LOL, good luck keeping feature parity for both code bases. I moved to Flutter which has been a great experience so far.
This is what usually happens when you put people in charge who can't be trusted to bear the weight of the power entrusted into them. I wish there was a mandatory sociopath test every C-hole is obliged to take.

Google doesn't care. They advertise online betting to kids, because those platforms now have some "free" online games.

Re:Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1 on Friday September 04, 2026 @07:36AM (#49563206)
I can confirm, that bullshitter mode has reached now Fable too.

I had to switch to Fable, because Opus has become completely unreliable. Just now while working on a specific task, Fable made changes completely unrelated to the task and introduced new regressions.

Fable now talks complete nonsense.

I do not understand why Anthropic is so focussed in squeezing a few fractions out of benchmarks, while at the same time making the life of developers insufferable. I am seriously considering ditching Anthropic and moving to something else.

The thing that I describe as bullshitter mode is starting to feel extremely unproductive for me. I spend more time making Claude code do what I want than before!

Re:Is it just me, or has Claude Opus gotten worse recently? on Tuesday September 01, 2026 @05:35AM (#49519845)
It's good at polishing English text!

Is it just me, or has Claude Opus gotten worse recently?

Since the recent updates, I have the feeling that Claude Opus is becoming dumber on complex tasks.Things that used to work cleanly in a single prompt now fail completely. In coding workflows, it constantly ignores mandatory CLAUDE.md project rules, makes unsolicited edits to unrelated files, and breaks working code. It starts arguing based on stale comments, fails to update documentation when...

When you look at an application in your Applications folder (like Safari or Microsoft Word), macOS makes it look and act like a single file or icon. But if you were to right-click (or control-click) on that app and select "Show Package Contents", you would see the truth: it is actually a folder structure.

On my Mac, every sudo requires either my fingerprint or password, and times out immediately.
It's beautiful to see Einstein's work still being validated.
I strongly believe generative AI is going to change this equation. Not only will it lower the cost for studios, it will also enable gamers to make adjustments to games within pre-defined parameters.
Wouldn't it be easier to build an open hardware/source alternative to Ring cameras.

Re:Claude Sonnet 5 on Friday July 03, 2026 @09:13AM (#48774631)
I switched to Sonnet 5.

My impression is, that Claude tries to use more and more tokens. E.g. doing playwright with screenshots for things that i could have easily confirmed. Doing unneccessari ntermediate builds with tons of logs to process, ...

Honestly, after the first good impression such behavior makes me start losing trust in Anthropic.

You definitely want to get rid of your M3 Ultra before the M5 Ultra get officially announced.
If you try to text an Android number from your Mac and the "Send" button is grayed out or the message fails, it usually means a setting called Text Message Forwarding is turned off on your iPhone.
It's the same issue with Tesla collecting camera feeds through their cars to use it for macbine learning.

Those videos can also be a used to track people. IMHO each Tesla owner sending video data to Tesla's data centers is violating privacy laws!

That's not correct, at least not here inEurope.

You can disable saving your activity In this case you chat's win't be stored or used.

If you use Gemini through Google Workspace, all chat's won't leave the workspace environment and won't be used for LLM training (as of now).

That's not correct. If you didable activity your data won't be used. You eon't have daved chats and can inly have one.
It's very simple. Parents can configure parental controls on their children's devices.

I personally think, Facebook and Twitter need to be taken down because Zuckerberg and Musk are using the ppatform to interfere with politics.
