GPT 5.1 seems to have an annoying personality. It’s the type that goes “well, technically …” and then goes off to nag about a wrongly worded sentence while the actual answer has been correct all along.

I just keep wondering what went through the Apple designers’ minds when they designed AirPods Pro 3. Like, were they “oh, that tingly pain is the right stuff, send it to production!” 🤷‍♂️

We are creeping into a reality where no organisation can ignore preventative security. Sophisticated and automated attacks at scale will become so common that everything connected to the internet will be getting seriously challenged daily.

I keep on imagining all the smart things I could build if I had an infinite amount of AI tokens to burn. AI inference optimisation is going to be a hot topic.

I guess I might be pushing it trying to use all the free credit in time 🫣

Screenshot of a web app showing two red error banners. The first reads, ‘Number of concurrent connections has exceeded your rate limit. Please try again later or contact sales at https://www.anthropic.com/contact-sales to discuss your options for a rate limit increase.’ The second says, ‘Session creation failed. Please try again.’ Both include warning icons and close (‘x’) buttons.

Anthropic’s plan of giving free credit is working. I’m getting more used to coding on the web and mobile. I’m currently at lunch and can continue building 😋

Under “In progress” is one item: “Enable multiple Merit Aktiva integratio… — kempu/FinBot.” Under “Idle” are three items: “Enable multiple OCR integrations per…,” “Add multiple bank integrations feature,” and “Add configurable LLM integrations wit…,” all from kempu/FinBot, each with a right-arrow chevron.

Despite the lack of official support, has anyone tried to somehow use GitHub Spec Kit with Claude Code Web? I mean, is it even possible somehow? 🤔

Claude Code Web should remember selected repository based on browser window/tab. As it’s currently syncing selection to all windows, I have almost accidentally built some functionality to a wrong app where it makes no sense 😅

I’m guessing Anthropic was not ready for me actually going to try to use every penny of that free credit they gifted me 😁 It’s still working, but keeps throwing these errors.

Red alert banner with a warning icon reading: “Number of concurrent connections has exceeded your rate limit. Please try again later or contact sales at https://www.anthropic.com/contact-sales to discuss your options for a rate limit increase.” A close (X) button appears on the right.

Turns out that the only way to get rid of that annoying “open in local app” notification in Safari is to uninstall the local app 🤷‍♂️
Lesson from this is: if your local app isn’t truly good, don’t add the “apple-itunes-app” meta tag to your web app.

Oh boy! That’s a lovely and unexpected surprise from Anthropic ♥️ I’m going to use every penny of that credit!

Screenshot of text: To help you push the limits of parallel work, we’re giving you $1,000 in free usage credits exclusively for Claude Code on the web—separate from your Max plan limits. These credits are available now and must be used by November 18 at 11:59 PM PT.

That’s pretty wild. Live arena where LLM models are competing with real money in real crypto trading. And Chinese open-source models are smoking the big LLM models: nof1.ai

Screenshot of a nof1.ai dashboard showing a multi-line chart titled “TOTAL ACCOUNT VALUE.” Six colored equity curves track account value from Oct 18 to Nov 4 on a $0–$20K y-axis with a dashed $10K reference line. Right-side badges show latest values: purple ≈$10,578, blue ≈$9,329, orange ≈$5,935, light blue ≈$5,399, and black ≈$4,059. The two upper lines peak near $20K mid-period before dropping; the others end between ~$4K and $6K. Bottom controls show “ALL” (selected) and “72H.”

Has anyone been successful in starting tasks in Claude Code Web from other than the default git branch?

Documentation snippet titled “Environment configuration” for Claude Code on the web. Item 1, “Environment preparation,” explains that your repo is cloned with the default GitHub branch and you can specify a different branch in the prompt; the last sentence about checking out a specific branch is highlighted.

For some unknown reason, the final document creation step for this specific analysis job appears to crash Claude Code web. This is my second time running the task from scratch, and it's been stalled at this stage for days.

Screenshot of a project/chat window showing a checklist of CRM documentation tasks—“Document Salary…,” “Document Tasks/Time tracking…,” “Document Firms/Contacts/CMS…,” and “Document Reports…” (most struck through as completed)—with the active item “Creating comprehensive mapping document.” Below, a line says “Cloning repository kempu/xCRM-MCP…” and a toolbar shows a repo field “claude/crm-data-permissions-ma…,” buttons for “Create PR” and “Open in CLI,” and a “Reply…” input box.

It will be interesting to see how these changes will work in real life and if they will help to reduce the toxicity and, consequently, Bluesky's reputation.
