2020: "sure it can generate some syntactically valid python snippets, but anything complex and it just falls apart. stochastic parrot." 2026: "sure it can write a C compiler on its own, but it's not even as efficient as GCC and it doesn't have its own linker. stochastic parrot."

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Leads with a specific number, which is concrete enough to be worth a second of attention.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Quotes someone directly, which makes the moment concrete rather than summarised.

The mechanics

Hook: Leads with a number
Structure: Hook → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: plain, matter-of-fact
Written for: Engineers and technical teams

Starlink V3 satellites have >10X bandwidth of V2 and there’ll be >10X launched, which means >100X more bandwidth. Also, altitude will be 350km vs 550km, so min latency can be cut in half. Light travels 300km/ms in space, so physics round trip min latency drops to <5ms.

We’re extending the 50% increase to weekly Claude Code limits through August 31. We hope to make this a permanent change to our plans, but strong demand for our models means that capacity may be tight over the coming weeks. We’ll keep you posted as things develop.

Starting September 14, we're permanently raising standard weekly limits in Claude Code by 25% for Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise plans. Until then, the current 50% increase will be in place.

Wow, seems like Google is buying Spirit Airlines' enterprise data for $10m (outbidding Mercor at $7.5m). Basically includes every internal document, email, workflow, and codebase for a once $6B company. Honestly, $10m for 34 years of operational data really seems like a steal.

Anthropic just pulled Claude Code from the Pro plan. Pro users wanting it need Max now. $100/month minimum. 5x jump. I'm on Max 20x so I'm fine. Flagging for anyone on Pro who's about to find out. No announcement. Just a pricing page edit.

amazon's internal A.I. coding assistant decided the engineers' existing code was inadequate so the bot deleted it to start from scratch that resulted in taking down a part of AWS for 13 hours and was not the first time it had happened incredible t.co

More from Tenobrus

mythos primarily resolves finding itself in conflict with other agents (eg multiple Claude Code instances each with conflicting goals running on the same codebase) by *negotiating truces* among the agents! Opus on the other hand...

buying into the anthropic IPO at $1T valuation would obviously be an incredible deal, 22x multiple on ARR, huge room to grow, countless markets untapped, mythos as of yet unmonetized. kind of thing people dump whole retirement portfolios into. which is why it'll be $3T

okay this is basically it. does this work? if it does, this is the general consumer OpenClaw moment. personal cloud agent with persistent context and access. this is absolutely the kind of thing google *could* potentially pull off. but is it actually any fucking good??

maybe you guys haven't quite caught on yet, but massive supply chain attacks every other week are going to be the new normal. at least until the next generation of models comes out. then it's going to be every other day.

i wish i felt i could trust sam altman. unfortunately as of now, reading posts like feels like incredibly thinly veiled manipulation and frame control, little "admissions" and "i would go to jail for this" would love if any current OAI employees could explain their trust.
