One brain across many machines, and it remembers 2018

A reminder, folks: I am experimenting with Claude and Codex and Cursor, installed at once on many computers, mine and my colleagues'.

And we all share one brain. Which is to say, we all know what the other person knows. If I started some piece of work, I can pick it up, and so can my colleagues, and that is fun.

But you can use this both for team work and just for yourself.

The second brain also ended up holding my entire WhatsApp history, my whole Telegram, every Telegram message, all my mail, all my notes from my whole life, my entire browser history, everything I watched on YouTube and so on.

And you have no idea how much easier life became.

If you are in ordinary ChatGPT or Claude, or even if you use Claude Code, Codex or something else, and you ask a question, then your context is, loosely speaking, only from that session. Or maybe you attached some folders, and it will try to find something in those same folders.

But all of that works very badly.

If you really want your robots, and it does not matter who you have under the hood, Claude, Codex, ChatGPT, Cursor, Grok and so on, to know the context of your question, do what I did.

If you have a normal, good, direct subscription, I will be glad to share all of it with you. You just need to go to my github, all the instructions are there.

If you want, I can walk you through it by the hand and set the whole thing up.

This is genuinely better than Goethe's Faust.

Having a second brain is so convenient, you simply have no idea.

So I lost some password to a Mail.ru account. And to recover that password I needed to, I do not even remember what any more. The last time I was in Russia was 15 years ago. I wrote to Mail.ru: please let me recover my password. And in reply, complete silence.

So then, when I talked my problem over with my Claude, he says:

Dude, do you remember you gave your employee your login and password back in 2018? And it is a working password, you somehow forgot about it?

I said: no way.

So you found in my Telegram from 2018 that I once gave someone a password, and you checked that it all still works?

I was ready to kiss my agent.

Being able to remember everything and, most importantly, to search information fast, that is the real key.

You can use this thing with colleagues and on your own. But you need the maximum subscription, around 200 bucks, and then you will appreciate how good it is

Underneath it is RAG, retrieval and embeddings, plus indexing and search.
