Everything I tweet goes through a rigorous filter.

Luis Enrique. Won the Treble at Barca. Won the Treble at PSG. Won back to back Champions League. Made an egotistical, failing team kings of Europe twice. Lost his daughter and seems a genuine top, top man. Pep Guardiola is the GOAT but Enrique is up there with the very best. 🇪🇸

2026 is 40% complete.

@shilpiagrawal55 @WeirdoWizard This is a great idea

[Ramesh Srivats @rameshsrivats]

"National Security" is such a broad term that it can be used against Delhi Gymkhana at one end and Cockroach Party at the other.
Maybe it should be "National Insecurity".

I have witnessed this club go from doubters to believers, and from believers to champions. It took hard work and I always did everything I could to help the club get there. Nothing makes me prouder than that.

Us crumbling to yet another defeat this season was very painful and not what our fans deserve. I want to see Liverpool go back to being the heavy metal attacking team that opponents fear and back to being a team that wins trophies. That is the football I know how to play and that is the identity that needs to be recovered and kept for good. It cannot be negotiable and everyone that joins this club should adapt to it.

Winning some games here and there is not what Liverpool should be about. All teams win games.

Liverpool will always be a club that means a great deal to me and to my family. I want to see it succeed for long after I have moved on.

As I’ve always said, qualifying to next season’s Champions League is the bare minimum and I will do everything I can to make that happen.

🚨 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Liverpool have made contact with Bayern over Michael Olise and have offered £90M + Cody Gakpo.

Bayern Munich have said they will only take the £90M.

Not sure about designers, but Figma Make in its current form is definitely dead. Claude Design functions much better.

[Alok Sharma @_aloksharma]

I think AI is making a list.

[rahat @Rahatcodes]

Claude Code has a regex that detects "wtf", "ffs", "piece of shit", "fuck you", "this sucks" etc.

It doesn't change behavior...it just silently logs is_negative: true to analytics.

"Well, Claude Max 20x is actually now Max 5x. But it is better than Pro."

[Claude @claudeai]

You can now enable Claude to use your computer to complete tasks.

It opens your apps, navigates your browser, fills in spreadsheets—anything you'd do sitting at your desk.

People who don't do any thinking think that thinking is a waste of time.

[Alok Sharma @_aloksharma]

@hobdaydesign 2nd point seems more likely.

Designers who operate at systems level in large teams become good communicators having to defend and communicate their ideas frequently.

Designers who operate at craft level, or specialised, isolated, IC roles work with intuition – less comms.

[Alok Sharma @_aloksharma]

With Claude Cowork, I finally had a brand new idea to extract all of these ideas, organise them according to relevant themes and build a simple HTML webpage to help me process and visualise these easily.

Next step is to actually finish some of the projects I've started.

[Alok Sharma @_aloksharma]

Years of journalling finally paying off with @claudeai Claude Cowork.

I have been journalling on and off for about 7 years now with Obsidian (markdown files). A habit I've followed since the beginning is to add all whimsical ideas my brain conjures up with the tag '# idea'.

[Alok Sharma @_aloksharma]

The downside is Claude's token limit getting exhausted within 5 minutes – a new and expensive way to design. Unless something like this becomes open-source, adoption will be limited.

But it's definitely fun watching the agents work while I waste my time elsewhere.

[Alok Sharma @_aloksharma]

Designed an Idea Journal app with https://t.co/nye3seeir6 and Claude. Or rather, I asked them to design it, politely.

Pencil allows multiple agents to work simultaneously to design something on the canvas. It also has a decent options to select a design style for the app.

There is something special in artisanal hand-crafted icons. There'll always be. 🔥

[Michal Malewicz @michalmalewicz]

I do my icons oldschool!

[Alok Sharma @_aloksharma]

Tried the new agentic design experience with Paper.

Paper allows designing on a canvas in connection with any AI Agent of choice – Cursor, Codex etc. I chose Claude for this experiment. I tried designing a few simple, responsive login design screens.

[Alok Sharma @_aloksharma]

Took about 6 min and consumed just over 10K tokens. The end results are what we call a 'good start'. The real test will be throwing more complex, real-world design scenarios at it. Early days, but the workflow feels genuinely promising.
