I am back! Every time I ask this question I find so much cool stuff to watch X, what are new good documentaries I should definitely watch?

Maybe we'll have to stay in 🇧🇷 Brazil for awhile after all...

Incredible Now imagine if it's a gaussian splat video and it moves

People don't realize you can just do tail -n 50 /var/log/{php*.log,nginx/error.log,syslog} 2>/dev/null | claude "analyze these logs for errors or issues" You don't need to pay any SaaS anything!

No actually it can

This is fun but what if we connect my PHP, JS and server error logs AND the bug and feature request board to an AI that then writes the code and does pull requests that I then approve or reject? How I do this? Can I do it with Claude Code?

I think this is where it's going too

RT Matthias Schmidt BREAKING: My sources in Brussels have confirmed the official EU response to the Iran conflict: 1. France has surrendered 2. Sweden offering asylum to both sides 3.

This week I decided to just permanently switch to running Claude Code on the server mostly on bypass permissions mode: c() { IS_SANDBOX=1 claude --dangerously-skip-permissions "$@"; } And for the first time in my life I think I've actually managed to outrun my todo list What happened is I simply blasted through my to do list of features I had to build and bugs I had to fix I've never shipped so fast and Claude Code almost made no mistakes, and when it did it they were tiny that weren't fatal (important because I'm mostly working on the server in production now) Before I was always known to ship fast (also because I always work alone) but while I shipped new things would always build up on my features/bug board (my users can submit them there) But this is the first week where I've been fast enough to outrun them The board is actually empty! As other people have written on here the real bottleneck is becoming myself and my creativity, not how fast I can ship. Because I think I ship faster now than I can come up with new ideas, or maybe my brain will adjust to this new speed (probably) Also I feel another limit is becoming my own mental context window, as in how many things, features, bugs, projects, I can keep in my mind in parallel while building on all of them. It's a lot and I haven't reached that limit yet but I feel I might be close I also noticed that you start going really fast the more you let it just go loose, before I was slow because I didn't trust it and I was scared it would destroy my code, now I just let it go. As @karpathy wrote, things feel like they've changed a lot around December last year when models became good enough to really code with and I feel the same When I see other friends code with Claude Code I often notice they're slow because they still check everything, which is good of course, but I feel the better way would be to create some tests and just let it run freely and see if it can pass those For me the tests are mostly just ...

I'm starting to love this guy Might save Germany and with it Europe!

🌏 Southeast Asia barely uses perfumes. In Japan and Korea, you will almost never smell one on another person There's a reason that might be a good thing Most commercial fragrances contain formaldehyde, styrene, and phthalates. All three are classified as carcinogenic or probable carcinogens. They also contain parabens, which are endocrine disruptors, compounds that interfere directly with your hormone system When perfume touches your skin, these chemicals absorb through it and enter your bloodstream. When someone near you wears perfume, you inhale them instead. Same result. They cross the blood-brain barrier There's also a second route. The olfactory nerve runs from your nasal cavity directly into your brain. No bloodstream required. You smell a fragrance, and the compounds are already there The fragrance industry is worth $60 billion a year. The products are marketed as luxury, self care, personal expression The chemicals in them are in your brain before you finish reading the label

🌏 One thing I absolutely love about South East Asia and especially East Asia is how free it is of perfumes and fragrances I barely smell them in Thailand and then if you go Korea or Japan you will simply NOT smell any perfumes And that's great because most perfumes are bad for you, they contain formaldehyde, styrene and phtalates, all considered carcinogenic They also contain parabens which are endocrine disruptors, which disrupt your hormone system When you wear perfume, these compounds get into your skin, or if someone else wears them you breathe them in, and after that in both cases they enter your bloodstream, and from there cross your blood-brain barrier But they don't even have to get into your bloodstream to enter your brain, there's the olfactory nerve pathway via your nose going straight into your brain So if you care about your health, avoid perfumes (or move to East Asia)

I want to make a sequel to my 2015 presentation "There Will Be 1 Billion Digital Nomads By 2035" with 10 year updates Do you have any things I should add? I had these notes to talk about: - AI allowing solo or lean teams work anywhere with massive output - new wealth and exit taxes (esp in Europe) - rise of network states - Starlink for fast internet access anywhere - governments competing with nomad visas (not so new but still new vs previous presentation) - climate migration - possible end of "settling down" for many, looking around me people just keep slow moving around and kids are raised globally anywhere and connected to friends via apps anyway so it's more easy now, global kids are preferable and higher IQ than kids who grow up in one place (more NPC-like) - rise of homesteading/tradwife/farm lifestyle on other side, lots of ppl leaving cities, going to farms or snow resorts etc. Also might be nice to do it at some conference somewhere again like I did 10y ago at DNX in Berlin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4IYOZ6H0UNk

I got that already! Tap [ Google Lens ] on any of your designs and it will use it to show you where to buy the actual interior objects

✨ Finally finishing this feature too [ 🛋️ Add furniture ] It doesn't work well yet though, I successfully can composite the furniture in the room (from whatever photo you get from the internet) now though But it has to position itself better in the room, like in the corner and in the right perspective...This one worked with a shorter prompt "Put furniture in room properly." Now it needs to put it against the walls though

Anyone else getting crazy CPU % with Claude Code today? My MacBook M4 Max fans are blowing for the first time in history???

Stop sending me this

OpenClaw might be the gateway drug for normies to finally start using Claude Code like the rest of us

✨ Nano Banana 2 is now live on 📸 Photo AI It's a real breakthrough for image models because it FINALLY has high resemblance, or as Google calls it subject consistency Which in my case means photos will actually look like you or your model trained, not "somewhat" like you, no really you, which is the entire point of Photo AI from the start Also they made Nano Banana 2 about ~2x cheaper vs Nano Banana Pro, which helps! I was spending $40,000/mo (like 40% of revenue now) on it so I will save ~$20,000/mo now, which I think I need to to get better profit margins (I like to stay at about 80-90% profit)

It's anti-marketing You make people think "Why in the hell he'd post this? He thinks this makes his product look good?" I'm not sure it'll work but it's different

🪴 To prove this works, I pulled a random SketchUp garden design from web, put it in 🏡 Interior AI and now you can walk around in it Gardens work and it supports decks, patios, pools, car parks etc already And more importantly you can redesign all of those in 50+ styles or upload your own style with an inspiration image 😊👌

💪 My personal trainer is also a consultant for many gyms in Portugal And she now uses 🏡 Interior AI to redesign gyms She first builds a concept in SketchUp, then uploads that basic wireframe to Interior AI which turns it into a photorealistic render in a few seconds Then she taps [ Make 3d ] and a few minutes later, she can walk around in her new design in 3d (thanks to @theworldlabs API) Very very very useful to show her gym clients how it'll look!

Incredibly cool

✨ @marclou, @rrhoover and me featuring on the X app in the iOS App Store today, what a great honor I will send it to my mom 😊

Only on X can you post about making something similar to Cyberpunk 2077's Braindance and get a reply from the developer responsible for making it with tips on how to improve it

✨ You can now batch remix photos with your own model For example, let's you you're a fashion brand and did a big photo shoot (real or AI) with one model (black hair), but you need the same shots with another model (blonde hair) Just select your new model, then select the photos you want to remix, and it'll use those as input to regenerate them but with your selected model Cheaper than re-doing the whole photo shoot, well actually about 1000x cheaper

🇧🇷 Waking up in Brazil near the ocean South Brazil has lots of great villas available although definitely not at the price point of South East Asia, I'd say 3-5x more expensive and whether that's worth it for you is debatable Build quality of villas in Brazil honestly really varies, a lot of it sucks and is cheap, but a lot of it is built with love and great materials too, kinda hit and miss, it depends if the owner is rich and built it for themselves or not Brazil is also a great place to build a villa, lots of land for sale, approval is fast, and there's no shortage of workers to build it (like in Europe) Brazil also has lots of great architects and interior designers, and they just make beautiful stuff This villa I love because it has that Bali white glossy stone (I think it's boho chic) and it's just great to walk down on barefeet, also I love the rotating stairs and this little jungle inside the living room Then you go outside and you hear the sea! I love living near the sea and I think the salty air really is healthy for you Only bad thing which is common here: no AC in living rooms, only in bedrooms. Why? People like to get the natural wind to cool although at peak summer (like February) it gets boiling hot Oh last thing many villas in Brazil come with a chef included (kinda like Bali and I think there's a colonial connection here as in Bali you sometimes get a "babu" and in Brazil it's called "babá") They cook for you what you want and get groceries etc Nice!

✨ Built my own Guassian Splat viewer for my app 🏡 Interior AI It takes splats generated from your interior with the @theworldlabs API so you can walk around them in 3d space It's starting to look much more real than when I added splats 6 months ago, great work 🌐 World Labs!

I think increasingly it's just because UK and W-Europe is getting exponentially worse while exponentially increasing taxes Like if everything around you turns into a shithole, then you fly to Dubai or Asia and it's just refreshing to finally be able to walk around in a clean shopping mall with shiny floors where the staff is nice to you and the streets aren't littered with trash and unsafe with thugs trying to stab or rob you It's not even that Dubai or Asia is so great, it's that what's left of W-Europe isn't so great anymore for the amount in cost of living and taxes it costs to live there!

I almost never get recognized in Portugal by Portuguese which is odd cause a lot of my audience is from there and I live there, I guess cause the Portuguese tech talent left Portugal and just works elsewhere (like US, UK, etc) But I do get recognized in Brazil a lot in random places like here, so many entrepreneurs and devs here who are also on X, there's so much energy here of people building stuff it's really exciting This guy looked oddly Portuguese though which was funny

✨ Okay last feature of the day in my 🌪️ tornado of shipping with Claude Code and --dangerously-skip-permissions Requested by someone on my feature board for http://interiorai.com: "Ability to use an inputted image as inspiration for the generation of the interior design in my rendered picture." Upload any custom style image from somewhere else, and a photo of your own interior and it redesigns it. It's just basic style transfer so not that interesting technologically, but useful If you select "Interior design" mode though it will also move around all the interior 😊👌

✨ You can now upload your own voice to add to any image or video on Photo AI The last feature request I didn't do yet on Photo AI's feature/bug board Again about 10 mins in Claude Code! 🌪️🌪️🌪️

Fully bootstrapped indie startups now make so much money they can do the same high production quality videos as VC-backed startups Incredible to see! 🎬👌

A few tweaks and I was running it in test mode but Claude Code messed up and sent it out to 500 people already accidentally 😂 So it kinda pushes me to just get it out the door haha

✨ [ This week on http://Nomads.com ] is finally live because @nerdontour asked me to finish it and then I in turn asked Claude Code to finish it 😝 It goes into http://nomads.com's members chat and summarizes what happened in the top channels this week It also checks your current location (for me Brazil) and puts that channel on top of the email, because that's most relevant for you If you click the channel it deep links you into that country's channel in Telegram, and if you click a user it goes to their web profile It's a fun way to stay up to date and also keep people involved in the chat (the core of the community) 😊👌 ✅ Another todo wiped off my list!

If you want to benefit from Claude taking down all the other companies Here's public companies you can buy stock of that own Anthropic: - Amazon - Google - Microsoft - Nvidia - Salesforce - SAP - Zoom

🇳🇱 Dutch freedom and tolerance is NOT a recent invention, it's been like that for centuries The Netherlands became a place where many of Europe's greatest scientific thinkers moved to to avoid persecution in the 1500s It's where the Pilgrims fled after persecution in England, and lived as a stopover before moving to America New Amsterdam famously was free, it didn't matter what religion, background or skin color you had, if you could do a job you could live there Dutch freedom was the base of freedom in America And we should never lose that to cultures that are not free and tolerant!

This shortcut has helped me ship way way way faster, I've been using it manually before but now I just run every Claude Code bypassing permissions I was getting sick of answering endless questions and giving permissions, just do the job already I'm 100x faster now echo 'alias cc="IS_SANDBOX=1 claude --dangerously-skip-permissions"' >> ~/.bashrc source ~/.bashrc

More AI-coded fun things 📕 Yesterday I asked it to build an ePub and PDF generator for my book http://readmake.com I still update and write on it, but every time I had to print the book (it's HTML) as a PDF, and then open it in Calibre (a very annoying app) to export it to ePub (the format Kindle uses), super annoying process So I asked it to build something that would just generate it hourly, so it's always fresh, but it was so fast to generate, that then I thought, what if I just generate it on-the-fly when people download the book, and then what if I add a personal watermark with their name and email (kinda like copy protection), and it did that too This would have taken me days to build and perfect it but now this was just a few hours I'm really just racing through my todo list with AI, it's great

Good for him! 🌈 Gay rights are one of the things the Dutch are pioneers in and I'm proud to be Dutch for that Traveling the world when you're Dutch you quickly see how the rest of the world isn't as tolerant as the Netherlands The last few decades the Netherlands has actually become less tolerant exactly by importing people from countries that hate gays, which I think they should have never Tolerance is a fundamental part of Dutch culture but we should not tolerate the intolerant "Unconditional tolerance leads to the destruction of a tolerant society"

My friend @thepatwalls just exited Starter Story, really happy for him "Most startups typically take between 6 to 10 years to reach an exit (acquisition or IPO)" It's cool to see lots of indie bootstrapped startups are finally being acquired about a decade after we started I remember when we all started doing indie startups a decade ago, people told me we should not call them startups, but just hobby projects By now I'm not sure you can say that, most indie founders I know who've been in it for a decade are rich, or "post-money" as you call it and don't need to work another day in their life They're all richer than the average VC funded founder who 1) have higher failure rates, 2) were left with 5-10% ownership after selling the rest to investors (unlike bootstrappers who own 100%) They're not billionaires though because for that you indeed need VC money, but below that yes you can reach it as a bootstrapped founder! Great to see this!

Nikita is on it!

Finally reaching limits for the first time Been shipping like crazy getting to the last remaining feature requests and bugs on http://ideasandbugs.com Went down from 30 yesterday to just 10 left today! I essentially copy paste the bug or feature requests in Claude Code and let it fix it and then test

This is my point exactly If you want low to mid-level devs, you can just pay $100/mo for Claude Code and get an AI coder that does the job usually better and faster and doesn't sleep or get sick AND save money! The only remaining part of the dev job that's actually worth it after AI is the top tier of devs who can do stuff that AI cannot Or those people who can lead AI to do things it wouldn't be able to do without that human leadership

I think HN is more negative lately since devs are feeling the force of AI pressing down on them The most active HN user base seems to be 9 to 5 devs and they're most at risk of AI taking their jobs A vibecoded app (OpenClaw) to create agents that roam the web that sells for $$$ within 3 months of coding it, it represents everything they that's threatening them, so of course they hate it

Re Added this to https://nomads.com/faq/whats-the-history-of-digital-nomads-2266018

You can but you have to pay them $500K to $1M+ per year now, that's the compensation of top talent in SF etc. Anything below that is generally sub-par If you do find someone good that works for $100K-$250K/y, they'll stay for a bit then leave to build their own startup ASAP

Okay this design was a bit too basic and samey maybe So I made another one in dark and lightOk why didn't I think of this before, we need a permanent UPPERclass hat too for if you've escaped

✨ Lots of mini improvements to Photo AI today I made this new model editor You can set a default prompt to add to any photo you take with your model, like here I set it to "wearing thin frame glasses and blue hair" and it will use that in every photo you take with that model Also now you can set specific key photos from your model's training set to use for taking pics, face photos are better and they get you higher resemblance and more real looking pics Photo AI automatically tries to set the best key photos but if you don't like them here you can adjust Both these ideas come directly from users on my [💡 Ideas + Bugs ] board 😊

There is nothing you can say at a conference, after 10+ hours of travel, bad sleep, and jet lag, to a half-empty conference audience that you can't just say in a tweet or record at home as a video and get literally 1000x more people watching it

I think it'll be more like: You chat to your LLM app and it'll just spin up an app with a UI if it feels the need Like you want to book a holiday apartment, it spins up a fancy Airbnb-like interface and books it for you You want to edit your photo, it spins up a simple but advanced easy-to-use photo editor The idea is that interfaces and apps become ephemeral to help you achieve whatever you want in a moment

Sam and Dario not being able to hold hands on stage in when the PM of India asks them too, at a summit about the future of AI and its safety, kinda implicitly shows they feel above governments, right? Like they really wouldn't care about world peace when it comes down to it, only winning? It's kinda freaky to me, I mean they are winning, but I don't know, you have to remember regardless of whatever level you're playing at (and they're playing at the highest level), entrepreneurship is still just a game? You can't take it so serious that you won't hold hands with your competitor right? Sundar being nice here only makes me more positive about Google

No because I talk directly with my sites Each of my sites (almost, I'm still migrating) is now on their own Hetzner VPS Like http://Hoodmaps.com for example, on that VPS I have Claude Code and https://github.com/RichardAtCT/claude-code-telegram I asked Claude Code to install that as a system daemon (so it starts on boot, and auto restarts if quits) A message comes in, it opens a Claude Code that resumes the previous session, writes whatever I said on Telegram and once Claude Code responds it sends it back to Telegram Very simple

💬 Having each of your sites/apps as a chat is such a logical idea once you do it It can message you if there's an error (I had this for years already, every server, PHP or JS error or unexpected problem ends up in the chat so I can fix it fast) But now being able to message it back and reply to those errors "ok fix it" and it ending up in Claude Code that immediately fixes it is makes it two-way Or just messaging it to build new features while you're going throughout the day (having coffee, lunch, going to the gym etc) It means I will finally be able to do my work on my iPhone from anywhere in the world Which @pmarca predicted 12 years ago would happen

Push from laptop local to GitHub which then webhooks and then server auto pulls takes 3 seconds for me That's 3 seconds I don't have for every change I make Coding in production on Claude Code takes 0 seconds and it only made a mistake once in 12 months which it then fixed

People keep asking this and isn't it obvious? You just message it to revert it back

Very soon, I will try today to connect the PHP error log to it

I mostly just code in production now with Claude Code, way faster than this local push stuff

RT luke ลุค Re As someone who’s lived in Thailand for 21 years and speaks the language fluently, I’ve often felt that the seniority system is one of the quiet forces holding companies back from real innovation. It shapes how people speak to each other, how decisions get made, and (more importantly) what never gets said. When hierarchy is rigid, it becomes harder for younger people to challenge older ones, even when they’re right. And it also makes it harder for older people to work fluidly under younger leadership without tension creeping in. I’m 49. I love startups. I love the pace, the experimentation, the sense that something new is being built. What I don’t want at this stage of my life is the stress of being a founder. I’m happy being an employee. But in a traditional hierarchy, a 49-year-old taking direction from a 25-year-old founder can feel socially awkward in ways that have nothing to do with competence. The younger founder may hesitate. The older employee may feel constrained. The friction isn’t technical...it’s cultural. That said, hierarchy alone doesn’t explain everything. Vietnam also understands SE Asian seniority and social order. The difference, IMHO, is historical pressure. Thailand has been remarkably stable for centuries. The last major wars on Thai soil were with Burma in the 18th century, culminating in the fall of Ayutthaya in 1767. Since then, despite political upheavals and skirmishes, the country has avoided the kind of prolonged, devastating wars that reshape societies at a structural level. Vietnam’s history is different. The American War from 1955 to 1975, followed by reunification under communism and later economic liberalization in 1986, forced the country through cycles of destruction and reinvention. That kind of sustained struggle creates urgency. And urgency often produces adaptability, ambition, and a tolerance for disruption. Thailand, by contrast, has something else: "sabai"... a word that loosely means comfortable, relax...

This looks great

No then you just @TermiusHQ in via your Tailscale

It looks so sick too, just having your website as a convo in your chat app that you can talk to! I only did it with Hoodmaps but my other sites are next Isolating each site to its own VPS was a good idea for this as it makes it a lot more secure

✨ A dream I had finally came true: I can now chat directly with my sites to build any feature or fix any bug just via Telegram I've been playing with OpenClaw for 3 weeks now and it's great but I was always too scared to run it on any production server And I was right a bit as @marckohlbrugge was able to hack it by social engineering and acting as if it was me, and with enough tries it believed him, and was able to modify the server, change SSH keys etc. of course I had it isolated properly on its own VPS and it didn't touch anything sensitive (as it should!) Marc then reported that bug to @steipete who patched it fast But I wanted to try something more basic and simple, and I think maybe more secure: to just connect Claude Code on my server to Telegram which would be hard locked to only messages from me So I installed claude-code-telegram by @RichardAtCT on the server and run it as a system daemon and it works really well The cool thing is that I was already using Telegram for server errors like this: > Photo AI - ❌ Random credits giveaway failed (Attempt 30/30) with an exception: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 5 database is locked So now I can just reply, "Ok fix this", and Claude Code on the server in production will try (and probably succeed) in fixing it In the video below I asked it to make show [🌳 Parks ] on the map by default on load, it did that, then I reloaded the page and it instantly worked One thing it still needs is sending actual messages while it's doing stuff which OpenClaw does really well, it's annoying to just wait while it says "Working..." but that's probably next

Okay now scoring 50,000+ tags on Hoodmaps with xAI for sentiment Then will combine that sentiment with scoring of place makers (good vs bad) to be able to make a heatmap of good and bad areas of a city

✨ Made a new robot for my site http://Hoodmaps.com that uses its data to find good and bad areas and mark them It collects: - crowdsourced drawing (like an area is tourist) - crowdsourced tags data like "Pickpockets everywhere" - positive places data like lots of trees, parks, playgrounds, cafes to work, coworkings - negative places data like lots of pawn, money transfer, payday loan shops, homeless shelters or strip clubs And then lets @xAI Grok 4.1 Fast use that data to figure out the best and worst areas of a city I just tested it and I think it works! 😊👌

They listened and fixed it! @WHOOP now counts strength workouts with the proper strain Before if you did light cardio it would give a higher strain score than a heavy weightlifting workout Will report back after today's workout to see the strain

User interfaces are increasingly likely a thing of the past?

✨ Added dark mode to my HTTP proxy at http://http.pieter.net That also makes it really nice to read stuff like Hacker News and other things in the evening on a Kindle The Kindle browser is really slow and a Kindle itself is just a super low specced device so using my HTTP proxy for vintage computers works perfectly on it It makes most sites just into text, removing the headers etc and only showing the body (like a Reader View) like Hacker News here: http://http.pieter.net/news.ycombinator.com

The real winner of the AI wars seems to be us, the users (for now) We get cheap models subsidized by trillions of dollars of funding

I keep realizing things flip so fast in AI you really can't predict who will win or lose Claude Code was leading for every dev, Anthropic were the good guys, OpenAI were becoming the bad guys buying up all the RAM I even switched from ChatGPT considering how ugly I felt the Times New Roman style serif font was Then OpenClaw shows up, becomes the most popular project since the new AI wave and instead of celebrating it, Anthropic decides to DMCA @steipete, this annoys him and he starts (or continues?) to promote OpenAI's Codex instead of Claude Code Then @sama and @finkd try to buy him and he goes with OpenAI and that's it and now OpenAI owns the narrative again

🇵🇹 Interesting guy to follow @henriquepreze He's my friend and he's building a massive legal weed farm in Portugal And fighting through anti-business regulation from both Portuguese socialists and EU bureaucrats And never ever complains 👌

RT Peter Steinberger 🦞 At the barber but claw is fixin’ it. This was a bit tricky since I don’t have convex auth configured on the machine claw runs, but it just ssh’ed into my MacBook Pro and deployed it there. Original tweet: https://x.com/steipete/status/2023440538901639287

I could work with 1 single Claude Code tab if it responded 100x as fast But now it takes 1-3 minutes sometimes Once that's 1-3 seconds it's fast enough for me to just keep going in a single tab But now I get blocked by how relatively slow AI is (I mean way faster than a human but you get me)

Keep going and don't give up! 💪 I think everyone is a bit jealous of @steipete right now, it'd be weird if you weren't!
