taspeotis··on Claude Sonnet 5
> Claude Opus 4.7 and later Opus models, Claude Fable 5, Claude Mythos 5, Claude Mythos Preview, and Claude Sonnet 5 use a newer tokenizer that contributes to their improved performance on a wide range of tasks. This tokenizer produces approximately 30% more tokens for the same text. Claude Sonnet 4.6 and earlier models use the previous tokenizer.
taspeotis··on Beware, Claude Code deletes >30 day old transcripts. Anthropic won't fix it
I thought this was a feature that they tidied up your data
taspeotis··on What happened after 2k people tried to hack my AI assistant
Did anyone try to send a long email that pushed context close to the limit to try and make the agent a bit fuzzy on its original directive not to leak the secrets?
taspeotis··on OpenAI DayBreak – GPT-5.5-Cyber
Perfect, thank you
taspeotis··on OpenAI DayBreak – GPT-5.5-Cyber
So I got turned off the OpenAI form because it’s pretty heavily geared towards “enterprise” which I’m not. But I’ll have a stab at it later.

What’s the equivalent form for Anthropic please? The closest I got from Google was Claude Security’s “contact sales.”

taspeotis··on OpenAI DayBreak – GPT-5.5-Cyber
I don't know what the solution to this is, but I find it somewhat unfair that I pay money to Anthropic, and I pay money to OpenAI, and neither of them will let me use their best models for securing the software I work on.

Admittedly Opus 4.8 xhigh does a good job, but are my customers not entitled to have more security from a Fable/Mythos or GPT-5.5-Cyber audit over the codebase? Or I guess the inverse question: why aren't they allowed that audit?

(Fable/Mythos being unavailable notwithstanding.)

It seems OpenAI will at least let me do this narrowly, at greater cost, by using one of their partners. But I already pay them money!

taspeotis··on Codex logging bug may write TBs to local SSDs
OpenAI really snatched defeat from the jaws of victory late last year when Claude Code was a laggy mess.

Nowadays Codex has typing latency out of the gate, whereas Claude Code has the odd pause but generally displays my key presses as … you know … I press them.

Thanks for securing the web

taspeotis··on We've suspended access to Claude Mythos 5 and Claude Fable 5
Did they suspend it again??

taspeotis··on Anthropic, please ship an official Claude Desktop for Linux
Personally I don’t understand why Claude Code doesn’t have a mode to make text green and characters come down from the top of the screen individually, like in The Matrix.
taspeotis··on Claude Opus 4.8
I had a very bad start to it too, it lost track of where my source code was (in the repo! the current working directory!) and started grepping for .gitignore trying to get a foothold on where the git repo was.

And after that asked some questions that it already had answers to.

Started a brand new session and it's been OK since. Only drawn one silly conclusion so far, which I nudged it away from.

taspeotis··on Jira Is Turing-Complete
I came back to a workplace, that still used JIRA. Obviously during the interview I was like oh JIRA yeah yeah yeah you still use that? I can use that.

Anyway yes, I can use JIRA. But it was a real shock to see the latest version of JIRA. It has a thousand papercuts, one of the worst is double clicking on text select stuff suddenly kicks fields into editor mode.

What I was remembering was JIRA Server 4.0, you can walk down memory lane here* - zoom in enough and you'll see each issue has a title, type, fix version, affects version, and so on, and then you end up going straight to the comments. Very straightforward.

taspeotis··on Elevated error rates on Opus 4.7
Okay so how much less will I have to pay OpenAI for unlimited Opus 4.7?
taspeotis··on Elevated error rates on Opus 4.7
Claude Max 20x gives me unlimited (for my level of usage) Opus 4.7 - how much money do I have pay OpenAI for that?

taspeotis··on Chasing a SharedKey signature mismatch: fix azurerm_storage_table_entity
> The role of Copilot in the investigation

It would be more helpful to know which model was used, rather than “Copilot.”

taspeotis··on Self-updating screenshots
I’ve wondered about doing screenshots from the e2e test run, even keeping docs/ all together in the same repo so when you update the documentation and need a new screenshot you add a new test

Hi, thanks for Claude Code. I was wondering though if you'd considering adding a mode to make text green and characters come down from the top of the screen individually, like in The Matrix?

taspeotis··on SpaceX says it has agreement to acquire Cursor for $60B
Matt Levine writes a bit about this - the Elon Musk Mars Conglomerate. And really if you're investing into e.g. SpaceX you're not investing into SpaceX you're investing into the Elon Musk Mars Conglomerate. And most people seem to want that.

Tesla's the odd one out: it's public but it's still in there, although Musk would probably prefer it to be private too.
