🚨 Anthropic just showed a 27-minute workshop on how to actually do prompts for Claude.
Taught by the people who built it.
Free. No registration. No paywall.
I've seen $300 courses that don't cover what they teach in the first 8 minutes.
Watch it and bookmark it now.
Leonardo da Vinci invented this self-supporting bridge over 500 years ago and it holds itself together without nails or ropes.
Much can be accomplished with geometry and physics alone. Sometimes the smartest solution is also the simplest.
@mariashriver@mariashriver thank you for your post @realDonaldTrump has nothing solid to argue with, he resorts to bullying in the most immature way, he hasn’t a leg to stand on, it’s vile, brutish mansplaining he is pathetic. Why do women vote for him? #misogyny
I'm so jaded that it takes a lot to move me to tears, but to hear this brave young woman who took a principled approach to break out of the asphyxiating confines of her echo chamber and seek the truth despite the cost, got me today.
Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan.
Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.
STANDARDS ARE NOT SUBJECTIVE
Most people wait for a crisis to find discipline.
That is too late.
Discipline is built in the small moments. If you cannot stay consistent when it is easy, you will not hold up when it gets hard.
The basics matter.
Miss them, and everything else starts to break.
William H. McRaven understood this. His career in Special Operations was built on the fundamentals long before the mission that took out bin Laden.
He learned it in training.
Do the small things right. Square your corners. Maintain your standard.
That is where trust is built.
If you cannot handle the basics, you cannot handle complexity. The foundation has to be solid before anything else works.
This applies everywhere. Your team will never exceed the standards you set for yourself. Not in private. Not when no one is watching.
I have seen people fail under pressure because they ignored the basics. They thought they were above it.
They were not.
The way you do one thing is the way you do everything.
If you cannot hold yourself to a standard in the quiet moments, you cannot lead when it matters.
Set the standard.
Then live it.
When you woke up this morning, your internet worked. You scrolled, you searched, you shared. But 90 million Iranians woke up — again — to total darkness. Their government has now imposed the longest nationwide internet blackout ever recorded in any country. Almost 40 consecutive days.
That should alarm every one of us. Iran’s information blackout is a weapon against its own people. When governments can flip a switch and immediately disappear 90 million people from the internet, the rest of us lose our eyes and ears too.
