@financialfree42 Close-knit communities, extended families, etc. did a lot of heavy lifting.
With the new atomic families and everyone moving everywhere, raising children is left to only 2 parents.
New blog: Building agents that reach production systems with MCP.
When should agents use direct APIs vs CLIs vs MCP? Plus patterns for building MCP servers, context-efficient clients and pairing MCP with skills.

@ellev3n11 Well done for producing a good model.
But people regard Opus 4.6 at such a high degree (and rightfully so) that Opus, is the benchmark of benchmarks. So either the benchmarks are flawed, or the model was benchmaxxed and isn't as good in real world use.
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei told employees on Friday that the OpenAI-Pentagon deal was "safety theater" and the Trump administration didn't like Anthropic because it hadn't "given dictator-style praise to Trump."
He expressed skepticism at the safeguards OpenAI touted.
@Be_Believing This happens in Germany all the time. I was carrying two big bags one on each hand, and a person stood up from his chair to open the door for me. So that I don't have to drop any of the bags?! I was speechless. And this is so contagious. I'm a professional door opener now
@ibuildthecloud@jetpack_john > The entire conflict between Anthropic and the DoW is about control.
It is not. It is about the tech not being used for:
- Mass domestic surveillance and
- Fully autonomous weapons
@ibuildthecloud@jetpack_john You're taking a position without knowing what "supply chain risk" means. Meanwhile there's a concrete example you can look up.
You're reading between the lines of Dario. But taking government officials at face value when it suits you, and dismissing them when it doesn't...
@ibuildthecloud@jetpack_john This tech doesn't have the common sense of a child. It cannot be trusted with autonomous weapons. Adding that to a contract is a no-brainer. Opposing it is foolish.
@ibuildthecloud@jetpack_john Punish them because they know how unreliable this tech is? Putting aside your false claims.. you work in this space. You've heard of prompt injection. Imagine someone raising a board saying "They lied to you, we are the Americans" and the weapon turns back and shoots its own folk
@ibuildthecloud@jetpack_john if this really is just a contract disagreement, they'd walk away from the deal.
Instead they designated Anthropic a supply chain risk, ordered every federal agency to drop them, and told all military contractors to cut ties. An existential threat to Anthropic.
@ibuildthecloud@gaieges There's a question waiting for you in the other thread. I'd be happy to see at least one concrete argument, not claims about what is or isn't lawful, as though you're the arbiter of that.
