1/ In late 2021, I bought my first BAYC for 300 dollars. At its peak, my portfolio hit 7 figures. Today? I look back with regret—not just for what I didn’t sell but for the lessons I had to learn the hard way. Here’s my story. 🧵
pov: your parents finally said yes to giving your childhood bedroom a makeover after 26 years so you spent your first adult money on it and documented the process
@internetvin vin! was also wondering how you normally structure your context files for claude for each project (eg. newsystem vs personal)?
is there certain sections you include or any prompts you use in particular for every new project?
saw you talk about it on greg's show briefly..
@internetvin have been using another plugin for about a month but having the terminal within obsidian really changes my workflow entirely!
will check your terminal plugin out too (:

"most people think tokens are the oxygen of llms. they're wrong. markdown files are."
been using @obsdmd for 3 years for writing and daily journalling and this podcast clearly shows how everything compounds.
worth a watch even if you're not a dev. it's never too late to start.
how to use obsidian + claude code to build a 24/7 personal operating system and build your startup:
1. write everything in markdown (daily notes, projects, beliefs, people, meetings)
2. link your notes together so they mirror how your brain actually thinks.
3. install obsidian cli so claude code can read your entire vault + the relationships.
4. stop reexplaining projects every session. use reference files instead.
5. build custom slash commands:
/context → load your full life + work state
/trace → see how an idea evolved over months
/connect → bridge two domains you’ve been circling
/ideas → generate startup ideas from your vault
/graduate → promote daily thoughts into real assets
6. keep a strict rule: human writes the vault. agents read it, suggest, execute.
7. let claude aka clode surface patterns you’ve been unconsciously circling for years.
8. delegate from inside your notes. one sentence in obsidian → agent handles the rest.
9. treat writing as leverage.the more you write, the more context your agents have.
10. understand this:markdown files are the oxygen of llms.
i really enjoyed seeing how to use obsidian thanks to @internetvin
vin uses ai like a thinking partner wired into his life’s work.
99.99% of people won’t do this because it requires reflection + setup.
but once the vault exists, the agent stops being generic.
it starts thinking in your voice.
episode is live on @startupideaspod (more there)
this one is different. send this tweet to a friend.
im still processing how game changer obsidian + claude code is, maybe you too

3/ Those weeks/months of euphoria didn’t last, and not selling is a regret I carry to this day. It’s why I’ve stayed away from the space, even turning off notifications—NFTs and finance-related posts would only remind me of the decisions I didn’t make.
Applying for jobs is so tiring and i've only sent my first few applications 🤣
Its lowkey embarrassing to apply for a creative position even as a part time or intern, yet with a resume filled with sporting experience only.
Nonetheless, if i never try, i'll never be hired.
