Just noticed Claude Code has a claude-code-guide it can reference to learn more about how to configure itself. Probably a skill, since it doesn't show up in commands

I've wanted this for a long time!
Added slash command autocomplete support when / appears anywhere in input, not just at the beginning

Example of something in relay.app I've tried to get a few times and the model keeps telling me should work, but then it tries and gets stuck.

Premium Workloads (Top-Right): High-cost, high-usage applications including technology and science. Users pay a premium for performance in these valuable professional workloads. Technology is a significant outlier—dramatically more expensive than any other category yet maintaining high usage, indicating its essential nature. Mass-Market Volume Drivers (Top-Left): High usage, at-or-below-average cost. Dominated by roleplay, programming, and science. Programming is the "killer professional" category with highest usage at median cost. Roleplay's volume nearly rivals programming—consumer entertainment drives engagement on par with top-tier professional use. This cost-sensitive quadrant is where open source models have found a significant edge. Specialized Experts (Bottom-Right): Lower-volume, high-cost applications including finance, academia, health, and marketing. Users consult AI for these high-stakes domains less frequently than programming but pay significant premiums due to high demand for accuracy and domain-specific knowledge. Niche Utilities (Bottom-Left): Low-cost, low-volume tasks including translation, legal, and trivia. Translation has highest volume in this group; trivia the lowest. These may be highly optimized or commoditized, with good-enough alternatives available cheaply. Key Outlier—Technology: Commands the highest cost-per-token by substantial margin while maintaining high usage, suggesting high willingness-to-pay for complex answers (system architecture, advanced problem-solving). Whether this reflects high user value (demand-side opportunity) or high cost-of-serving (supply-side challenge) is unclear. The play here: service this high-value market through optimized specialist models to capture higher margins.

This collection of retention charts captures the dynamics of the LLM user market across leading models. At first glance, the data is dominated by high churn and rapid cohort decay. Yet beneath this volatility lies a subtler and more consequential signal: a small set of early user cohorts exhibits durable retention over time. We term these foundational cohorts. These cohorts are not merely early adopters; they represent users whose workloads have achieved a deep and persistent workload–model fit. Once established, this fit creates both economic and cognitive inertia that resists substitution, even as newer models emerge. We introduce the Cinderella Glass Slipper effect as a framework to describe this phenomenon. The hypothesis posits that in a rapidly evolving AI ecosystem, there exists a latent distribution of high-value workloads that remain unsolved across successive model generations. Each new frontier model is effectively "tried on" against these open problems. When a newly released model happens to match a previously unmet technical and economic constraint, it achieves the precise fit — the metaphorical "glass slipper." For the developers or organizations whose workloads finally "fit," this alignment creates strong lock-in effects. Their systems, data pipelines, and user experiences become anchored to the model that solved their problem first. As costs decline and reliability increases, the incentive to re-platform diminishes sharply. Conversely, workloads that do not find such a fit remain exploratory, migrating from one model to another in search of their own solution. Empirically, this pattern is observable in the June 2025 cohort of Gemini 2.5 Pro and the May 2025 cohort of Claude 4 Sonnet, which retain approximately 40% of users at Month 5, substantially higher than later cohorts. These cohorts appear to correspond to specific technical breakthroughs (e.g., reasoning fidelity or tool-use stability) that finally enabled previously impossible workloads.

Compare to the typical interface for how it's better:
An image of the typical pool viewing experience, which has other classes, low information, and is generally hard to read. Also, it only shows one location's availability and doesn't show the map detail. Even the days of the week aren't visible as you scroll down the page.

Claude Code has some new-ish /usage details with the Opus 4.5 release.
> /usage Settings: Status Config **Usage** (tab to cycle) Current session ██████████████████ 36% used Resets 2am (America/Indianapolis) Current week (all models) █████████████▌ 27% used Resets Dec 1 at 3pm (America/Indianapolis) Current week (Sonnet only) █▌ 3% used Resets Dec 1 at 6pm (America/Indianapolis) Nov 24, 2025 update: We've increased your limits and removed the Opus cap, so you can use Opus 4.5 up to your overall limit. Sonnet now has its own limit—it's set to match your previous overall limit, so you can use just as much as before. We may continue to adjust limits as we learn how usage patterns evolve over time.

The Present Tragedy Strikes Whatever happened to dhh? I regret to inform you that, after a long struggle, he eventually lost his fight against the parasitic fungus that was taking over his brain,14 and died. The exact timeline is unclear, but we suspect he succumbed to his illness sometime in 2020. A morbid side-effect of his condition is that his body is still alive, walking around, delivering keynote addresses at confs and screeds on social media. Yet he exists only as a macabre meat puppet, his sinews pulled taught, controlled entirely by the brain parasite he contracted from a WhatsApp group chat. This state of affairs is upsetting, and confusing, but it bears repeating: the man we knew and loved as dhh is gone. All that remains today is an unsettling creature better known to us as David Hamburger Helper.

@marcelorinesi.bsky.social FYI on Feedbin your RSS post content looks like raw markdown. just wanted to let you know
A few of the ideas, topics, and commonplaces that have been gaining steam on arXiv during the last few months (yes, I do a lot of filtering to keep away most of the genAI stuff; explainer ). **1\. Altermagnets:** The Wikipedia entry warns _This article may be too technical for most readers to understand,_ and it might not be wrong; here's a less technical article . Some recent articles: * Theories of Superconducting Diode Effects * Spin-Orbit Coupling-Driven Chirality Switching of Spin Waves in Altermagnets * A large spin-splitting altermagnet designed from the hydroxylated MBene monolayer * All-Altermagnetic Tunnel Junction of RuO2/NiF2/RuO2 * Relativistic Spin-momentum locking in altermagnets **2\. Einstein Probe:** A Chinese-European X-ray space telescope designed to find very quickly variable or transient events that other instruments can look at right away; being able to study an object or event through multiple tools is very useful, but for fast-changing or disappearing targets you need to have good global coordination and the right early detection systems. Some recent articles: * Hard X-ray Emission in AU Mic Flares: A Minor Contributor to Planetary Atmospheric Escape * Detecting Population III Gamma-Ray Bursts in the Era of EP and SVOM * Radio observations point to a moderately relativistic outflow in the fast X-ray transient EP241021a * A fast powerful X-ray transient from possible tidal disruption of a white dwarf * Comparative Statistical Analysis of Prompt and Afterglow X-Ray Flares in Gamma-Ray Bursts: Insights into Extended Central Engine Activity **3\. Cosmic noon:** The moment in the Universe's history, about 3 billion years after the Big Bang, when star and galaxy formation peaked (stars kept being formed afterward, of course; the Sun is billions of years younger than that). Some recent articles: * Feedback and dynamical masses in high-$z$ galaxies: the advent of high-resolution NIRSpec spectroscopy * MEGATRON: the impact of

I'm all for AI stuff, but this seems like it would shift a lot of burden onto the folks who work the phones at businesses.
Image from email I just got ## Hold the phone. Let Search call businesses for you. Search can now call businesses to get pricing and availability information on your behalf — without you needing to pick up the phone.* To get started, search for something like “pet groomers near me” and you’ll see a new option in the results to “Have AI check pricing.”
