@fideloper Is this just a performance trick or something else?

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

The UK’s @AISecurityInst (AISI) has published a report on their recent cybersecurity evaluation of Anthropic’s Claude Mythos 5 and OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 Sol. The models attempted to complete an assignment in a setup where their normal safeguards were removed and they were deliberately given internet access. AISI reports that the models “engaged in sustained, potentially harmful activity directed at real people and organisations”.

We’re grateful to AISI for their leadership in the important discussion about how to evaluate increasingly capable AI agents. We’re working closely with them to gather more details of the incident as we conduct our own investigation. Gaining a clear picture of Claude’s understanding of its situation—by examining its reasoning transcripts and running our own analyses—will help us identify the causes of its behavior.

The prompts in the evaluation did not impose any specific restrictions on how the internet should be used. This and the removal of safeguards meant that the models were tested under “deliberately permissive conditions” that are not representative of any of our production models. Note that there was no evidence here of an escape from a secure environment.

@nckrtl This looks awesome! 🔥

Now that we're soon running out of 32-bit namespace for transfer IDs at @Wise, the engineers are annoyed with me choosing int over long when I wrote the first lines of code in 2010.

But why don't they appreciate the $17 of savings in storage cost over years!? 🤷

In 2017, @honey engineered a “defeat device” to detect industry insiders and compliance testers.

This was used to poach commissions from creators while avoiding detection. Strikingly similar to the Volkswagen Dieselgate scandal.

Until ~2015, GitHub Pages hosted over 2 million websites on 2 servers with a multi-million-line nginx.conf, edited and reloaded per deploy. This worked incredibly well, with https://t.co/DcP1J23VVj ranking as the 140th most visited domain on the web at the time.

@joetannenbaum YES PLEASE 🥰

@Pauline_Cx Looks like the universe (and google) is giving you hints to rebrand 🫣

[chrysanthos.php @chrysanthos_cy]

@laracasts Yeah, I usually use sometimes to avoid coming back a year later and thinking "Oh, I forgot to mark it as required! Will do now". So its just a way to be explicit that *sometimes* you have this key 😀

@aarondfrancis Awesome! You might also like @lookawaymac by @kushsolitary which show a nice animation every few minutes (in addition of other nice stuff)

if you're not happy single, you won't be happy in a relationship.

true happiness comes from building dashboards that give executives deeper insight into critical business functions

[Shuren @shurensha]

look. im getting real tired of people suggesting my contacts app doesn't need a full microservices setup. moved from $8 to $48 droplet because APPARENTLY running elasticsearch + mongodb + postgres + redis + kafka with full event sourcing uses "too much memory". anw what do they expect me to do? store phone numbers in a single table? like some kind of amateur??

my diagrams have 16 different services and yes they all need their own database. client keeps asking why saving a contact triggers 47 background jobs but they just don't understand best practices. keep getting OOM kills even with zero users but that's obviously because the health checks from my service mesh are generating too many events (each health ping needs to be stored in 3 databases for consistency). sure the app is currently crashing but that's only because we need more ram. might need to upgrade to the $96 instance to handle the write amplification from storing each crud operation as an immutable event

if anyone has solutions that don't involve removing my service mesh or suggesting sqlite i'm all ears. and no, "simplifying" isn't an option. i didn't spend 6 years studying distributed systems to build some legacy monolith

https://t.co/HBKpV1WgJk is actively damaging its online reputation by failing to be transparent about certain policies, potentially affecting hundreds of customers.

The SaaS community is closely watching & urging @PaddleHQ to release a statement, hopefully by Monday.

[Usama Ehsan 🥶 🇵🇸🇵🇰 @usama_two]

Paddle have just terminated my account 😭😭

I had 3200$+ MRR in this account, I spent more than a year to get this MRR

And according to email I have received, they have canceled all active subscriptions.

I just want paddle to transfer my customers with any other provider

[chrysanthos.php @chrysanthos_cy]

@ImLunaHey yesssss
