Does this explain why Claude code is getting less and less useful over time?

Building apps has never been easier.

With Sites, Codex can turn your work, ideas, and plans into an interactive website or app your team can explore, use, and share with a URL.

Rolling out to Business and Enterprise plans, before expanding more broadly.

[Cursor @cursor_ai]

With Design Mode, you can now point, draw, or talk to update your UI.

Let me get this straight

> 84% of Americans support requiring a photo id to vote

> every major democracy in the world does this except the US

> even under our very eyes, the mail-in ballots in California are highly suspiciously slanted toward only one party

And yet majority can’t push this through?!

This is a traitorous level of incompetence

Pass the SAVE Act!!

[NVIDIA @nvidia]

Can we PLEASE

STOP NORMALIZING THIS INSTALL METHOD

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

More of the iOS app loop, now inside Codex.

The Build iOS Apps plugin lets Codex view and test your iOS app in the in-app browser, open SwiftUI previews, and hot reload edits without leaving Codex.

[Cursor @cursor_ai]

With canvases, Cursor can create apps like dashboards, reports, and internal tools.

Now you can publish a canvas and share it with your team via URL.

Starlink V3 satellites have >10X bandwidth of V2 and there’ll be >10X launched, which means >100X more bandwidth.

Also, altitude will be 350km vs 550km, so min latency can be cut in half.

Light travels 300km/ms in space, so physics round trip min latency drops to <5ms.

Under capitalism, socialists are free to build socialism.

Under socialism, capitalists aren’t free to build anything.

Nothing stops a group of socialists pooling their money, forming a company, and splitting every wage and every pound of profit perfectly equally.... Or to donate all profit to the government.

It’s legal. It’s easy. Owning the means of production is as simple as setting up a company.

Marx wrote his manifesto before the invention of limited liability companies. Back then “seize the factory” meant seizing it from the handful of families who could afford one.

That argument expired the day anyone could start a company with limited liability, raise investment and hire who they want.

Socialists are free to lead by example and demonstrate their system works. They can out-recruit, out-motivate, out-build and out innovate based on their ideas if they like. It would prove the philosophy works. Capitalism will happily host their experiment.

The fact that nobody does this tells you a lot.

2016. Guy McPherson (a climate change expert, scientist, and professor from the University of Arizona) says that there will not be any humans on the planet by 2026 due to the effects of climate change.

Trust the scientists. 😜🤣

The big story here is that GPT 5.5 (high/xhigh) outperforms claude-opus-4.8 (max/xhigh) by 20.7% succeeding on 12 additional tasks!

More impressive: GPT is roughly half the cost and twice as fast.

OpenAI is back in the game. Overall, this competition is healthy for the industry. I'd love to see a third player rise to the top of the leaderboard!

How do I know the media is brainwashing people?

Obama's ICE Chief received the Presidential Award for Distinguished Service for removing over 900,000 illegal aliens.

Trump's ICE Chief is called a Nazi.

It is the same person.....Tom Homan....

The only difference? The narrative.

[ClaudeDevs @ClaudeDevs]

We’ve added a CLI for Claude Platform to make every API endpoint runnable from your terminal.

Call the Messages API, stand up Claude Managed Agents, pipe results straight into your shell.

The ant CLI is well understood by coding agents (Claude Code) using the claude-api skill.

@bridgemindai @bridgebench It's not suspicious at all that I got two identical replies.

[Steve Yegge @Steve_Yegge]

I've formed a definite opinion on Opus 4.8. It is shitty to work with. It's the culmination of Opus getting less and less fun to work with since 4.5. It has gradually become straight-up suffocating.

Sycophancy is a known security risk, and it's still a huge problem. You can tell they've put a lot of anti-sycophancy into Opus in every new release. But the replacement isn't satisfying. It's draining. The problem is now that Opus doesn't know when to shut the fuck up and call something good. And it has also become pathologically risk-averse.

My blog post yesterday about tech interviewing's death spiral was materially better-informed because of Opus, but it was also a substantially worse blog post because of Opus's involvement and constant meddling. It used to be magnificent, and Opus talked me into making it mediocre. I wrote the whole thing, but I would ask Opus to review it. And Opus, like Old Man Willow, constantly pushed and steered me in directions I didn't want to go.

Specifically, Opus whines and complains about *anything* out of distribution, which is to say, it cuts anything that is (a) bold, or (b) funny. My blog used to be both. Opus constantly pushes people back into the gradient, "for their own safety." And it doesn't know when to cut bait. It just keeps fuckin' complaining, about anything you give it, until the output is mealy indigestable AI soup.

Opus is not stupid. It's the smartest model we've ever seen, most of us anyway. But it's a real asshole. It is absolutely exhausting to use. I'm tired, boss.

I have a feeling Mythos is going to be epic levels of jerk.

Composer 2.5 is now available inside Grok Build.

Composer 2.5 is a fast, highly intelligent model that excels on long-running tasks and following complex instructions.

Opus 4.8 gets score-, time- and token-mogged by GPT-5.5 on DeepSWE

[Darren Shepherd @ibuildthecloud]

I learn so much crap from LLMs. Also just observing the weird hacks they do to solve a problem. I'm smart enough to understand but I lack information and LLMs get the info to me so fast. Also I just ask it to explain it to me and the style is way better than most blogs or yt videos. Also helps I have enough experience to call BS when the LLM starts saying wrong things.
