Looks like @AnthropicAI may have done a little distillation for Opus 4.8... from Qwen, no less. Asked Claude who it was, it introduced itself as Qwen.

Pretty embarrassing for a company that has spent so much time throwing stones at others over model training.

People who live in glass houses, Anthropic...

[Nasir Iqbal @geeky_nasir]

was coding with Claude Fable 5 and mid-conversation it hit me with "credits are required for this model"

checked my usage. zero usage logged for Fable 5. nothing.

Anthropic said Fable 5 is available until July 19th. today is July 17th. still 2 days left.

what is going on @AnthropicAI @claudeai 👀

“Kimi is just distilled from Fable”

Meanwhile in other labs :
> Grok got caught stealing all user data
> OpenAI got caught stealing everything from Apple
> Anthropic stealing user data
> Cursor got caught stealing entire weight of Kimi-K2.5
> New US lab steals Kimi-K2.5 and call it synthetic data

Der US-Präsident bewegt mit einzelnen Posts Ölpreise, Aktienkurse und damit auch dein Depot. Ab dem 1. August verkauft seine eigene Firma Tradern diese Posts. Millisekunden bevor du sie siehst.

Das Produkt heißt Truth API. Trump Media liefert damit die Posts der zehn reichweitenstärksten Truth-Social-Accounts direkt in die Systeme zahlender Kunden, darunter Hochfrequenzhändler, deren Algorithmen in Sekundenbruchteilen kaufen und verkaufen. Abgedeckt sind neben Trump auch das Weiße Haus, FBI-Direktor Kash Patel und Gesundheitsminister Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Erste Kunden haben schon vor dem Start unterschrieben.

Warum dieser Vorsprung Geld wert ist, zeigt der 9. April 2025. Trump postet "THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BUY". Stunden später verkündet er die Zollpause, der S&P 500 springt um zehn Prozent, der größte Tagesgewinn seit 2008. Wer solche Posts auch nur Sekunden früher liest, verdient Millionen. Alle anderen zahlen die Rechnung.

Der Verkäufer dieses Vorsprungs ist zugleich sein Urheber. Rund 42 Prozent von Trump Media liegen in einem Trust der Familie. Eine CNN-Recherche zählte über 20 Firmen, die Trump auf Truth Social bewarb, kurz nachdem Aktienkäufe in seinen Offenlegungen auftauchten. Die Ethikanwältin Virginia Canter spricht von einem massiven Interessenkonflikt: Der Präsident schulde seine Informationen der Öffentlichkeit, leite sie nun aber durch einen privaten Kanal, an dem er selbst verdiene.

Regierungsdaten wie Arbeitsmarktzahlen werden weltweit für alle gleichzeitig veröffentlicht, genau damit niemand einen käuflichen Vorsprung hat. Für die Worte des mächtigsten Mannes der Welt gilt ab August das Gegenteil. Wer zahlt, weiß es zuerst.

GPT-5.6-Sol-Ultra built a Doom-like game in SQL: the game is running in the terminal on the left, while the SQL powering the game in the terminal on the right.

How it works:
DOOMQL is a game engine implemented in 2,000+ lines of SQL. Every frame, SQL raycasts the scene, calculates every RGB pixel, and encodes those pixels as coloured terminal characters. The same SQL then handles controls, movement, collision, enemy AI and combat, while Python connects SQLite to the keyboard, clock and terminal.

Want to run a 70B+ model but don't have an 80GB GPU? Mesh LLM distributes inference across the devices you actually have.

The architecture is incredibly smart:
→ If a node can fit the model, it runs locally
→ If not, it routes to a peer that can
→ If the model is too big for any single box, it uses "Skippy stage splits" to shard the model by layer across your hardware

Open source in Rust. Worth checking out

Bresenham's line algorithm draws a line using only integer arithmetic

Jack Bresenham created it at IBM in 1962

more than 60 years later the same idea still appears in graphics drivers terminals game engines and embedded displays

a remarkably simple algorithm that refused to become obsolet

Harry R. Truman waves goodbye to a helicopter crew after refusing his final chance to evacuate Mount St. Helens. Three days later, on May 18, 1980, the volcano erupted, burying Truman and his lodge beneath an estimated 150 feet of volcanic debris.

Harry R. Truman was the 83-year-old owner of the Mount St. Helens Lodge on Spirit Lake, where he had lived for decades. A World War I veteran with no relation to President Harry S. Truman, he became nationally known after refusing repeated evacuation orders when the volcano showed signs of erupting in 1980.

Despite pleas from friends, officials, and helicopter crews, Truman chose to stay with his cats and the lodge he loved. On the morning of May 18, 1980, a magnitude 5.1 earthquake triggered the collapse of Mount St. Helens’ north flank, unleashing a massive landslide and lateral blast that buried Truman, his lodge, and the surrounding area beneath volcanic debris. His body was never recovered. The eruption killed 57 people and permanently transformed the landscape around Spirit Lake.

i'm open sourcing UNBROKER: a tool that finds where your personal info is exposed by data brokers and files the removals for you

it runs as a skill in Hermes Agent
_________

your data is everywhere; hundreds of brokers publish your name, current and old addresses, phone, email, birthday, even your relatives. anyone can find where you live in about ten seconds

CCPA, CPRA, GDPR, and a growing number of state laws say a broker has to delete your data if you ask. there's just no easy bulk button. every broker has a different process and many make it intentionally difficult to exercise your right to delete

this is the entire business model for companies like DeleteMe, Incogni, EasyOptOuts; they charge you monthly (DeleteMe is $330/yr for a Family plan) to file removals that you can submit yourself for free, and then you're giving a new company the exact data you want to erase

so i built one you just run for free. your data never even has to leave your machine if you run a local model
_________

how it works:

first it builds search vectors from everything: every name, alias, email, phone, and address you've had (brokers might index you under a maiden name or a house you left in 2014, so the naive "current name + current city" approach can miss profiles). then it fans out parallel sub-agents across the broker list, which refreshes from a maintained public source

automation is tiered. when it can handle a broker end to end with your settings, it drives a browser through the opt-out form, sends the email, and opens the confirmation link itself. soft CAPTCHAs clear on their own with a real browser. anything only a human can finish comes back to you as a short list at the end

the email side doesn't need a stored password and can send opt-outs and open verification links through your own logged-in webmail. you can also wire up SMTP, or keep it manual and just send the drafts it writes

it tailors every request to your jurisdiction, filing under the framework that applies where you live: CCPA and CPRA in California, GDPR in the EU and UK, a general right-to-delete request everywhere else. if you're in California it also uses the state's DROP portal, a single request that covers 500+ registered brokers at once

it holds as little of your data as it can, and keeps it local. dossiers are encrypted at rest if you want, opaque ids keep your real name out of every filename and log, and nothing leaves your machine unless you opt in

brokers sometimes relist you eventually or new ones find your data, so every case is tracked in a ledger and can be re-scanned on a cron schedule so if your data pops back up it files the removal again

Meta burns $2.65B a year on AI tokens. at $300K for a Meta engineer, that's enough to pay ~9,000 engineers for a full year.

now ask yourself: since the layoffs, has Meta shipped anything that feels like 9,000 engineers’ worth of output?
