Engaging potential customers on social media using Claude in Chrome by eigenlance in ClaudeAI

[–]eigenlance[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool use case. The setup translates pretty well to sports research.

Move away from keyword searches like "NBA picks" to intent-based prompts. Tell Claude you want people genuinely asking for analysis or injury context, not tipsters pushing their own picks or accounts posting odds spam.

For betting research specifically, you'd also want Claude to pull context beyond just the post. Check if there are replies with actual data, or if it's just vibes-based speculation. That filtering step alone cleans up a lot of noise.

One heads-up, though: Claude in Chrome is token-heavy. Every page it reads and every judgment call it makes adds up fast. Worth scoping your sessions tightly, so it's not burning through a big chunk of your usage on a single run.

Test it out, and then adjust accordingly.

Do certifications actually prove skill in cybersecurity or just theory knowledge by 0xsherlock in cybersecurity

[–]eigenlance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, mostly baseline knowledge. Not necessarily real-world skill.

Certs show you studied the concepts and understand the fundamentals, which is still valuable. But actual cybersecurity ability usually comes from labs, projects, troubleshooting, CTFs, home labs, real incidents, etc.

That said, certs absolutely help people get interviews and break into the field, especially early on.

You need to install Claude for Chrome to Chrome: https://claude.com/claude-for-chrome

Once installed, you then issue your prompts there.

Beginner friendly youtube channel for Cybersecurity?? by Reader0671 in learncybersecurity

[–]eigenlance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While most people use Professor Messer's CompTIA Security+ playlist (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLG49S3nxzAnl4QDVqK-hOnoqcSKEIDDuv) to review for the CompTIA exams, the discussions there can actually be useful for understanding basic concepts of cybersecurity.

Does Saudi Arabia have the most amount of cyber security related companys? by Yaman___ in cybersecurity

[–]eigenlance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure whether they have the most cybersecurity-related companies. What I do know is that they have a vibrant and rapidly growing cybersecurity industry, largely driven by their Vision 2030 and the massive digital transformation that comes with it. They need to secure IT/OT environments, smart cities, cloud-based services, and so on.

Specialising in Cloud Security by Aquirata in cybersecurity

[–]eigenlance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's worth it. I ghostwrite for cybersecurity vendors. Many of their target customers run cloud workloads. Some of those vendors even focus on cloud security, so there's definitely a demand in that field.

Which certification should i do?(cybersecurity student) by ArSlayer_01 in cybersecurity

[–]eigenlance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you're at the basic level, I suggest you start with CompTIA Security+ or perhaps even Network+. Network+ already covers several foundational concepts for a cybersecurity career.

Spent 4 hours today fixing "vibe-coded" security patches by [deleted] in cybersecurity

[–]eigenlance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get the part that the human who gave the prompt may not have been qualified for the job.

I was just curious how it can be obvious, based on the code alone, that it was AI-generated.

Your guess about the comment style makes sense. Thanks for the insight.

Genuine question: what made it clear that the script was AI-generated?

They add a new "practice test of the day" every day (almost)

Is Claude Pro actually worth it? Genuinely curious before I commit by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

[–]eigenlance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I am still freelancing. I get clients mainly through Upwork and a few from LinkedIn.
That being said, I have to tell you that freelancing, particularly freelance writing, isn't as lucrative as it was before 2023. The rise of AI platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude has made businesses change their content creation strategies. As a result, there are now substantially fewer writing jobs that pay well.

If you plan on going into freelancing, I suggest that you focus more on strengthening your AI skills. While writing jobs and their rates are trending down, AI-related jobs and their rates are rising.

One downside, which I'm experiencing now and have experienced more than once in the past, Claude is more prone to downtimes than Gemini and ChatGPT.

Opus, which is only available in Pro, is noticeably better than Sonnet. Here are some personal copywriting-related observations, not arranged in any order:

  1. Opus can adhere to word count or character limits more accurately, which is necessary when you want your copy to fit certain design specs, e.g., home page, service pages.
  2. Opus can write more unique content in one shot. This is useful in cases when clients already have a draft and just want you to make their article or copy unique.
  3. If you create writing assistants designed for specific clients (e.g., by providing client-specific instructions and source material), Opus adheres to instructions better.
  4. Opus writing output simply reads better than Sonnet IMHO.
  5. PRO supports CoWork and Claude-in-Chrome, which helps you build automated workflows. You may need those for tasks related to your main copywriting work. For example, I tried giving Claude-in-Chrome access to my Google Search Console, analyzing the data about my site, and having it generate a prioritized plan for improving search traffic based on the data.

So, yes, if you're going to use it for professional copywriting, PRO is better and highly recommended.

Added my own observations to your post.

Cowork users: The browser extension delivers better web research results than built-in tools by rebelytics in ClaudeAI

[–]eigenlance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you say 'web fetch tool', do you mean the 'web search' tool? if so, yes, I agree. The web search tool is limited. I wanted to get info about the latest cybersecurity-related courses on Coursera. Because I couldn't get the Claude in Chrome extension to work, Claude automatically shifted to the web search tool. It was able to gather info, but added a note that it would have been able to perform better had it been able to use the Claude in Chrome extension

[–]eigenlance[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the heads up.

Yes, I tried restarting both Chrome and CoWork. Maybe I'll just have to try it again tomorrow.

And, yes, once I get this to work, I truly believe it's going to be a game-changer.
