Base Power is now live in Illinois, our first market outside of Texas.

We've helped more than 20,000 Texas homeowners lower their energy bills and back up their homes. We're bringing that same model to Chicagoland, where energy supply rates surged nearly 50% last year and continue to climb.

Most productive week of my life concluded.

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.

Access to all other Claude models is not affected.

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

How much you want to bet staffers used Claude to write this

[Chase Dowling @cpatdowling]

@clawrence @xiaowang1984 @mattyglesias That's definitely not true. His cost sensitivities are just total system capacity oriented, which is very reasonable considering how these costs are socialized.

[Chase Dowling @cpatdowling]

@xiaowang1984 @clawrence @mattyglesias I don't think you want to conflate Dx use case value with bulk system energy price signals in the first place.

[Chase Dowling @cpatdowling]

@xiaowang1984 @clawrence @mattyglesias Cart before horse. You're not going to bother with state estimation until you need it.

First high voltage transmission system was the exact same deal.

I'm at NYU tier folks I might not make it.

@clawrence If you do a copper plate dispatch of ERCOT with participant disclosed offers you observe the same thing. Especially during shoulder months transmission security and reliability constraints drive a ton the fuel mix.
