We just broke 40k Members, in less then 4 months... To say I am honored and blown away is an understatement. I feel like yesterday @Matthew Creamer quit his job to sleep on my floor and bust out 15 hour days to build out content, structure and anything else I thought you all would need to make this community worth it. But at the end of the day there is only one thing for me to say. THANKYOU None of this, and I mean NONE of this would be remotely worth it if it wasn't for you all. To list and tag everyone that have contributed so much valuable not just to this community but to me would be nearly impossible. Thank you to every single one of you. Thank you for commenting and helping out on posts Thank you for sharing the wins you have gotten both at home and professionally. Thank you for believing in me and what I am building septically those of you who have been around since the beginning (you know who you are). I cannot tell you how happy my heart is to get in front of you all and teach, talk, ask questions and even learn a lot myself. It is a dream come true to become someone that people can learn from; to share my thoughts and have those very thoughts change the way people live their lives and do their work. It's only the beginning too, I can't wait to see what the rest of the year has in store, and I promise to keep building, working and recording for you all. From the very very very bottom of my heart.....Thankyou! Thankyou to every single one of you reading this and for being part of such an amazing community.

Drop your biggest win from your projects last week, or if you're stuck on something, what’s the one thing you’re struggling with right now? For me, my big win is that I finished the mechanics of my app and now I’m just getting into the detail of the design. But my biggest struggle right now is the format. My husband is the tech guy with all the development know-how, and he thinks I should start it as a web app first to let people try it out before dealing with the nightmare of building a phone app and dealing with Apple and Google specs. Development-wise he is totally right, but I know my niche. My app is for hair stylists who are facing burnout, and honestly, most of them aren't tech-savvy at all. The app is supposed to cut through the noise and help them use tech without the stress, so if I make them go to a website every day, it's just not going to happen. They aren't going to figure out how to pin a website to their home screen, and I feel like launching as a web app might just kill the momentum completely. Let’s see where everyone else is at with their wins and struggles, and if anyone has any thoughts on the web vs phone app dilemma for non-techy niches, let me know!

When deploying an ICM folder structure to an actual client, asking them to drop it into their claude seems reasonable for us techy people, but some of my clients are not technical enough to even do that. What other options are people using? I'm a traditional web app guy, so deploying a cloudflare worker with some backend code and a database etc is what I would traditionally try and do. That model is not as clear cut as a winner as it used to be! Is it time to look at agentic systems to be able to deploy ICM so my clients can actually use it in their day to day? Or do we simply train them up to use claude? Or is there something else that people are doing?

I kept watching Jake's videos, reading the ICM paper, Karpathy threads… and forgetting most of it a week later. Learning the wrong layer, but with my own knowledge. So I built the thing the content kept pointing at. Not a notes app. An ICM workspace for my own learning. The rules (sound familiar?): - raw/ is immutable. Transcripts, PDFs, papers. The LLM reads, never edits. - wiki/ is the LLM's workspace: entities, concepts, sources, analysis, overview. - index.md = catalog. log.md = append-only timeline. Welcome.md = the schema the agent follows. - Claude Code writes. Obsidian is the front-end. I read; it writes. - Every claim links to a source. No orphan facts. One ingest: I drop a transcript in raw/ and say "ingest it." A single 22-min Van Clief video cascaded into ~10 linked pages in one pass (a summary, 2 new entities, 5 updated pages, index + log), cross-linked, with contradictions flagged rather than silently resolved. After ~3 months: ~35 sources, 84 interlinked pages, every claim cited. No vectors, no RAG. The folder path is in the memory, and I can read every byte. I'm using the method to learn the method. Folders over agents, pointed at my own head. (I'm starting an AI-implementation practice in Brazil built on ICM, so this doubles as the knowledge base behind my client work.) Schema's attached if you want to start your own. What would you ingest first?https://github.com/jarantes-prog/icm-knowledge-vault

Jake and I made it across the pond. We're here for London Tech Week all week. We got invited out for this one, which still feels surreal to type. We've got multiple pitch slots in front of investors over the next few days to talk about what we're building at Eduba and where this community is headed. Big moments lined up. Big rooms. Big swings. 🚀 If you're at the conference, DM me! Would genuinely love to meet anyone from the community in person. We'll be all over the Techscaler booth and floating between sessions. Even if it's just a hello and a handshake, hit me up. 🙏 And if you've got a second, send some good energy our way this week. We're about to walk into some rooms that could change the trajectory of what we're building. Wish us luck. Light a candle. Whatever your version of that is. We'll take all of it. Now to the real reason you're here. 👇 ---- 👇 🏆 7-DAY LEADERBOARD WINNER: @Bas Rosario 🏆 🔥 Bas just won it AGAIN. Back-to-back.
