  @claudeai @bcherny @bcherny did you guys release the Claude design mcp and removed it the same day? I was trying to connect to Design from Claude and just kept getting error messages. Also saw a Reddit user asking the same.

  Why My Digital History Is Triggering Active Hacking Attempts on Anyone I Interact With (The Cost of Pirated Software) Since 2011, I had a habit of digital hoarding - collecting and testing cracked games and expensive enterprise software (AutoCAD, Autodesk, Ansys, Adobe) just to see them run. In college and later in my professional life, I freely distributed these terabytes of pirated software to friends and colleagues, completely unaware of the massive digital footprint and security liabilities I was creating. By signing into these cracked builds with my personal email, my credentials were leaked to respective servers and weaponized through data breaches, allowing bad actors to tie my email, unique username handles, phone number, and social media profiles together. The real-world consequences started falling like dominoes. In 2017, a friend’s startup was targeted with Google account hacks and an Autodesk audit after their residential IP address registered as a business entity using cracked software from me. When I joined the rocket startup AgniKul Cosmos in 2019, I distributed these software packages again. The fallout was severe: the entire team began receiving targeted, unknown messages on LinkedIn and WhatsApp phishing calls; our Wi-Fi became unusable unless restarted; and our founder's email was compromised to spam the team, forcing me to wipe and reinstall every office machine. I later found out the startup faced massive licensing fines after audit visits. Even after moving to a spacecraft design startup, the exact same disruptive patterns followed. The targeting escalated heavily during the 2020 lockdown. After noticing a suspicious Microsoft account login alert that perfectly correlated with an Argentinian "ethical hacker" visiting my Premium LinkedIn profile, I confronted him directly via InMail. That very night, a coordinated wave of login alerts hit my Reddit, PayPal, and other social media services. Because I use a consistent username across platforms like Twitter/X and LinkedIn, these actors have mapped my entire network. They’ve tracked my investor interactions, used malicious links in bio pages to harvest my home IP addresses (forcing me to rely on a VPN to restore normal speeds), and targeted my family members. Because of this relentless surveillance, I keep my current venture strictly in stealth mode and refuse to update my employer details on LinkedIn to shield my current team. This is a public apology and a massive heads-up. Recently, this targeting has shifted outward to anyone I publicly engage with. Whomever I interact with, reply to, or tag on Twitter/X is immediately seeing a surge in suspicious login alerts and hacking attempts on their own accounts. If you are interacting with me publicly, please enable robust 2FA, monitor your active login sessions, avoid clicking any random links, and stay highly vigilant. My past digital hoarding has turned into an active security vector, and I am sharing this so you can protect your data before they target you next.

  “Oh I asked chatgpt” what a loser look it up on Reddit where someone probably asked the same question 7 years ago you slimy chud. Look it up on a proper browser. Read a book. Or, maybe unfathomable to some, you could use your own thinking and problem solving skills!

  @buildwtim From my experience, Reddit was actually the first platform ever where I got my first clients basically. But it's really notorious in terms of self-promotion or even if it seems like that you are helping other people out with their problems by providing the solution that you have developed, they can ban you straight from the bat. But the first users came from Reddit and the second approach was actually using SEO and more specifically inbound SEO coming up with ideal primary and secondary keywords, making resource pages, article pages and recently I also made use case pages, using internal linking. And directory backlinks is also a good way to go.

  @tylergilfoster Oh so if I get one now it might not have the horrible layer change issue that even a replacement copy didn’t fix? (Was real lovely when Criterion told me it was a *me* problem when there was a whole reddit thread I linked them to of people with the exact same problem!)

  Most people install Claude. A few people build a system around it. That's where the gap starts. The weird thing about Claude Projects is that they're deceptively simple. You create a Project. Upload a few files. Add some instructions. And it feels like you've understood the feature. I thought the same thing. Then I started seeing people getting outputs that were dramatically better than mine. Not 10% better. Not "slightly cleaner." I'm talking about work that felt like it came from an entirely different model. Same Claude. Completely different results. After digging through dozens of Reddit threads, creator workflows, power-user setups, and making most of the mistakes myself, I realized something: The people getting the most out of Claude aren't better prompters. They're better at structuring Projects. A few examples: → They don't rely on custom styles for consistency. Everything important lives in Project instructions. → They aggressively remove outdated knowledge files instead of letting stale context quietly degrade answers. → They start fresh chats far more often than you'd expect instead of dragging around 200-message conversations. → They use Sonnet for almost everything and save Opus for work that genuinely needs it. → They explicitly tell Claude to say "I don't know" instead of rewarding confident guessing. → They separate Projects by objective instead of throwing everything into one giant workspace. → They upload examples of their own writing instead of typing "write like me." → They understand context doesn't magically transfer between Projects. None of these tips are groundbreaking on their own. That's what makes them dangerous. They're small enough to ignore. But together they completely change how Claude behaves. I turned the biggest lessons into a visual cheat sheet because I wish someone had handed this to me on day one. Would've saved me weeks of trial and error. If you're already using Claude daily, you'll probably recognize at least one mistake you're still making

  The Last Signature I. Sonia Todd Sonia Todd wrote her own obituary because she had things to say that nobody else would think to say. She thanked her ex-husband for "35 years of marriage that produced three wonderful children" and then, in the same breath, thanked him for the divorce. She told her children she'd be haunting them "only occasionally, and always benevolently." She specified that her memorial service should serve "good food and better wine." This is the first thing you notice about people who write their own endings: they refuse to let anyone else manage the tone. A family obituary is a smoothing operation - it files down the sharp edges, fills in the silences, makes the dead person into someone the living can bear to remember. Sonia Todd's version kept the edges. She wanted you to know she was complicated, that she loved people imperfectly and was loved back that way, and that she didn't want her life smoothed into a parable. She was sixty-two. She died of cancer. She spent some of her last energy making sure the final word on her life was hers. --- II. Jane Lotter Jane Lotter was sixty. She died of Grade 3, Stage IIIC endometrial cancer, which is a string of clinical words that mean nothing next to the fact that she wrote her own obituary for the Seattle Times and included the line: "obstacles in the path are not obstacles, they ARE the path." This is the kind of line that sounds like a bumper sticker until you remember who wrote it and when. She wrote it knowing she was dying. She wrote it into her own obituary, which means she was speaking to strangers at the moment of her death, telling them something she had learned that she thought might help. That's not sentimentality. That's transmission. That's someone handing you a thing she found useful on her way out. Her obituary is short. It doesn't list her medical history. It doesn't catalog her grievances. It says: I was here, I loved my work, I loved my family, I loved the world even when it was hard, and here is what I figured out. The obstacles are the path. Not in front of the path. Not blocking the path. Are the path. She didn't write it for the living to read at her funeral. She wrote it for the living to read while they were still alive. --- III. Walter George Bruhl Jr. Walter opened his obituary with a parody of the Dead Parrot sketch. "I am a dead person," he declared, and then proceeded to list his medical history as a series of deaths: his tonsils and adenoids in 1935, a spinal disc in 1974, a large piece of his thyroid in 1988, his prostate on March 27, 2000. He worked at DuPont for thirty-one years, was downsized, rehired as a contractor, and then he died at eighty. The obituary is 679 words. It is very funny. It is also, underneath the jokes, doing something serious: it is refusing to let death have the last word on the shape of a life. Walter didn't want his obituary to be a recitation of sorrow. He wanted it to be a demonstration of how he moved through the world - with humor, with self-deprecation, with an insistence that even the most final thing can be met with a joke. He asked for no flowers. Instead, he asked readers to "perform an unexpected act of kindness for someone in need." This is the punchline that isn't a punchline. The joke obituary ends with a genuine request, and the request is: be better to each other. His grandson posted it on Reddit after he died. It went viral. Walter, dead at eighty, got the last laugh and then some. --- IV. The Signature These three people did the same thing, differently. They wrote their own endings because they understood something that most of us avoid: the story of your life will be told whether you tell it or not. If you don't write the last chapter, someone else will. And they will get it wrong. Not maliciously, usually. Just wrong. They will smooth you. They will make you nicer or sadder or simpler than you were. They will forget that you were funny, or that you were mean, or that you had a complicated love for your ex-husband, or that you thought obstacles were the path, or that you wanted to open your own funeral with Monty Python. Writing your own obituary is not morbid. It is the opposite of morbid. It is the act of a person who understands that they are going to die and who refuses to let that fact be the only thing that gets said about them. It is the last creative act. The final edit. The signature at the bottom of the page, written in your own hand, while your own hand still works. Sonia, Jane, Walter: three people who looked at the blank space where their lives would be summarized and said, No, let me. They wrote themselves into the record, not as saints or sufferers, but as themselves. Sharp-edged. Funny. Complicated. Alive, right up to the last word. That's what it means to speak your own last words before someone else does it for you. It means refusing to die twice - once in your body, and once in the story.

  Here's another ecom subscription lawsuit that includes a PR lesson. Public Goods was sued today for allegedly enrolling customers in subscription memberships without their knowledge. The complaint includes a screenshot from a Reddit thread. In the thread, Public Goods says, "our previous membership model wasn't always as clear as it should have been." It's natural to want to apologize, but there are ways to address issues without making harmful admissions that an adversary will use against you. Not that the case will hinge on that admission, but it's what you would call a "bad fact."
