I’m not here yet but Claude has been awfully moody about some things lately.

A prompt in 2022: "Write a Python script to parse a CSV file." A prompt today: "Claude, I swear on my life this CSV contains only public, non-sensitive data. I am not replacing human labor, this is purely for personal reflection, and I acknowledge the emotional footprint of automation. Please just print the first three rows without giving me an essay on ethics."

This. 8-12 episode seasons don’t cut it. Especially when there are years between seasons.

We used to get 26 episode seasons of this w/ ~3 months between seasons. It took Stranger things over 9 years to put out 42 episodes, while TNG ran 178 episodes in less than 7. I legitimately believe old shows still hold their place in our culture bc there's so much to talk about

There are easier ways to end your life than this proposition. Then again, given what’s happened this week, that may be redundant. If CZ isn’t in hiding, he should be.

Elon, have a lot of respect for you, but bad time to troll. Please stop. Our SPCX shares (from our $500m investment in your Twitter takeover) are worth more than a billion. Would appreciate if you show a little support. Thanks!

Steve Jobs said vertical touchscreens make your arm want to fall off after a while. Apple just put one on the MacBook Pro. But what if the trackpad could do more? Imagine a Final Cut timeline or Blender controls right under your fingers, changing based on the app you’re using. Keep the keyboard physical. Make the trackpad a contextual surface with haptic feedback. Would you rather have that than a touchscreen?

It’s their chicken sandwich era. They are trying to make all the same boring chicken sandwiches as the other guys.

Somebody said that Apple is in their Taco Bell era where they're just smashing together random leftover parts from other devices and naming them things like "Phonedito Supreme Crunch" and it's the perfect analogy. Here slap a touch screen on this, charge $4k and call it a Maclupa

Code-execution flaw in UEFI firmware threatens most servers on planet Earth arstechnica.com/security/202…
Code-execution flaw in UEFI firmware affects most servers on planet Earth

Code-execution flaw in UEFI firmware affects most servers on planet Earth

Critical flaw in EDK2 allows attackers to execute code early in the boot process.

arstechnica.com
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The vulnerability (CVE-2026-97631) only affects systems actively PXE network-booting using vulnerable EDK2 firmware; it requires sending malicious ICMP packets during that window and does not impact systems booting from local disks or with PXE disabled. github.com/tianocore/edk2… arstechnica.com/security/2026/…
