I make servers do things at Anchorage Digital, formerly at OpenSea, Dharma, Ripple, Varo. Native German w/ American accent. Thoughts here are my own.

@TheAhmadOsman Don’t you think it’s more of a leap to assume Huawei wouldn’t have invented this if there had been more NVIDIA chips in China? Wouldn’t there have been a mandate from the CCP anyway to ensure the country wasn’t reliant on US chips?

I’m doing this right now but by putting hermes behind istio plus an egress credential proxy. One hiccup was making sure the tls interception works for the browser tool.
I also made the proxy implement the gcp metadata endpoint api so I can avoid giving Hermes the ability to generate short term gcp creds via workload identity bindings. The proxy now returns dummy creds to the hermes pod (gcp sdks fail without creds) and enriches outbound requests with tokens it maintains.

@Teknium It feels much snappier now. Love to see the speed with which Hermes is improving

[GitHub @github]

We are investigating unauthorized access to GitHub’s internal repositories. While we currently have no evidence of impact to customer information stored outside of GitHub’s internal repositories (such as our customers’ enterprises, organizations, and repositories), we are closely monitoring our infrastructure for follow-on activity.

[Bjoern @bweidlich]

@chamath You would like what @OpenRouter is offering enterprises. They are that routing layer.

I’m not convinced bay leaves actually contribute anything

@exec_sum Does this come with armed security?

My boss's boss is like 42, never married, no kids. Earns $275-300K per year. Goes on a minimum of two international vacations a year w/ his girlfriend. 10+ days, all out.

Eats the best food, stays in top notch accomodations. Excursions, tours, nicest beaches, etc.

Great guy, I'm happy for him.

But what I've realized is that without kids, you end up chasing a lifestyle that has to continually be topped in order for you to be satisfied and find happiness.

What he and others like him don't understand is that when you have children, seeing THEM experience life's most basic things and watching their eyes light up at all the "firsts", brings greater pleasure and joy than any vacation or travel experience ever could.

Seeing THEM try blueberries for the first time is greater than dining at the best 5 star restaurant in Europe.

Seeing THEM learn how to walk is greater than walking the Great Wall of China or strolling along the most picturesque beach.

Watching THEM giggle uncontrollably at "peek-a-boo" tops any A-list comedian act.

Seeing THEIR excitement when building a fort out of cardboard boxes and making a door big enough for daddy is superior to staying at 5-star resorts.

Flying kites with THEM far outweighs excursions like parasailing or helicopter rides.

Seeing THEM perform a recital on stage for the first time is more rewarding than watching a Broadway show or top notch symphony orchestra.

-----------------

When you have children, all of a sudden you realize that life's greatest joys are not in the pursuit of things or pleasure or travel, but rather in the LOVE and bond you share with your very own image bearers.

Seeing the beauty and magnificence and wonder of life all over again for the first time through THEIR eyes and expressions gives you something the world simply cannot offer, nor even come close.

@mattjay Isn’t this the same attack vector as having a malicious internal actor? How did they compromise customers’ env vars?! That should be behind several temporary escalations.

@ClaudeDevs Where is my /buddy ?!

[MiniMax (official) @MiniMax_AI]

Introducing MMX-CLI — our first piece of infrastructure built not for humans, but for Agents.
Your Agent can read, think, and write. But ask it to sing, paint, or show you a world it's never seen — and it falls silent. Not because it doesn't understand, but because it has no mouth, no hands, no camera. Today, that changes.

MMX-CLI gives every Agent seven new senses — image, video, voice, music, vision, search, conversation — powered by MiniMax's full-modal stack, today's SOTA across mainstream omni-modal models.
One command: mmxAgent-native I/O. Zero MCP glue. Runs on your existing Token Plan.

Two lines to give your Agent a voice:

npx skills add MiniMax-AI/cli -y -g
npm install -g mmx-cli

Then tell it: "you have mmx commands available."
It'll learn the rest.

@mitchellh @doodlestein The worst is when it fails to get into an easy spot in front of a crowd of people and you just gotta do Italian hand gestures at the steering wheel to show it wasn’t you 😂

Explain to me why a model that fixes bugs should lower the present value of all future Cloudflare earnings?

[Polymarket @Polymarket]

BREAKING: Cloudflare stock crashes 13% today as Anthropic's Claude Mythos sparks “SaaS-pocalypse” fears.

[Bjoern @bweidlich]

@IterIntellectus Optimized the model to pass the test?

[Bjoern @bweidlich]

@Teknium I was able to use gpt-5.4 (via codex) in the TUI but the gateway via telegram threw errors.

[Bjoern @bweidlich]

@keithtyser @Teknium @openclaw Having the same experience

[Bjoern @bweidlich]

Wait I thought that was you 😂
