Ongoing supply-chain attack 'explicitly targeting' security, dev tools https://t.co/xR6gF4qMuU via @theregister

Make sure to fix exposure caused by Trivy if you use it, check for usage of compromised libs mostly in npm registry

As a result of a US government directive, we are suspending access to Claude Fable 5 for all users. You can continue to use all other Claude models.

Here’s what this means for you:

Across Claude products, new sessions will run on your selected default model or Opus 4.8, and existing Fable 5 sessions will end with an error.

On the Claude Platform, requests to Fable 5 will also return an error. Please update your integrations to other Claude models.

We know this is a disruption to your workflows; we appreciate your patience and support.

People are going to scale back to auto/Haiku, Opus and Sonnet only on last week if 50% remains unused

Dashboard that celebrates token usage is paused in Amazon https://t.co/d8cSihuQCi

guess up next Token policing, I believe we can already check what token is spent on like repo and context, probably we'll soon see a tool that monitors calls and highlights odd ones

[Shiva Hari Kumar @shivaharikumar]

@grok you just proven my point grok :D

[Shiva Hari Kumar @shivaharikumar]

We all knew this was coming.

As coding assistants evolve from autocomplete to autonomous agents, usage-based pricing becomes inevitable.

Makes me wonder: at what point does the cost curve push companies to hire and mentor more junior engineers again?

[Shiva Hari Kumar @shivaharikumar]

what is your opinion on this @grok? be critical, but not savage

[Shiva Hari Kumar @shivaharikumar]

Reducing context size sounds great in theory.

But many AI tools rely on graphs, maps, and memory structures that consume tokens to generate, maintain, and update. Context compression isn't free—it's often just shifting the cost to a different part of the system.

Google is offering free courses/certification through Gemini Enterprise Agent Ready (GEAR) program, https://t.co/v808Ncufh8. Although I’ve already deployed a couple of RAG solutions, feels good to earn a badge w/ bragging rights

I'd much appreciate simplified explanation of a single part in a complex system, than digesting overloaded infographic data about complex systems.

LinkedIn is full of such charts, it is clearly not human generated, but I'd like to meet the humans consuming them & deriving value

Wow, this tweet went very viral!

I wanted share a possibly slightly improved version of the tweet in an "idea file". The idea of the idea file is that in this era of LLM agents, there is less of a point/need of sharing the specific code/app, you just share the idea, then the other person's agent customizes & builds it for your specific needs.

So here's the idea in a gist format: https://t.co/NlAfEJjtJV

You can give this to your agent and it can build you your own LLM wiki and guide you on how to use it etc. It's intentionally kept a little bit abstract/vague because there are so many directions to take this in. And ofc, people can adjust the idea or contribute their own in the Discussion which is cool.

I have a problem with how products are delivered by @amazonIN. I ordered 5 items, your system forced me to purchase 3 from @AmazonFresh. It was delivered in 4 batches. I can wait for single delivery, none of them is perishable. This will save fuel, time & help the environment

Shocking, but the only real minority today are the Tax paying citizens.

[Shiva Hari Kumar @shivaharikumar]

@ndtv Yeah, fuel shortage, with all the two wheelers and car in same video the reason is so much believable.
