For over a decade, I got headhunted, recommended, chosen.
Then what used to work stopped working.
For the first time, I wondered if 12 years of experience still meant anything in a world that had changed while I wasn’t looking.
I’m turning that year into a gift.

Some say Opus 4.6 is nerfed so you’ll be forced to use 4.7, while some blew up their limit in 2 prompts. Others are licking Antrophic’s a** by sayin “am so excited for Opus 4.7”. My key takeaway are the skills like /go, where you can have CC review its own code. You be the judge.
Introducing Claude Opus 4.7, our most capable Opus model yet.
It handles long-running tasks with more rigor, follows instructions more precisely, and verifies its own outputs before reporting back.
You can hand off your hardest work with less supervision.

I’ve always been a digital planner.
Got gifted a Muji planner and didn’t get the hype ~ until I started writing in it.
Something about putting thoughts on paper still beats any tool.
When you are fully confident in who you are, why you do things, and in the ownership of how you do things… you’ll be that guy (or gal) who says no to $1B and equity from one of the (used to be) top companies in the digital world… with confidence.
i work at meta. hr systems. mostly comp processing. quiet job. stable. sometimes i daydream about retiring in portugal.
today a package hit my queue. base + bonus + equity. looks normal at first glance. then i open the details.
$1,000,000,000
over four years.
plus signing.
plus year 1 minimum: $100m.
i stare at it like it’s a typo. check the name. triple check the level. researcher.
coolcoolcool. so now i have to enter this into workday.
i paste the first number, field throws an error.“value must be below $99,999,999.”
lol. okay. i try splitting it. base in one bucket, equity in another. nope. i try scientific notation. it rounds it down.
the system can’t HANDLE a billion dollars.
i call someone on payroll infra. tell them i’ve got a 10-digit comp packet. they think i’m joking. i forward the req. they go quiet.
“we’re gonna need to escalate this,” someone mutters.
“to who?” i ask.
“god, maybe.”
next thing i know zuck’s chief of staff is in the thread. now i’m in a thread with zuck. because of a number.
then i find out the guy declined the offer.
just said no. no negotiation. no counter. just… no.
i’ve been maxing out my 401k for 11 years & this man said no to a billion dollars like he was skipping dessert.
i close the ticket. delete the draft.
go for a walk.
& then i rethink everything.

For the ones who’ve always played down their power—
This thread is for you.
Not to hype you up.
But to show you what’s already been there… the whole time.
