary.
Assault.
Armed robbery.

His criminal record was longer than most job applications.

Nobody wanted to hire him.

The only person willing to give him another chance was his brother, Glenn.

Glenn ran the family bakery in Oregon — a small business their father had started years earlier.

He offered Dave a simple job:

Show up at 4 a.m.
Mix dough.
Clean pans.
Work hard.

Nothing glamorous.

But inside that bakery, something changed.

For the first time in decades, Dave had structure, purpose, and somewhere to put all the energy that used to destroy his life.

Then he started experimenting with the bread.

Organic whole grains.
Seeds.
Dense textures.
Real ingredients.

This wasn’t soft processed supermarket bread.

It was bread made by somebody trying to rebuild himself from scratch.

In 2005, Dave pitched his brother on a bold idea:

A new brand called “Dave’s Killer Bread.”

Then he made an even crazier suggestion.

He wanted his prison mugshot printed on every loaf.

Front and center.

He wanted customers to know exactly who he was.

The prison time.
The addiction.
The mistakes.
The second chance.

Everything.

Industry experts thought it was a disaster waiting to happen.

“No one wants to buy bread from a felon.”

They were completely wrong.

People didn’t connect with the brand despite Dave’s past.

They connected because of it.

For once, someone wasn’t pretending to be perfect.

They saw a man who had wrecked his life, owned every mistake publicly, and rebuilt himself through hard work instead of excuses.

And the bread itself was genuinely great.

Within a year, Dave’s Killer Bread became the top-selling organic bread in Portland.

Within a few years, it was being sold across America.

Then in 2015, Flowers Foods bought the company for $275 million.

A man nobody would hire had built a quarter-billion-dollar business.

But Dave didn’t stop there.

He created a hiring program focused on giving former inmates a second chance.

Hundreds of people coming out of prison got jobs through the bakery — people most companies wouldn’t even interview.

Dave knew exactly what it felt like to be seen as disposable.

So he built a company that treated people differently.

But success didn’t magically erase all his struggles.

For years, Dave had been living with undiagnosed bipolar disorder.

The structure of the bakery helped keep his life stable.

When he stepped away from the business, things unraveled.

He went through a severe mental health crisis.

And once again, he chose honesty instead of hiding.

He spoke publicly about his bipolar disorder the same way he spoke about prison:

Openly.
Without shame.

Because he believed your worst moments shouldn’t define your entire life.

Today, Dave’s Killer Bread is still sold across the country.

His tattooed face is still on every package.

And somewhere right now, someone is walking out of prison with a plastic bag in their hand believing the world has already given up on them.

Dave Dahl’s story exists to remind them:

Your past is not your destiny.

It’s just where your story began.

[Curiosity @CuriosityonX]

What the Night Sky on Mars may look like.

Imagine standing here.

Pitch black. Dead quiet. Not a single bulb, satellite, or smudge of pollution between you and the universe.

Just blood-red dunes rolling out forever.

And overhead? A galaxy so thick with stars it doesn't even look real.

Stillness you can feel in your bones. A sky cracked wide open. Something almost too big for human eyes.

No person has ever stood there to see it.

Not yet.

How to climb all 4 layers of Claude in one weekend:

(even if you just signed up yesterday)

✦ Level 1: Claude Chat (Saturday morning)

Go to claude .com/download. Install the app.
Pay the $20. Select Opus 4.6 + Extended Thinking.
Connect Slack, Drive, Notion through Connectors.
Stop writing long prompts. Prompt this instead:
"I want to [TASK] for [SUCCESS CRITERIA]. Use AskUserQuestion before you start."

Most people stay here forever.
You're leaving 90% of Claude untouched.
Claude Basics: https://t.co/jw2qdIbLxJ.

——

✦ Level 2: Claude Cowork (Saturday afternoon)

Go to 'Cowork'. Create a folder "Claude-Cowork."
4 subfolders. About me, template, project & outputs
Create about-me .md: what you do, how you do.
Create anti-ai-style .md: words you'd never say.
Set Global Instructions (Settings → Cowork → Edit):
"Always read my files first, never edit my originals, deliver everything to CLAUDE OUTPUTS."

You just killed prompting.
From now on, your prompt is 2 lines + your folder.
Move on to Cowork: https://t.co/uWTpOI3oyE

——

✦ Level 3: Skills + Plugins (Sunday morning)

Open Cowork. Type: "Use the skill-creator to help me build a skill for [your most repeated task]."
Claude interviews you. Answer and be specific.
It generates a SKILL .md. Test it: "When would you use this skill?" If the description is vague, fix it.
Upload: Settings → Capabilities → Skills → Upload.
Now it fires automatically. No slash command.
Install Plugins: Cowork > Customize > Browse plugin

Skills with about-me .md. Skill handles the process.
Voice file handles tone. Two layers simultaneously.
Set up Claude Skills: https://t.co/SAErc3JcLL

——

✦ Level 4: Code + Computer (Sunday afternoon)

Click the Code tab. Create a folder. Connect GitHub
(free account → Settings → Connectors).
Prompt: "Create a GitHub repo named [project]. Code everything. Don't ask for permissions."
Download VS Code. Install the Claude extension.
Turn on "Skip Permissions" to go 100x faster.
After your session, paste this: "Create a CLAUDE .md file with everything you learned about this project." Now Claude remembers your fonts, colors, and structure forever.
Claude code guide: https://t.co/UgE9xBXnm6

Claude Computer: Settings → Desktop app → turn on Browser use + Computer use.
Connect your phone with Dispatch. Text a task.
Schedule a recurring task: left sidebar → Scheduled → write the prompt → pick the frequency.
Claude Computer: https://t.co/ZfjFaaMknc

This is where you stop working inside Claude.
Claude starts working on your computer.

——

Saturday, you were prompting like it's ChatGPT.
Sunday, Claude is running your screen, building your website, & sending you text updates.

That's all 4 layers. In one weekend.
