Patent was applied for 04.03.2026. langgraph-codeact _shipped_ this capability in February.

In their defense (both OP and HubSpot) the original is written to customers already aware of the context, and HackerNews asks submitters not to editorialize by default.

Moreover, the Library of Congress ruled that LLM outputs are not copyrightable, so technically, Anthropic has even less claim here.

Clair Obscur was perfectly playable for me through GeForce Now, for what it is worth, even when hitting parry timing. (N = 1, but a datum nonetheless)

The harness? I believe the company is planning to ease off in favor of Copilot. But we have our choice of models to use in Copilot, which feature Anthropic's as well.

Given that AI has successfully induced lawyers to use hallucinated cases, I would argue it is already convincing at it, to boot.

To be fair, to some extent that’s up to us. Time to get cleaning, I guess.

This article seems to miss Dawkins' point, which is not to assert that Claude is conscious -- he clearly states that he does not actually know. He seeks to wonder what brought about the evolution of consciousness in the first place.

They aren't wrong, but I suspect they are not going far enough in their prediction.

The future of AI will be dominated by Personal Computing, just like with normal application software, since AI, particularly voice and video and computer interaction, are at the IO layer and thus latency-sensitive for online tasks, and that is before privacy gets into the picture at all.

You do not need a Professional or Enterprise license to use the Visual Studio Build Tools:

> Previously, if the application you were developing was not OSS, installing VSBT was permitted only if you had a valid Visual Studio license (e.g., Visual Studio Community or higher).

From (https://devblogs.microsoft.com/cppblog/updates-to-visual-stu...). For OSS, you do not even need a Community License anymore.

Why not use winget to do it?

`winget install --id Microsoft.VisualStudio.2022.BuildTools`.

If you need the Windows(/App) SDK too for the WinRT-features, you can add `winget install --id Microsoft.WindowsSDK.10.0.18362` and/or `winget install --id Microsoft.WindowsAppRuntime.1.8`

The framing is a bit off - every one of those URLs was created by the user having that conversation. They had to opt in to making it publicly visible.

What’s more curious is how Google got ahold of the URL list itself. Was the individual URLs indexed from somewhere else? Did a clever engineer notice a pattern and add some additional directives for the crawler? Did xAI put them in a sitemap they sent to Google? Something else?

I did not realize the outlet impacts the amperage… Is it a rating issue, or is there an actual part there that will trip?
