A few patterns we frequently use with Fable 5:
Use Fable 5 as an "advisor."
An executor (Sonnet 5) calls Fable 5 for guidance.
Most tokens are billed at the lower executor rate.
Cortisol clears from your bloodstream in about 20 minutes if you sit still and breathe. Most people re-trigger it every few minutes by checking their phone. That's why you feel exhausted from a day where nothing happened. Your body never got to control the stress.
New in Claude Code: /checkup
Run /checkup to:
1. Clean up unused skills/MCPs/plugins and save context
2. Dedup your local CLAUDE.md against the checked in CLAUDE.md
3. Break up root CLAUDE.md into nested CLAUDE.md's + skills
4. Turn off slow hooks
5. Update your Claude Code to the latest version
6. Enable auto mode by default
7. Pre-approve frequently denied read-only commands
.. And a few other goodies.
/checkup confirms with you before making any changes. Enjoy!
“If there is a deflation of the AI bubble, the optimists say that the new infrastructure will remain even if the companies do not — just as railways survived the 19th-century railway bust. However, this fails to reckon with the reality of depreciation (few pieces of silicon hold their value for very long because better chips inevitably come along) and the possibility that LLMs could be displaced by more efficient models less dependent on massive numbers of expensive AI chips.
In placing massive hyperscaling bets, investors are setting lavish expectations about future earnings. But LLMs are not likely to replicate the near monopolies that have made the market power of current tech giants hard to assail. A better analogy for them might be airlines, which are hobbled by small margins, intense competition, high expenses and dependence on hardware created by outside vendors.”

Micron's market cap is up about $150 billion today. Apple's market cap is down about $210 billion. Almost a perfect value re-allocation hinging on memory.
The top 3 principles of cognitive weightlifting:
Retrieval practice
Mastery learning
Spaced repetition
i.e., Do the reps, use the right weight, and stay consistent.
A super long overdue (3+ years?) post on scaling laws.
Compute is expensive. Scaling laws are a way to help us reason about the optimal compute allocation between data and model size before committing to a large run.
The post covers what scaling laws predict, how compute-optimal allocation works, why Kaplan et al. and Chinchilla disagree, and how data limits + fitting details make extrapolation tricky.

Agentic coding forces you to design clean interfaces and document them well. An agent cannot read the implicit mental model shared by your engineering team, it can only read your API contracts and docstrings.
Lee Kuan Yew:
“Air conditioning was a most important invention for us, perhaps one of the signal inventions of history. It changed the nature of civilization by making development possible in the tropics. Without air conditioning you can work only in the cool early-morning hours or at dusk. The first thing I did upon becoming prime minister was to install air conditioners in buildings where the civil service worked. This was key to public efficiency."
integrity is the ultimate aphrodisiac
there is nothing more attractive than someone with character and moral nerve who consistently does what they say they're going to do
the highest form of intellectualism is not a cynical grinding philosophizing looping..
it is lightness. it is childlike curiosity, play, whimsy, joy. it is a rejection of the minds narrow traps, an expansion into deeper knowings
