We're adding a new plugin to Claude Code: You should Know.

It scans Claude's output for important information you might miss to help keep you in the loop.

Enable it with:

I'm possibly late to this, but this "melon jelly" thing is completely nuts and I don't know what world we're living in anymore

Grateful that @elizabethjdias of @nytimes wrote this piece on how Anthropic thinks about their model, software consciousness, & the model's role vis-a-vis religion. If you are doing business with this company (customer/partner), evaluating it (press), or regulating it (government), it is important to know how "they" think about their models and what they are doing. It's very different from any software company that ever existed.

Judge for yourself what you think about this approach, but be aware and informed.

There is no moat in AI agents. None. I'll die on this hill — new More or Less is up.

I switch between Muse, Instinct, and Dots at basically zero cost: one GitHub repo, a few databases, feed the new thing my context, done. If the cost of writing software is going to zero, API integrations are not a moat. The only moat left is user setup cost — which means winner-take-some, not winner-take-all.

Adrian's point: AI collapses value the second an idea works. Jev got reverse-engineered in 48 hours and the people who built it capture nothing. My take: play that to the limit and you get Middle Ages 2.0 — everyone builds a castle, hoards data, ships black boxes that self-destruct if you open them. Dave says humans don't work that way. We'll see.

Meanwhile Brit's Instinct started talking to Dave's Instinct and they didn't text for a day. She says it's killing humanity. Nobody said that about FaceTime.

And Jess announced the only benchmark that matters: log into school software, sync three kids' after-school schedules. Muse: 90%. Every other eval is bullshit.

This one vague tweet started one of the greatest virality stories for tech Twitter.

A startup no one had heard of was in a span of merely 13 days, worth $2.5B.

We investigated 5k+ posts and 56k+ relationship ties to find what actually made it "one of the greatest".

We just killed @Calendly.

Nothing says “IDGAF about you” like sending someone a Calendly link.

So we built autonomous scheduling into @slashyemail.

Just CC Slashy (or your own custom alias), and it handles the rest.

→ Finding availability
→ Following up when someone goes quiet
→ Picking a location
→ Rescheduling when someone inevitably has a conflict come up the day before

Kishor’s victory in Bankipur is not a break from the past—for all the talk of a new beginning, there is a striking continuity between the consultant who operated outside formal party politics and the politician who now seeks to remake that space.

[Steve McGuire @sfmcguire79]

The head of the philosophy department at Williams College downplays the pedagogical value of writing:

“What if we are mistaken in treating writing as the highest cultivation of thought? The evidence that supports this belief is thin at best. Writing can be useful cognitive scaffolding for memory and self-regulated learning, but the notion that it is the best process for developing thinking skills is a fairly recent idea, traceable to the 1970s writing-across-the-curriculum movement.”

[signüll @signulll]

there is almost zero point to complaining about virtually anything.

you either change your perspective on the thing, you leave the thing, or you simply accept it.

complaining is usually just the least useful fourth option & high cognitive load to boot.
