Claude Fable 5 1 month ago

From inside a claude code session:

/model claude-fable-5

Or start claude code with:

claude --model claude-fable-5

I have noticed this. I think it also applies to the popularity of the projects in general and the number of training examples it has seen.

I was testing Github copilot's new "Agent" feature last weekend and rapidly built a working app with Vue.js + Vite + InstantSearch + Typesense + Tailwind CSS + DaisyUI

Today I tried to build another app with Rust and Dioxus and it could barely get the dev environment to load, kept getting stuck on circular errors.

Positives:

- Zero discernible benefits so far.

Negatives:

- Loss of freedom to live, work, study & retire across Europe. Visas now required, often with high income requirements.

- 90/180 day limit on travel. Longer queues at airports, etc when entering the EU to get passports stamped.

- Loss of access to EU/EEA single market, so exporters face significant red tape. This benefits larger companies who can deal with the paper work versus smaller companies in the UK - but still disadvantages all UK companies compared to their European peers.

- Increased mobile roaming fees for UK travellers to Europe.

- Outside Digital Single Market: we can no longer watch TV services like Now TV, Sky while traveling in Europe even with a VPN.

- Loss of EU "passporting" rights for UK financial institutions.

- Irish Sea Border leads to some strange outcomes: creates a customs border within the UK and those born in Northern Ireland have more rights than those born in England, Wales and Scotland since they can retain EU free movement by applying for an Irish passport.

Before Brexit a UK citizen could just jump in a car, train or plane and travel across the EU/EEA almost as if they were in their own country.

I've just disconnected a BobCat miner so I have a spare 1.1m 8.5dBi 868MHz antenna on my roof. Can you recommend a good gateway to get started on TTN?

Are you outside the US? I got the same results, but then realised it's only available in the US at the moment.

I have just started using an Apple Watch Ultra for running and it does seem more accurate to me. My old Series 6 would underreport distance, e.g. a 5k park run would be measured as 4.9km. I also noticed with the Series 6 that if I did a u-turn that my pace would drop considerably as the watch was presumably missing some of the distance I had travelled whereas the Ultra seems much better in this regard.

Internet in a Box 6 years ago

Adrian is very smart! I did a TCP/IP and Firebrick course with him a few (cough over 10) years ago and I learned more in a few days than I did in a year at college.

He set up his own ISP in the UK, and built all the core routers himself, including designing the hardware and writing the router software - see www.firebrick.co.uk
