Did you know that John Thune, the LEADER of the Senate, has a wife AND a daughter who are Democrats?
The only reason he SAYS he's a republican is to get elected in South Dakota.
He's really a Democrat too.
The GOP needs to pull it's heads outta it's asses and REMOVE HIM.
8 to 10 million gallons of raw sewage is pouring into the Merrimack River in Massachusetts every single day since Friday.
The beaches are closed. No swimming. No fishing. No boating. No 4th of July celebrations.
Maura Healey was more focused on giving illegals housing than making sure the sewage infrastructure was up to par.
Democrats destroy everything they touch.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and the Minnesota Board of Pardons granted a pardon to Tou Lue Vang, an immigrant convicted of s-xually ab*sing a 10-year-old, helping prevent his deportation, according to NYT.
@monsterhunter45 They get big "sales" numbers also because they are handed out free to campaign workers.
I am super excited to have USAID no longer funding these things.
Anthropic is literally becoming the AI villain:
- Not communicating updates people care about
- Limiting usage of the best model
- Making a big deal about small things (Sonnet 5)
OpenAI looks like the hero now:
- Lots of updates from the team constantly
- Lots of usage resets (free usage)
- Eating the cost of their best model
I don't run a trillion dollar company, but this seems so shortsighted to me. Anthropic was CRUSHING OpenAI six months ago, but all of these decisions are slowly catching up to them and hurting customer sentiment.
Obviously the Fable situation with the U.S. Government is not easy to handle, but you can come out of it looking like the hero. Anthropic is not doing that. Instead, they're going to limit the included plan usage and then immediately switch models or charge more?? I don't get it, someone explain the logic?
I was fully out on OpenAI. Today, I use Codex and GPT-5.5 more than Claude/Opus. I wouldn't have thought that was possible a few months ago. I was Claude-pilled HARD.
All of this is a great lesson for the rest of us:
1. Communicate often and honestly
2. Don't cover up important things with trivial things
3. Give a ton of value for the cost
There's still time for Anthropic to save this, but they're definitely not trending in the right direction.
@UpdatingOnRome Jesus, the old "Trump is a Nazi" garbage again? Trump is far from a perfect human, but I wish they would ACTUALLY look up what fascism actually represented
