Dear @DarioAmodei & @AnthropicAI team, Claude with Fable 5 was the best software product I have ever used. Losing access was a gut punch - and I know I'm far from alone. I want to help bring it back, fast. At @selfxyz we've built the missing piece to make Anthropic compliant with the government's directive: a way to gate Fable 5 and Mythos 5 to verified US citizens. Self.xyz lets Claude users create and share a cryptographic proof of US citizenship by NFC-scanning the biometric chip in their US passport. It's privacy-preserving, independently audited, and already trusted by major companies at scale. My team is ready to work directly with yours, starting today, to wire this in. Everyone here in the US wants their Fable 5 access back. Let's give it to them. Rene

being SOC 2 is the last defensible moat

since i started using ai, i often feel like i’m shaping clay where i was carving stone

anthropic and openai have such different approaches in their missions to deliver ai to people openai delivers products with a top-down approach. anthropic builds tools by focusing on a specific job and adapts its harness to automate tasks

I got hooked on the HTML specs thing it's funny to discover the power of this forgotten relic mainly it’s doing a good job for visualisation, but it takes a lot of time to get there, esp if you want to render a bunch of graphs (used mermaid here) it makes taking technical decisions faster keeps traces god forgive me ˗ˏˋ ✞ ˎˊ˗ I gave in to temptation and added a JS script locally to store some local state and export all the answers to feed that back into claude

spend two days drafting specs, let claude one shot them in half an hour. the bottleneck is QA and knowing what you want.

~25 years later btw

i love the new direction. so many times I wanted to join hackathons to work on new features for @selfxyz.

Todos reaccionan a los tweets de @marcos_galperin con lecciones morales, pero nadie propone soluciones reales. La izquierda plantea emitir más dinero: mejorar artificialmente ingresos hoy a costa de más inflación, más devaluación y más pobreza mañana. Esa factura siempre la pagan los que menos tienen. Otra propuesta, popular en autores como Thomas Piketty, es subir impuestos a ricos o a la herencia. Pero en la práctica esas políticas incentivan la elusión fiscal, castigan el éxito y destruyen la cultura de la meritocracia. Si un país sube impuestos, el capital se va a otro país con mejores condiciones. Por lo tanto no es sostenible a largo plazo. Pero hay otra forma de pensarlo. Con el stack de @Celo se puede crear un fondo público y transparente en blockchain, usando ZK (como @selfxyz), donde cualquiera pueda donar de forma anónima y donde solo personas mayores de 65 años con pasaporte argentino puedan recibir un ingreso mensual automático 🇦🇷 Sin emitir dinero Sin hacer que el país sea inviable para recibir inversión extranjera Sin nuevos impuestos Sin intermediarios Sin punteros políticos Sin obligar a nadie Operado por smart contracts Esta idea no compite con el sistema actual de jubilaciones. Lo hackea desde afuera. Así, todos los que tanto pregonan solidaridad podrían ayudar libremente a los jubilados, sin trasladarle el costo a los más pobres vía emisión monetaria / nuevos impuestos o sin incentivar una fuga de capitales de los más ricos. La tecnología ya permite diseñar este tipo de mecanismos en un día con @claudeai. La pregunta es: ¿creen que alguien estaria dispuesto a donar voluntariamente? ¿somos tan coherentes con lo que decimos en redes o es solo un discurso para ganar votos o para sentirnos mejor con nosotros mismos? Me interesa genuinamente leer su opinión sobre este tema 👇

If you use Claude in French it will refuse to work past 5pm

I was wondering why they were so present at @googlecloud NEXT conference with ads all around Vegas... now i know 😁

📸 At #GoogleCloudNext, co-founder and Head of Engineering @rems000 discussed how Self uses Google Cloud Confidential Space for privacy-first proof-of-human and identity verification. Next up: Self x Google's stablecoin distribution platform, launching soon!

landing in sf, who should i meet?

it’s super frustrating to hold swiss francs because you buy the S&P500, you make money, then convert it back to swiss francs and realise you lost money

this ethcc was so chill, Cannes is a wonderful place to stay in

LA is the only place on earth where people eat only organic while watching their kids roll around in plastic and feel zero internal contradictions
