🚨 Massive controversy erupt in Wadala (East) ahead of #MumbaiMonsoon.

While private contractors were paid crores for mechanical drain cleaning, residents of LBS Nagar & Korba Salt Pans caught them using child laborers to manually haul toxic garbage out of deep nullahs with zero protective equipment.

​This isn't just a scam; it’s a criminal violation of child rights. Strict action needed NOW! 🚨

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.

@sunainajairath Thank you, Sunaina

@Subeer Lovely! Thanks Subeer. Also, this ridiculous pressure of being fascinating and remembered is so high that it takes away from the mirth of follies

[Subeer @Subeer]

@DevinaSengupta enjoyed reading your views on small talk today. “Small talk does not get its due” It’s indeed looked down upon, unfairly. But, like humour, it’s a sign of confidence and intellect. The British Navy first discovered the power of Banter.

🚨Did you select on allowances➡️ driver, uniform,children education, hostel, gym etc? These benefits are because employer can’t afford to give you in-hand cash as labour codes kicks in. Hence changes in your CTC to soften the blow. I write @livemint
