At least you got them. I'm still at the "We will send you an email to do a final shipment confirmation once ready" stage.

All they're saying to the other players is: let's lock it down and slice up the market between us. Claiming Skynet is just around the corner is a great way to get the public to believe only these huge companies can harness AI, and

I use MCPs all the time, but just like in your case: they're my own MCP servers. They do exactly what I want and how I want it. They expose just the information and the features I want the LLM to have. And just like in your case, it co

It is a bit weird. As someone from Belgium (we also use our own variety of Azerty) you are very frequently reminded that you're on a weird keyboard. At least for someone who games, you wouldn't make ZQSD the default. It's the

So including me, you're like the fourth person in this section to get it on the second turn. That's peculiar.

Meanwhile every time their servers go down, your caches go down with it and you can pay for your entire context again. This sucks even harder when you like to use parallel subagents.

It's been a while since the last reset. I think we're due one. Though I would prefer they just extend the +50% usage limit forever, it's been so long I can not imagine lossing a third of my current usage.

Does Claude's grep still prepend the relative path of the file before _every_ single line? Because that is nasty, especially in java projects.

Having Opus 5 on top of Fable is even more suspicious. Whatever this is measuring, I do not care. Opus 5 is shite compared to Fable.

Out of my 7 simultaneous sessions (my usage limit reset is tomorrow, so I have some lesser important projects to use my tokens on) there is still 1 session purring on. So there's at least 1 little Claude server still running.

No matter how good compaction is, on some big projects it needs to read a lot of files. In my experience the first 200.000 tokens go FAST, but after that it slows down. Most of my Fable sessions don't go over 500.000 tokens, I don

I tried using `/goal` when it just came out, but back then they used Haiku for it. And if your main model is a 1M model, Haiku can't even read that much. So my /goal always failed. (I instead went for an elaborate /loop-

I think the improvement on how it codes is pretty much represented correctly by the benchmarks (a nice bump, but not some crazy leap) But where it really shines is in how NOT lazy it is. Fable requires less hand-holding. And I can understan

I thought it was just Opus 4.7 and 4.8 that did this. Do other models do this too? Anyway: in my case Opus absolutely did not follow a similar instruction in the CLAUDE.md file. (But then again: it hardly followed _any_ CLAUDE.md instructio

That's not true, but it's their own fault for being so utterly terrible at communication. It only drops back to Opus for some prompts, just like before. The longer blogpost was a bit less vague about this.

Before Fable got pulled, they claimed their goal really was to keep it around in the subscriptions in some way, they just didn't know when it would return. This time there isn't even a single mention of this. It's just "

But LLMs aren't just shuffling words around. Words (tokens) are the "human interface" at the edges. Text input gets embedded, then there's this huge latent-space computation in the middle, and only at the tail end does t
