@ffa2 @hentcredito Which bring to my opinion: working in small startups your work deliver more impact to customers. Therefore your work is more valuable and is not easily expendable

@JotaOliveira @NoxPayio Boa JP

@eduardolundgren The biggest problem in streaming finding what to watch

Incredible how every single piece of software in Apple ecosystem is getting terrible. This time it’s the iOS keyboard. Amy recommendations?

[Thiago Diniz @dinizz]

@rrrima_ That's awesome! The way macOS currently handles screenshots adds too much friction when you just want to drop one anywhere.

Are you planning to make this available?

[Thiago Diniz @dinizz]

@nukdf I think this is a common blind spot for engineers early in their careers.

[Thiago Diniz @dinizz]

@daniellimae community power!

Cybersecurity is going to get messy over the next few months. Thoughtful post from @jackhcable on what to do about it:

@leoreinaux Concordo, porém quando você vai buscar, já foi levantando uns $ 3M de anjos.

[Thiago Diniz @dinizz]

SDS de quando uma rodada de investimento era nomeada pelo valor... Não dá pra achar normal um seed de $30M BRL

@JotaOliveira As cadeiras era da herman miller?

Weekend hack: HackerTube. I was annoyed with YouTube's recommendations so I had Claude filter down 43M comments over 20 years of HN to 6,454 videos that keep being recommended. *Significantly* better viewing experience, ~2 hours with Opus 5.5:
https://t.co/JIhXN7OSh1

- Excellent recs without any logins (state is kept in local browser session)
- Thumbnail is a representative frame from middle of the video instead of the super duper A/B test hyper-optimized user uploads
- Underlying data from the comment analysis as one zip file, point your Claude at it and ask for your own version
- HackerTube Longs ✊

A bit more on the process:
I use Claude Code (desktop app for Mac), Opus 5.5 on Medium effort as my default. I only talk to Claude and have it do everything, the only "manual work" I helped with in tandem was in the browser (reminiscent of MenuGen): 1) I had to create some kind of API key from Google Cloud UI to query YouTube for video metadata, 2) I booted up a VPS box for serving and 3) I bought the domain name. Once the box was up I gave Claude the IP and told it update, secure, harden, deploy and optimize the code, and it did the whole thing.

Many awesome projects that would have normally taken weeks/months even can now be few-shotted for breakfast. What else are we not thinking of.

@omarsar0 @karpathy This is getting interesting

[Uncle Bob Martin @unclebobmartin]

Great line from the CTO of Proton. I’m paraphrasing and stealing it :

Your job is not to use agents to help you write code. Your job is to lead the agents to help them write code.

@JotaOliveira JP, Herman miller pode virar um indexador de fraude quando a empresa compra, mas que elas são muito boas é inegável. Passa o link?

[Thiago Diniz @dinizz]

@nukdf Please @SlackHQ do this! This would keep me to making time calculations to schedule the message.

[Thiago Diniz @dinizz]

@GadiBorovich @AntigravitySF @Puentes_SF Thanks again for the invite, @GadiBorovich. It’s invigorating to talks with high agency people

[Thiago Diniz @dinizz]

@danilocfuchs Nunca acaba! Até mandei um input de um pequeno detalhe que me pegou

[Thiago Diniz @dinizz]

Emocionante ver SaaS brasileiros com atenção aos detalhes. A animação de onde configurar super instrutiva.

Super onboarding da Salvy!!

[Thiago Diniz @dinizz]

Brazil is not for amateurs!

But I guess my take on this is that prediction markets, aka bets, don’t have enough critical mass to have a clear picture of what’s is going in Brazil
