On one hand, this had to happen at some point. I feel the split between ChatGPT vs. Codex wasn't helping OpenAI. Anthropic did it right from the beginning by unifying everything in…

I believe that's like saying we should only have a single "throw" event in athletics. Or why having hurdles events when you already have regular running ones. I like that we can ha…

Finswimming is actually a separate sport, just not an olympic sport. Although it has some exciting characteristics like very fast 50 meter races, which I enjoy as a "regular" (non-…

I find this a very exciting release. I was actually hoping we would somehow get macOS on mobile 'A' chips some day. And I think this is better than putting 'M' chips on an iPad. My…

That's interesting, thanks for sharing! It's a pattern I saw more often with claude code, at least in terms of how frequently it says it (much improved now). But it's true that jus…

A few comments mentioning distillation. If you use claude-code with the z.ai coding plan, I think it quickly becomes obvious they did train on other models. Even the "you're absolu…
