@kajakallas How on EARTH were Russian ex combatants of the war allowed to freely roam Europe up until now??????
This genuinely makes me sick, and appalled by the incompetency of Europe.
I can't believe something so obviously crazy was allowed to happen.

How to duplicate your (entire) brain in Claude:
Step 1. Download the Claude desktop app.
☑ Go to claude .com/download
☑ Set Opus 4.8 as default
☑ Turn ON Extended Thinking
Step 2. Open Claude Cowork mode.
☑ Cowork = where your brain lives
☑ Click the top left tab between 'chat' and 'code'
☑ Create your "Brain" folder inside
Step 3. Install Wispr Flow (it's free).
☑ Turns your voice → text
☑ Voice = faster and more honest
☑ Typing kills the truth. Dictate your context
Step 4. Run the 100-question taste interview.
☑ Paste Prompt 1 from https://t.co/kDGBpSF7Wh
☑ 100 questions, 7 categories
☑ Push past every vague answer. Be very specific
Step 5. Compress the dump.
☑ Paste Prompt 2 from https://t.co/kDGBpSF7Wh
☑ 20,000 words cost you 4,000 tokens
☑ Save your files as about-me .md file
Step 6. Write your anti-ai-writing-style .md.
☑ Every word you refuse to see: no "delve"
☑ Kill negative parallelism ("it's not X, it's Y")
☑ Without it, Claude writes like Claude.
Step 7. Write your my-company .md.
☑ Your goals, your focus, your hard no's right now
☑ Keep it > 1,000 tokens, update once a quarter
☑ This is your north star file.
Step 8. Test it in a blank chat.
☑ Open a fresh Claude chat (point to no folder)
☑ Run a prompt only you would write
☑ If it sounds like you → ship it
Step 9. Drop all 3 files into Cowork.
☑ Move all 3 files into your "Brain" folder
☑ Claude reads them on every single turn
☑ You stop prompting your brain. Your files do it.
Step 10. Port it everywhere.
☑ Upload to ChatGPT, Grok, Gemini
☑ Same files = same brain in every AI
☑ Hand it to your team or your ghostwriter
Step 11. Edit it forever.
☑ Install Obsidian (free)
☑ Open your Cowork folder as a vault
☑ You change. So must these files.
You'll resist this. It feels reductive. It feels scary.
You've built an identity on being hard to pin down.
But the mystery, when you look at it closely, is usually just being vague.

Claude Code creator:
"I don’t prompt Claude anymore. What I mostly use now is loops. I create loops - they do the rest of my job."
In 24 minutes, Boris reveals his real daily Claude Code setup:
Claude + loops + routines + dynamic workflows
Worth more than a $500 vibe-coding course
Anthropic engineer:
"You're not supposed to prompt Claude. You're supposed to build a system that prompts itself."
this is one of the best workflows I've seen in a long time
in this video he breaks down exactly how most people are using Claude:
- the 14% you lose to CLAUDE.md before typing a word
- the plugins that 95% of users have never installed
- the caching setup that keeps it at 95% hit rate and almost free
- why starting every chat from zero is the slowest way to use Claude
if you've been using Claude for more than a month and never left the chat window, you've been using one project when you could be running a team of them

I think the challenge is that everyone can now build apps
But
1) almost nobody has distribution (like an audience), or
2) the money to pay for distribution (ads or UGC), or
3) the creative genius to get distribution for free (classically called guerilla marketing)
Gavi was a complete waste of a call up for this Spain World Cup team.
Offers nothing special whatsoever, and is far from good enough to be a starter, let alone a backup.
Branded queries are the real GEO battleground. Not unbranded ones.
Everyone is chasing unbranded AI citations. Get mentioned when someone asks ChatGPT about "best CRM software" or "top marketing agencies." I understand the appeal. But it's the wrong place to start.
The brands that are actually winning in AI search are locking down branded query performance first. Type your company name into Perplexity or ChatGPT right now. What comes back?
For most brands, it's a mess. Outdated descriptions. Wrong product details. Competitor framing. Sometimes nothing.
Fix that before anything else.
AI models pull branded information from a specific set of sources: your Wikipedia presence, your Crunchbase profile, major press coverage, and the top ten pages consistently ranking for your brand name on Google. That's the citation stack you can control.
The playbook is straightforward:
Audit what AI says about you today. Type your brand name as a question into ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini. Screenshot the answers.
Identify where the wrong information originates. Nine times out of ten, it traces back to a stale third-party profile or an old press release Google still surfaces.
Update the source, not your homepage. Brands refresh their website and wonder why AI still has inaccurate information. The model isn't reading your homepage. It's reading what authoritative sources say about you.
Build one genuinely citable content asset per quarter. Not a blog post. A data study, an original framework, something with your name attached to a specific idea.
Branded GEO is the foundation. Unbranded citation is the ceiling. Most teams are trying to hit the ceiling before they've poured the slab.
Shocking. :) This is bad for Reddit, bad for AI Search, and bad for Google. There is no way this is sustainable. From a Google standpoint, I expect we'll see manual actions and/or a spam update hammer sites gaming AI Search. The question is, how long will it take for Google to start doing that? I think sooner than later. Stay tuned.
"The moderators of the biohacking subreddit say that peptide and hormone replacement therapy companies have been surreptitiously spamming Reddit in an attempt to get their posts scraped by AI chatbots. The strategy is an effort to systematically manipulate the answers provided by chatbots by manipulating the underlying source material that those chatbots will scrape—in this case, a popular Reddit community."
🚨 The House just voted 218-204 to move forward on the discharge petition to provide military aid to Ukraine and impose tough sanctions on Russia. The House will vote on final passage tomorrow. This is our Churchill moment and we must pass the test.
