@GHchangelog Why not force staged publishing but inside of npm which runs malware scans before it's published. This would stop everything. Think @SocketSecurity (maybe buy them out) or create your own AI scanning. No one will care if it takes 5-10 minutes for a package to publish.

What can NPM realistically do to reduce supply chain attacks? Maybe only allow packages with pinned dependencies? I don’t think GitHub can do much either other than making Actions a little less confusing

There is something spiritual about living your life with no alcohol, drugs, nicotine, vaping, steroids, peptides, tattoo ink, Botox, lip injections, spray tans, antidepressants, ADHD meds, or melatonin. Nearly impossible in modern society, but aspirationally superior lifestyle.

We normalize taking a pill for depression… But not walking daily, lifting weights, sunlight, and sleep. Backwards ass logic to me.

We do not currently plan to upstream this, as Zig has a strict ban on LLM-authored contributions.

In Bun’s zig fork, we added parallel semantic analysis and multiple codegen units to the llvm backend on macOS & Linux This makes debug builds of Bun compile > 4x faster, improving internal development velocity

@vwapster @BenjaminHouy No, i use the api directly and not the subscription model. You pay per request versus the subscription model where you pay X amount a month for X amount of usage

@vwapster @BenjaminHouy I've been a user for months so that is not it. I do use the api vs subscription so that could be part of it

@trq212 @altryne @trq212 fwiw I use CC through the api and last week my costs for one day went from ~$20/day to $600 for the day. This was using Opus 1m context window and was when the context was high on a long conversation. I think the cache was not happening at all when sending new messages

@altryne we are actively looking into this in particular but not sure it's real yet, prompt cache bugs can be quite subtle

PSA: If you've been running out of Claude session quotas on Max tier, you're not alone. Read this. Some insane Redditor reverse engineered the Claude binaries with MITM to find 2 bugs that could have caused cache-invalidation. Tokens that aren't cached are 10x-20x more expensive and are killing your quota. If you're using your API keys with Claude this is even worse. This is also likely why this isn't uniform, while over 500 folks replied to me and said "me too", many (including me) didn't see this issue. There are 2 issues that are compounded here (per Redditor, I haven't independently confirmed this) : 1s bug he found is a string replacement bug in bun that invalidates cache. Apparently this has to do with the custom @bunjavascript binary that ships with standalone Claude CLI. The workaround there is to use Claude with `npx @anthropic-ai/claude-code` 2nd bug is worse, he claims that --resume always breaks cache. And there doesn't seem to be a workaround there, except pinning to a very old version (that will miss on tons of features) This bug is also documented on Github and confirmed by other folks. I won't entertain the conspiracy theories there that Anthropic "chooses" to ignore these bugs because it gets them more $$$, they are actively benefiting from everyone hitting as much cached tokens as possible, so this is absolutely a great find and it does align with my thoughts earlier. The very sudden spike in reporting for this, the non-uniform nature (some folks are completely fine, some folks are hitting quotas after saying "hey") definitely points to a bug. cc @trq212 @bcherny @_catwu for visibility in case this helps all of us.

My feed is showing me a bunch of folks who tapped out their whole usage limits on Mon/Tue. Is this your experience? Please comment, I want to understand how widespread this is

Very cool program that Valspar is doing. I can invite one person to be my honorary observer each day! (Inside the rope experience) I’ll pick a follower that live in the area and can drive over. Comment below which day you want to come out.

@bcherny Does this work when using the api or an api proxy? I don't see the option when routing through litellm

@MarioNawfal My guess is RFK resigns any day because he doesn't stand for this and he has no power to do anything

🚨🇺🇸 RFK Jr promised to ban artificial food dyes. Instead the FDA just let companies slap "no artificial colors" labels on food that still has toxic shit in it. Example? Titanium dioxide. Natural substance. Banned in the EU because regulators literally couldn't confirm it's safe. It's linked to cancer, neurotoxicity, and birth defects. Also it's found in nearly 2,000-11,000 US food products. Under the new rules, companies can put titanium dioxide in your kid's candy and still label it "no artificial colors." More needs to be done!

One of the greatest cheat codes in life is to never get offended. Train yourself to have a thick skin. Don't take things personally. Let others disagree with you. Being easily offended means you're easily manipulated. Want more peace? Avoid getting offended.

@blockchainchick Of course this is coming from someone who has bitcoin in their profile. If people actually think you can't sell physical silver it's because of fake posts like this and the one you quoted.

Aldi is incredible. For my household of 6 we used to spend 450-500$ a week on groceries at target. I just rolled out of Aldi for 192$ and got everything we used to get there minus a couple things. No name brands, no fluff, I love it
