Yeah, I sort of feel like they could just do this in Claude Code for us in some way. I mean they already run some mini classifier on whether a given prompt is waiting on input, so they could do the same to detect some of these cases, and ju

Agreed, it feels like Fable is the higher strategic level thinker even if it's end capabilities are the same on benchmarks, it actually does the code that matters, and not creating a bunch of code that doesn't. But tokens.......

Your #2 is spot on. I have in fact said the same exact words to Opus about missing the forest for the trees. I have it work on some code for an inhouse ClaudeCode plugin, and it starts coding as if it will be attacked by hackers who will tr

The Sonnet 5 comment is spot on. Even Anthropic's own graph initially showed lower performance at higher costs. Only thing I notice about Sonnet 5 is that it does appear to hand off tasks to agents more frequently similar to Fable, but

I do use Claude Cowork and hence the VM is important, but I also leave the desktop app running all the time since I have many scheduled tasks at different times. The thing is that the VM could shutdown after being idle for some amount of ti

The VM itself is for Claude Cowork which does all work within the VM sandbox. That doesn't help answer why they spin it up immediately and don't have a way to disable it though. Just the "why it exists" question.

No, haven't found a killer use case for it as of now. Was only a really good personal movie theater.

So, one of the things I have personally seen is where these companies have in-house counsel and then CC that person on emails that could be problematic if they were ever required to be produced in discovery. Then if something does happen, i

What if some people's hunger is louder than others? What if your expended willpower to not overeat is a lot less than what is required by others? I ask these as that is what the GLP-1's are showing. They change the hunger feeling

I have been receiving 2-3 of these variations per day. Have been reporting them as phishing in our GSuite account, but they just keep coming.

The thing that he doesn't mention is that as soon as they do something legislatively and announce routes there, etc.....well Google just won't crawl those sites. It turns into a game of whether you would like 0 traffic from Google

Lots of good things to investigate already in the thread. I would throw in the potential for an anycast routing issue. TCP is stateful and if there is asymmetric routing, maybe the packets are coming from one anycast device, but the returni

Good thought, but switching to LTE only didn't work. Same result of ending up in SOS only. Cellular over wifi works perfectly fine though. Wish we could count on better post mortems from the phone companies, but I'm not holding my

Some of our staff are reporting similar where their partner's phone has service and their's doesn't. Both on same AT&T family plan. So the radio bands may play into it although I would think with latest iPhones, they can

It helps you eat at a caloric deficit. I wouldn't say that is starving yourself. It is basically the same mechanism for how any weight loss would work. Less calories consumed versus burned on a daily basis. There are additional mechani

Just wanted to say thanks for the clarity of how this is handled and what to do if a submitter disagrees. Really appreciate all the work you do.

Yes, I know they do some form of detection on this for up/down votes, but flagging is supposed to be for content that violates rules, so I am curious if they handle it similarly. It doesn't really help you boost content, but can s

How do you keep user flags from being used as a way to squash articles on a particular topic before they have had the chance to be exposed to the wider HN community? Meaning if someone were to theoretically get a real time feed of HN submis

Except when it's not. If you don't think groups within organizations all message each other to quickly flag posts that are negative towards them, then you may be looking through this with an idealistic lens that hasn't been s

Long overdue transparency. Sometimes these are innocuous or warranted removals, but there is also an element of protectionism at play. And that may not even be due to mod actions, but blocks of users who all flag articles to get them pushed

Yep, I think people are equating the new headset too much with VR. It is the AR aspect that is game changing. Giant, better than 4k monitor for my macbook pro while still being able to see and interact with people in the room, yes please.
