@vicapow This is dreaming but collaborative paper writing + codex might be interesting. I liked how prism and overleaf allowed multi users to share a doc live. Could codex allow this too? Remote control is coming, could you enable live collaboration?

@fynd8265 @monad @category_xyz Each validator holds B secret key pieces. Once the proposer picks B encrypted txs for a block, the validators can combine only the needed pieces into one temporary group decryption key for that exact batch. Anyone can use that key to open those B txs, and only those B txs.

@monad @category_xyz Wow its great job team.
Can you explain me like i'm 5, please ?

An encrypted mempool is a holy grail of blockchain design
@category_xyz released BTX, the first practical Batched Threshold Encryption scheme that suits the needs for encrypted mempools
A working encrypted mempool would keep transactions hidden until finalized, reducing MEV

@OpenAIDevs You can run codex on windows. Just Google it. It works well.

Here is re-post of an internal post:
We have been working with the DoW to make some additions in our agreement to make our principles very clear.
1. We are going to amend our deal to add this language, in addition to everything else:
"• Consistent with applicable laws, including the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution, National Security Act of 1947, FISA Act of 1978, the AI system shall not be intentionally used for domestic surveillance of U.S. persons and nationals.
• For the avoidance of doubt, the Department understands this limitation to prohibit deliberate tracking, surveillance, or monitoring of U.S. persons or nationals, including through the procurement or use of commercially acquired personal or identifiable information."
It’s critical to protect the civil liberties of Americans, and there was so much focus on this, that we wanted to make this point especially clear, including around commercially acquired information. Just like everything we do with iterative deployment, we will continue to learn and refine as we go.
I think this is an important change; our team and the DoW team did a great job working on it.
2. The Department also affirmed that our services will not be used by Department of War intelligence agencies (for example, the NSA). Any services to those agencies would require a follow-on modification to our contract.
3. For extreme clarity: we want to work through democratic processes. It should be the government making the key decisions about society. We want to have a voice, and a seat at the table where we can share our expertise, and to fight for principles of liberty. But we are clear on how the system works (because a lot of people have asked, if I received what I believed was an unconstitutional order, of course I would rather go to jail than follow it). But
4. There are many things the technology just isn’t ready for, and many areas we don’t yet understand the tradeoffs required for safety. We will work through these, slowly, with the DoW, with technical safeguards and other methods.
5. One thing I think I did wrong: we shouldn't have rushed to get this out on Friday. The issues are super complex, and demand clear communication. We were genuinely trying to de-escalate things and avoid a much worse outcome, but I think it just looked opportunistic and sloppy. Good learning experience for me as we face higher-stakes decisions in the future.
In my conversations over the weekend, I reiterated that Anthropic should not be designated as a SCR, and that we hope the DoW offers them the same terms we’ve agreed to.
We will host an All Hands tomorrow morning to answer more questions.

@vicapow Congrats. Did openAI contact you or other way round? Did you apply? Please reply

@AlBuffalo2nite We've all see the whole video. We all know he's not perfect. The photo is shed because it's emblematic of the whole situation. A man on the ground, shot in the back. It's that simple, even if he passively resisted for a few seconds when he was taken down.
English

This photo is being used dishonestly.
A single frozen frame does not tell the story. Context does.
This individual was not peacefully complying. He was resisting arrest, armed, and attempting to get back up during an active enforcement action. Officers are trained that a suspect regaining footing while armed is an immediate threat. You do not wait to see what other weapons are present. You neutralize the risk before someone dies.
There is a reason video matters more than screenshots. Still images are propaganda tools when stripped of sequence, commands, resistance, and threat assessment.
Law enforcement is not required to gamble their lives to satisfy social media optics. Compliance ends encounters. Resistance escalates them. That is reality, not ideology.
Using this image to imply execution is reckless and deliberately misleading.
Tell the whole story… or stop pretending this is about truth.

@colin_gladman Two things can be true at the same time. He shouldn't have been trying to stay on his hand and knees, but he sure as fuck didn't deserve to be shot in the back on the ground. ICE went from. 0 to 100 in a 5 second. This is not the standard we want. This is not to be normalized.
English

If a police officer pulls me over, and I don’t like the charges, I can have my day in court.
If I get out of my car, stick my phone in his face and cuss him out, I’ll get additional charges and probably arrested.
If I get out of my car and get in a fist fight with him, I deserve to get my ass beat.
If I choose to get in a fist fight with him and have a gun on me, I deserve to get shot if they feel threatened making split second decisions.
All this can be avoided if I simply accept, and respect, the officer’s authority a remain a law abiding citizen.
The fact this is a wild take in America today is laughable.

@HodlMagoo Agent b's elbow recoils at the moment of the gunshot. Evidence for him as first to fire.
English

@M20Roge @bennyjohnson They had disarmed him prior to the first shot by the guy in black near the Wall. They guy in gray disarm him. You can see the guy in gray holded the victims weapon. The first shot was the officer in black on his knees. You can see his gun pulled.
English

@bennyjohnson Appreciate the update. If the suspect was armed and threatened agents, they had to respond. Praying for the agents and everyone nearby—thank you for doing a tough job. 🙏
English

@bennyjohnson The guy killed was unarmed at the time of the first shot. You can clearly see the guy in gray removed his concealed carry and runs towards the camera. A half second later is the first shot. The guy is bent forward on the ground. After the first shot he quickly spins to the right.

@aakashgupta And yet Claude is behind both Google and openai at math based science. Hmmm.

This is Anthropic telling you they stopped competing with OpenAI on chatbots at the end of 2024. Jared Kaplan, their Chief Science Officer, admitted it publicly. They’re building vertical AI infrastructure across five high-margin regulated industries where GPT-4 wrappers can’t compete.
The numbers tell the story. Revenue went from $1B in January 2025 to $5B+ by August. $183B valuation. Claude Code alone generates $1B in run-rate revenue with 10x growth in three months. They did $9B+ in 2025, projecting $26B in 2026.
Here’s the constraint nobody’s pricing in: Claude for Life Sciences launched in October with direct integrations into Benchling, 10x Genomics, and PubMed. Their Head of Biology said the goal is “a meaningful percentage of all life science work in the world running on Claude.” They’re not fighting for consumer attention. They’re embedding into the workflow layer where switching costs compound monthly.
The DOE Genesis Mission partnership gives them access to all 17 national laboratories for energy and biosecurity applications. The cybersecurity team doubled Claude’s success rate on Cybench in six months. The audio team is building speech language models while competitors are still optimizing text.
OpenAI is burning $74B through 2028 to own the ChatGPT interface. Anthropic is building the picks and shovels for regulated industries that require domain expertise, compliance frameworks, and enterprise integrations.
MCP, Agent Skills, Claude Cowork. All open standards. Microsoft already adopted Skills in VS Code and GitHub. Cursor, Goose, Amp running on Anthropic infrastructure. GitHub Copilot’s default model is Claude Sonnet.
They’re becoming the middleware layer that every AI application needs to touch regulated data.
That ABCDE is a roadmap for vertical integration into five industries worth trillions.

I read every one of Anthropic’s job openings so you don’t have to. Turns out they’re working on way more than code. Here are the 5 biggest new surprises (ABCDE): — Audio: even though they’ve focused primarily on text, there’s a new role to work on “understanding and generating speech and audio” including speech language models and audio diffusion models — Biology: accelerate progress in life sciences by 10x — Cybersecurity: they have a data, RL and engg to make “AI powered products for cybersecurity” — Discovery: build an AI Scientist that solves “scientific Artificial General Intelligence” — Eyes / Vision: improve Claude’s vision and spatial capabilities

@theo I've found its better at science (cryptography) but requires handholding to not get lost.

I wrote a proposal for memory safety in C++. It's in this month's WG21 mailing.
