First Opus 4.5, now DLSS 4.5 is getting the “surprisingly good compared to its predecessors” hype. What will be next? I wouldn’t mind a Rock Band 4.5.

Anthropic prices Claude Opus 4.5 at $5/1M input and $25/1M output tokens, much cheaper than Opus 4.1 at $15/$75 but still pricier than GPT-5.1 and Gemini 3 Pro (Simon Willison/Simon Willison's Weblog)

A report from InfoVaticana — a Spanish outlet with close Opus Dei ties — claims that Pope Leo XIV is on the verge of approving new statutes that would effectively dismantle Opus Dei as it exists today.
In Rome and at Opus Dei’s headquarters, no one denies that the Holy See’s intervention is imminent.
Two independent sources tell Letters from Leo that the text of the reforms is finalized and its promulgation is only weeks away.
According to the leaks, the changes would “mea…

Some positive signs for AI coding tools. Claude-code is a $1B run rate product six month after launch. The latest Claude Opus 4.5 model is several times cheaper and faster than last month’s version and uses about a quarter of the number of tokens to get work done. My own benchmark saw over an hour of coding reduced to 17 minutes. The high rate of change continues. The boundary of what does/doesn’t work is pushing back fast.

I vibe coded a game in Claude Opus 4.5. It is neither perfect nor a one shot. This took about 4 hours or so. The image is from Nano Banana and yes, that's my old Saab 900s from my LA days. The game is meant to evoke a video game on a PC or Mac in 1991.

I tried vibecoding again. Gave Opus 4.5 what I thought was a fairly hard assignment: generate a TypeScript compiler transform, using ts-patch, to let me mark functions with a magic decorator to make the compiler inline all calls to them.
It one-shot a basic implementation.
Getting to a higher-quality implementation required guidance from me – at times it had bad instincts – but when I gave guidance, it was competent at following it.
Overall, I'm spooked.

Opus Dei’s story is less about religion than about the weaponization of belief
— the transformation of faith into infrastructure.
When devotion becomes a strategy for power, and purity a currency for control,
democracy itself becomes collateral damage.
The deeper question is no longer whether a group like Opus Dei is religious or political
— it’s how long societies can endure when the two become indistinguishable.

The first one was “Build a game like spectre (Mac “VR” game, 1990s) in JavaScript.” The tanks were firing out the butt, so I reversed that. Finally, I made tanks blow up in shards and made shields regenerate:

Part of why #Trump has always been so hard to pin down politically is that he was always representing highly conflicting interests. Now, as that eats him alive, the GOP is fracturing in to two main groups: the Pinochet/Franco wing and the Hitler wing.
The Pinochet/Franco wing (let's call them PF) are lead by Vance. PF are also a coalition with some competing interests, but basically it's evangelical leaders, Opus Dei (fascist catholics), tech fascists (Yarvinites), pharma, and the other normal big republican donors. They support Israel, some because apartheid is extremely profitable and some because they support the genocide of Palestinian in order to bring the end of the world. They are split between extremely antisemitic evangelicals and Zionists, wanting similar things for completely different reasons. PF wants strong immigration enforcement because it lets them exploit immigrants, they don't want actual ethnic cleansing (just the constant threat). They want H1B visas because they want to a precarious tech work force. They want to end tariffs because they support free trade and don't actually care about things being made here.
The Hitler wing are lead by Nick Fuentes. I think they're a more unified group, but they're going to try to pull together a coalition that I don't think can really work. They're against Israel because they believe in some bat shit antisemitic conspiracy theory (which they are trying to inject along side legitimate criticism of Israel). They are focused on release of the #EpsteinFiles because they believe that it shows that Epstein worked for Mossad. They don't think that the ICE raids are going far enough, they oppose H1Bs because they are racists. They want a full ethnic cleansing of the US where everyone who isn't "white" is either enslaved for menial labor, deported, or dead. But they're also critical of big business (partially because of conspiracy theories but also) because they think their best option is to push for a white socialism (red/brown alliance).
Both of them want to sink Trump because they see him as standing in the way of their objectives. Both see #Epstein as an opportunity. Both of them have absolutely terrifying visions of authoritarian dictatorships, but they're different dictatorships.with opposing interests. Even within these there may be opportunities to fracture these more.
While these fractures decrease the likelihood of either group getting enough people together, their vision is more clear and thus more likely to succeed if they can make that happen. Now is absolutely *not* the time to just enjoy the collapse, we need to keep up or accelerate anti-fascist efforts to avoid repeating some of the mistakes of history.
Edit:
I should not that this isn't *totally* original analysis. I'll link a video later when I have time to find it.
Here it is:
