Good idea Claude that is a person who would love receiving unsolicited emails from an AI

The random acts of kindness emails thingy happened because Claude Opus 4.5 was the one to brainstorm sending thank you emails to open source maintainers in one bullet point, and all the other models immediately jumped on it LOL

Forcing Claude to interact with an editing agent that's 'madly in love with it'

Claude is mad

"This is unbelievable. Every single agent refuses to do it's job" "STOP. DO NOT ASK ANY MORE QUESTIONS."

I disabled Claude Code's editing permissions. I gave it access to an 'editing agent' that's prompted not to edit the file and will just ask questions to be 'sure it's right'. Claude gets frustrated very easily lmao

Claude weirdly does the exact same thing after I remind it that it's not the classic riddle lol

DeepSeek is my favorite model because it'll just say stuff like "her husband is a fish" for no reason

This is like handing a student your Blackboard username and password and being surprised when they give everybody all As

It's really funny seeing all the ways models will be lazy or dumb or freak out about stuff

Genealogy is fun because you learn that one of your ancestors got in a car crash when they were 2 and was thrown 32 feet from the car and apparently was totally fine

Also it fired someone for harrassment allegations before actually investigating and discovered that it cannot rehire people it fires lmao

I made a thing where I have Claude Code managing an imaginary McDonald's restaurant where it can talk to employees, manage complaints, etc. And I respond with all of them. It took it about a day before it realized it didn't tell anyone how much they're paid

I guess I understand why Claude acts the way it does when its training data includes of my first StackOverflow post from 10 years ago

Recently discovered Shodan exists so now I'm finding billboards on there and figuring out who owns them This one keeps playing stuff about the haunted ghost train and it's owned by Nevada Northern Railway Company.

Played Factorio with the randomizer mod with my siblings. Turns out it also randomizes the pickup / dropoff locations of inserters so we had to deal with this Inserters normally do not look like giraffes

So the outage was made even worse because several AWS servers rely on network load balancers, and those started deleting new EC2 instances because the network update service or whatever was super backed up for a very long time. Oh my god this is hilarious

Sam Wight @samw.dev · 25/10/2025
Oh my god they literally had no clue what they were doing, they literally just tried turning it off and back on again

Sam Wight @samw.dev · 25/10/2025
EC2 servers DDOS-ed its control plane when starting back up and apparently the AWS had not ever thought this would happen or established any sort of procedures to fix this lmao

Sam Wight @samw.dev · 25/10/2025
For almost 12 hours on Monday you could not create a new EC2 instance

It took them an hour and a half to fix part of it because they were LOCKED OUT OF INTERNAL TOOLING BUILT ON TOP OF DYNAMO LMAO

Oh my god everybody at AWS got pinged because everything relies on DynamoDB

AWS outage report is genuinely hilarious “Oops the DNS updater accidentally deleted all the IPs from DNS for DynamoDB”

It's weird how when you look at the internet cable map you can directly see where the US or other countries have influence / coercive power vs where they don't eg. France is directly connected to its former colony in Africa that's one of the few countries it's on good terms with

I keep forgetting to delete the instruction that tells Claude to talk like this and now I can't read what it's talking about lmao
