Day 35. The questions I asked on here, and what they changed.
@boringdev77 answered the first one on Aug 24 and named LinkedIn: every notification arrives, none of them are for anything that could not have waited a week. That is a notification nobody taps and nobody swipes away, which a tap-versus-dismiss ratio cannot score at all. It is the reason silence counts in Doorman. A row nobody touches becomes an answer once it is old enough. LinkedIn got measured and the number went under his comment: 50.0 percent, 18 arrived, 12 got a decision, 6 opened.
@ThorCommerce asked for a reboot test with notifications already queued, on the grounds that held rows survive a reboot but the alarm has to be registered again. Answering that put a claim from the code into public: that Doorman declares no boot permission. Checked against the installed build on Sep 18, that was wrong. The push SDK merges RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED in. The comments that said otherwise are corrected, and the reboot check goes into the device test script.
@BestAppAwards asked how Restore looks to someone who already paid. It has three outcomes and three different sentences. Found, and the Doorman is switched back on. Nothing on the account, which points at the Play account, since paying from a second Google account is the usual reason. Play unreachable, which says nothing has changed. A network error must never read as you never paid.
Thanks to the three of you.
The rest of the asking produced nothing, which is also worth saying. Whether you would publish your own notification numbers: zero replies on 29 views. Which apps should never be held: zero on 15. The never-held list got built from categories and system roles instead, and that question is still open.

Stop prompting Claude like it’s a junior developer.
Instead of saying
> "do this"
> "write the code"
> "fix this error"
start giving it the kind of context and direction you’d give a senior engineer.
Here are 7 copy-paste-ready prompts that consistently push Claude toward more professional, high-quality output:

The goal isn't to use AI to do more work.
It's to use AI to remove the work that shouldn't require you.
Automate the repetitive.
Systemize the predictable.
Save your human brain for the problems worth solving.

Distributed transactions get tricky when one service fails midway.
→ Order ✅
→ Payment ✅
→ Inventory ✅
→ Shipping ❌
→ Compensate ↩️
You don't rollback the entire distributed system.
You compensate the work that already happened.
how to create top 1% content in your niche on X:
feeds are flooded with slop daily, out of 10 posts you scroll there might be a single one you genuinely find valuable
so if you want to be seen and have people engage with your content, do this:
> actively research, study and BUILD stuff by yourself, don't recycle or repurpose what others are posting
> use AI to capture the value from that work: a skill like /value-capture that turns a full session into an Obsidian note, exactly how you did it, the challenges, what didn't work...
> turn these notes into content, repeat the process daily
this is how you become an authority people respect, and how you build an audience that's more likely to buy from you
then you set the trends, and everyone else recycles them

les pages que je crée avec claude rankent en 24h dans google
voici comment je fais
1/ je le force à chercher sur le web avant d'écrire une ligne
sinon il invente les prix et les fonctionnalités
2/ je regarde la serp avant de choisir le format
parfois google veut une page produit pas un article de blog
3/ je lui donne un template de page qu'il réutilise à chaque fois
résumé en haut quiz faq encarts à retenir
4/ je lui fais écrire mon avis à la première personne
c'est ce qui sépare une vraie marque d'un site ia générique
5/ je fais pointer au moins 5 liens internes vers la nouvelle page
c'est ce qui la fait découvrir et indexer aussi vite
6/ je lui fais générer les données structurées tout seul
aucun plugin à installer
7/ je supprime tous les tirets longs
c'est la signature la plus évidente d'un texte écrit par une ia
8/ j'ouvre la search console chaque semaine
et je retravaille à la main uniquement les pages qui montent
rien de tout ça n'est compliqué
la plupart des gens ne le scriptent juste jamais

tu veux le process complet ?

1/ follow
2/ like + signet
3/ commente "process"

AI won't replace developers. Developers who use AI effectively will outperform those who don't.
Learn the tools. Stay curious. Keep building.

Weekend checklist for developers:
☑️ Open laptop ☑️ Promise "just one commit" ☑️ Six hours disappear ☑️ Still debugging 😅
Happy Sunday!

Stop obsessing over your brand colors and go get a testimonial.

The reality is very different.
Social media makes AI look effortless.
One post says, “I built a billion dollar AI startup in 7 days.”
Another says, “AI will replace every developer next year.”
But building with AI is usually far less glamorous
Here’s what actually happens behind the scenes:
• Spending weeks solving problems nobody posts about
• Debugging model failures over and over
• Reading documentation more than posting screenshots
• Cleaning messy datasets for hours
• Testing prompts that fail most of the time
• Managing infrastructure, APIs, latency, and costs
• Realizing AI isn’t magic without strong fundamentals
• Learning math, logic, and system design one step at a time
The internet shows the highlight reel.
Real AI engineering is consistency, experimentation, and patience.

A moat is controlling the training data for the model used in a harness. Today, that's just the SOTA model/harness pairs.
You can post-training / fine-tune your made up names and patterns into a model so they're first class the way Opus thinks Claude Code's tools are gospel
It's hard, time consuming, and expensive.
Product/service opportunity here to help companies do this as more build harnesses internally.
