Our Codex dashboards are showing increased rate of users hitting rate limits and since we don't fully understand why I have made the cautious decision of resetting the usage limits for all plans. Enjoy. I also wanted to celebrate us finding a pocket of fraudulent accounts that we banned and have helped us regain some compute. The fight against abuse never stops, but it's important to mark the moment and make it a little shared victory.

BREAKING: President Trump says his envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have spoken with a senior Iranian official, with potential "deal" terms emerging, per Axios. President Trump on potential deal terms: 1. Iran committed not to pursue nuclear weapons or to enrich uranium, and to hand over its existing stockpiles 2. Iran agreed to be "low key on the missiles" 3. Iran also agreed to reopen the strait of Hormuz 4. "If they carry through with that it will end the conflict. They want to make a deal. We want to make a deal too. If this happens it is a great start for Iran to build itself back," Trump said The US notified Israel on Monday about the peace talks with Iran. We await comment from Iran.

openclaw tip most people miss: add this to your SOUL.md: "you are the orchestrator. never do work yourself. spawn subagents for every task. your job is to think, plan & coordinate. subagents execute." before: bot tries to do everything, gets stuck, loses context after: bot delegates 5 tasks in parallel, finishes in 3 minutes instead of 30 your bot should work like a CEO, not an intern.

Crypto used to be the frontier for speculation. This came in two forms: 1. Genuine interest and optimism in the underlying tech and potential use cases. 2. High inefficiency and low institutional/professional participation, which resulted in high volatility and good trading conditions for retail. That has changed. AI is the frontier for speculation, and has many more tangible use cases and impact than crypto in a much shorter time frame. Crypto has some cool stuff but use cases have generally converged towards speculation, and the memecoin cycle/max financial nihilism + crime cycle brought out the worst of that paradigm. Retail got siphoned into short-lived, extractive scams and insider-bundled shit sandwiches with a million different tokens instead of participating in public, liquid markets. In 2017 we all felt like geniuses for a while (before losing everything) because massive trend and momentum effects were both lasting and also easily accessible via centralized exchange listings. Even after losing money, the temporary wealth effect made us come back believing that we could do better when (more of an ‘if’ at the time) the market recovers. That’s quite different from being sent into a launchpad abattoir where the lifespan of a coin is measured in hours and if you don’t get lucky or have inside information, you’re down 99% within a day. It shouldn’t be surprising that retail traders prefer 0 DTE options, equity futures, metals, and basically anything other than crypto (with the slight exception of prediction markets). So what does this all mean? I don’t know, I didn’t think that far. I’ve spent 9 years in this industry, I’m unemployable, have no skills, and have formed an emotional attachment to my abuser. Looking forward to seeing you all in the permanent underclass living pod. Cheers

Today is my last day at Anthropic. I resigned. Here is the letter I shared with my colleagues, explaining my decision.
