🦆 Duel Duck: The Liquidation of 'The House'
@duel_duck is not a betting site; it is a Decentralized Arena where the concept of "The House" has been officially liquidated. Built on Solana, it turns every user into a potential bookie through its peer to peer duel creation system.
In Cowork, you give Claude access to a folder on your computer. Claude can then read, edit, or create files in that folder.
Try it to create a spreadsheet from a pile of screenshots, or produce a first draft from scattered notes.
In the AI era, being a founder has never been this rewarding. Same in crypto: no distribution problems, just build product. Ship new features instantly, models evolve daily, people pay more for software.
It does seem like the most rewarding time ever to be a founder..
- no distribution problems only product problems
- you can ship every new feature you can think of, trivially
- if stuff isn’t working just wait and the models will both get exponentially better + gain new capabilities
-people are paying more than ever for software
to be honest, just:
> stay healthy
> spend time + effort cultivating relationships
> take part in your community
> sleep well
and you’ll be richer than 99% of people.
@TimDraper In the volatile crypto space, relying on checklists means missing the moonshots. The real winners are those wild ideas that don't fit any mold ones that make VCs hesitate with "interesting, but.." That's the birthplace of trillion dollar revolutions What's your boldest 'but' bet?
Forgive the Cursor fanboys, but Claude Code > Cursor.
If you want speed in an IDE, go for Cursor, but if you want real autonomy and intelligence, switch to the terminal. Are you still writing code with mouse clicks in 2026?
it's official
i've joined @polymarket to grow the builder ecosystem and push onchain integrations forward
prediction markets are just getting started and polymarket is leading - excited to push this forward
dm me if you're building cool stuff - i'd love to chat and support!
@milesdeutscher The smartest way to start vibe coding is solving your own problems you learn while actually getting something useful out of it. Build some automatic crypto analysis tool or whatever, it would be fire!
Claude has gone absolutely insane lol, returned shoes on Amazon and reordered new ones in just 2 sentences. At this rate, we’re all gonna be out of a job soon 😅
Claude Code just processed a return for the shoes I ordered on Amazon and ordered the next size up for me.
Completely autonomously, from a 2-sentence task description.
HAVE YOU UPDATED YOUR WORLDVIEW THAT BROWSER AGENTS ACTUALLY WORK YET?
@c_spelliscy This is a huge step for Ethereum's long-term strateg proactive policy engagement is key in the evolving crypto landscape. Looking forward to the impact your team will make. Best of luck filling those roles!
As a daily user of both, Claude's flexible responses from onecliners to thoughtful queries outshine ChatGPT's predictable structures like bullets and sections.
As a DAU of both ChatGPT and Claude, the difference that pops out is the flexibility in responses.
ChatGPT almost always responds with the same structure - sections, “not just this - but that”, bullet points, etc.
Claude will respond with a one line question or comment.
Claude Code updates 'file over app' by making apps portable too. Clone cloud services locally, run on your files unleashing decentralized, user owned tech. The golden age of local apps is here!
In 2026, Claude Code could finally unleash the golden age of local and decentralized apps.
The reason is that Claude Code allows you to quickly clone any moderately complex cloud-based app into a decent local one that runs on only your files.
This is an important update to Obsidian founder Kepano’s concept of “file over app.” His argument was that files are portable (and hence more reliable) but apps are not.
The new information is that apps are suddenly portable too. That is: apps of moderate complexity without strong global network effects are suddenly easy to clone. The clone won’t be perfect right away, but it’ll be pretty good. And if the cloning dev sticks with it it’ll get better.
So: can we get a local open source Mac app for everything, operating only on your files? Maybe we can make that a reality.
Right now is actually the perfect time tons of incredible talent is being overlooked globally. Smart teams can create a real advantage by hiring without borders.
There is a subset of talent that did well last cycle, but is now struggling to find their next role because hiring has narrowed to the US (nyc, sf, limited remote) and europe (for engineering). quiet opportunity here for teams that know what they need and take advantage of this talent arbitrage.
Packy! Podcasts spark curiosity, but ideas truly shine when written refined, data backed, illustrated. Your Not Boring World bet on co-writing with geniuses to capture practitioner insights? Game changer in a video saturated era. Can't wait to dive in!
Ideas are meant to be written.
After six years of fully free, I'm launching a paid piece of not boring: not boring world.
Where the world’s smartest founders, researchers, investors, creatives, and general geniuses, the ones I couldn’t hire as a full-time writer for a million bucks, write their best ideas.
Here’s the master plan.
Geniuses bring their genius ideas, I help write them. Call it a Cossay or a Joint or something. Whatever we call it, make it as easy to for busy practitioners to share their insights in the essay format those insights deserve as it is for them to spill them on a podcast.
We get all the geniuses in one place, and then we grow from there. This world is biological; your guess re: how it evolves is as good as mine. But it will, and I want you to be a part of it.
We are making a few bets. That ideas are meant to be written. That people who are out there doing things earn ideas you can’t find in LLMs. That the most biased narrator, the one betting his or her livelihood on his or her idea, is the most reliable narrator. That when it’s easier than ever to get mediocre outputs on-demand, the best thing you can feed your brain is high-quality inputs from high-quality people.
That the future can be full of both means and meaning, and that we can create the home for this good future online. A place that’s smart and weird and, hopefully a little magical.
I mean, it’s a newsletter, so we’ll see. But that’s what I’m going for.
Per SensorTower data, it looks like a whopping 40% of Amazon mobile sessions utilize AI assistant Rufus.
And, conversion to purchase is materially better for Rufus-involved searches.
This is much higher than I expected…but if a chatbot is there, people will talk to it 😂
