After discount is over:

38% left of my Codex weekly limits. And I’ve mostly only been using 5.4 xhigh. 4 days left on the weekly quota.

Bye bye good times!

[Faruq 🍉 @ruqqq]

Because of the resets, having codex subscription past 2 weeks have been quite worth it imo

Some of you noticed limits drained faster in Codex, we root caused it to an optimization that we rolled back that had an impact on cache hit rates when compacting across long running sessions.

We fixed this and have now reset usage limits for all accounts. Enjoy the weekend.

Inconceivably evil.

This shocking photo shows an Israeli soldier marketing his jewelry business by using a Palestinian father who was arrested by the Israeli army from his home last night during a West Bank raid.

This is what the Israeli occupation in the West Bank looks like.

@badlogicgames Have you tried @haxiom_io ? Meant for team docs, but they built multiplayer around markdown

I don't think people understand the gravity of the situation as the UN is preparing for possible nuclear weapon use in Iran.

This is a picture of Tehran. For you uneducated, untraveled, never-served, warhawks licking your chops at the thought of bombing it. It's not some low population desert. There are families, children, family pets. Regular working class people with dreams. You're sick to want war.

Tehran is a city of nearly 10,000,000 people. Imagine nuking Washington, Berlin, Paris, London, or beyond, bombed with nuclear weapons.

I gave up my diplomatic career to leak this information. I suspended my duties so as not to be part of or a witness to this crime against humanity, in an attempt to prevent a nuclear winter before it is too late.

Yesterday, nearly ten million people protested “No Kings” in the United States. The possibility of the use of nuclear weapons must be taken very seriously. It's dangerous. Act now. Spread this message worldwide. Take the streets. Protest for our humanity and future. Only the people can stop it. History will remember us.

I remember in Gaza, Israel sent a Palestinian prisoner to ask people to leave a hospital before they flatten it. Told him to come back or they blow it up with everyone in it.

The guy went and found his mother also stuck in the hospital. Passed the message and started going back to the IDF soldiers.

Halfway on the way a sniper shot him in the head.
His mother witnessed it. The video is also available.

His work was done.

A clip that left the world in disbelief and horror.
Israel did this.

@MOSSADil Can we have more of these anti depressants please?

Added this to my on the go code review workflow!

@wzulfikar Mostly Opus. But Kimi 2.5 sometimes

[Faruq 🍉 @ruqqq]

Been working with OpenClaw for a while. Just realized it runs on Pi underneath.

Then I found Armin's post. https://t.co/vzvVNex9Uk

Software writing its own software. Installed immediately. It just clicked.

Updates as I learn.

[Faruq 🍉 @ruqqq]

Having used Kimi 2.5 for a few days, I'm fairly certain they trained on Claude's data.

Family dinner about AI. My 60-year-old dad asked what course to take for a better job.
We explained AI isn't a career—it's a skill that amplifies existing roles. Like Excel in the 90s.

The one skill he should learn? Prompt engineering.

Any good apps for learning AI literacy?

The amount of crap I get for putting out a hobby project for free is quite something.

People treat this like a multi-million dollar business. Security researchers demanding a bounty.
Heck, I can barely buy a Mac Mini from the Sponsors.

It's supposed to inspire people. And I'm glad it does.

And yes, most non-techies should not install this.
It's not finished, I know about the sharp edges.
Heck, it's not even 3 months old.
And despite rumors otherwise, I sometimes sleep.

Been building with Claude Code for over half a year now.

The pattern that works: I control the architecture. Claude fills in the details.

Clear ownership. Clear boundaries.

Most of the time, it just works.

[Faruq 🍉 @ruqqq]

The AI mass write code at 10x speed.

I mass review code at 0.1x speed.

Perfectly balanced.
