1/
Building a personal brand?

Cool. Just know this:

❌ You don’t get to “just” be a copywriter.
❌ You don’t get to “just” run ads.
❌ You don’t get to “just” write emails.

If you want to win as a one-person brand…
You need to stack skills like a damn Swiss Army knife. 🧵 👇

@VincenzoPala @NASAArtemis I'm a dummy, but my assumption is that it could be the same phenomenon as on Earth when looking at the moon. It looks much larger when it's closer to the horizon. I think it's called the "moon illusion." I guess you could call that the "Earth Illusion"?

Hilarious but brilliant

[Om Patel @om_patel5]

I taught Claude to talk like a caveman to use 75% less tokens.

normal claude: ~180 tokens for a web search task

caveman claude: ~45 tokens for the same task

"I executed the web search tool" = 8 tokens
caveman version: "Tool work" = 2 tokens

every single grunt swap saves 6-10 tokens. across a FULL task that's 50-100 tokens saved

why does it work? caveman claude doesn't explain itself. it does its task first. gives the result. then stops.

no "I'd be happy to help you with that." no "Let me search the web for you" no more unnecessary filler words

"result. done. me stop."

50-75% burn reduction

with usage limits getting tighter every week this might be the most practical hack out there right now

[Larry Sheckell @larrysheckell]

Got it. So we’re not defending the original comparison anymore. 👍

That makes sense, because comparing a suborbital V2 to an orbital, reusable system was never a serious argument to begin with, was it? Neither was pretending that “hasn’t reached LEO in 11 flights” was some sort of failure. Since you're such a brainiac, you understand that none of those 11 flights were operational missions in the first place, rather iterative test launches designed to gather data and fail in controlled ways. I'm sure you understand that’s how modern rocketry actually works.

And I'll concede that I went a bit harsh with the "intellectual capacity" comment. That was indeed unnecessary on my part. But I really only saw two options: either you didn’t understand that you were comparing apples to watermelons, or you did and made the comparison in bad faith, anyway. Neither one of those options makes your original point any better. And since you're more concerned with defending your resume than your original argument, I'd say you've narrowed down which it was quite well for everyone to see.

[Larry Sheckell @larrysheckell]

Lmao! Bro, the V2 was a 46-ft, 28,000-lb missile that briefly touched suborbital space. Starship is a 400-ft, 11-million-lb vehicle trying to hit 17,500 mph, reach orbit, reenter, and then land on an X 62 miles below it. The fact that they've landed the thing multiple times is beyond insane, but you're over here trying to compare something equivalent to tossing a rock in the air to accelerating a freaking freight train to hypersonic speed and catching it on the way back down.

The mass is hundreds of times greater, the velocity is orders of magnitude higher, and the energy involved isn’t even in the same universe.

Listen, you can hate on Elon all you want, I don't care about that at all, but pretending that a WWII missile and Starship are even comparable just tells me you don’t have the intellectual capacity to even understand the problem you’re trying to critique.

@fighto As much as I love the idea and get how helpful it is... as someone who does SEO I feel this is yet another devastating blow to website owners.

[Larry Sheckell @larrysheckell]

@HannsKronenberg @iPullRank Thanks for clarifying. And I love the idea of turning a crawl report into a clear story. I'll be using this a lot!

[Larry Sheckell @larrysheckell]

@iPullRank Great share!
