Indeed the opportunity to design for YOUR mind and brain is a fantastic one, and people who can seize it will flourish I think
I am still pretty convinced that outside of very mechanistic workflows, stuff like "prompt libraries" are nearly useless unless you impress upon people that they need to rewrite them for their brains. Because not only are you not exercising, but you're accepting somebody else's brain-assumptions
So many developers have sent me that Anthropic skills/mastery case study that I realized I should ungate what I *already wrote* about this: beginning principles to design workflows that work *with* your mind, not against it, & protect your problem-solving

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

Detained by ICE, two women became first responders during agent’s seizure
The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

Did you know you can nominate people for the Nobel Peace Prize?
Some thoughts:
1. The deadline for nominating a person or group for the Nobel Peace Prize is Feb. 1.
2. History professors are qualified nominators.
3. The people of Minnesota have been awe-inspiringly peaceful in the face of state violence.
4. He would be so mad.

The drug companies should be paying for this too but they truly do not care even tho it could make $ for them very soon.

The “pivot to video” has been a nightmare. I can read faster than the narrator is speaking; let me read the words for myself!
I just clicked on a link on the NYT app (I know, I know) and instead of an article it was a video. Didn’t they used to make it clear you were choosing to watch a video? Honestly, expecting to read and instead being forced to watch feels like the worst bait & switch.

Sex toys are being hurled on the court at WNBA games. A cryptocurrency group says they're behind it – and planning for more.
The group says the acts are "pranks" intended to draw attention to their crypto meme coin and not meant to disrespect women athletes.
