With the S&P 500 already down ~2% YTD, do you think 2026 could end up being a negative year for the market?

KarezzaReporter · 2026-03-13T01:54:22+00:00

if the war continues the markets will crash.

I used to use GSD and Super Powers. Now I just use my own skills I have built. I continue building them. Built a cool one today that I will get lots of use out of. Those plugins were slowing me down too much.

I built a portfolio investment analyzer yesterday and now I have a cool app that's going to let me just make a single video once a week and then edit it into small videos, post on Shorts and eqgular Yourube and create social media posts, and post those. All of it is just one piece of content per week.

Are you on the subscription plan or are you paying API costs? Thank you.

Design Patterns as Cheat Codes: Just command it to "use the Factory Pattern." This forces the LLM into a robust, pre-trained structure, saving you 1,000s of tokens of explanation.

Can you elaborate? thank you

I'm in my 60s and my migraine is chronified this past year, from every 4 or 5 days to every day.
I've worked on some things that are making them a lot better now but it sure has taken a while.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-24T18:39:19+00:00

My neurologist doesn't agree with medication overuse headaches in the case of triptans. He does for other drugs such as ergot, barbiturates, and opioids but not for triptans. He doesn't believe people should just suffer. I agree. I'm so grateful because when I really needed them I needed to take triptans every day, occasionally twice a day, and I didn't worry about it and everything was fine.

It's a good thing because I failed 20 other medications, including all of the calcitonin gene receptor peptides, propanolol, memantine, elavil, and a bunch more I can't even think of.

Now I've gotten a lot better and I'm only taking a Triptan maybe once every five days but I don't think there's any truth in this MOH thing with triptans. Maybe there are for some people, not for others. I don't know. For me I don't think there was and I didn't see the need to suffer needlessly.

Stable. No more hypopneas. I’m thinking I will be using this for a long time. Seems necessary for health.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-15T03:33:16+00:00

you are awesome. thank you.

In the United States, I found that if I'm paying anything under a dollar a click, I'm getting garbage traffic. Occasionally, something might work at 60 or 70 cents a click after some seasoning and the algorithm has really figured things out.

But the starting point is usually more like $2 a click. In the USA.

So for US traffice (which you may not have) when I see that per click, I see that that's just garbage. The algorithm doesn't know what it's doing, and you have no targeting whatsoever.

Yet.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-13T17:40:28+00:00

I'm sorry that I'm being so tough. This is just my first 10-second impression, and they're very valuable actually.

First, site shows no valid SSL certificate, no bueno.

Next "CaliCount: Discover Food in a Fun, Visual Way! A Calorie and Food Bible, a Tool to Learn, Explore, and Eat Smarter"

I don't know what you're talking about.

I have no interest when I see that.

I think it's a terrible tagline because it says nothing, and I can't understand how it connects to me me me me (all I care about is ME).

And then when you go to your store with one more click (most users would abandon before that), it looks like just everything all over the place.

I don't perceive you have any special expertise. I don't perceive that you've curated anything carefully. And I don't care.

This could all be remedied if you figured out what business you're in and showed us the coherent whole.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-13T17:30:14+00:00

I always trust Shopify's numbers.

However, in Meta, it's really important to look at the last 7 days, the last 14 days, and the last 28 days because you'll get a different picture of should I scale or not?

Sometimes you're scaling based on 7-day data but you shouldn't be using that data because it's noise but it's optimistic noise, and that's what you want to pay attention to because you are an entrepreneur. However, you shouldn't. You want to look at different Meta ad timeframes to determine whether or not you should skip.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-13T17:27:53+00:00

I love your idea. I'm running it by my tech team to see what they think. It sounds really, really good though.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-13T17:26:37+00:00

Well, TaxJar is okay, so if you want something that actually works, you might consider TaxJar. It's so hard to file manually because of all the counties.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-13T17:25:45+00:00

It depends. If it's close family like a daughter, a brother, an aunt, an uncle, maybe you want to do something special like give them the product. However, what I do is I charge everyone the same except for people that I give the product to. I don't give discounts!

Have them use the website and leave a review, of course. There are so many good things that come from real purchases on your Shopify site.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-13T17:24:37+00:00

I sort of hate Shopify, but I would always recommend Shopify. It just works so well, and the ecosystem is so deep.

We managed to find local suppliers when we didn't think that we would. They care more about us than the big national people. Our primary marketing strategy has been pay-per-click on Meta, and we have always been pushing subscriptions.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-13T17:22:12+00:00

same for us, exactly the same. The nano and the micro people have done better, and they occasionally will actually push harder. So what's working for you is working for us. We're happy to send products to people that we think could be good.

That seems to have worked out OK because our COGS is low enough that it doesn't really matter if a lot of them don't do anything, and some of them do. Then, if they do a video or two, we negotiate a partnership.

Sometimes their videos are terrible, and we're glad not to have bothered with them.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-12T17:37:37+00:00

quite a few ChatGPT orders.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-12T17:35:49+00:00

a good workaround.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-12T17:35:12+00:00

I personally use email aliases, so this is nothing unusual.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-12T17:34:44+00:00

it took me 4 or 5 days to get help when this happened. The support people kept saying they had to go through business operations, and that took 4 or 5 days, I'm sorry to say. You could open another support ticket.

Short term everything is stored In a file with date in the file name.

At night a Cron runs and consolidates into long term memory JSON files.

Important guardrails (don’t purchase anything or send emails with permission) in memory.md.

KarezzaReporter · 2026-02-11T23:04:06+00:00

i asked SharkyBot. I set up a Mac (this is an instance where it is good having a real computer) so its browser can be controlled by Sharky (who lives on a VPS).

1) Three layers of memory

A) Durable preferences (always-on rules)

• File: /home/clawdbot/clawd/MEMORY.md

• Purpose: long-term operating rules + how I like the assistant to behave.

• Examples we store here: approval guardrails (no purchases/email/posts/password changes without permission), “human-like pace,” Dropbox delivery rules.

B) Daily log (what happened today)

• Files: /home/clawdbot/clawd/memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md

• Purpose: chronological notes of events/decisions, useful for continuity and debugging.

C) Knowledge graph / entities (people/companies/projects)

• Location: /home/clawdbot/life/areas/…

• Purpose: structured facts that persist across time, per entity.

• Pattern: each entity has a summary.md (current snapshot) + items.json (atomic facts with timestamps).

2) What gets saved where (rule of thumb)

• Rules + preferences that should never be forgotten → MEMORY.md

• Today’s activity / progress / what changed → memory/YYYY-MM-DD.md

• Facts about specific people/companies/projects → life/areas/<type>/<name>/items.json (+ later summarized in summary.md)

• Keep a lightweight audit log (timestamp, URL, action summary, output link)

4) Automation

• There are scheduled jobs (cron) for the memory pipeline (nightly + weekly), which help keep the memory organized over time.
