https://t.co/VqB4WxmCFW announced that Kimi had gone from number 17 in the “Frontend Code Arena”, a measure of an LLM’s ability to perform multi-step web development tasks, to number one, surpassing the buzzy Claude Fable 5 and GPT-5.6 Sol by a mile.

AI can write code faster than humans. It can't magically give you the mental model you'd have if you wrote it yourself. At some point, context becomes the bottleneck.

[Bitclaw @bitclaw]

Man those Chinese models are really catching up 😅

[Bitclaw @bitclaw]

Some stuff I figured out using Claude Code:

- -w for parallel sessions on different branches — no collisions
- --model opus per terminal, not /model (that saves globally)
- opusplan — Opus thinks, Sonnet does
- -n names sessions, --resume <name> picks them up later

Wrote the details here in case it helps anyone else:

Product engineering is taste

Great 💀https://t.co/Kcx58XbXMM

AI has commoditized writing code more than it has commoditized distribution.

Great marketing is a bigger competitive advantage today than it was five years ago, but it doesn't replace building a product people love.

There are no "13 rules" for SaaS.

There are only trade offs.

- Free trial vs. paid.
- PLG vs. sales.
- Niche vs. broad.
- Growth vs. retention.

The only real rule is: build something people keep paying for.

AI is creating a new version of an old engineering lesson:

"Don't build agents you can't answer for."

It's the new "Don't copy code you don't understand."

[Bitclaw @bitclaw]

The "too dangerous to use" model is back.

Nothing makes a frontier AI feel less terrifying than a progress bar that says:

Fable: 0% used

[Bitclaw @bitclaw]

When you see "—", now you know it's AI generated. The em dash has officially become the Scarlet Letter. So now everyone's doing the ol' switcheroo with "--" to hide their tracks. 😅😂🤣

Today we're releasing a new set of components for building chat interfaces.

We've taken the patterns we build every day, rethought the abstractions behind them, and turned them into components you can compose and customize.

We're starting with the conversation layer: streaming, scrolling, messages, bubbles, attachments, and markers.

Ban marketing

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.

Access to all other Claude models is not affected.

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

cookieCache read path works now in 1.6.18 for me. So best to update BetterAuth to the latest version. The 2 better-auth DB hits I was getting in a template I am building are now eliminated on every request after the first.

This has to be a publicity stunt, I tested Fable and found it to be just as bad as their previous models. Nothing groundbreaking.

Every time Anthropic releases a new model, they reset your limits.

At this point "Your usage limits have been refreshed" is basically their launch event.
