Devcontainers look perfect but also like a bit of a burden to entry with regards to setup.

> Erich Strelzyk learned of his brother's escape on the ZDF news and was arrested in his Potsdam apartment three hours after the landing. The arrest of family members was standard procedure to deter others from attempting escape. He was charged with "aiding and abetting escape", as were Strelzyk's sister Maria and her husband, who were sentenced to 2½ years. The three were eventually released with the help of Amnesty International.
People - here in Germany as well as abroad - forget too easily what a sinister but also ridiculous state the GDR was.
Authoritarians everywhere belong on the dustpile of history.
It's in the announcement and look at what Microslop and Google have done to their versions.
This makes me angry.
Saying this as a German, where the economy is the worst it’s been in decades and our federal government acts incapable at changing this so far.
Anyone who’s been to China, Israel or the US will be familiar with the pragmatism and, more importantly speed things happen in these places.
I do like Europes rules on civil liberty and privacy protections, but let’s not pretend the bureaucracy is on a unique scale across the board.
Yes, millions of people in the poorest nations have been raised out of absent poverty since, but beyond that, wealth has flowed to the top 1% any country you look at (check median wealth ownership in the US, basically plummeted for the average Joe since the mid 80s), the environment has gone to shit and the generational promise that the children will have it better than their parents has gone over board with asset prices ballooning.
I‘m right there with you, the societal promise of meritocracy and the middle class was broken in the early 90s and so far there is no replacement in sight.
Yeah this is just flawed.
If this kind of software trend continues in 2026, it might be the first time I take a serious look at Linux distros on Mac.
The information density and clarity are outstanding.
An actual sentence written by a "Chief of Software"...
How are people getting hired at such prestigious engineering companies putting out such sentences?
Sorry if this sounds snarky, but I'm blown away.
This is seemingly a team wasting god knows how many man hours and $$$ on tool spend assuming things top down instead of collecting data and benchmarking bottom up.
Crazy on so many levels.

What an elegant, interesting read.
What I don't quite understand: Why is the Clickhouse bug not given more scrutiny?
Like that escape bug was what made the RCE possible and certainly a core DB company like ClickHouse should be held accountable for such an oversight?
Honestly was stumped that there was no more explicit mention of this in the Anthropoc docs after reading this post couple days back.
Sandbox mode seems like a fake sense of security.
Short of containerizing Claude, there seems to be no other truly safe option.
Honestly the main part about nuclear energy is dependence.
In Germany we saw how well that played out in 2022 when Russian gas stopped flowing.
There is a shit ton of innovation around battery technologies, extending the grid and behind the meter micro-grids.
A more diversified, autonomous (as in, wind, solar) energy supply beats Nuclear in terms of national security and long term viability any day.
About reactor malfunctions and fallout?
Yes, I know the chances are slim and you know as well as I do they're not 0.
Whether for betterment remains to be seen.

I get that laymen and the media do it, but imo this looks really bad for an investor.
quality sacrificed for speed, resulting in mediocre, buggy software.
The classic AI business manager formula.
Thank you for your attention on this matte.r
But a 5x increase simply by optimizing the planner is nothing to be ashamed of.

> The filing states plainly that “there is no assurance that any investment will be completed on expected terms, if at all,” referring not only to the OpenAI arrangement but also to Nvidia’s planned $10 billion investment in Anthropic and its $5 billion commitment to Intel.
"We are definitely not Enron"...
So what you're effectively implying is that the court of public (in Israel instances very clearly biased) opinion rules the site?
So guidelines for thee (Israel supporters) but not for me (Israel haters and Antisemites).
A famous poem from Martin Niemöller, who actually lived through facism comes to mind:
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for meIt's the same hate that has killed Jewish Americans in the past year.
Many of these replies are very low on facts, very high on emotionally loaded subjective opinions.
It's a challenging task as BBC and so many more Western media outlets had to retract and amend their own faulty reporting over the last few months, but if we're talking about the spirit of the site, everyone should be held accountable equally.
