As the NBA season came to an end this weekend, the streets of NYC lit up with millions of diehard Knicks fans.
And although nothing can replace that feeling of being surrounded by fellow crazed fans, what happens now that the season is over?
What if you could keep engaging with your favorite players any time you wanted? You could form a unique 1:1 relationship with them through their avatar?
That’s what we’re working on. A way to reshape how fans interact with their favorite athletes, celebrities, and IP characters...to extend the relationship beyond just the streets, the bar, the arena, or the feed.
@adage featured Genies in a write-up on how AI and data are enhancing the player <> fan relationship across sports.

Technique 1: Constraint-Based Prompting
Most prompts are too open-ended. Engineers add hard constraints that force the model into a narrower solution space, eliminating 80% of bad outputs before they happen.
Template:
Generate [output] with these non-negotiable constraints:
- Must include: [requirement 1], [requirement 2]
- Must avoid: [restriction 1], [restriction 2]
- Format: [exact structure]
- Length: [specific range]
Example:
Generate a product description for wireless headphones with these constraints:
- Must include: battery life in hours, noise cancellation rating, weight
- Must avoid: marketing fluff, comparisons to competitors, subjective claims
- Format: 3 bullet points followed by 1 sentence summary
- Length: 50-75 words total

1. The Beginner Roadmap
"Teach me the basics of [Insert Skill] in a simple learning path. Explain what I need to learn first, what comes next, and what I should ignore in the beginning. Give me a short definition for each step so I understand the idea before I practice it."
Revisiting this old post from @ashleymcnamara as I’m seeing this happening again more and more lately. Please take care of yourselves people and know when you need a break.

Claude Sonnet 4.5 is the closest thing to an economic cheat code we’ve ever touched but only if you ask it the prompts that make it uncomfortable.
Here are 10 Powerful Claude prompts that will help you build a million dollar business (steal them):
10 years ago, I presented a security focused talk called Threat Modeling My Wife about implantable pain management devices. That talk was Sarah’s idea. She wanted to make sure the device was safe to implant in her. This year, my kids and I buried Sarah. #CRPS #Dysautonomia #EDS
Hey @WestinNanea @ClubWestin @Vistana how can I donate my StarOptions points for Nanea to those displaced in #Lahaina? Rather than have visitors, those rooms should be going to those in need.
Hey Tom, how about you take it over and I’ll take the desk next to you again. #myspacereunion
Welcome to the Star Wars family Moses Ingram. Let the haters and racists leave since they clearly never understood what #StarWars was about.

Stress is a big factor in the health of InfoSec and AppSec people. Know when you need a break and please take care of yourselves.
We need to continue focusing on making security easier for people & not continuing to try and teach people to be more secure. The average person does not get it but they should not be ridiculed for it. It’s a fun challenge to secure things while making them easy to use.
Happy to hear that. Now let’s get the firefighters more support so they can knock this fire down. Where are the C130s?
#PalisadesFire #topanga Authorities have arrested an arson suspect and they believe they have the right guy in custody.
Who else would have thought of using a turntable to fast forward and reverse through VM snapshots and states? RIP @dakami
