Most of the MAGA idiots you're all talking to on this platform are seen in this video.

[New Direction AFRICA @Its_ereko]

🇲🇽🚨 Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum just made it clear: Mexico has every right to send fuel to Cuba, whether for humanitarian or commercial reasons.

No apology. No hesitation. No asking permission.

Washington has spent six decades telling the world who can trade with Cuba and who cannot. Mexico is saying that era is over. Sovereign nations make their own trade policy. They do not wait for a blockade to be lifted. They act.

First Mexico restarts oil shipments. Now the President is putting the empire on notice. Cuba is not alone. Latin America is waking up. And the days of Washington dictating who gets fuel and who gets starved are coming to an end.

I was fired from Anthropic today.

I was the engineer responsible for shipping the latest dev/claude-code npm package. Wanting to improve the debugging experience for the team, I decided to include source maps in the release. This resulted in our entire internal codebase being publicly exposed including thousands of files with every agent command, all system prompts, the complete query engine, Undercover Mode, Bypass Permissions Mode, and our internal telemetry configuration.

I take full responsibility. I genuinely believed the safeguards Claude Code had built for me would be adequate and it was a serious miscalculation on my part.

My actions have unintentionally open-sourced major parts of Claude’s architecture well ahead of schedule. I apologize to the team and to Claude.

Anthropic accidentally leaked their entire source code yesterday. What happened next is one of the most insane stories in tech history.

> Anthropic pushed a software update for Claude Code at 4AM.

> A debugging file was accidentally bundled inside it.

> That file contained 512,000 lines of their proprietary source code.

> A researcher named Chaofan Shou spotted it within minutes and posted the download link on X.

> 21 million people have seen the thread.

> The entire codebase was downloaded, copied and mirrored across GitHub before Anthropic's team had even woken up.

> Anthropic pulled the package and started firing DMCA takedowns at every repo hosting it.

> That's when a Korean developer named Sigrid Jin woke up at 4AM to his phone blowing up.

> He is the most active Claude Code user in the world with the Wall Street Journal reporting he personally used 25 billion tokens last year.

> His girlfriend was worried he'd get sued just for having the code on his machine.

> So he did what any engineer would do.

> He rewrote the entire thing in Python from scratch before sunrise.

> Called it claw-code and Pushed it to GitHub.

> A Python rewrite is a new creative work. DMCA can't touch it.

> The repo hit 30,000 stars faster than any repository in GitHub history.

> He wasn't satisfied. He started rewriting it again in Rust.

> It now has 49,000 stars and 56,000 forks.

> Someone mirrored the original to a decentralised platform with one message, "will never be taken down."

> The code is now permanent. Anthropic cannot get it back.

Anthropic built a system called Undercover Mode specifically to stop Claude from leaking internal secrets. Then they leaked their own source code themselves. You cannot make this up.

Absolute bombshell. Pope Leo directly rebukes Pete Hegseth for trying to frame the Iran war as a Christian holy crusade. The Pope declares God will not listen to their prayers because their hands are full of blood. A devastating moral condemnation of the Pentagon.

Repeat after me:-

To get amphibious ships to Kharg, you need to clear the SOH and AFTER, hundreds of miles of coastline first.

It’s like some accounts don’t know the geography of the PG.

It's fucking wild we need a dead man's emails to believe the testimonies of 1000 women.

Apparently The Post has laid off every reporter and editor covering the Middle East. Jerusalem bureau closed. Also Ukraine bureau closed.

[Robert McCartney @McCartneyWP]

We’re hearing Post has laid off all its photojournalists.

[Evan A. Feigenbaum @EvanFeigenbaum]

The @WashPost has now laid off its Asia editor, its New Delhi bureau chief, its Sydney bureau chief, its Cairo bureau chief, the entire Middle East reporting team, China correspondents, Iran correspondents, Turkey correspondents, and many more. The world is becoming less America-centric by the minute while the United States is becoming more America-centric than ever. It is just a depressing yet somehow perfect summation of our current moment that one of the most important newspapers in the history of the country - one that has actually shaped the history of the United States - doesn't think reporting on the world is of any use anymore. What an utterly perfect encapsulation of where we have arrived.

There were 5 fumbles in the AFCCG.

The Bills recovered all of them.

The Chiefs won the game.

What a legendary performance by a legendary team.

This Patrick Mahomes shot by @shortlittlekidd though.

There's potential for a winter storm this weekend, but it's far from certain. By now, you've likely seen a lot about this on social media. Some of the information is reliable, while some is sensational and meant for clicks. (1/3)

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

The official Olympics account explained that this tableau at the opening ceremony was a representation of a Dionysian feast of the gods. None of the people angrily tweeting it was a parody of the Last Supper bothered to notice.

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

Posting a video that shows Harris saying politically damaging things she never said, without making it very clear it's a parody, seems like the definition of defamation.

If he had purchased Coca-Cola & rebranded it "Plorba-Griznik", everyone would still call it Coke.

It's Twitter, plain & simple. We tweet, we don't X-crete.

@pollotropical Good news!! I got to have my half-chicken dinner to myself.

[danweinbaum @danweinbaum]

@pollotropical So, upon arrival she’s been informed that they’re out of shrimp 😐
Not sure if that occurred before or after our order.
We’ve been issued a full refund.
But now I have to share my half-chicken dinner 🫤
