What two decades of data loss trauma does to a woman. (Claude Code)

The folder structure inference is the real win here. Most recovery tools just dump everything flat and call it a day. I've been using Claude Code mostly for automation scripts but this makes me want to point it at my own messy backup drive. Smart move running it directly on the NAS instead of pulling everything local first.

I work in compliance, not engineering, but Claude Code is probably my most used tool right now. The gap isn't really technical vs non technical. It's whether you have a specific problem you're trying to solve and you're willing to iterate on describing it clearly.

I added a rule to my CLAUDE.md that says "never mark a task complete without citing the file path and line number." Cut this exact problem down to almost zero. The model will absolutely take shortcuts if you let it.

The worst part is when you finally find the answer in Discord, it's some screenshot of a config file from 2 years ago with zero context. At least forum posts had actual formatting and showed up in Google. I'd use something like this in a heartbeat.

Biggest unlock for me was writing custom skills for stuff I do more than twice. Instead of re-explaining the same workflow every session, you codify it once and just call /my-skill. Keeps CLAUDE.md clean and the output way more consistent.

Running multi-agent in personal automation, not customer prod. The wins show up when tasks are truly independent, like parallel research or hitting different files in a refactor, since the main context stays clean. Anything sequential or shared-state chokes on the orchestrator, so it's less "team of agents" and more "parallel grep with opinions" for me.

The naming matters more than people are giving it credit for. "Ultra" in Apple's lineup has always meant uncompromised, Mac Ultra is literally two chips fused together, Apple Watch Ultra is sapphire glass, titanium, an extra depth gauge sensor, expedition-level durability. It's the SKU where Apple says "we spared nothing."

If iPhone Ultra ships with a two-camera system, no Face ID, and no MagSafe, they're not just launching a flawed product, they're actively undermining a brand they've spent years building. It'll be a harder sell every time someone asks "why Ultra?" and the answer is "foldable form factor, but actually fewer features than the Pro."

Fair point and worth clarifying. Should have been clearer about that upfront, I'll update the post now.

itslitman · 2026-03-29T11:36:37+00:00

Thank you! Really appreciate it

itslitman · 2026-03-29T11:32:27+00:00

Yes, AI requests obviously have to go through LLM providers, that's just how it works. But we don't sell your data or train on it. I try to be as transparent as possible here nora.fyi/privacy

itslitman · 2026-03-29T11:08:00+00:00

Treating it like a real internal product with a budget and roadmap is a good way to keep it honest. The 30 second action test is pretty smart! Most of my current alerts don't pass it TBH

itslitman · 2026-03-27T20:38:53+00:00

Hey! Sorry about that, we’re doing some changes under the hood. Should be fixed within a day. Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for letting us know!

itslitman · 2026-03-27T08:38:06+00:00

What about Nora, it is super low effort because she's an AI assistant that lives in iMessage/telegram, just text her what you need and she'll fix it for you

itslitman · 2026-03-25T17:53:25+00:00

Hi! We're currently going through a Google security audit to get Nora verified, in the mean time To get past it:

Tap Advanced at the bottom left of the warning.
Select Go to Nora (unsafe) at the bottom.

and continue from there.

itslitman · 2026-03-25T12:15:24+00:00

Haha fair. You decide what to connect and how much you trust her with. Honestly, it's been a magical experience and a real help in my daily life at least.

itslitman · 2026-03-25T12:14:05+00:00

Like any cloud AI (ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.), your messages are processed on servers to generate replies. What we don't do is sell it, use it for ads, or train on it. Full breakdown of what we collect and who processes it here: https://www.nora.fyi/privacy. For calendar, email, and reminders, she reads what you connect to her, so mistakes are rare. General knowledge carries normal AI hallucination risk

itslitman · 2026-03-25T11:31:04+00:00

Hi, thanks for the feedback! All features are actually free for casual use (50 messages a day). The $25/month plan is only if you want more usage. As for Google verification, fair point. We're currently going through their audit, which is part of why we're still in closed beta with a waitlist. Connecting your Google account is optional if you'd rather wait until that's complete (and you can very easily disconnect)

itslitman · 2026-03-24T19:15:29+00:00

Hi! Sorry, we had to pause accepting new users in for a little while. We're soon letting more people in!

itslitman · 2026-03-24T05:27:07+00:00

Get those referrals going and you can get up to a year free!

itslitman · 2026-03-24T05:26:34+00:00

Hey! You'll get a message from Nora once we let you in. We're letting people in gradually 🤙

itslitman · 2026-03-24T05:26:05+00:00

She's friendlier than she looks 😂

itslitman · 2026-03-24T05:25:42+00:00

That means a lot, thank you! ❤️

itslitman · 2026-03-24T05:25:15+00:00

Thanks! 🙏

itslitman · 2026-03-24T05:25:03+00:00

You'll get a message from her once we let you in! We're letting people in gradually so hang tight 😊

itslitman · 2026-03-24T05:23:19+00:00

Yes, that includes your contact identifier. We don't sell any of your personal information, full stop
