> We expect demand for Fable 5 to be very high, and difficult to predict. On the Claude API and consumption-based Enterprise plans, Fable 5 is fully available from today. For subsc…

Be Here Now network, which started with Ram Dass, still does mostly weekly videos from Goldstein and Kornfield. Search for their names where you listen to your podcasts. Incredibly…

Very much agree. Gave a presentation on AI to a group earlier this week and I spent a third of the time talking about the Opus 4.5 inflection point in AI history. First time using …

Massivly better and I cannot understand how many comments online say that they're comparable (other than paid actors which now fits the right wing angle that OpenAI takes because r…

https://archive.ph/uygcK Edit for the good metaphors. > It has entered what mountaineers call the death zone: the altitude above 8,000 metres at which the human body consumes itsel…

I wonder how much this might change in the coming years purely from GLP-1s. Articles like this[0] (which yes, Betteridge's law applies) talk about how it’s pretty likely they’ll be…

I literally did this yesterday and had the same thought. Older computer (8 gigs ram) with crappy windows I never used and I thought huh, I wonder how good these models can take me …

Reread Story of Your Life again just now, and all it made me want to do is learn Heptapod B and their senagram style of written communication. Reading “Mathematica - A secret world…

Quote that I always like: There was a man who was afraid of his shadow and disliked his footprints. So he tried to get away from them. He ran, but the faster he ran, the more numer…

Meta about how important context is. People see LLMs and tons of tests tests written in the same sentence, and think that shows how models love writing pointless tests. Rather than…

Sure, but the end of this post [0] is where I'm at. I don't feel the need or want to write the code when I can spend my time doing the other parts that are much more interesting an…

Infinitely agree with all. I was skeptical, and then tried Opus 4.5 and was blown away. Codex with 5.0 and 5.1 wasn't great, but 5.2 is big improvement. I can't do code without it …

Another video about this today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Bg0Q1enwS4 Summary is that for agents to work well they need clear vision into all things, and putting the data beh…

Same. Never used worktrees before, but mapping a worktrees to tickets I’m assigned to for Claude to work on is really great. Heck with the ai, I even have it spin up a dev and test…

This is what I'm doing, Opus 4.5 for personal projects and to learn the flow and what's needed. Only thing I'll disagree with is how the work takes similar amount of time because I…

I'm in Wisconsin and if I drive on a county road, I see signs near the road that say "Save our S̶o̶l̶a̶r̶ Farms". Maybe some are fine with them, but seems like lots of internal pre…

Go to usda.gov and two recent press releases are 1 - Secretary Rollins Blocks Taxpayer Dollars for Solar Panels on Prime Farmland 2- Secretary Rollins Prioritizes American Energy o…

My brother in law curls. Asked him about this and he said that it's been coming for a while, the men's teams at Canadian nationals has a self imposed a ban on them, and for amateur…

I've been curious about what the best way to recording breathing rates with wearables would be. Thought was a chest strap with springs to measure tension with higher tension being …

>They had banked on Murati calming employees while they searched for a CEO. Instead, she was leading her colleagues in a revolt against the board. I finally finished the 4th of Car…

Stolen bases in baseball is similar to this. In 2023, MLB made two rule changes with stealing being at all time lows (and them thinking fans love stolen bases): 1) Limiting the num…

I totally remember 482 (Operating Systems for those reading) being really interesting. Story I remember is one of the final projects and dealing with locks in C++ world where I'd g…

For engineering we had to pick either multivariate calculus or linear algebra for more upper level math courses. I picked multivariate, and I'll say it was also my least enjoyable …

Same with async and throwing threads at a problem. People love do those and think it's the right answer, but you can do a ton with smarter memory management and actually looking at…
