Technically right is the best kind of right? He resigned from OpenAI to join Anthropic in May; it's Anthropic he resigned from just before making the announcement being discussed in this article.

ENTIC and ORIZ would make more orthographic sense... or 4entic5 and 4oriz5, inverting the k8s, i18n pattern... pronounced "forentics" and "forizes"... somebody stop me!

Little extra "fun" anecdote: my building has two banks of eight elevators, each servicing 20 or so floors, and has six destination dispatch kiosks: one at each end and the middle of each bank. The kiosks originally had nice metal

I have done this for years – it looks much better to me than an em dash – so it's nice to have some authority to cite! Especially unspaced—this is just way too close—I can't even read it.

My 55" LG Wallpaper signage display is pretty much perfect – it just has HDMI in from an Apple TV and never bothers me. But, it takes ~10 seconds to turn on after a signal is detected, since it was never meant to be turned off!

Well, yeah – if the door's open for 30 seconds with no-one in the seat. How long should that battery-powered vehicle try to air condition the entire planet before giving up? If the driver wants a cold cabin, why don't they close t

Citing Aphyr's analysis of a pre-release version of Redis-Raft as though it applied to a shipped product is so disingenuous as to invalidate this whole post. The very next sentence after the one he quoted is > We emphasize, again,

You don't need an ORM for any of that, just a query builder. In Python e.g. you can use SQLAlchemy Core instead of the SQLAlchemy ORM.

I think they meant "evoked", for which Merriam Webster has 1: to call forth or up: such as a: to bring to mind or recollection b: to cite especially with approval or for support

Yeah, same – mine gives Claude a proxy to the host's Docker socket that disallows mounting anything outside the dev dirs or starting a --privileged container, so it can run tests. https://github.com/nicwolff/claude

Hi, using the app now and it's been great fun. (Now if my wife would actually take an exit so we could eat!) However, we're on 290 E and it's showing me the exits that are behind us – as if it thinks we're westbound. Is

And for my iPod touch! I was prepared to keep using it around the house – it's so much lighter than a phone – but I was worried about leaving it logged into iCloud Keychain if it wasn't going to get this fix.

The "funniest" thing about this is that in any other context , this administration absolutely insists that everyone should be called only by their legal name, not any other name that they prefer because they think it better sui

I'm excited for my preorder – but realistic in my expectations: it just won't integrate well with Apple tech. https://ericmigi.com/blog/apple-restricts-pebble-from-being-... It'll never be able to react

It's a bit more than zero, because I have substantial tooling around Claude Code – subagents, skills, containerization, &c – that I'd have to (have Opus...) reimplement.

And they had it solved! 3D Touch worked perfectly – you pushed the screen hard to get a cursor, moved it to the start of the selection, and pushed hard again to drag to the end. They killed it because "not all iPhones had the hardware

Mockingbird, by Walter Tevis (who wrote The Hustler and The Color of Money, and Queen's Gambit, and The Man Who Fell To Earth – quite an oeuvre!) has long been one of my favorite books and it's been eerie to see how right he was a
