[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.

The pull-ups and punchbag kicks super set is particularly unhinged 😭😭

[michael @mikcl_]

there is also a significant group of people in the same offices who do work a lot, but are somehow immensely unproductive.

their underperformance effectively subsidises the productive members to do other things.

their salaries are averaged together

[VEO @vrexec]

I'm 38.

At this point of my life/career, I have so many friends working corporate W2 jobs making $200-400K/year (mostly in NYC/NJ/PA corridor) who just don't actually work that much.

One friend makes $250K as a manager at a biotech... all he does is send pictures of his chicken coop or other DIY projects all day during the week.. no idea what value he actually provides his company.

Then there's my "jiggler" friend who you might recall... guy makes $250-300K and just plugs a "mouse jiggler" into his laptop and just goes to the gym, homeschools his kids, tans, does yard work... all day. I ask him what he does and he can't even articulate it...

Another friend makes $150K at a remote startup and just travels around the world all the time... don't ask don't tell situation on where people are at any given time... but does seemingly little actual work.. maybe 1 hour a day.

This is truly what's going on out there... BS W2 jobs all over the place. And AI is a bubble?

Really?

Some random analyst was watching “space forecasting and insights” YouTube video on the tube

[michael @mikcl_]

On the tube, was reading someone’s Hargreaves Lansdown email , £1k minimum

As a frequent surveyor of people’s phones on the tube I’ve never seen anything like this before

Feels like at this point it’s fair to say that however bad we thought obesity was for overall health, its actually much worse

[michael @mikcl_]

Study included bmi >=25 (overweight, not just obese) too

We’ll slowly get to a social consensus that being overweight is a (terrible) choice (in the west were fat-shaming isn’t acceptable already)

[Max Marchione @maxmarchione]

New study of 111,646 women: GLP-1 use was linked to about 30% lower breast cancer incidence.

For scale, tamoxifen (the drug we prescribe to prevent it) runs about 38%, minus the endometrial cancer and clot risk.

Not proof yet, but looks very promising.

If the Gulf Stream/Amoc stops working can’t we engineer it to work?

[David Ullrich @DavidUllrich202]

Mysterious ‘cold blob’ in the Atlantic suggests the AMOC is weakening

A patch of ocean south-east of Greenland is the only place on Earth that is cooling, and it could be a sign that the warm water “conveyor belt” in the Atlantic is slowing down

@GrantHesser > All and all, this is going to be a fascinating IPO to watch but I have next to zero interest in participating - I suspect I'm in the majority here.

Imagine it skyrockets after ipo and everyone comes out the woods like “never bet against elon”
