@gjordan @AnthropicAI @felixrieseberg FYI I tried to run it in a different Cowork task and it wouldn't run there. So it still needs some playing around with.

@gjordan @AnthropicAI @felixrieseberg Yeah I just got it too. I had Claude write the skill manually and it seems to have worked. It used the skill I had it make (with the _tmp suffix) to send a slack DM to me 5min in the future. I've got a few agents I'm going to instruct to use this until Ant releases it.

Anyone else notice the "schedule-task" skill that @AnthropicAI just shipped? 👀 Gets injected into the Cowork VM. Not functional yet? Seems to reference a "create_scheduled_task" tool that doesn't exist. @felixrieseberg is this real, or did I hallucinate it? lol

Today we’re announcing our new Mentava Basics curriculum, aimed at kids who are still a bit too young for the standard Mentava curriculum. Here’s what people don’t understand about teaching a 2 or 3 year old to read:  The necessary skills for reading don’t all develop at the same time. The ability to associate letters with sounds happens first, and at a pretty early age. If you think about it, learning “this funny shaped animal says moo” is pretty similar to learning “this funny shaped line says aaa.” However, the second necessary skill for reading is blending those letter sounds together, and kids often aren’t developmentally capable of doing that until at least 6-12 months later. Until today, our recommendation has been to wait until the child is developmentally ready to blend sounds. and then we just go full speed and teach them everything all at once, as fast as possible. But sometimes we have students who start a little younger. And then their parents are confused, because they see that their kids are having a ton of fun learning letter sounds super fast, but then are being gatekept from additional learning because they aren't yet developmentally ready to blend those sounds. That’s why we created the new Mentava Basics curriculum. Mentava Basics lets our youngest students focus on letter/sound pairings until they're developmentally ready to begin blending them. Mentava Basics takes the fun and delight of the core Mentava experience, but applies it to a curriculum that’s developmentally appropriate for even younger children. Mentava’s standard curriculum is still the fastest way to go from zero to reading, but with Mentava Basics now we can give kids a head start by helping them learn their letter sounds in advance. If your child is struggling with blending and you think it may just be a developmental readiness issue, you can use the grownup menu to switch into the Mentava Basics curriculum. We save your progress on both pathways, so you can switch back to our standard curriculum whenever you want.

Just got the Bay Area tsunami warning but, based on the map, this kind of tsunami seems more likely where we are.

LLMs still can't plan. Llama-3.1-405b and Claude can plan a bit on Blocksworld. GPT4 and Gemini not so much. Performance is abysmal for everyone on Mystery Blocksworld.

@Jak4all @spire_health Sounds interesting, Jak. Though we focus a lot on predicting and escalating acute physiologic deterioration, we do leverage our stress reduction roots in our service. Please msg me at neema@spirehealth.com.

@moraveji @spire_health Neema - My primary focus is on RPM & CCM with Medicare. We also have a developing project where we're confident that stress reduction can impact a persistent problem for a high-profile client. Let me know who I should engage on your team to discuss this if you like.

@spire_health - looking at spirehealth.com/technology - and as a user of Spire v1.0 I'm wondering why you got away from tracking #HRV.

@Jak4all @spire_health Hi Jak, I don't have links to publicly available resources from risk-bearing entities here, but my experience with such orgs indicates they are interested in preventative services that anticipate and intervene on acute deterioration, regardless of condition.

@moraveji @spire_health Neema, your website states, "Respiratory effort variation is a leading indicator of physiological decline in a number of health contexts." Can you share a link to more information on Medicare and other Payors' view on use cases? What if both heart and lung issues are present?

When thinking of #COPD, older men who were chronic smokers often come to mind. However, what might be surprising is more women are being diagnosed with the condition. This #COPDMonth, stay up to date on lung health & certain conditions that affect women: nhlbi.nih.gov/BreatheBetter/…

I'll be doing a COVID-themed guided meditation for UX professionals tomorrow.

Have you heard of COPD? You know, the *3rd leading cause of death* in the US (and set to grow quickly)? Beyond exercise, take the time to get to know the force that moves your lungs, brain, and heart – your breath. cdc.gov/copd/basics-ab…

Your lungs are a garden of tiny, beautiful flowers that need fresh air to blossom. Not just gusts during a storm but sweet breezes that linger. They are at the ends of long branches so give your breath the time it needs to feed those flowers.

You can't dip your toe into being a father. It's straight into the deep end of an exhilirating lake. It all depends on what kind of dive you want to do and whether you will open your eyes underwater. Any way you do it, it's a real adventure.

@marcroberge Your heart game has never been stronger. Big up.

My text game is in free fall. I’m either seven or eight quick hits or someone’s like “hey, what’s up?” and I can’t get it together to reply for six weeks.

After leaving Stanford, starting a company, growing a family, pivoting a company, losing a child, & feeling small in a bigshot town, I find a cushion and I am proud of myself.
