Hi everyone I don’t really post on here but just wanted to say I using what I’ve been learning from here and not knowing anything on ai I finally built my first pipeline system to make content on YouTube for me it’s been very fun learning how to make different things with ai especially Claude code. https://youtube.com/@thelordswisdomroom?si=zGlwgN3GPx5x7UdR

For those who missed the first post or just joined: The Lyceum is a 12-week program we're building. Live instruction from Jake and the Eduba team. Small cohorts. Real projects. You build something from week one, not watch tutorials. At the end, a competition with real prizes. Eduba's first certification, backed by the same methodology we've used to train Fortune 500 teams. Now here's what we've locked in since then. The Structure Three 4-week sprints with a 1-week break between each. Not 12 straight weeks of grind. You build, you breathe, you come back sharper. - Sprint 1: Foundation — Core methodology. Everyone starts here. - Sprint 2: Application — You're building. Real project, real progress. - Sprint 3: Capstone — Finish what you started. Demo day prep. The breaks aren't fluff. They're built in so you can catch up, refine, or just live your life without falling behind. The Cohorts Same curriculum across all three. The difference is where your hours go. Technical — Developers, engineers, technical founders. You're building a tool or production system. 30% of your time goes to Claude Code and integrations. Another 30% to production systems and capstone. This is the builder track. Business — Ops, managers, founders, consultants. You're automating a process or designing a system spec. Heavy emphasis on workflow design (30%) and decision frameworks (25%). You direct the work without writing the code. Creator — Marketers, educators, solo operators. You're building a content production system. One person replaces the team. 25% on content pipelines, 20% on workflow design. This is how you scale yourself. Pick the track that matches how you work. The methodology transfers no matter which one you choose. A 4th Cohort? We're considering adding a team cohort if there's enough interest. This would be for companies that want to enroll multiple employees, or for people in the community who want to form their own team and build together. If that sounds like you, let us know in the comments.

Looking for advice on Windows, best way to use voice to text for VS Code so I'm no longer typing all the time. I'm confused about whether to use Base Windows speech-to-text or a plugin in VS Code.

Eight months ago, I started building what I thought orchestration required — N8N, Postgres, LibreChat, consulting and hosting fees. Tens of thousands of dollars. That was the right bet at the time. Nobody I saw was doing this with Claude yet. Three or four months ago, the game changed. And I didn't know it until I stumbled onto Jake's content on YouTube. Two weeks after watching "Stop Building AI Agents. Use This Folder System Instead", I have a working MCP. Client demo-ready. The whole system I was killing myself over? Markdown files and orchestration prompts. That's it. I want to give credit where it's due. Jake put something out that reoriented how I thought about AI. The investment wasn't wasted — it built the foundation. But Jake and this community pointed me toward what was actually possible now. If you're still building the complex version because you think you have to — it's worth a second look.

I just recorded a walkthrough of this but I want to lay it out here too. I've been building an instructor kit. A full folder architecture (yes, the same method I teach) designed to help people in this community create real courses. Not loose tutorials. Not "here's a tip" posts. Structured, formatted courses that fit into what we're building here and actually teach someone something useful. The kit has my writing rules, my lesson templates, a course outline system, sample lessons, and a prompt you can hand to Claude or any AI to help you write content that matches the community format. You can use it with Claude Code and a full folder setup, or you can just copy and paste a single file into any AI chat and start building. Both paths work. 🎯 Why I'm doing this. This community has grown fast. 12,500+ members. The courses I've built so far cover the foundation: folder architecture, the abstraction series, Claude Code, prompting frameworks. But I'm one person. There are people in this community who know things I don't. Who have built things I haven't. Who could teach topics I can't cover with the depth they deserve. The way I see it, Clief Notes should operate more like a university than a course platform. Sections and departments, each run by someone who actually has depth in that subject. Your course, your name on it, your expertise. I provide the structure, the audience, the format, and the quality control. You bring the knowledge. 💰 What's in it for you right now. I want to be straight about this. Early on, the main thing I can offer instructors is free VIP access for as long as your course is live and maintained. That gets you into every tier of the community, the live sessions, the recordings, the Discord, everything. As this grows and I can see what kind of attention and value the instructor courses bring in, I want to move toward profit sharing or payouts for instructors whose courses are driving real engagement. I'm still working out exactly how that looks. I'd rather figure it out with real data than promise something I can't deliver yet. What I can promise is that this will not stay volunteer-only forever. The goal is for this to be worth your time in every sense.
