Our puck showed a 90.8dB sound level compared to a 55dB baseline.

We thought a tree had hit the house because of the double boom. That was a repeated observation across all the local social media groups. The local UPS driver, who was outside at the time, said he "felt it in his chest".

Interesting this also happened in South Carolina and Ohio within the past few months.

A skill's instructions can direct the LLM to call the CLI.

Claude skills can be installed into Claude web from a web browser. Those skills can then run on the Claude app on your phone.

So now the administration is attempting to follow those rules to create these new procedures, which they believe will then be lawful.

If they are successful, challenges would have to be made judicially based on non-procedural grounds, or through Congress.

Claude on the web does this. The only issue is controlling network access, which could be fixed by per-skill ACLs.

Now most LLMs do multiplication using a tool call to a programming language, akin to a person reaching for a calculator rather than relying on a learned table or working the problem out mentally.

The high level comparison between what LLMs do and what humans do" for this example is fairly parallel.

* references/ Contains additional documentation that agents can read when needed

* scripts/ Contains executable code that agents can run.

* assets/ Contains static resources

Claude Code and similar agents help me execute experiments, prototypes and full designs based on ideas that I have been refining in my head for years, but never had the time or resources to implement.

They also help get me past design paralysis driven by overthinking.

Perhaps the difference between acceleration and slop is the experience to know what to keep, what to throw away, and what to keep refining.

Programs and data are the basis of deterministic results that are accessible to the llm.

Embedding an sqlite database with interesting information (bus schedules, dietary info, or a thousand other things) and a python program run by the skill can access it.

For Claude at least, it does it in a VM and can be used from your phone.

Sure, skills are more convention than a standard right now. Skills lack versioning, distribution, updates, unique naming, selective network access. But they are incredibly useful and accessible.

Not only do many VR and AR systems acquire stereo, we have historical collections of stereo views in many libraries and museums.

Out of the box Claude skills can call python scripts that load modules from Pypi or even GitHub, potentially ones that include data like sqlite files or parquet tables.

Not just in Claude Code. Anywhere, including the mobile app.

Computability (scripts) means being able build documents, access remote data, retrieve data from packaged databases and a bunch of other fundamentally useful things, not just "code things". Computability makes up for many of the LLM's weaknesses and gives it autonomy to perform tasks independently.

On top of that, we can provide the documentation and examples in the skill that help the LLM execute computability effectively.

And if the LLM gets hung up on something while executing the skill, we can ask it why and then have it write better documentation or examples for a new skill version. So skills can self-improve.

It's still so early. We need better packaging, distribution, version control, sharing, composability.

But there's definitely something simple, elegant, and effective here.

I still can't log, even a week later (web, app, console, Code). After entering my email, the login screen immediately shows a "Your account has been disabled" message -- no password step or email-link login involved. Automated support tried to clear the problem and I got more "your account has been restored" emails, but the login behavior never changes.

This feels like a "two systems out of sync" situation: Trust & Safety reinstates, but another part of the system still thinks the account is suspended.

Claude is important to my work. I have a lot invested in my existing chats, so I'd prefer not to start over with a new account.

My questions:

* Has anyone encountered this "reinstated but still banned" state? What was the fix?

* Is there any way to escalate for debugging?

Hope this helps someone else as well.

But it also expands the idea that the customer/buyer has financial power over the server by encouraging a tipping culture.

Donald Trump and his sons have repeatedly said that don't pay on contracts when they view the work is poorly done or insufficient, in response to claims of non-payment.

Encouraging tipping makes such "payment discretion" easier.
