I've been working in the same codebase for a week now on the Claude $200/mo plan and I'm definitely seeing the same drop-off in quality and reduction in limits that everyone else is. This happened after a pretty rough few weeks for Anthropic, presumably a result of surging demand.

Hey, the guy who does all those incredible AI generated Kraftwerk videos is about to do "Computer Love", he has put out a request for anyone who wants their name or initials to be in new the video. See the comments. youtu.be/L7yE9zmtciE?si=u0H0…

Hey @BillKristol ! Big fan... tiny thing... I think the camera you're using for your Bulwark content is focused on your bookshelf. Your face is slightly blurred. Carry on!!!

Big fan of your podcast, @michaelshermer , but the explosive, intrusive ads are getting to be a bit much. Can you somehow select more tone and audience appropriate ad content? And maybe even take a pause for them, rather than have them crash in mid word?

A great talk by @marian_verhelst on possible options for doing extremely efficient Edge AI. She describes current architectures and how we could move forward. youtu.be/35BWC4_SY-8?si=oPWV…

Touchscreen works!

The Soft Robotics Podcast is a joy to listen to, @MarwaEldiwiny. A small request? Please consider ceasing the practice of having your guest's audio mixed into only one channel. This headphone listener finds it very uncomfortable - like the other ear has gone deaf!

Protests in Marseille. Looks like accelerants poured into trashcans and dumpsters. Lit on fire and then pushed down the streets.

ChatGPT does WAVEDROM! (This first attempt is a very good start!) @wavedrom

Starting with an #icebreaker, it's amazing what you can make. Alien silicon! #midjourney (Thanks, @esden)

Hey @whitequark and @OlofKindgren - do you think there's any chance that Fusesoc will support CXXRTL in the not too distant future? Thank you both for what you do!!

Hey @PGE_SactoSierra - power is out again (17h after the last one) and 4th in 3 weeks. Can I urge some more transparency? Why can't we see detailed incident reports, photos, analysis? "Your Power's Out" and "Your Power's Back On" messages do not inspire trust or confidence.
