Every day you are faced with an infinite number of things that come at you. Let’s call them “dots.” To be effective, you need to be able to tell which dots are important and which dots are not. Some people go through life collecting all kinds of observations and opinions like pocket lint, instead of just keeping what they need. They have “detail anxiety,” worrying about unimportant things.
Sometimes small things can be important—for example, that little rattle in your car’s engine could just be a loose piece of plastic or it could be a sign your timing belt is about to snap. The key is having the higher-level perspective to make fast and accurate judgments on what the real risks are without getting bogged down in details. #principleoftheday
Squidsoup is a collective of artists and designers who make immersive experiences with sound, light and space.
We caught up with them before one of their largest projects to date: a live performance with an orchestra at the Southbank Centre in London.
Be wary of relying on anything else. Unfortunately, numerous tests by psychologists show that the majority of people follow the lower-level path most of the time, which leads to inferior decisions without their realizing it. As Carl Jung put it, "Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate." It's even more important that decision making be evidence-based and logical when groups of people are working together. If it's not, the process will inevitably be dominated by the most powerful rather than the most insightful participants, which is not only unfair but suboptimal. Successful organizations have cultures in which evidence-based decision making is the norm rather than the exception.

Announcing Built with Claude: Life Sciences, a global virtual hackathon.
Join us and @GladstoneInst for a week of researching and building with Claude Science and Claude Code, with a prize pool of $100k in credits.
Claude Fable 5 will be available again globally tomorrow.
After a series of productive conversations with the US government, we're redeploying the model with a new set of classifiers to target and block more cybersecurity tasks. In the near term, some routine tasks like coding and debugging will fall back to Opus 4.8. We’ll continue to refine these classifiers over the coming weeks to reduce false positives and better distinguish genuine misuse from legitimate requests.
We’ve also begun drafting a consensus framework—with Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and other Glasswing partners—for assessing the severity of AI jailbreaks and how AI developers should respond to them. We invite other industry partners and model providers to join us in this effort.
Finally, we’re scaling up our collaboration with the US government on model testing and safeguards. This will include pre-release access to models and safeguards for evaluation, information sharing on jailbreaks and misuse, and dedicated resources for joint research.
Thank you to our users for your patience, and to our partners across the government, industry, and the research community who worked alongside us to make Fable 5 available again.

Trraders:
I spent about an hour chatting with a 16 year old lad who'd been looking at trading since 13.
He's currently spending more time watching recordings of his trading that he is trading.
I gave him some pointers on allocating some time to other activities.
But 16 - recording and reviewing his trades...
He'll go far. So will anyone with that level of commitment to improving.
Go Noah!!
Both your people and your design must evolve for your machine to improve. When you get personal evolution right, the returns are exponential. As people get better and better, they are more able to think independently, probe, and help you refine your machine. The faster they evolve, the faster your outcomes will improve.
Your part in an employee’s personal evolution begins with a frank assessment of their strengths and weaknesses, followed by a plan for how their weaknesses can be mitigated either through training or by switching to a different job that taps into their strengths and preferences.
Even as you help people develop, you must constantly assess whether they are able to fulfill their responsibilities excellently. This is not easy to do objectively since you will often have meaningful relationships with your reports and may be reluctant to evaluate them accurately if their performance isn’t at the bar. By the same token, you may be tempted to give an employee who rubs you the wrong way a worse evaluation than he or she deserves. An idea meritocracy requires objectivity. #principleoftheday

The last time investors confused Silver as anything more than an industrial metal was 2010. Chart attached. We rallied 170%. We dropped 48%.
Fast forward 16 years. Animal spirits and AI created a bubble in a commodity with 206% rally this year. Bubble bursts, now down 50%.
I dont know where it bounces but if we use 2010 as example. I suspect we trade $46 again in near term and then the market bounces and stabilises in a range.

🇺🇸 BIG: Anthropic's Mythos model identified vulnerabilities in classified US government systems within hours during a testing exercise conducted alongside US intelligence agencies, per AP.
Most traders spend a lot of time trying to reduce their losses.
But what if that isn’t the real problem?
In this video, Richard reviews the performance of a real trader and explores why improving results isn’t always about losing less.
Using actual trading data, he explains how small changes in trade management, selectivity, and execution can have a much bigger impact on performance than many traders realise.
If you’ve been working hard on risk management but feel like your results aren’t improving, this will give you a different perspective on what might actually be holding you back.

New Frontier Red Team blog: Phase 2 of Project Fetch, where we test how well Claude can program a robodog.
Opus 4.7, on its own, was ~20x faster than last year's best human team aided by Opus 4.1. (The robodog, alas, still failed to fetch a beach ball.)

Good analysis but I disagree on 1 point.
"News flash, if it was THAT easy more people would be doing it."
This is incorrect.
If it was that easy and more people did it - they'd find a way to not payout.
;-)
Some of the biggest trading opportunities come from understanding how markets respond to information.
When major events occur, price, volume, and participation can reveal whether a move is gaining momentum or nearing exhaustion. The challenge is not just identifying the opportunity, but recognising when the underlying story has changed and adjusting accordingly.
Developing that awareness can help traders stay aligned with the market rather than reacting to it.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei were among tech bosses at a G7 working lunch on AI, as the US decision to restrict access to Anthropic's most advanced models causes tension among allies https://t.co/IfdWD2xPs3
Why successful traders focus on process and not outcome.
Not because it sounds cool. Because it works.
Focus on the outcome and you usually get the opposite of what you wanted.
USA hung four on Paraguay last night. And here’s the part nobody talks about. Pochettino never had them chasing a scoreline. He had them chasing the next chance, still firing into stoppage time with the game already won, because that’s what got drilled in. You don’t program yourself to win games. You program yourself into positions to score.
Same game in trading.
Focus on winning and you’ll probably lose. Focus on the things that put you in position to win and you might end up a better trader than you thought you could be.
The lessons are everywhere if you actually want them. The ones who handle the minutia, the execution, the boring repetition, those are the ones collecting the rewards. The ones glued to the P&L are the ones talking about stuff that doesn’t matter.
Process or outcome. Your call.
Cheers, DELI
We’re launching Claude Corps, a national fellowship program matching people early in their careers with US nonprofits.
We'll teach 1,000 people to use Claude, and pay them to use AI to advance their hosts’ missions.
