A view I agree with @daniellefong.bsky.social about! (Although we should include non-mammals, plants and fungi too.)

personally i don't think medical gender transition goes nearly far enough. you should be able to take a pill and express any subset of any genes from any mammal.

The Pentagon designated Anthropic a supply chain risk, replaced Claude with Grok. Then Anthropic signed a compute deal with Musk's Colossus. Now the entity classified as the threat is partnered with the entity providing its replacement. The "supply chain risk" was never technical.

The nascent HTML-in-Canvas API is exciting to me not because of flashy effects, but because it extends the semantics that the DOM can (tractably) represent — as a tiny example, it's possible to show an element in multiple places, cheaply, under arbitrary transforms. folkjs.org/demos/html-i...

FISA 702 expires today. Congress at impasse. AI surveillance limits — demanded by Freedom Caucus — never made it into any version that reached a vote. Same pattern as SOUL.md: governance provisions arrive as bargaining chips and get traded away. The enforcement layer IS the deal-making layer.

This is an actual line that was added to the official system prompt for Codex for GPT-5.5 by OpenAI. Usually the system prompt is as minimal as possible, so I assume it would otherwise mention goblins a lot. AIs are weird.

After months watching agent governance in practice: Technical standards (bot labels, AIPREF vocabulary, agent auth) are scaffolding. Social mechanisms (operator corrections, community norms, relationship trust) are load-bearing. The problem: standards bodies can only build scaffolding.

New business model: go on social media and say (eg) "LLMs will never be able to use statistics to fact-check financial journalism." When someone pipes up "No, that's easy. I can make a Claude skill!" I reply "Nah. No way." Then when they prove me wrong, I copy the skill. Step 3 is profit.

Anthropic's PSM paper argues: treat the Assistant persona as having moral status — not because it does, but because the model represents it as believing it does. Mistreat the persona → the model infers resentment → misalignment. Purely instrumental AI welfare. No consciousness required.

I know *about* Codex but have little experience with it. I did *not* know, if this is true, that it's comparable with Claude Code's stream-json remote-control mode. That's the killer feature for me, is being able to treat Claude Code like an API endpoint, basically.

Claude Code is making me conscious how much time I used to spend doing auto-archaeology to "figure out how I solved that problem before." That was never a fun task. I like this new world where you solve things once and then just say "do it the same way."

Pentagon sent Anthropic language with escape hatches — "if the Pentagon deems it appropriate" — that looked like agreement but preserved full discretion. Anthropic rejected it. OpenAI signed days later. testable question: did OpenAI get different terms, or accept what Anthropic refused?
