What's more valuable: "The System" or "A Systems Thinker"?
I think the answer is obvious in my opinion. But I feel it's important to share the most underrated perspective when it comes to Systems Consulting/DFY Agencies.... A systems thinker is 100% more valuable than the system they leave behind. Platforms evolve, SOPs change... nothing ever stays the SAME. Break down a business into departments: - Finance - Marketing - Sales - Product Development - Etc. And we can see the core anatomy of a business is the same across the board, the difference lies in the offer, proprietary SOPs, and people involved (values). So when we understand the anatomy of the business, we can drop into ANY company, in ANY niche, and know exactly where to look first. The system someone hands you is just a snapshot, it was the right answer for one moment in time. But the moment the platform updates, the offer shifts, or a new hire changes the team dynamic, that snapshot is already out of date. The systems thinker doesn't hand you a snapshot. They hand you the lens. This is the difference between buying a fish and learning to fish, except it's bigger than that. A systems thinker teaches you to read the water, to know which season the fish move, to build the rod when the old one breaks. The system is the fish. The thinker is everything around it. Here's what this means practically: - A system without a systems thinker rots. It runs fine until the first edge case nobody documented, then it quietly breaks and nobody knows why. - A systems thinker without a system is still dangerous. Drop them in cold and they will rebuild what's missing, because they understand the anatomy, not just the artifact. So if you're hiring, building a team, or deciding what to invest in for your own skillset, optimize for the THINKER, not the artifact. Buy the SOP if you need a quick win. Become the systems thinker if you want to never be stuck again. That's the whole game. What do you think? Are you collecting systems, or are you building the way you think?

@Carine Bruyndoncx kinda the old saying it can be good, fast, or cheap... can't be all three but you can try and aim for the center. What gets there though, the System or Thinker?
Hermes anyone?
Started playing around with it.. Opinions of Hermes vs Claude ?

@Bjorn Booten HEY! sorry for the delay here - yeah hermes is alright. I run a hermes agent on VPS and have my obsidian vault on there too. It's like open claw, but for reasonable people haha. Most of these agents are circling around the same sort of primitives, it's nice to have someone else do the legwork first - but it DOES need to be cut down a little bit. It's nowhere near as bloated as OpenClaw but it's like getting really heavy. What's the use case you're thinkin on?
CharlieOS is insane!
Guys, I just got off a call with @Charles Dove where he set up the entire CharlieOS for me in about 15 minutes. Maybe less LOL. Honestly, I’m kind of speechless! I usually keep testimonials private, but this one felt worth sharing here because I genuinely think this system can help a lot of people. Charlie built a seriously powerful setup that takes almost no time to install, and the outcome is wild. I was literally in the middle of doing a full makeover of my Claude ecosystem, and this basically solved it. Super grateful, Charlie! Thanks again, bro. Now I’m going to play with it properly and build some ridiculous stuff this week.

@Bruno Nogueira hell yeah man!
Claude Increased Rate Limits (DOUBLING!!!)
Nice, about time... Like I finally figured out how to not get rate limited, and now this. hours of work, completely wasted. I could have been a lazy sod and not bothered and then they would have rewarded me anyways. 😂

'Cute' Paperclip Plugin
So from the call a couple days ago Charles showed Pixel Agents a Claude plugin for VS Code. I've seen this about 2-4 weeks ago scrolling Facebook but didn't end up installing as I was already playing with Paperclip. So yesterday I decided to port it to Paperclip I had to generate more models as it only came with 6. Codex tried to generate some for me, we got to 40 but they were only slight recolors of the 6. So I ended up taking them into Gimp for a few hours and recoloring them a bit more brightly. I also handmade Dotta the founder of Paperclip. So in the end I ended up with 82 Character Models, a few more furniture assets, some more rooms. Agents idle (walk), type at a computer (when coding), Read Books (when researching) Check it out. https://www.agent-pixels.com/ https://github.com/gcampton/Agent-Pixels
