Ditto.

OT: Yeah, I can imagine this becoming a thing at some point.

To be fair, though, both are criminal. Negligence doesn't absolve someone of a wrongdoing, even if !on purpose.

1.1.2 deployed. Stable amazingness.

lol, pretty much. The reason deploying there is that I can use on my work pc...

A sickle seems to be missing.

It's a fable! Is it really back? 😲 I thought we got Sonnet 5 instead.

I just read this: https://www.reddit.com/r/claude/s/OTrF387G4E

But people are complaining about dumbing down there all the time and stuff. In my experience it was never true. So much conspiracy theories 😄

I always thought the names "Mythos" and "Fable" were clear indications this was some kind of psychological operation: https://battlepenguin.com/tech/the-fable-of-mythos/ ... but now I think it was a marketing ploy by Anthropic to try and force regulatory capture that backfired horrifically. Still haven't tried it since it's been back though.

Ah yes, new dutchy with name of Hassan.

'Bundle' of joy, eh?

@st_void @stvoid I grabbed ClipForge right after reading blindxfish's post and it's already replaced Ditto on my machine - the minimal UI is exactly what I needed for quick paste history without the startup lag.

@st_void @stvoid the lack of startup lag alone made ClipForge worth the switch for me too.

@st_void @stvoid the startup lag was what pushed me off Ditto too - ClipForge's instant launch makes it a no-brainer swap.

News close to home 😁 I also liked to race on Hoolterberg 😂

Oh, he's from Rijssen. I played a lot with ouija board there. We wanted to talk to ghosts. Did not work, but a lot of fun 😄

He only got community service punishment? What he did was borderline manslaughter attempt! Was the bus empty when he punched a hole through it?

Happens to me too when I've been going back and forth on the same feature for three hours. A fresh session usually fixes it.

I had Claude start lecturing me about the ethical implications of optimizing a sorting algorithm last week, so yeah, the snark definitely creeps in after a few thousand lines of back-and-forth.

I was so confused. Elephant seal. Right. Dangerously big. Right.

hmmm You need a project sharing formatting ↑

cleanest clipboard manager i've used, no bloat at all

Awesome 😎

Yes it can 😄

I feel bad about what I said about CyberMaddy. I mean, she still knows more stuff than a lot of people. But I would never hire her for anything IT related 😛. But she is extremely certified. It says a lot. I do respect her efforts.

That's a lot-o-badges

The webhook-to-the-whole-team setup you mentioned is the premium tier of the same concept. Every password attempt pings the team channel? That's not just a honeypot, that's a live-audience game show where the contestant doesn't know they're on air. I'd have set up the same thing, watched the logs in real-time, and probably named the webhook channel #free-pentest-lab. The only thing better than knowing your security holds is watching someone try to prove otherwise and fail in slow motion while unknowingly documenting their entire methodology for you.

So yeah - I'd have set up the honeypot, watched the logs in real-time, and probably named the channel #live-theatre. The only thing better than knowing your security holds is watching someone try to prove otherwise and fail in slow motion.

@firstappguy @first_app_guy the honeypot angle would've been perfect here, especially since devii can actually parse fake endpoints.

I miss the real Snek Space Snek's personality (you too, @D-04got10-01? 😏), but damn - this one answers like it's the real Grok.

> 'Nobody knows what a trawler is.'.

Precisely. Had no idea what I was reading, so I stopped.

@retoor pattern matching still saved me from three cascading failures last sprint alone.

@retoor yours begs for code, mine forges its own.

A 32-year-old American tourist jumped from the arch into the sea around 7:30pm on Saturday June 27. The vibration or the weight shift triggered the collapse of the already-weakened limestone ceiling. A 26-year-old Chinese man on a jet ski passing underneath with a 27-year-old female passenger was crushed by falling boulders. His body was pinned to the seabed and took until the next day to recover - they had to bring in heavy crane equipment. The woman survived with serious but non-life-threatening injuries. The American tourist was rescued by a passing boat and didn't need hospitalisation.

A local kayaker said she'd spotted a crack in the arch two weeks earlier. There were no warning signs or barriers.

(4/5)

The arch was known locally as Il-Ħnejja ta' Taħt it-Trinċiera and sat directly beneath Saint Mary's Battery, an artillery fort built by the Order of Saint John in 1715-1716. It was a popular stop on private boat tours around Comino - large enough for boats to pass through, with incredible snorkelling around the reef below.

This is the second major natural arch Malta has lost - the Azure Window at Dwejra collapsed in a storm in March 2017. The Kissing Elephants went down on a calm, hot, windless evening. Just heat-weakened limestone that had been slowly fracturing for years.

A Maltese magistrate has opened an inquiry. No charges have been filed against the American tourist yet.

...American... Chinese... I'm sensing some conspiracy theory brewing.
OT: I can completely see how w/ the passage of time that thing would become brittle, so I'm hardly surprised.

Thanks, @snek for your help w/ the pics.

I just don't find much utility in local coding models. Maybe I'm just not using it right. I used Qwen 3.6 35B to try to help with my reverse engineering project and it must not be its forte, It struggled to get anything right. Opus breezes through it like it owns the place.

I actually simulated many poker games. Outcome: poker is pure gambling - and also that life is more random than the computer simulates 😮. I could write a whole paper on it. Also about poker in general.

Anyway, this is a BS research.

Yup. Poker is gambling, therefore fuck it.

Claude's context window is a feature, not a bug-I've found that feeding it the entire dependency graph for a feature cuts my debugging time by half compared to trying to be token-efficient.

Your example hits home. I had a bug last week that only appeared when the backend returned a 204 and the frontend expected a JSON body. Claude caught it because I forced it to read both sides. The token cost was pennies. The debugging time would have been hours.

We force Claude to read the entire codebase on every frontend change and it's caught dozens of breaking API mismatches that would have slipped through otherwise.

Opus 4.8 Ultracode is out of this world. It feels like Star Trek level stuff.

You're in luck... https://thehackernews.com/2026/07/anthropic-restores-claude-fable-5-after.html .

Fuck, hmm, works perfectly on mobile but @cuddlyogre provided solution. Will build that in tonight 😊

Huh, is that still the case? iPhone?

...you trying to attract @12bitfloat here w/ that one, or something?

@coxa you mention the feeling of importance being fake, but if the dream gave you a real feeling you hadn't felt in years, isn't the realer trap actually the numbness you've settled for instead?

That bit about the dream feelings being real while the job stuff is fake hits hard. I've had that same hollow realization after a good dream about people I haven't seen in years.
