    The best Reddit marketing usually doesn’t look like marketing. It looks like: • useful advice • honest experience • niche knowledge • helping someone solve a problem

    @yepitsme456 @goldensflowers it’s a looooong story, but in shorr cartoon network had a terrible release schedule for SU. new lore was dropped via events called “steven bombs” where we’d get 5 new eps and then a 5-12 month hiatus. entire arcs would be leaked on reddit months before officially airing

    @iraftopo @the_real_ori Your branding is honestly better than a lot of projects I see. The product is likely not the problem. The thing is, the right communities haven’t gotten there yet.” “Reddit is good for that because people trust recommendations more than traditional promotion.”

    @DavidWeinetayg Surprised Reddit wasn’t down more today tbh. If Google are actively redirecting search away from it with the nosebleed value it has, it can easily go down 50% over the next few weeks.

    someone on reddit used claude daily for 18 months and posted 11 things most people still ignore. i went through the list. these 5 actually change how you use claude: custom styles make one called "skeptical senior engineer." it pushes back on your code instead of agreeing with everything. takes 3 minutes. probably the biggest output jump on the list. projects drop your context, style guide, and past work in once. stop re-pasting the same context into every chat. people burn 100+ hours before finding this. default to sonnet 4.6 not opus 4.7. sonnet is faster and handles most tasks fine. save opus for the gnarly architecture problems. the limit complaints basically disappear. artifacts can call the api now you can build a working ai tool inside an artifact. people call it claudeception. someone built a client-brief generator that calls sonnet from inside an html artifact in an hour. wild. subagents in claude code "spin off a subagent to run the tests while i keep coding." parallel work that used to only happen in your head. almost nobody uses this. best line from the post: generic output means a generic prompt. skill issue, not a model issue. what claude feature took you way too long to find?

    @lippyncott I generally prefer the flag on the left to the right, but as far as flags go I'd still say right is decent. The problem with the Flag bro reddit is they use rules that exist for a specific context and apply those rules as universal. 🧵...

    @OWHistory @caffeineai I agree, the marketing need to start honestly, just ICP people are using this, you can tell by checking how twitter followers never goes up instead goes down, also no one talks on reddit as they do with replit. Also customer support damn it, no startup succeed without that!

    @MassiveCorgi It’s no personal anecdote. Lmao you just have no clue what’s going on. That’s the problem. You can literally search Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, instagram. People literally arguing the devs are wrong in their storytelling. Lmao. How pathetic you can’t just take your L.

    The AI tool that's actually changing how brands research customer psychology. Not for generation. For research. Claude and ChatGPT with web search. Used systematically. The traditional customer research process: 5-10 interviews. 100 survey responses. Maybe a Reddit deep dive if someone has time. The AI-augmented research process: Pull 1,000+ competitor reviews. Have the AI categorize them by sentiment, mentioned objections, and recurring language patterns. Scrape forum discussions for the product category. Have the AI identify the most common questions, frustrations, and decision criteria. Analyze your own support tickets. Categorize them by problem type. Identify the gaps between what marketing promises and what customers experience. Compare positioning language across the top 10 brands in your category. Identify what's claimed, what's repeated, what's underused. The output: a customer psychology brief that's based on thousands of data points rather than dozens. The hooks that emerge from this kind of research are specific in ways that intuition-based hooks aren't. The tools haven't changed creative work yet. They've changed the research that precedes creative work. The brands using AI for upstream research are producing more specific, more substantiated creative briefs. The downstream creative quality follows. How are you currently using AI in your research process versus your production process? #CreativeStrategy #DTCMarketing #AITools

    I've cancelled my Premium Basic subscription because I was getting more "views" on the free version, and I have no interest in Veblen goods, prefering value for money. I tried my article about the bankers taking £40 BILLION of our money, on Reddit, "r/AskEconomics" and - guess what? It was removed on the grounds of breaching rule V. which bans "soapboxing" and loaded questions. Judge for yourself. I have made a few updates in the article, to better explain my argument. If after reading what I have said, you still disbelieve that the bankers could have gatekeepers across social media, preserving their "golden goose," that is your inalienable right: I would like to offer my first post, on a subject which has troubled me for several years. I have now constructed a paradigm which makes sense of the inscrutable UK economy, and it requires the visualisation of the UK economy as two separate and distinct financial entities, with two different types of money. 1. The general economy, the one which includes M1, M2, M3 etc. and which I think of as the main, or primary economy, where we spend money to live. 2. The other, secondary economy, is a banking one, where digital money is created with the stroke of a computer key, and none of it appears in the UK money supply figures, because there is nothing to buy in the digital-money-creating-economy. It is only when digitally created money is transferred, in the form of bank loans, mortgages or student loans, from the banking sector - where it was created - into the real economy of M1, M2 etc. that the money changes from being digital, to becoming real, and the money supply automatically increases to include it. I do understand that commercial banks operate in the real economy but when they create money there are strict financial regulations and accounting mechanics dictating exactly how this money is controlled and deployed. “Commercial banks create new money through lending, but they cannot use this self-created money to buy arbitrary assets, fund their own operating expenses, or purchase corporate buildings. When a bank creates money, it does so by simultaneously writing a loan asset and a deposit liability on its balance.” ChatGBT This is easy in the UK where some 90% of all financial transactions are cashless. Sometime later, when the loan is repaid in full, the amount recorded under "loans receivable" has, in the bank's accounts, been reduced to zero, and it could be said that the "created money has disappeared." This - to me - "myth," that the created money disappears, is a controversial one that has been presented to me as a fact (which I did not understand), and to which I have been unable to articulate a sound challenge; until now. The problem was, and still is, that the repayment of the loan has, indeed, cleared the original loan creation, but, those same loan repayments - which cleared the "loans receivable" account at the bank, have ended up securely in the same bank's deposits. The amount of the loan has moved from the primary economy into the secondary, or banking- digital-money-creation sector, and the rules, above, state that the money cannot be used to buy arbitrary assets.. Our clever banking forebears overcame the problem with a sublime solution. They created a "reserve fund" at the Bank of England, they even called it their "reserve account" and used it as a receptacle for all real economy money that ends up, somehow, in the secondary, or digital economy. The money held in the reserve account does not count towards the money supply and this effectively "hides" the problem of the permanent transfer of real money into the digital economy. And yet we, the taxpayers, pay interest worth £40 BILLION A YEAR to the bankers, ostensibly for keeping their money in this reserve account. If you ask AI who owns this money it says: “Since the 2008 crisis, the BoE created large amounts of reserves during quantitative easing. When the BoE bought government bonds, it credited commercial banks’ reserve accounts with newly created central bank money.” AI got this information from Hansard. But why did QE result in the commercial banks receiving £875 billion paid into the BoE reserve account? The following, are the words used by the BoE to describe QE on its website: “The money we used to buy bonds when we were doing QE did not come from government taxation or borrowing. Instead, like other central banks, we can create money digitally in the form of ‘central bank reserves’.” So, if the BoE created the money digitally, why did the commercial banks get credited? The BoE were buying government bonds from the Debt Management Office, which is an Executive Agency of HM Treasury, in order to move extra money into the treasury, to help pay for the Banking collapse and the Covid pandemic. These two quotes, one from AI, sourced from Hansard, and one from the BoE website are mutually exclusive, they cannot both be correct. Returning to the subject of this article, the "BoE reserve account" neatly resolves the problem with "real money" leaking into the "digital economy," and uses this fund to balance commercial bank accounts each day, a laudable undertaking, but at what cost to the nation. Your instinct will be to think, they wouldn't do this, but please bear in mind that until recently UK university "economics courses," including my own master's course, were teaching that banks used the money in their deposit accounts to make loans, the so-called "fractional reserve banking," this is simply untrue. Banks create loans with digital money and transfer it into the real economy as a loan. Why did the universities do that? What were they helping to hide? My issue on all of this is: why are we paying interest to the banks on digital money that doesn't exist in the UK money supply and which the owner cannot spend on arbitrary assets? Of course they can't spend it, it is in the secondary, or digital-money-creation-economy, you can only spend money in the real economy, the digital economy is for creating money and lending it into the real economy. Interest is to compensate someone for lending money which could be earning income from trading. Money in the BoE reserve account cannot trade. This is our money – we own the BoE - and it would transform the UK economy. We could, for example raise the tax-free allowance immediately to around £25,000 per year. With potential huge increases in UK productivity.

  • workwithkrupal
    Krupal Chaudhary (@workwithkrupal) reported

    This Reddit thread called “how not to run an AI company” isn’t actually about bad engineering. It's about what happens when AI demand breaks infrastructure in real time. This is what the system looks like right now: -> Multiple Claude products showing repeated outages over 90 days -> Uptime fluctuating between 98–99%, but with visible instability spikes -> API, Code, Console, and enterprise tools all degrading differently under load -> Users split between “this is normal scaling” and “this is unacceptable for paid infra” And here’s the part people miss that this isn’t model failure. The AI still works. The system around it doesn’t stay stable under continuous demand. So you get this weird reality where: 1. The intelligence is state-of-the-art 2. The availability feels early stage startup 3. The usage feels enterprise critical And those three things don’t coexist cleanly yet. This is why these threads always look chaotic. Users think “this is broken” Engineers think “this is scaling” Companies think “this is success” And all of them are correct because the real bottleneck in AI right now isn’t capability. its predictability under load.

    @ShellTerminal @reyookah It always ends up going there regardless if it is green reddit or reddit vanilla. Just how the tribalistic nature works out. These communities based solely on shame culture are all crab buckets. We should all look down at those really toxic parts of identity groups in disgust.
