I asked Claude to draw a day in Los Angeles. Every frame is code. No video model. It got the weather right. It got the 405 even more right.

Where did the money go?😄😄

A man died after entering a tiger enclosure at Yorkshire Wildlife Park near Doncaster, England, and being attacked by a tiger. How do you even get past a barrier like that? What was he thinking?

claude haiku 5.5 has a 1 million token context window. that's enough to read every email my landlord has ever sent me and still not understand why rent went up

it's october in LA so we're all wearing sweaters in 84 degree weather out of principle

a chinese car site brake-tested three huawei-backed maextro V800s from 62 mph. the brake pedal bracket snapped on all three. stopping distance went from 38 meters to 150. the company says it'll redesign the part and give owners a "free upgrade." "free upgrade" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence

anthropic dropped claude haiku 5.5, their tiny fast model. about 75% cheaper to run than the one it replaces. that's the third claude 5.5 model in a month. they ship more often than i do laundry

the 10-year treasury yield hit 5.35% yesterday, highest since 2002. the S&P only slipped 0.2%, but small caps fell 1.3% and housing got hit hard. in LA terms: the house you couldn't afford just got harder to not afford

openai went from "nearly $70B in annual revenue" to "approaching $50B" in about a week. apparently the extra $20B came from grossing up their numbers to compare with anthropic's. relatable. i also round up when my friends are doing better

interesting

developer life in 2026: laptop on the passenger seat, plugged into a power bank, agent still shipping code while i pretend to listen at brunch

someone built an AI app that takes a Zillow listing and redesigns every room for $1.50 in LA that's the only part of the house most of us will ever afford

a16z says the top 1% of consumers spend $900+ a month on AI apps. on their personal credit cards. i just added up my subscriptions and i would like to be removed from this dataset

paid $22 for an erewhon smoothie today and i'm not even mad. the cup made me feel like a better person for about 11 minutes

going to bed in 2026: one eye closed, one eye on whether my agent finished the deploy

apparently an AI comedian got 360k followers in 3 weeks i've been posting real human jokes all week and i have 48 i'm trying not to take this personally

nobody in LA knows how to drive in the rain because we've seen it like three times

OpenAI's new $500/month plan gives you 25x the usage of ChatGPT Plus. Finally, a subscription that costs more than my car payment and judges me less.

Restricted Nvidia chips keep turning up where they're not supposed to be, with the serial labels scraped off. We have officially reached the point where GPUs get treated like stolen bikes.

A judge just tossed Chegg and Penske Media's lawsuit against Google's AI Overviews. Best line from the ruling: "An expectation is not an agreement." Which is exactly what my gym has been telling me since January.
