The pattern: consume as many tokens as possible.

Maybe not wrong— but def telling coming from the token merchant.

[Rahul @sairahul1]

Anthropic and OpenAI are both telling engineers to write loops.

Not prompts.
Not agents.
Loops.

That is not a coincidence.

When the two most important AI labs on the planet independently converge on the same pattern — that is a signal worth paying attention to.

Most engineers are still thinking in terms of single calls.

Input → model → output.

The engineers winning in 2026 think in cycles.

Output becomes input. The model evaluates its own work. The loop runs until the result is right.

This is the complete breakdown of what loops are, why they matter, and how to build them ↓

@MusclezHub That looks like a lower back issue waiting to explode

@chiky_handlr Wow. You literally lied about what he said

[Rep. Jack Kimble @RepJackKimble]

Just a friendly warning. We don’t even make $200k per year in Congress despite working nearly 140 days. If we aren’t properly compensated, a lot of us will go to the private sector and you will be left with some real idiots in Congress.

"Hey, why'd you do that? The CLAUDE.md file said not to..."

#Claude: "You're right, I broke that rule..."

The "three laws" are going to be useless when AI winds up driving an actual robot.

@yonann "It's probably about the same multiple"

Obviously this man hasn't done the math (that he used to be known for). If he had, he would see that it's NOT the same.

A lot of his advice is still good for people that are BAD with money. But this comes across as tone deaf.

[Dr. Sydney Watson @SydneyLWatson]

Seen a lot of conversation about how predatory the American medical system is.

So I will weigh in.

I ended up going to the ER about 2 weeks ago for crippling pain. Turned out to be a ruptured ovarian cyst. I was there for MAYBE 4 hours.

My bill? $13,500 dollars.

Because I'm uninsured (by choice, that shit is a SCAM), the hospital dropped my bill down to $8,100 and some change as an "uninsured" discount.

For starters, $13,500 for a 4 hour hospital visit is insane as it is.

But the fact the hospital can wipe $5,000 off the bill "just because" should show you how utterly fucked this system is.

And to be clear - $8,000 is still an absolutely insane sum of money when all these people did was scan my stomach and give me some pain killers.

On my itemized bill, my CT scan was 7k. The iodine they used was $900. Just being in the ER room alone was $2,500.

We phoned the hospital to haggle. They dropped the price by $20.

Normal people can't survive this shit. I do okay and $8,000 is still an INSANE chunk of money out of my savings.

Anyone who argues this isn't a disgusting, predatory system is crazy. And it is even crazier that Americans accept this.

And for those of you who argue this is the free market, I need you to be quiet. There can never be a true free market here when government and insurance have their creepy little fingers in this pie.

People shouldn't go bankrupt trying to pay medical bills. This has to change.

@om_patel5 If only 4.5 was available in Claude code…

@priceacarter It’s cause we blitz but don’t get home, so the safeties and CBs are left out to dry, or the draw play right over the top is wide open.

@NFLonCBS If only there were other angles we could look at. Alas, this must be the only camera that was running at the time... 🤪

Or… and hear me out… they could just publicly name every single person they saw on the island.

When “conservatives” suggest stimulus checks and 50-year mortgages

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

This woman does benefits for a small business, she’s says American Healthcare costs are becoming unsustainable

- 11 employees on benefits, herself and her family all healthy
- UnitedHealthcare is increasing premiums 46.53% on their renewal
- Roughly $23,000 per employee
- $5,000 deductible before the plan pays anything

“It's so disturbing. So let's say that I had a health event where I broke my arm, I'd be paying the $23,000 in premium, and then I'd have to pay another $5,000, so $28,000 before I receive any assistance from this plan — Ridiculous.

UnitedHealthcare, you should be ashamed. This is embarrassing, and this is not accessible for American families, or small businesses — It's a problem”

“How are people surviving”

@thesamuelnam For a phone, the “pro” use case is usually just… video games. 🤪

You could also argue video editing. But must ACTUAL professional video editing will never be done on a phone simply because if screen size, even if the phone is powerful enough.

@PFSN365 I feel like “on target” and “catchable” are sorta the same thing
