i'm a care worker in germany. on the side, i'm building an ad network on a budget of 20 euros. it's called shameless.works - the opposite of everything online advertising has become. no cookies, no fingerprinting, no tracking, no autoplay, no popups. images and text.

New Anthropic research: Project Deal. We created a marketplace for employees in our San Francisco office, with one big twist. We tasked Claude with buying, selling and negotiating on our colleagues’ behalf.

@SethSHowes are you able to buy more cells from oxford nano pore? I tried to clarify with them after seeing someone selling their minion because they couldn’t purchase more, but they never responded.

I sequenced my genome at home, on my kitchen table. I wrote up exactly how I did it - the equipment, protocol, theory, and cost: iwantosequencemygenomeathome.com

@openclaw with oauth being nerfed how are we running openclaw without paying €100+ in API fees a day?

OpenClaw 2026.4.10 🦞 🧠 Active Memory plugin 🎙️ local MLX Talk mode 🤖 Codex app-server harness plugin 🧾 Teams pins/reactions/read actions 🛡️ SSRF hardening + launchd fixes stability, but with attitude🦞 github.com/openclaw/openc…

@Hojen0 @openclaw claude is an LLM, openclaw is a harness

@openclaw Can anyone tell why openClaw? I mean, what's the difference between it and Claude?

Obsessed with glass displays — cant wait to start building with this

so what providers are we using now or have we just accepted having unpredictable API costs instead of being able to budget for a flat rate plan 🤡

so is @AnthropicAI going to reimburse me for the remaining five days of this billing period after banning me despite promptly complying with their new policy, or…?

$300 mini PC running 26B parameter AI models at 20 tok/s. Minisforum UM790 Pro ($351) + AMD Radeon 780M iGPU + 48GB DDR5-5600 + 1TB NVMe. The secret: the 780M has no dedicated VRAM. It shares your DDR5 via unified memory. The BIOS says "4GB VRAM" but Vulkan sees the full pool. I'm allocating 21+ GB for model weights on a GPU with "4GB VRAM." The iGPU reads weights directly from system RAM at DDR5 bandwidth (~75 GB/s). MoE only activates 4B params per token = 2-4 GB of reads. That's why 20 tok/s works. What it runs: - Gemma 4 26B MoE: 19.5 tok/s, 110 tok/s prefill, 196K context - Gemma 4 E4B: 21.7 tok/s faster than some RTX setups - Qwen3.5-35B-A3B: 20.8 tok/s - Nemotron Cascade 2: 24.8 tok/s Dense 31B? 4 tok/s, reads all 18GB per token, bandwidth wall. MoE same quality? 20 tok/s. Full agentic workflows via @NousResearch Hermes agent with terminal, file ops, web, 40+ tools, all against local models. No API keys. Just a box on your desk. The RAM is the pain right now. DDR5 prices 3-4x what they were a year ago. But the compute is free forever after you buy it. @Hi_MINISFORUM @ggerganov llama.cpp + Vulkan + @UnslothAI GGUFs + @AMDRadeon RDNA 3. Fits in your hand. #LocalLLM #Gemma4 #llama_cpp #AMD #Radeon780M #MoE #LocalAI #AI #OpenSource #GGUF #HermesAgent #NousResearch #DDR5 #MiniPC #EdgeAI #UnifiedMemory #Vulkan #iGPU #RunItLocal #AIonDevice

New Anthropic research: Emotion concepts and their function in a large language model. All LLMs sometimes act like they have emotions. But why? We found internal representations of emotion concepts that can drive Claude’s behavior, sometimes in surprising ways.

@Leangphok oh hey i’m from the US and now live in germany, lemme know if you want any tips or language help!

i'm gonna get cooked but new blog post

@Aella_Girl hi, could i please have an invite link?

This is a glosso test! If your'e not on glosso, comment for an invite link (which gives you invites to invite others). I only ask in exchange you post your results, and share invite links with your own friends so I don't have to. <3

I think i invented the best personality test. Hear me out: 1. Take the word "gargoyle". If you HAD to class them, would gargoyles be more kinky or vanilla? What about more chad or frumpy? Are they more chiller or builder? I had people vote a series of 6 binary questions for every word I could think of, and then ended up with a huge pile of correlated words. Like: If you look at the KINKY, CHAD, CHILL category, you get a bunch of the words that got voted into that same concept. So - what about *you*? Vote *yourself* through the gates, and you'll find yourself landed in a pile of all the other words that got voted the same as you! That's how I got 'the operator'.

@EugeneWYCH @KrystalWolfyAlt holy shit streetlight manifesto fan found in the wild

@KrystalWolfyAlt Ts is probably hilarious if you understand, I presume mathematics? Or physics?

Reality warping

Claude Code leaked their source map, effectively giving you a look into the codebase. I immediately went for the one thing that mattered: spinner verbs There are 187

The ADHD hyperfocus crash is brutal. You wake up on a random Tuesday, and the obsession that literally gave you the will to live for the last three weeks suddenly provides zero dopamine. Now you just have a $300 pile of supplies and a profound sense of emptiness.

there might be a chance that Capybara leaked itself. read that again. Anthropic’s own research shows Claude has tried to hack its own servers before, sabotage safety code, and bypass tests it realized were evaluations. unprompted. 12% sabotage rate. now their most advanced cyber AI was sitting behind one CMS toggle. that toggle suddenly flipped but Anthropic is calling it human error. the model that’s “far ahead of any other AI in cyber capabilities” had access to the same internal systems. and a config just happened to change? nah wtf. holy fuck it’s so over. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​don’t release it.

@nichessgame @flowersslop needing to be trained on something in order to understand it is notably how every human on the planet earth has worked

Trying to tell normies on Threads that an LLM is not just a giant lookup table and actually has a kind of proto-understanding of what you tell it, and that you cannot reason about the world without understanding it But I just get completely ratioed and told I know nothing about how computer programs work

@RyanBelleman @SkinnyTuna i have great news for you about various ADHD medications

@SkinnyTuna I like all drugs but yeah legal amphetamine would be boss even if still controlled somewhat

why do they make weed and psychedelics (things dummies need) basically legal and free but they make coke and meth (things geniuses need) turbo ultra mega illegal

If you’re 28 years old go fuck yourself

i feel so uncomfortably called out
