Not good

@jsnover @matvelloso Was that the origin of this statement?
The one I liked best - I think from PC Week - insanely great, insanely late.

@JohnFMauldin Out of my price range

[David Machanick @machanick]

@DiMartinoBooth This is why big tech has huge layoffs and AI is increasing its price.
Cash flow doesn’t lie.

@ianbremmer we could swap Rhode Island statehood for Puerto Rican statehood - if they are interested this time. (President Ford proposed it 50 years ago and no one was interested.)

I am impressed by the great quality of these transcripts every time I go through one.
A BIG thanx o @StefanMaron.

A Google Cloud engineer just showed how to build a full app with Claude from scratch

he spent 26 minutes showing exactly what one person with Claude can do, completely free

worth more than any $500 vibe-coding course

here's what he covers:
> raw idea to deployed app in a single session
> using Claude as the entire engineering team
> the exact workflow they use at Google
> no big team, no prior experience needed

the people who figure out what Claude can actually do are building things everyone else thinks requires a team

that's exactly why I put together a guide on Claude features most people have no idea exist

the guide is in the article below

[Rohit @ai_rohitt]

🚨 Anthropic just showed a 27-minute workshop on how to actually do prompts for Claude.

Taught by the people who built it.

Free. No registration. No paywall.

I've seen $300 courses that don't cover what they teach in the first 8 minutes.

Watch it and bookmark it now.

@martinmbauer I recommend adding Great Courses for education on a wide variety of subjects. I subscribe through Amazon Prime.
I watch while I exercise.

[Stefan Maroń @StefanMaron]

Going live on YouTube.

Taking a real published AppSource extension and asking: how good can AL code actually get?

Running the analyzers, walking through the findings, exploring what ISO 5055 reveals that most of us never think about.

I'm super excited to share my work tomorrow with my fellow fellows and circle of friends at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University.
This project has totally consumed me.
It feels less like I'm doing a project and more like the project is a force of nature that is using me to be birthed.
Crazy cool stuff!
Here is an infographic:

@NTLiveMedia @josephwang Initially Uber was very cheap. That changed when they changed from having huge losses to making a profit.

@RoyalCaribbean Chat is not working right now - I can try later.

[David Machanick @machanick]

@RoyalCaribbean I signed up for Points Choice. It has been over 30 days since my Celebrity cruise and my points still have not transferred.

@danprimack A lot of middle income jobs are being cut from large companies. The jobs being added so far less in number, but much higher paying.

🔥I spend some times in the last days on writing what I think about the situation of real #AI for business. This can be an unpopular opinion that might trigger reactions, but that is...🤭
I think that around 60/70% of enterprise AI projects can fail because organizations are building the wrong thing. They're simply adding "in-product" or "low-code" AI features on top of broken processes and calling it "transformation."
The uncomfortable truth? Real AI requires developer-oriented engineering, cloud orchestration, and honest conversations about what's actually possible. Not vibe coding. Not only low-code tools.
Who succeed do one thing differently: they redesign workflows first, then engineer systems that operate at scale.
I've written a full breakdown of why I think most projects fail and what actually works. As said before, these are just my opinions coming from the real-world I see every day, that maybe can be different from yours 😅💚

Curious for months already to listen to @FinnPedersenFR and hear what he has been cooking.
