They require reasoning over complete artifacts: entire codebases, document collections, contracts, financial filings. For years, the industry worked around this problem by building retrieval pipelines, chunking strategies, and agentic scaffolding — useful tools, but ultimately workarounds for co…

Running local models is good now I’ve been working with local models since they came out, and finally, they’re surprisingly good now. I have a 2022 M2 Mac with 64 GB RAM and 1TB storage and I’ve used - Mistral 7B - Gemma 3 - OpenAI OSS-20B - Qwen 3 MOE, as well as a number of other Qwen variants like Qwen 2.5 Coder across a lot of different system setups like - raw llama.cpp with Open WebUI - lla…

I. The Problem Every year, industrialized fraud syndicates extract over $64 billion from the global elderly population. These are not lone actors of yesteryear, hoping to scam a granny. Today they represent vertically integrated criminal enterprises operating from fortified compounds in Myanmar, Cambodia, and Laos — staffed by trafficked labor, funded by crypto laundering networks, and armed with…

No. Claude Fable 5 (claude-fable-5) is not available right now. It has been offline since June 12, 2026, when a U.S. export-control directive suspended access.

In the world of modern portable devices, it may be hard to believe that merely a few decades ago the most convenient way to keep track of time was a mechanical watch. Unlike their quartz and smart siblings, mechanical watches can run without using any batteries or other electronic components. Over the course of this article I’ll explain the workings of the mechanism seen in the demonstration belo…

I can see it shouted from Reddit already. “That’s not a Commodore!” If I weren’t the CEO, I’d be very into the Callback (I do love a dumb phone). And if I weren’t already down the digital minimalism path, I’d probably be a little sceptical too. So let me earn it. “I love my smartphone.” When’s the last time you said that, and meant it? Be honest. There was a time you could say that about your pho…

They fixed it without ever responding to me. I had to call FIFA, MediaKind, HBS, CISA, and the FBI at 3am Tokyo time just to get someone to listen. This is that story. It Started With a Football Agent Registration So FIFA has this thing called the FIFA Agent Platform. It's a public portal where you can register to become a licensed football agent. You submit your ID, verify your email, and you're…

A French engineer who lives quietly in Paris has spent 30 years writing software that the entire internet now runs on without knowing his name. He wrote the code that streams every YouTube video, every Netflix show, every TikTok clip. He wrote the code that runs the virtual
