Members of #Codeberg decided to ban repositories that uses #ai:
"You must not share projects that mostly consist of code written by "generative AI"-tools [...]. Such projects having an unclear copyright status [...] and furthermore have little safeguards to ensure that they do not include harmful code [...]."
https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/org/commit/71149c7fc95ccfeae36109b5cddca339e4aa1473 and
https://blog.codeberg.org/protecting-our-floss-commons-from-llms.html
This suggests like any human-written code does not contain parts that do have unclear copyright status or harmful code.
I do not agree with that rationale.
The survey had no option like adding ai-labels so that people might decide on their preferences or other options. It was basically "#LLMs are super fine", "LLMs are the devil" & "I don't want to decide".
To me, this sounds like religion where you've been told what to think. Such people can't be reached by arguments any more.
There are good arguments against #LLM but we've partly left this kind of discussion as it seems. I'd avoid such communities.

quicktipp #119: The capslock LED is a controllable light that most PCs have.
This makes it ideal to signal events - like "email received", "monitoring alert" or "your coding agent is waiting for input".
On Linux, we can easily turn the capslock LED on and off by poking sysfs.
And "capsblink" is a CLI tool that makes it easy to blink/flash the LED on demand. I use it in Claude Code hooks to show "Claude's finished".

Suppose the lies about #AGI are true, and #Claude (or "Claudia", to Richard Dawkins) has become a machine god immensely smarter than I am. Do you think that changes my mind about whether to OBEY such a being?
And yet this is probably the biggest reason why #tech barons want "generative #AI" to be forced upon society. They intend to use it as a source of absolute authority. They wish, really and truly, to become a priesthood, the intercessors between the unwashed masses and the superintelligent god which the priests claim to have themselves created.

If #kernel hackers are now giving #Claude Code unfettered access to do as it pleases on their development computers, what exactly is stopping #Anthropic from performing a supply-chain attack on the entire #Linux ecosystem?
Will there still be human code review going forward, to catch such an attack? And if so, how can that review be meaningful, when the computers used to perform the review are all compromised?
They also say, "We don't yet know which properties of our training data drive these differences. One possibility is that our training data is not evenly distributed across languages."

@selfcare I am sick of AI tooling, and the requirement to use them. My company has enterprise #claude and #n8n licenses, and we are expected to use them for at least 50% of our work. I get #tokens, but all I can bring myself to do with it is to ask if this lib or that lib will work for my python apps, and write them myself.
Maybe, I occasionally ask AI if the code Ive written is sane....but can I really trust #agentic AI to tell me if my code works or not?

Pair Programming with Claude Code — What I Learned | by 🇺🇦 Eugen Martynov | Medium

― It feels like pair programming
"Not like using a tool. Like having someone next to you. …"
Today I rented a server for the first time in my life. I ordered it on Monday, today I finally got access. Obviously, I've used #SSH many times before, since years. I know the `ssh-keygen -t ed25519` by heart.
I wanted to have the server config reproducible, so I asked #claude #opus (you know, the "smart" one) to write an ansible playbook for me. (Because I've never really used ansible before.)
Within two/three hours I had gotten myself *twice* into a situation where I needed to access the server through some fallback method (server console in the browser).
The reason is that I wanted a somewhat hardened SSH setup. So Claude produced a config with `PermitRootLogin no`. Sensible. I saw it.
I ran ansible, afterwards I couldn't log in anymore, because #Claude recommended to defer creating a non-root user account to the second step. I didn't think it through enough. That was issue 1.
The fix was simple enough:
I restored SSH access for `root`. I adapted the ansible playbool so that `PermitRootLogin` would only be set if there are other admin users. That fixed issue 1.
So I continued.
I set the config for adding the new user. It got added to the `sudo` group, but I didn't want to allow `sudo` without password. The user got it's own SSH key, the `.ssh` folder and the `.ssh/authorized_keys` had the right permissions. I ran ansible again. It worked, the new user was created. Now that there was another admin user in the config, ansible reestablished the `PermitRootLogin no`.
I tried to log in as the new user, no problem. I tried running `sudo` and... it asked for the new user's password. But the user didn't have a password. That was issue 2.
Fixing it was again simple: Log in as root (via the web console), set a password for the user.
Still, I'm quite annoyed by myself screwing up two times in so short succession. Normally I pride myself in knowing what I'm doing (in most things I'm doing).

"Being human in the age of AI"
"The Essay" is her new book "Quarterly Essay 102: The God We Made"
- Coming time will be great for AI, whether it will be great for humans rmains to be seen.
- #Ai anxiety (my comment: many humans respond to this tech via the filter of anxiety)
- If Ai writes a book better than human, will you read it?
- Interactivg with AI via osmosis helping your kids with homework.
- Interacting with Ai can be a mind expanding activity for kids, (dilogic) socratic dialogue a way for generating thought. A useful mechanism for kids to think better thoughts, in the same way any interlocutor can be a staircase to deeper thinking.
- We are in the foothills of AI.
- There has to be a way for this technology to distribute the boon to wider community, not just the owners.
- Academics have rewired their brains to think like #ChatGPT
- Emergent self interest amongs Ai Models
- #REGULATEAI (!!!!!)
- Already many young people are delegating their decisions to Ai.
- There is so much we can learn about our mind and sould through this Ai technology
- Human beings are councelling each other about their relationships with algorithm - #Parasocial relationships
My suggestion to improve your tips for #Claude md file.
1) Do not leave ambiguity to the AI, especially when issuing directives "Alternately keep a log" use "keep a log"
2) Declare specific directories where backups, deltas and logs will be kept, also naming convention.

Claude Fable 5 Is INSANE – Hands-On With the BEST Model Yet!
Anthropic: Mythos is our most POWERFUL model to date, and we're releasing this to the public!
Claude: Fable 5 has safety measures that flag messages on most cybersecurity or biology topics. They may flag safe, normal content as well. These measures let us bring you Mythos-level capability in other areas sooner, and we're working to refine them.
Me: Then whats the fuckin point?
"Anthropic released its latest model Fable on Tuesday, billing it as a public and limited version of its powerful and much-hyped cybersecurity model Mythos.
But not everyone is happy with the restrictions, and a number of cybersecurity researchers and professionals have aired complaints online.
“[Fable] rejects any request that could be tangentially cyber related. Even innocuous tasks like reading a blog post,” said Valentina “Chompie” Palmiotti, a well-known security researcher who works at IBM X-Force.
When a prompt triggers its guardrails, Fable pauses the chat and says that its “safety measures flagged this message for cybersecurity or biology topics.”
The guardrails were put in place to limit the risk that Fable could be used to develop malware or compromise software — a long-standing concern within Anthropic. The restrictions on biology come from a similar concern around developing biological weapons."

Is it safe to use, since it's technically a Mythos-class AI model, and there have been lots of cybersecurity concerns?
Also, this is kind of a full-circle milestone moment for me, as over 3 years, from 2017 to 2020, I would be on early shifts with @bbcbusiness transcribing interviews with guests for the BBC Business Live Blog (until the blog was retired), and now I've appeared on the show.

Alright, this is my feeling so far, reading various posts regarding Mythos capability.
Note: I might will never use Mythos in my life, because I do not want to waste my thinking or money, unless I needed to.
First off, yes, it will look like better than ANY models that is released so far.
Proof: https://x.com/VictorTaelin/status/2064448425936994742
And, for me, this Xitter post might be what I will feel on it:
https://x.com/atelicinvest/status/2064460527959683433
Okay, that's just the positive note I have which tbf, i don't really give an f.
Now, on the shit part. If Claude retain their current policy. I (think I can) guarantee you, MYTHOS WILL NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM IT BEING ADVERTISED ON.
Yes, it WILL NOT solve any Cybersecurity problem.
So far, what I have observed is there are two problems:
1. Claude restricts ANY CYBER SECURITY tasks. Which is a fucking shame, mother fucker advertise it will replace pentesters, discover 0days, and so on, yet when it has a chance to be independently verified, "NO, YOU CAN'T DO THAT", in the name of guard rails. (Photo 1)
2. Claude rolling the data retention policy. Haha, fuck you, if you are a sane cybersec man, you do AND MUST realize this is a big fucking no no. Especially IF YOU ARE IN A BIG FUCKING CRITICAL/HIGH RISK place.
So, verdict?
Just do whatever y currently do, also this, that, themes and such.
Real changes will come when it really comes.
And, thanks for reading my ramblings.

AI, open code and vulnerability risk in the public sector - GOV.UK
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/ai-open-code-and-vulnerability-risk-in-the-public-sector
Guidance for safely publishing source code in the open, and reducing the risk of AI-accelerated vulnerability discovery.
"Technology leaders are asking whether AI-accelerated vulnerability discovery means that public sector departments should stop publishing source code ‘in the open’ by default.
User research suggests that the primary driver of exploitation risk is the presence of weaknesses in systems - including unpatched vulnerabilities, insecure implementation, and unsafe configuration or deployment - and the inability to remediate them quickly. Publishing source code does not create those weaknesses, but it can modestly reduce attacker uncertainty and speed up analysis (an effect that may increase with AI assistance), especially where maintenance is weak and fixes are slow. This guidance reinforces the minimum operational capability already assumed for safely operating publicly-accessible services. …"

FreeBSD / src / 56e5998 / loader.efi: Fix when staging moves late - FreshBSD
https://freshbsd.org/freebsd/src/commit/56e59980b673affb82c8c5da9d4338e10d946acd
– an instant cherry-pick from the main branch, before builds began for 15.1-RC3 (the third release candidate).
From the commit log message:
"… This bug hunt was greatly assisted by Claude who looked at the crash from the EFI boot loader and surmised that we weren't jumping to the code we thought we were jumping to. After inspecting the code, I asked claude how corruption could happen (I thought overwriting the page table), but claude notice the possibility that staging might change after we computed the page table, and this fix is the result. Claude didn't suggest a diff, but did provide many helpful clues that lead me to this fix."

I'm getting the impression from all the LLM-related discussions and commits that this is a lost cause and I'll probably have to fork this plugin if I want an MCP-free version of it. Looks like they took up slop coding earlier this year too, which is another area of concern.

* Added my intelligence analysis skills (for strategic foresight briefings)
https://github.com/norandom/Skills/tree/main/intana-viz
87 techniques:
1. Pre-Mortem Analysis: assume the plan failed, work backward. The single highest-leverage method here.
2. Analysis of Competing Hypotheses (ACH): evidence × hypothesis matrix; forces you to look at evidence against your favorite theory.
3. Prioritisation Map: 2×2 ease vs benefit. The everyday decision triage that beats most spreadsheets.
4. Devil's Advocacy (5Cs + CATUR): structured scorecard for stress-testing your own argument.
5. Critical Path Analysis: PERT with the bottleneck highlighted; tells you
which delay actually costs you.
6. Fishbone (Ishikawa): root-cause workhorse for incidents and recurring
failures.
7. Futures Wheel: 1st / 2nd / 3rd-order consequences from one event; cheap way to surface what you forgot.
8. Argument Mapping: central claim with supporting (blue) and contradicting (red) branches; turns vague debates into something you can audit.
9. McKinsey 7S: org diagnostic when something is "off" but you can't name the layer.
10. Six Thinking Hats: De Bono's parallel thinking, the cheapest way to break a stuck meeting.
* Added my public Draw IO + Draw IO MCP server endpoint as default (custom code for better Claude Desktop and Kimi Desktop App integration
* automated diagram generation (I disabled inline rendering because I don't use it. I edit the results)
* also: MCPb file for drag & drop install in Claude Desktop, build scripts inside
Combine this with the premortem skill, and you will get powerful techniques.
Combine it with the NotebookLM MCP server, and you can use a powerful RAG system with expert knowledge databases.
Combine with the new Hermes agent, and you will get self-improving intelligence with GenAI.
Works in Codex (Desktop) as well.

thank you. That is an excellent article about #claude and #CognitiveDebt. I am surprised that more people are not talking about this and no one is talking about the solution to this.
Oh, stop. How many times do you expect people to believe these shameless lies so you can make them think your lousy product is actually superior and - yay - it's becoming sentient? Just stop.

claude-mem also allows you to add Skills for self-improving agents. For example after each run you can analyze the friction points and commit the learnings to the project memory.
Over time the agents then inherit the new status.
The question for me always is, how can I ensure that the agents read the Claude.md ?

'Get on board or get left behind' can mean that if you refuse to use generative AI and/or LLM's to speed up your work, you will soon be working at a snails pace compared to your AI shagging colleagues. Deadlines will become tighter, time on task will be scrutinised and criticised, and your workload will increase.
I'm discovering this in my current role.
Taking 20 minutes (yep, just 20 minutes) to figure out an excel formula that wasn't working as intended has become the rallying cry of my (otherwise awesome) manager to try and convince me I should have just asked co-pilot initially. Now I have been given extra finance tasks (not in my job description) and tighter KPI's for daily tasks.
I will not be using #copilot or fucking #claude or #chatgpt or any of the other bullshit AI tools my employers are currently orgasming over.
They can try and discipline me, or even fire me. I look forward to how a company that is supposed to be ethical and green is going to argue it at the tribunal.
According to Baza, Anthropic, the company behind Claude AI, has begun blocking users from Russia en masse.

One speaks of "exposure" to a concerning risk, not to a bonanza of wealth creation. Some of the quotes in this article seem to be cherrypicked to minimize alarm, which I disagree with: there is cause for alarm. Looking between the lines (e.g. use of words like "exposure" and "choking"), one sees a dismal picture emerge.

----------------
🎯 AI
===================
Executive summary: Ruben Hassid documents a practical workflow that condenses a person's writing voice and stylistic patterns into one compact text file which, when supplied as persistent context, produces draft outputs that closely match the original author. The writeup describes tools, concrete steps, and subjective reactions.
Technical details: The published method includes an extensive interview phase (≈100 questions) to elicit raw material; voice transcription using Wispr Flow to accelerate capture; an intermediate “20,000‑word dump” that is then compressed into a shorter markdown file; and storage of that file in a Cowork folder so the model reads it as fixed context on subsequent prompts. Named models and services referenced include Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Opus 4.7, and an "Extended thinking" mode. The author emphasizes context‑window and token‑cost concerns as a motivation to compress the profile.
Analysis: The described pipeline demonstrates a repeatable way to convert longform personal artifacts into a compact persona artifact that LLMs can consume. Key tradeoffs reported in the source are fidelity versus size (full dumps are descriptive but costly), and the psychological effect of being reducible to a single file: the author reports surprise that the model can reproduce idiosyncrasies, and notes personal resistance to feeling "just a text file." The writeup also documents iterative verification: testing the compressed file in a blank session and then placing it in the model's designated folder to observe differences.
Practical considerations (as reported): The article highlights token costs and context‑window limits as practical constraints, and references voice capture to speed the interview process. The source includes concrete file artifacts (a compressed md) and a folder‑based persistence approach (Cowork folder) as operational elements of the workflow.
Limitations (as reported): The piece focuses on methodology and subjective reaction; it does not provide security, privacy, or policy recommendations. The writeup is anecdotal and centered on a single practitioner's experience rather than systematic evaluation.

It's fair to say that <https://nitter.net/cperciva/status/2049591719143059860>, a few hours before Gary's video, was not bullshit:
" In April, FreeBSD issued eight security advisories. Six of them were for issues found by AI."
Colin Percival quotes his own post from March 2026:
"… LLMs are producing lots of slop, but they're also finding a heck of a lot of real vulnerabilities."

We went from precise web search with boolean operators to "natural language models" of AI search.
You can tell nuerodivergent, Autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, etc folks created the early internet...
...and you can tell that neurotypical folks are now leading the current overlays of the internet.
We used to have very precise search mechanisms. Specific words found in web pages with boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT, etc) to filter out the web pages that contained specific words and did not contain other words.
Now, we search for web sites (or don't even search for web sites, yay abstraction layers that separate us from actual raw information) using "natural language" to try and coax out info.
Have you ever been frustrated when you use very precise and direct language to communicate a specific idea with someone who then takes those specific words and adds obscure meaning and connotations and personal fears and bias to what you said... thus completely misunderstanding you... only to then try and clarify what you said with more precise language only to have that further degrade the conversation?!
Yeah. That's the internet with AI "search" now.
They took something that worked precisely and directly and muddied it.
We've introduced the "double-empathy problem" to web search.
I'm noticing that everyone in my circles, family, and especially work that are nuerotypical LOVE LOVE LOVE the new AI search mechanisms. They'll tell me exactly what the answer they received was - regardless of whether it's right or has multiple possible and conflicting answers. They just repeat what the AI said like it was the Gospel Truth.
And they love talking to it like it was a "real person."
It certainly takes my search parameters and adds its own interpretation to which I have to clarify and correct which is then misinterpreted further...
I haven't tried vibe coding, but I can only imagine the horror.
Can you imagine vibe pentesting with Claude / Mythos?!?!?!
You know how neurodivergent folks gravitated towards IT because it was precise?
Yeah, that's gone now.

OpenAI Misses Key Revenue, User Targets in High-Stakes Sprint Toward IPO
The company’s CFO and board have questioned the wisdom of massive data-center spending in the face of slowing growthFrom https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/openai-misses-key-revenue-user-targets-in-high-stakes-sprint-toward-ipo-94a95273
Several interesting details in this article, including that both Google and Anthropic are eating a bit of OpenAI's lunch. DeepSeek's latest model would be poised to eat all their lunches if it weren't for the US government running cover for US firms. This does not feel like a stable situation to me.

Security researcher Alexander Hanff wrote an article titled Anthropic secretly installs spyware when you install Claude Desktop. Anthropic has not denied the report, as of time of post.
TLDR: If a user installs Claude Desktop on a Mac (pc test results tba), it installs a backdoor into every browser, even those not installed. By testing on a clean machine, Hanff discovered that Installing Claude Desktop for macOS drops a Native Messaging host manifest into multiple Chromium profiles (Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc, Vivaldi, Opera, Chromium), even including for browsers that are not actually installed yet.
How bad is it? Well...that depends. What it does is create a very wide attack vector, especially for prompt injection. That it is done invisibly, without telling the user, and making it difficult to remove, is certainly problematic.
I dunno man, maybe don’t use the planet destroying tulip craze?
