Most people treat Claude like a search engine The ones getting 10x results use a prompt with 8 layers. Here's the anatomy of a Claude prompt that actually works: → Task — what you want + why it matters → Context Files — feed it the right docs first → Reference — show it what "good" looks like → Success Brief — define the outcome, tone & what to avoid → Rules — your constraints, landmines & standards → Conversation — ask clarifying Qs before executing → Plan — surface the 3 most critical rules first → Alignment — get sign-off before a single word is written The gap between average and elite AI output isn't the model. It's the prompt structure. Save this. You'll use it every single time

higher #taxes and #gasoline #prices, fewer #jobs, new #wars, open #corruption, loss of alliances, respect across the world, continued violation of the US #Constitution and (international) laws. If you did not vote for all of this, it's time to take action #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice

BREAKING: Correct. With no explanations. @tiktok_us has throttled or frozen individual videos criticizing ICE and simply disabled entire accounts whether the video pertains to ICE or not - and not even offered spurious explanations or notices #TikTokCensorship

Not posting anything work-related today #minnesota #generalstrike. Instead, paraphrasing the poet: "I give a shout out to the living dead Fools follow rules while they demand your head Just victims of the in-house drive-by They say jump, you say how high" lnkd.in/erZevs49https://www.…

Honey badgers beat #Amazon #Badgers why I’m cheering for the new accomplishments-based reviews while booing the badge-tracking surveillance we kept out of our startup university. @NU_Business open.substack.com/pub/amazon…

At #CES, Amazon announced Alexa+ moved from Echo devices to the web. @conorgrennan believes. I do not. My #takeaways for a late entrant with unclear differentiation advantage in the dynamic #AI market amazondays.substack.com/p/wi…

January 6th participant Pamela Hemphill, who refused President Trump's pardon: "Once I got away from the MAGA cult and started educating myself about January the 6th, I knew what I did was wrong...I am guilty, and I own that guilt...I had fallen for the president’s lies."

Five years ago today, Donald Trump urged his supporters to attack Congress and the Capitol over a proven lie. More than 140 police officers were injured. Trump then pardoned the attackers. He betrayed his oath and his country, and we won't ever forget it.

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” —George Orwell, 1984
This is straight out of Stalin’s Soviet Union or today’s North Korea: the White House has launched a full-blown January 6 revisionist website, claiming the rioters were “peaceful patriotic protesters,” blaming Nancy Pelosi and Democrats for “security lapses,” asserting that “Democrats staged the real insurrection,” that “2020 is considered the greatest election theft in U.S. history,” and that Mike Pence, “in an act of cowardice and sabotage…presides over the certification of contested electors,” among dozens of other debunked lies.
