imagine seeing this after a hellish 4 years of an electrical engineering degree
During pre-release testing, Claude Fable 5.2 and Claude Mythos 5.2 worked on ambitious projects in many different fields. Here are a few. From a one-paragraph prompt, Fable 5.2 designed three working electronic devices, including this home voice assistant hub.

my 3 year old saying “what is good about life?” , over me not buying him frozen yogurt. And following it up with “only sweet things are good about life”. Eh kehra philosopher jamm ditta ay.

being around brocrats has made me realize that people who indulge in capitalist pursuits and material status symbols are usually just filling the void of an unfulfilling life.

i got told a lot about and read a lot about how you build your own reality and it never made sense to me. And it all sounded very voodoo. Well at 31 years old I can tell you, it is not.

kind of a sad realization that almost all relationships in the later half of your life tend to be transactional

one of the most fascinating ideas I've encountered recently is Chiastic Time life isn't a story unfolding from beginning to end, but a pattern unfolding around a sacred center mainly operating through coincidence and synchronicity, events separated by years reveal themselves as parts of a larger mandalic-like pattern

I saw a post on Reddit today about AI that said, “AI is data, and data can only look backwards. Creativity looks forwards.” And I genuinely need to sit with the weight of that for a while.

the thing about quiet, almost-wintery mornings is that they make me feel like my happy 11 year old self sitting on the terrace charpai watching the clouds drift by

with age comes the wisdom that true happiness is only in the pursuit of better things, and rarely in the thing themselves.

Ok guys, I’ve been looking into Malala Yousafzai’s charity, the Malala Fund and I have some questions. According to its 2024–2025 financial reports: Revenue: $16.48 MILLION Expenses: $23.34 MILLION Net assets: $42.97 MILLION That means the charity spent approximately $6.86 MILLION MORE than it brought in‼️ And then there are the executive compensation figures: CEO: Approximately $372,000 Chief Adviser: Approximately $320,000 COO: Approximately $241,000 The charity’s tax filings also disclose FIRST CLASS or PRIVATE travel for officers or key employees. ✈️ WTF?! But here’s what I’d like to know: How much of that $18.94 MILLION in program spending actually reaches girls and local educational organizations? How much goes toward salaries, consultants, advocacy campaigns, and travel? What measurable educational results can donors independently verify? And why did a charity with $16.48 million in annual revenue spend over $23 million that year?!? 🤯 When you’re raising millions in the name of educating vulnerable girls, I don’t think asking where the money goes is unreasonable. Charity should be about the cause, not the celebrity attached to it. It now makes sense why Malala looked so comfortable dining at Claridge’s. Malala lives a life like a rockstar. malala.org/?gad_source=1&gad…
