The biggest problem in the world today, by a very big margin, is the relentless context switching that the AI driven work demands.

Introducing ⌘+L, the fastest way to dispatch Claude Code or Codex to edit your website.

💼 Modem is growing!
we're hiring a Content Marketer in Toronto - know someone great? send it their way

Ran benchmarks on MediaContext classification accuracy to find the delta between what we observe vs. empirical data. We achieved a 100% match for 98% of one vendor's total supply footprint.
This means we're ready to deliver on our promise of providing the most current, extensive technographics and metadata on premium web properties.
I have a few design partner slots still open. Email/DM me for a demo.
Wow, I’m back on Claude Code Max and they really made this a workhorse. 5 parallel sessions all day, 2 with /goals, very impressive how they’re managing usage.
I don’t understand how, after a decade of having a deranged megalomaniac and twice-convicted felon as head of state, anybody can still say that “democracy has on the whole worked very well”.
Are you telling me that this has been democracy… working well? What bar are we holding the notion of democracy to?
The biggest failure of democracy is its invariable drift into being vulnerable to tyrants and despots. The second biggest is the rose-coloured glasses we love to see it through.
It’s a shame that the most idealistic system of governance humans ever devised is the easiest to dismantle, and is indeed dismantled in the most predictable ways like clockwork.
It seems to me that democracy has on the whole worked very well in America over the last decade, and perhaps better than in any other major country in the West. National outcomes have repeatedly been responsive to underlying voter preferences on meaningful questions, and significant changes in policy have ensued. I’ve been reading Democracy in America this past week, and it’s striking how much it still rhymes nearly two centuries later.

I'm Emile, 28, ex-Citadel quant, and I'm building something to make your conversion rate go up
Introducing RoutingCat, an agent-first CLI made for optimizing your conversion rate automatically.
One prompt on your SaaS/landing/agency and have your agent try variants in minutes. RoutingCat learns in the background how to route visitors to the variants they respond best to. On vercel, decisions are made server-side in a fraction of a millisecond, without any flicker or browser script.
Your claude code knows how to parametrize everything and analyze results. You bring your own AI, we give it a CLI and skills .
Ah! As a bonus it also allows you to run complete attribution analysis and see where converts come from with your ads, social, search, etc.
Installation is a single prompt from your project, for instance "Install RoutingCat using the npx routingcat init, then finish setup with the routingcat skill"
DMs open!

Claude estimates it would have cost $600K-$900K to generate equivalent engineering output as I have over the last month.
The MediaContext repo stats show 71 PRs, 432 commits, and >400k lines of code contributed by 13 authors. (I’m the only human in that particular loop.)
On average, I spend about 3-4 hours a day actively building this product.
A ton of things go wrong every day on this build, from poor table schema to release failures to VM crashes.
This one time, one of the agents decided to rebuild the entire database locally, crashing my Mac by putting the entire SDD in swap after chewing through the RAM.
However, because I read every postmortem and Greptile review, I build the guardrails to not repeat the same mistake twice.
It’s also true this work represents the most dense learning curve in my career. There’s so much more depth and complexity to building software than marketing it.
Here's the full stack in one sheet. If you're building a product with agents, you should save this to solve problems you don't even know exist yet.
I'm now in the elite group of huckters peddling essays for social media juice.
In this one, you'll learn about the 12 categories of tools used in the making of production AI agents today.
“Another essay you should read immediately…”
Oh, should I now.
Sir, if I had any appetite left to cram my brain with words from the clanker factory, I assure you that I would.
Unfortunately, I’m scared that if I read one of these goddamn AI slop essays on X, my brain would atrophy into an irrevocably small shell of its former self.
I wish for you to consume a million more neural net word vomits. I pray that your own neural weights don’t become the equivalent of the organic trash can that I refuse to empty, and by the time I do, the contents have transmogrified into soft pulp and rancid garbage juice.
No, I really mean it: Please enjoy your sad ass robot essays about changing your life in one day and 9-step agent harnesses orchestration circle jerk.

When it comes to hiring, it’s easier to tame a reckless hustler than it is to instill that dawg in someone
Excited to share that I’m a recipient of a startup grant awarded by ElevenLabs.
I’ve played around a bit with their API to generate music and game sound FX, but I can’t wait to dig into the rest of it.
Thanks again @ElevenLabs team 🫡
Let’s put these 33,000,000 credits to work.
