I still find it surprising how few people in the US talk about penpot. When you visit Europe, everyone is using it.
It is open source: penpot.app
Let's see whether Codex can estimate time to completion better than Microsoft install dialogues
"ETA: 12–18 focused implementation hours remaining"
New variant of "don't make mistakes" - "look at your changes and make sure there's no AI slop anywhere". Opus knew exactly what I meant and improved his code by a lot.

Europeans please wake up.
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

How very claude of you

Maybe European politicians just confused $ with § in their optimization target? The symbols are right next to each other on the keyboard.
I'm surprised nobody analyzed the blue vs red button from the consequentialist lens. Normalizing value(own_life)=1, it becomes
p(blue<50%)
vs
p(decisive_vote)*value(half_of_humanity)
The latter is very hard to estimate, hence there can be legitimate different opinions.
Instead of nuclear deterrence, I propose that parts of the families of all leaders (at least their kids) are forced to live in the opposing nation. Same effect, better for the environment.
Why pay for Claude Code review if you can get comparable results using GitHub MCP and prompting? Sprinkle in Serena MCP so you get better overall codebase understand (crucial for review) and you're good to go!

AI is cool and all... but a new paper in @ScienceMagazine kind of figured out the origin of life?
The paper reports the discovery of a simple 45-nucleotide RNA molecule that can perfectly copy itself.
There's a dark irony in evolution, a "scientifically literate" process that operates through billions of experiments, selecting for scientifically illiterate organisms with a strong bias towards causality. An unavoidable consequence of our tiny lifespans and a causal-enough world
Setting up a new laptop today.

This feels so silly, especially after having used uv in other projects

Serena MCP is wild — an IDE for agents like Claude Code.
Check it out:
github.com/oraios/serena
The power of community - just in the last two weeks support for the following languages was added to Serena MCP:
Dart, Kotlin, Lua, Nix, Zig and Erlang. Rust support was also much improved.
Also, Serena was added to the SuperClaude framework and is closing in on 10k stars 🎉
I'm an engineer, help me understand this:
Our OSS project Serena MCP is hotly discussed in English-speaking Reddit and Japanese-speaking X, yet almost not present in English speaking X.
Why? Would any X-codefluencer like to write a post to help us reach the English X as well?

I’ve been testing Serena, an MCP-powered "smart interpreter" that lets Claude actually understand your code’s structure & meaning.
Instead of slurping whole files, it uses LSP + an indexed project map to fetch only the relevant lines, cutting token use, speeding up res. & improv. fix accuracy.
