The Anatomy of a new Claude 'Fable 5' Prompt:

1. Task

Start with why, NOT what.
Claude 5 connects the dots.
'I'm working on [goal] for [who it's for]. They need [what the output enables]. With that in mind: [task].'

2. Context Files

Upload your expertise. Stop explaining in prompts.
"Read these files completely before responding: [filename .md] - [what it contains]."
The file is the brain. This part never changes.

3. Reference

Show Claude 5 what good looks like.
"Reference for what I want to achieve: [paste]."
One example beats ten instructions.

4. Effort

The new change, a few people are talking about.
"This is a [routine / hard / hardest-unsolved] problem. Scope it like it's at the top of your range."
Teams testing Claude 5 on easy tasks undersell it.
Give it your hardest problem.

5. Act

"AskUserQuestion" is still the king.
Add "When you have enough information to act, act. Don't re-litigate my decisions. While weighing a choice, give a recommendation."

6. Scope

Claude 5 over-delivers by default. Control it.
"Do the simplest thing that works well. No extra features, refactors, or abstractions. If I'm describing a problem, the deliverable is your assessment."
The old one did too little. This one does too much.

7. Delegate

One Claude is no longer the limit.
"Split independent subtasks across subagents & keep working while they run. Verify with a fresh-context subagent."
It's not a chatbot anymore. It's a team lead.

8. Evidence

The line that removes fake progress reports.
"Before reporting progress, audit every claim against a tool result. If it's unverified, say so. Tests failed? Show the output."
Anthropic tested this.
It nearly eliminated fabricated status updates.

9. Memory
Claude 5 gets smarter every run. If you let it.
"Record learnings in [notes .md] — one per file. Update, no duplicate. Delete what turns out wrong."
Your prompts expire. Your learning file compounds.

10. Checkpoint

It can run for hours. Decide when it stops.
"Pause only for: destructive actions, scope changes, or input only I can provide. Never end your turn on a promise."
The old fear was Claude stopping too late.
The new fear is stopping too early.

11. Report

The last block. The first thing you read.
"Open with the outcome - the TLDR I'd ask for. Complete sentences. Clear beats short."
It worked for hours. You read for ten seconds.

The perfect storm

Think of the stock market like a busy highway. Normally, there’s enough road (liquidity) for cars (trades) to flow smoothly. But right now, several big things are piling up that could create traffic jams, sudden surges, or squeezes—especially for stocks with few available shares (“thin floats”).

The IPO Cluster Effect
• Several huge companies (like SpaceX or others) might go public around the same time.
• IPOs start with very few shares available to the public. Big index funds and ETFs must buy them quickly to match benchmarks (like the S&P 500 or Nasdaq).

• Result: Heavy forced buying into limited supply → prices can spike fast. Short sellers (betting on drops) get squeezed and forced to buy back shares, pushing prices even higher.

This isn’t just hype—it’s mechanical. Funds rebalance by selling other stocks to buy the new ones, creating ripples across the market.

Back-End Plumbing & Liquidity Issues (Made Simple)
• Thin floats & borrowing limits: Hard to borrow shares to short early on. Low supply + high demand = easy pops and squeezes.
• ETF/derivatives mechanics: Authorized participants struggle to source shares for new ETF creations, leading to premiums, tracking errors, or extra use of options/swaps. This amplifies volatility.
• Overall liquidity strains: Market “plumbing” (how trades settle, credit lines, etc.) gets stressed when big flows hit at once. Low liquidity means small trades can move prices a lot more than usual. https://t.co/nQWTRL03LJ

Extra Pressure This June 2026
• Quad Witching Week (around June 18–19): Options, futures, and other derivatives all expire at once. This causes huge trading volume, position unwinds, and volatility spikes—often in the final hour. It can exaggerate any IPO-related moves. https://t.co/VncmjvXq6D

• 5-Year Swaps Due: Large interest rate swap contracts (agreements to exchange payments based on rates) are maturing/rolling. This forces banks and funds to adjust massive positions, potentially draining or shifting liquidity.

• Business Announcements: Earnings, deal news, or other corporate updates often cluster here, adding more fuel and uncertainty.
Bottom line: A perfect storm of big IPO demand, thin supply, derivative expirations, swap rolls, and news flow could create sharp upside squeezes, volatility, or liquidity crunches.

It won’t “break” the market outright, but it makes things choppier and riskier for shorts and anyone not paying attention to the plumbing. Always do your own research—this is just a simplified view of the mechanics.

American law enforcement is hiding camera inside fake utility boxes

This box looks like an electric box. It even has an electric bolt symbol as a decoy. But it’s fake, inside is a camera that used by law enforcement to monitor the public

Law enforcement uses these decoy boxes attached to utility poles for surveillance

We are under unlawful surveillance and they courts when side with law enforcement over these cameras

In many US jurisdictions, long-term warrantless pole camera surveillance of public areas or homes from a distance has been upheld by courts

Insane

If you have a Gmail account, you need to read this.

Google's AI now scans your emails and attachments, bank statements, tax files, medical letters, all of it. It turned on by default, and there's a class-action lawsuit over how.

Here are 5 moves to shut it off, the switch is hidden in two places:

Did Xavier Becerra just admit to a massive crime live on TV?

He literally says he helped divert California Federal taxpayer money going to the U.S. Treasury, and then jokes about whether he said it too obviously. Interestingly one of the biggest tax fraud cases was a tax relief company in Beverly Hills while Becerra was Congressman next door in the poorest district that likely supplied that vast majority of the people seeking tax relief from that company.

Becerra's buddy Jon Leibowitz at the FTC took $103 million from the case and only dealt out $16 million to the victims, leaving the rest for him to use at his complete discretion. Then together they lobbied for greater data privacy.

🚨 Docket update in 20230930-DK-Butterfly-1 v HBC Investments LLC

2 volumes of a "Sealed" Joint Appendix were filed last Friday with the Court of Appeals by the estate in preparation for the hearing that is scheduled for 6/23

The Joint Appendix is the official compiled record of key evidence, filings, transcripts, and exhibits from the lower court (SDNY) that both sides agree the appeals judges need to review

Los firewalls no pueden detener esto.

Un desarrollador acaba de abrir el código fuente de un túnel que hace pasar todo tu internet a través del puerto 53, el puerto que todos los routers en la Tierra están obligados a dejar abierto.

Se llama MasterDnsVPN. Oculta tu tráfico dentro de consultas DNS, el único tipo de paquete que ninguna red puede bloquear sin romperse a sí misma.

Cada firewall en la Tierra tiene que permitir DNS. Escuelas, aeropuertos, hoteles, WiFi de hoteles, países enteros con censura a nivel de ISP: todos ellos mantienen el puerto 53 abierto o nada en la red se resuelve. Este repositorio convierte esa laguna en un túnel cifrado completo.

Aquí está lo que lo hace diferente de todos los túneles DNS que vinieron antes:

→ Capa ARQ personalizada te da confiabilidad a nivel TCP sobre UDP DNS, así que nada se pierde ni siquiera en redes basura
→ Envía cada paquete a través de hasta 12 rutas de resolvedor diferentes al mismo tiempo; si 11 fallan, el paquete aún llega
→ Sondas automáticas para el máximo tamaño de carga útil DNS que tu ruta puede manejar, luego fija el MTU más rápido posible
→ AES-256-GCM, ChaCha20, AES-128, AES-192 todo integrado, elige tu cifrado
→ Proxy SOCKS5 en 127.0.0.1:1080 apunta cualquier navegador o app hacia él y estás dentro

Eliminado: $12/mes Mullvad, $10/mes NordVPN, $15/mes Astrill, todos los túneles DNS comerciales que cobran tarifas mensuales por exactamente la misma idea.

Binarios precompilados para Windows, Linux AMD64, Linux ARM64, macOS ARM64. No se necesita instalación de Python. Configura dos registros DNS, inserta la clave de cifrado, ejecuta el binario.

Funciona en entornos donde todos los demás protocolos VPN están muertos al llegar.

Licencia MIT. 100% Código abierto.

🚨 @SpaceX has chosen Fidelity Stock Transfer as their transfer agent (FST is a subsidiary of @Fidelity). This is surprising because all Mag 7 companies use @Computershare (including @Tesla). Why did @elonmusk choose FST over Computershare? Credit to @lawsondt for the find.

Claude Code's creator said something that stopped me cold:

"I don't prompt Claude anymore. I write loops — and the loops do the work. My job is to write loops."

Most developers are still crafting the perfect prompt.

The person who built the tool moved past prompting entirely.

In 30 minutes Boris reveals his actual daily Claude Code setup.

Claude Code + loops + dynamic workflows.

Worth more than any $500 vibe-coding course.

Watch it.

Then read this - everything you need to know about loops to actually apply what he says ↓

Bookmark both. This is your weekend.

Yes I absolutely do believe that common stock shareholders will ultimately be given distributions as allowed in the confirmed Plan. "The other discretionary provisions in the Plan, including the Plan Supplement, are appropriate and consistent with... provisions for the allowance of certain Claims and Interests..." That's from docket 2172, page 25.
And the situation hasn't been that RC could have done everything all this time and simply hasn't. He did the winning move 3 years ago, but he had to wait 3 years, as @jake2b explains due to bankruptcy code surrounding retaining NOL's as an acquirer with what was a non-consenting (in this case corrupt) Board. Watch Jake's video here (https://t.co/nz5ovj6M0h), he traces back the conversion of the Acquirer from Series A Preferred shares to COMMON STOCK shareholder (like us!). The big sudden change in total ownership percentage in 2023 as he went through that process via HBC is what required the 3-year waiting period, TO RETAIN the $Billions in NOL's. The fact that the Holder of Interests became a holder of Common Stock (like us) is what guarantees that what he gets, we will get a piece of too!
