We fixed a bug where rate limits on Claude subscriptions weren't properly adjusted for long context requests in Opus 4.7.

We've reset 5-hour and weekly rate limits. Enjoy Opus 4.7!

[Claude @claudeai]

Introducing Claude Opus 4.7, our most capable Opus model yet.

It handles long-running tasks with more rigor, follows instructions more precisely, and verifies its own outputs before reporting back.

You can hand off your hardest work with less supervision.

We're bringing the advisor strategy to the Claude Platform.

Pair Opus as an advisor with Sonnet or Haiku as an executor, and get near Opus-level intelligence in your agents at a fraction of the cost.

The Artemis II crew captured beautiful, high-resolution images of our home planet during their journey to the Moon. As @Astro_Christina put it: "You guys look great."

Showers start falling in the larger #Nairobi Metro area this evening/night. As per previous model predictions, rainfall intensity increases from tomorrow through Saturday.

Just in: short range precipitation forecast by DWD ICON model show very heavy rains south of Kiambu county and North of #Nairobi on Friday 20/03 evening into the night. Up to 70mm may fall within 3 hours, triggering a deluge.

We'll be tracking the storm as it unfolds and share further model updates as they trickle in.

No need to panic. Plan your day-to-day activities accordingly. This time around we're saving every life and property possible.

I'm Boris and I created Claude Code. Lots of people have asked how I use Claude Code, so I wanted to show off my setup a bit.

My setup might be surprisingly vanilla! Claude Code works great out of the box, so I personally don't customize it much. There is no one correct way to use Claude Code: we intentionally build it in a way that you can use it, customize it, and hack it however you like. Each person on the Claude Code team uses it very differently.

So, here goes.

When I created Claude Code as a side project back in September 2024, I had no idea it would grow to be what it is today. It is humbling to see how Claude Code has become a core dev tool for so many engineers, how enthusiastic the community is, and how people are using it for all sorts of things from coding, to devops, to research, to non-technical use cases. This technology is alien and magical, and it makes it so much easier for people to build and create. Increasingly, code is no longer the bottleneck.

A year ago, Claude struggled to generate bash commands without escaping issues. It worked for seconds or minutes at a time. We saw early signs that it may become broadly useful for coding one day.

Fast forward to today. In the last thirty days, I landed 259 PRs -- 497 commits, 40k lines added, 38k lines removed. Every single line was written by Claude Code + Opus 4.5. Claude consistently runs for minutes, hours, and days at a time (using Stop hooks). Software engineering is changing, and we are entering a new period in coding history. And we're still just getting started..

The math on this image is insane.

New Horizons transmitted at 2,000 bits per second from 3 billion miles away. Slower than a 1990s dial-up modem. It took 16 months to download all the flyby data.

The spacecraft had to hit a target box 100km wide, arriving within 150 seconds of schedule, after 9 years of flight. Miss it and the preloaded observation commands point at empty space.

Ten days before arrival, the spacecraft crashed and went into safe mode. Engineers had 72 hours to restore everything.

The probe is now 5 billion miles out, still whispering data back to Earth. We got 50 gigabits of Pluto photos using technology slower than your phone’s bluetooth.

[George T. Diano @georgediano]

For five solid years, I have served as the Chief Spokesperson of the Walala Hoiis,, the official mouthpiece of the hungry, the tired and the permanently financially unstable. I have stood against all odds to fight the oppression unleashed upon my people. In fact, I was even stripped of my dignity by this kakistocratic regime during the 2024 protests, where that illiterate mongoose from Kapseret left me matako wazi in the middle of Eldoret City like a rejected foetus.

But despite my behind becoming a public landmark, I have never wavered in our struggle for a better Kenya. Through storytelling, I have exposed our daily sufferings,, from empty pockets to empty sufurias,, and helped the voiceless pursue justice, all while operating an office that has never seen any form of financial aid. Not even a packet of mugadi to motivate the office stuff.

Now, I understand that a certain photo of me wearing a sharp GK Apparel suit and Tom Ford leather shoes from Ken Bilele loafers (check him on IG) has caused unnecessary tremors within the party. Some members have started asking whether I’m still one of them or whether I’ve defected to the “Soft Life Coalition” where daktari @mbiti_mwondi successfully ousted our short sighted Rubani @KhalifKairo.

Let me put it on record,, those items were gifted to me by our very own members who, by God’s grace, managed to escape the poverty matrix and are now enjoying the fruits of hard work and a little luck. There is absolutely no way money meant to run our office could be misused for opulence,, in fact, we don't even have money to misuse.

Therefore, I humbly call upon all Walala Hoii members to grant me another term as your SG and spokesperson come 12th of this month. Let us continue marching forward, united in suffering, hope and God’s grace. Together, we shall achieve our dreams and finally escape poverty,, even if poverty tries to escape with us. #DianoTanoFresh

I love @3blue1brown. However, the biggest beneficiaries are those who already have solid fundamentals.

Take the recent excellent video on Laplace Transforms. I wouldn't recommend starting there if you've no idea what a Laplace Transform is!

Build the fundamental skills first.

George Casella was a leading figure in modern statistics, known for his deep contributions to estimation theory, Bayesian analysis, and Monte Carlo methods. His textbook "Statistical Inference," co-authored with Roger Berger, is a cornerstone of graduate-level statistics education worldwide. He also made foundational contributions to our understanding of the Gibbs sampler and variance estimation, bridging the gap between rigorous theory and practical application.
