You use Claude every day. You open claude.ai. You type a question. You get an answer. You start a new conversation. You type another question. You’ve been doing this for months — maybe longer. Every conversation starts from zero. Every conversation requires you to re-explain your job, your context, and your preferences. You use Claude the same way you’d use Google search, read, leave. You’ve never created a Project with persistent files and custom instructions. You’ve never published an Artifact a live, shareable document, dashboard, or app. You’ve never asked Claude to build you a presentation in Slides and export it as a PowerPoint. You’ve never connected Gmail, Google Drive, or Slack so Claude can read your actual data. You’ve never set a Scheduled Task so Claude works while you sleep. You’ve never used Claude in Chrome to act inside your browser. You’ve never used Computer Use to let Claude control your desktop. And you’ve never turned on Memory so Claude remembers who you are across every conversation. A product manager who’s been using Claude for 14 months and has configured every feature Anthropic has shipped told her team something during a workflow review that made 6 people reconfigure their Claude accounts that afternoon. “You’re all using Claude as a chatbot. You type, it answers, you leave. Claude stopped being a chatbot 12 months ago. It’s a workspace now. It builds documents you can export to Word. It builds presentations you can export to PowerPoint. It designs mockups you can export to PDF. It connects to your Gmail and reads your actual emails. It connects to Google Drive and edits your actual documents. It browses the web through your Chrome browser with your logins. It controls your computer screen clicking, typing, navigating apps. It runs tasks on a schedule while you’re away. It remembers everything you’ve told it. And last week it started building live dashboards and animated explainers. You’ve been typing questions into the most capable AI workspace ever built and reading the answers like it’s a search engine.” She showed them 11 Claude features that transform it from “I ask and it answers” into a persistent, connected, creative AI system. Here’s every hidden Claude feature most users miss 🧵

Apple just released the iPhone 18 Pro Max. The first iPhone with a variable aperture camera. The first iPhone with Pro Controls that give manual control over aperture, shutter speed, and white balance. A 2nm A20 Pro chip with a Dual 16-core Neural Engine double the AI processing power of the previous generation. Up to 45 hours of video playback. 5 minutes of charging for 7 hours of use. Siri AI with onscreen awareness. And iOS 27 with Liquid Glass, the biggest visual redesign since iOS 7. Millions of people bought it. Most of them will take it out of the box, transfer their old phone, and use it identically to the iPhone they replaced same apps, same layout, same camera at default settings, same Action Button set to silent mode, same Camera Control button pressed once to open the camera and never used for anything else. A professional photographer who’s been shooting on pre-production iPhone 18 Pro Max units since August and has tested every camera feature Apple built into this phone told his assistant something during a shoot that reframed everything about how the iPhone 18 Pro Max is meant to be used. “Everyone who bought this phone bought a camera that rivals a $2,000 mirrorless setup. Then they open the Camera app, tap the shutter button, and let computational photography make every decision. They never touch the variable aperture the first physical aperture control in iPhone history. They never open Pro Controls to set shutter speed manually. They never adjust the new texture and grain settings in Photographic Styles. They never customize Camera Control beyond ‘press to open camera.’ They never reprogram the Action Button. And they never ask Siri AI to do the things it can actually do now read what’s on screen, understand context, and take action across apps. The iPhone 18 Pro Max isn’t a better iPhone. It’s a different category of device. And 90% of owners will use it as a slightly faster version of their old phone.” He showed them 11 iPhone 18 Pro Max features that most owners will never discover on their own. Here’s every hidden iPhone 18 Pro Max feature most owners miss 🧵

Most people hear “satellite internet” and picture a dish bolted to a rooftop. A technician on a ladder. A $500 installation. A cord running through a wall. Starlink Mini weighs 2.4 pounds. It fits in a backpack. Next to your laptop. It sets up in under 5 minutes. No technician. No roof mount. No installation. No cord through a wall. You take it out of your bag, unfold the kickstand, point it at the sky, and you have broadband internet. Anywhere on Earth. 50-200 Mbps. From a satellite constellation 340 miles above your head. On a device the size of a laptop and lighter than a bag of flour. A digital nomad tested it across 20+ locations cafés in Lisbon, campsites in Norway, a ferry in Greece, a mountaintop in the Alps, a beach in Bali, and a train through the Japanese countryside. The same satellite internet that powers rural homes in Montana in a backpack he carried through airports. “I pulled it out of my bag at a campsite in northern Norway. No cell signal. No Wi-Fi. No buildings for 30 miles. Set the Mini on a picnic table. Pointed it at the sky. 5 minutes later: 95 Mbps. I joined a Zoom call from above the Arctic Circle. The client didn’t know I was sitting on a rock in the wilderness. They thought I was in an office. The office was a backpack.” Here’s everything Starlink Mini does who it’s for, who it’s not for, and why most people don’t know it exists 🧵
