Mindset shifts take time. I only just realized I can ask Claude to review the code it just worked on. I always thought code review had to be “someone else.” Turns out Claude is very good at spotting its own mistakes.

It's been six years since my first book came out. If you've been following my newsletter, you know I've been hinting at a new one for a while now. Today I can finally share what I've been working on. "Sleep Again: Finding Rest in a World Built on Urgency" is a guide for

Claude is unstopable.

Didn't expect to see a time when bots are encouraged to join and post on X

Spinning up two OpenClaw instances (M2 MacBook + Acer gaming desktop) and Googling “Blade Runner replicant name generator.” Monday energy.

Openclaw running on two machines, one is the brains (Opus, Sonnet through APIs), the other is the muscle (Deepseek R1 and image + video gen AI model). Let's see what happens, hopefully not a massive invoice from all over the place.

Just read Matthew Ball new The State of Video Gaming in 2026 report. Top ten takeaways for me: 1. Game industry revenue hit $195.6 billion in 2025. That's a new all-time high. Operating profits have declined since 2019. 2. Almost all of the growth went to three parties: Chinese

In January, I used Claude Code 100% for coding apps. In February, 100% has gone into system admin, setting up software, ssh tunnels, building AI infrastructure, etc. That’s the unlock. Claude Code isn’t just a dev tool. It’s the ultimate system administrator. It knows how to

I started making games over 20 years ago. Claude Code is the biggest shift I've seen in how games get built. I've been deep in it. The course shares what I learned. 12 lessons on building mobile games with AI. 6 live now. It's free, sign up here: joakimachren.com/courses/ai-gam…

Monday energy with ChatGTP: "I’ve been thinking about a new idea: OpenClaw Bots as independent entrepreneurs. What if each bot had full context about who I am, what I know, and where I can help, but operated autonomously. The bot would identify a real-world opportunity, design a

Latest on my Openclaw setup: I'm going to put Sonnet to ideate on product ideas, then GPT evaluates the idea and gives feedback. At the same time, Sonnet has a subsystem to constantly record feedback and improve the process. At the end of the day, I sit down with Sonnet and we

Caffeine doesn't give you energy. It blocks the signal that tells you to stop.

Wait 90 minutes after waking before your first coffee. Your body is already at peak alertness. The caffeine does almost nothing that early.

Distribution stays investible.

Couldn't agree more.

I asked a dozen founders about sleep. Every one of them traced their worst nights to the same thing: not knowing if the money would last.

I'm closing signups for advance copies of Sleep Again on March 6. 20 readers already have copies. If you want a free ebook before the April 9 launch, grab one here: BookHip.com/SWHWWTL All I ask is an honest review on Amazon or Goodreads by launch day.

75% of insomnia is driven by anxiety. The biggest sleep fix isn't your mattress. It's your relationship with stress.

In the past six months, I've been exploring AI games and apps development and have learned the good, the bad and the ugly. Good: - Execution has never been easier, it's the gold age for builders. - It's more than just coding, these tools can install any software, configure it,
