Anthropic posted the best prompting lecture I've ever seen... and deleted it two days later.
I watched the recording last night and kept pausing it. Each time I opened Claude to test what they showed.
Two Anthropic engineers showed in 24 minutes how the Claude team actually uses it.
Not tips. Not hacks. The way they actually talk to Claude. Every day. For real work.
After 3 minutes you'll want to rewrite every prompt you've ever sent.
How Ponzi Schemes Work And Why So Many Ugandans Keep Losing Their Hard-Earned Money through dubious online investments.

๐จ BREAKING: Hackers no longer need to impersonate you. AI does it for them. In 3 seconds of audio.
It is called SIM swapping. And in 2026 it has become something different entirely.
Your phone number receives your password reset codes. Your banking OTPs. Your two-factor authentication. Whoever controls your number controls your accounts.
Attackers collect your name, date of birth, and last four digits of your SSN. All available from data breaches for a few dollars on dark web markets.
Then they call your carrier pretending to be you.
AI voice cloning tools replicate your voice from 3 seconds of audio. Your voicemail greeting, a social media video, or a podcast appearance is enough. The carrier hears you. It is not you.
And with eSIM, there is no waiting for a physical card. The number transfers digitally in under 5 minutes.
Your phone shows no service.
The attackerโs device is now you.
They reset your email. Your bank. Your crypto wallet. Your iCloud. Everything tied to that number.
One arrest last year: a 19-year-old Canadian. $13 million in Bitcoin.
How to protect yourself:
Call your carrier and add a SIM lock or port freeze. It is free.
Switch from SMS-based 2FA to an authenticator app or a hardware key.
Your phone number should not be the recovery method for your email or bank. Ever.

๐จ BREAKING: Most people use ChatGPT to find flights.
Smart travelers use it to save hundreds of dollars before they book.
Here are 15 powerful ChatGPT prompts that turn it into an AI Travel Agent:
Dario Amodei, anthropic's CEO, just answered the question everyone is asking. should you still learn to code:
1. coding is going away first. the AI models are doing it already. the broader task of software engineering takes longer but that's going too. if you're learning to code purely for job security, you're learning the wrong thing.
2. even at 5% of the task you're still valuable. if AI does 95% and you do 5%, you become 20 times more productive. comparative advantage is surprisingly powerful even when the gap is massive.
3. the professions with the most runway are human-centered ones. things that mix people, the physical world, and analytical skills together. he uses the radiologist example. the doctor who understands patients and context, not just reads scans.
4. critical thinking might be the most important skill of the next decade. when AI can generate anything, the ability to tell what's real from what's fake becomes rare and valuable. you don't want false beliefs. you don't want to get scammed. that's his actual advice to a 25 year old.
5. AI can make you stupider if you use it carelessly. anthropic ran studies on this. depending on how you use the model, de-skilling in coding is measurable and real. the tool doesn't cause it. carelessness does.
6. the semiconductor space is his pick for a capitalistic win in the next decade. physical world, traditional engineering, direct AI tailwind. not software but chips.
A stranger does not need your password to steal your money.
They need your phone number.
With one SIM swap, they can access your:
- OTP codes
- Banking apps
- WhatsApp
- Gmail recovery
- Crypto accounts
Here is how to make your number useless to hackers โ
After 40 years of NRM rule, President Museveni has failed to groom capable leadership in Uganda, whether it be from opposition or his party. This is the dilemma Uganda is going to grapple with after his death. The selfish state expansion, the president insists on pushing, is destroying the Nation.
Itโs deeply disappointing that General Muhoozi has been given an opportunity to demonstrate his capability as a leader to Ugandans but chooses to show that given the chance, he would be rogue, abusive and prefers to be feared. This is the weakest form of state expansion. Very few leaders in history who use such tactics to command control, last.
@mkainerugaba your advisors are excited. This strategy you deploy is ill advised. Release political prisoners.
SOMEONE BUILT A FREE TOOL THAT MAKES EVERY PAID VIDEO DOWNLOADER POINTLESS
It's called Cobalt.
You paste a link, you get the file. No pop-ups, no fake buttons, no accounts, no tracking, no paywall.
YouTube. TikTok. Instagram. Twitter/X. Reddit. SoundCloud. 20+ platforms supported.
Every other free downloader site hits you with fake virus warnings and three buttons that all say "Download" where none of them are real.
Cobalt works like a proxy. The file goes from the platform straight to your browser. Nothing is stored on their end, nothing is logged, nothing is cached.
The full codebase is public and 39,000+ devs are watching it.
You can self-host it with one Docker command if you want your own private instance.
Free. Open source. AGPL-3.0 License.
Conor Neill: "18 years of school trained you to ruin conversations."
Someone says:
"Your product is too expensive."
"You're always late."
"You never wash the dishes."
Most people immediately defend themselves.
Why?
Because school trained us to answer questions.
For 18 years, the pattern was simple:
Question โ Answer.
But in real life, that's often the worst response.
When someone says:
"Your product is too expensive."
And you reply:
"No, it's not."
The conversation is over.
You've learned nothing about what's really bothering them.
Neill calls this "Conversation Aikido."
Instead of pushing back, move toward the objection.
Acknowledge it.
Explore it.
Ask questions.
Example:
"Your product is too expensive."
โ "I understand budget is important. What other factors will influence this decision?"
"You're always late."
โ "I understand you're frustrated. What happened from your perspective?"
The goal isn't to win the argument.
It's to understand what's underneath it.
Because the first objection is rarely the real issue.
And according to Neill:
"The answer to your 4th open question is usually where the real problem starts to appear."
Stop defending.
Start getting curious.
IF YOU DIED TOMORROW, YOUR FAMILY WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO ACCESS A SINGLE THING YOU OWN DIGITALLY.
BANK ACCOUNTS. PASSWORDS. CLOUD STORAGE. ALL OF IT PERMANENTLY LOCKED AWAY.
HERE'S HOW TO FIX IT IN 30 MINUTES:
Stop telling Claude, "do this."
Stop telling Claude, "write code."
Stop telling Claude, "fix this error."

Jack Dorsey's new AI tool, Goose, is 100% FREE.
You type:
"Build me a website like YouTube."
And Goose gets to work on its own:
โ Creates the entire project
โ Writes all the code
โ Installs dependencies
โ Fixes errors automatically
โ Keeps going until it's working
The crazy part?
โข No monthly subscription
โข Runs on your own device
โข Your code stays private
โข Completely open-source
Just a few years ago, building software meant hiring developers or learning to code.
Now you can start with nothing but an idea.
We're entering a world where ideas are becoming more valuable than technical skills.
