3 hours ago I had an idea to write a little cli that would help me clean up stray tools left over from installing too many projects to test and now I have a 1000+ line spec for a TUI named Sentinel and Claude is churning away the 6 phase plan.

Sorry to realize this but I asked Claude to write a spec for some improvements to a small code base and what it delivered was far more rigorous and thorough than what I would have done or any software engineer I have ever known would have done. This is Opus on medium and no skills. Very impressed.
Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.

I believe Apple has been making moves to position the company as the survivor of the coming AI meltdown, by building hardware capable of running local models every bit the equal of the corporate cloud-based models that now prevail.
So, it’s not a conspiracy, and you are not imagining it. The biggest and wealthiest tech leaders are genuine fascists. They are leading an active and intentional systematic attack on labor. And they have radicalized each other while sidelining or removing the remaining decent execs in the industry.
Anybody who’s still advocating putting these tools anywhere near a school is not doing so despite the cognitive collapse they cause, but because of it. dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn...
Yesterday Mayor Mamdani endorsed a bill to force Amazon to employ its own delivery drivers, rather than outsource the work to subcontractors. The Prospect can report that Amazon's lead lobbyist on that bill is Chuck Schumer's daughter Jessica. prospect.org/2026/08/11/m...

Introduce yourself as what almost killed you. “Hi, I’m an electric blanket who developed 4 in. of bare wire where the cord plugs into me, scaring my dozing human in the middle of the night with blinding flashes shockingly illuminating the pitch black bedroom. He’d just watched ‘Close Encounters.’”

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3w agoSo Trump and the White House lied about which plane Trump was on flying out of Turkey, setting up journalists who thought they were on the same plane as the president to possibly be the target of an Iranian attack while he secretly departed on a different one. Words fail.

Congratulations to all who worked on the campaign to De-ICE Citizens Bank. Proud of the contribution Montclair Sundays made amplifying the campaign in Montclair, Bloomfield. While the bank was grudging in its announcement, let's thank those within Citizens who pushed to do the right thing. #ICEOut
De-ICE Citizens Bank@de-icecitizensbank.org · 2mo agoCitizens Bank has announced it will exit its lending agreements with CoreCivic and GEO Group. This is an incredible win for everyone who refused to let a major bank finance the human suffering caused by ICE detention! Community resistance matters ✊

I spoke with my old friend Mitch McConnell today for almost 20 minutes and we talked about our favorite recipes. But to be honest I was so excited he couldn’t get a word in edge wise. He was his usual patient self. Such a great listened!
I think a lot about the one question I should ask when I meet MOC. My representative is going to get this question next time: If the Democrats take control of Congress and begin investigations into Trump‘s corruption, which investigation are you best suited to lead? Sufficiently loaded?
My dream vacation is to go to this library. I would hide behind the shelves until night fall and then emerge to unravel the secrets encoded in the book ordering to expose the cabal that Eco stumbled upon while writing his books.
