Well this is extremely disappointing to say the least.
It says "subscription users do not have access to Opus 4.6 1M context at launch" so they are probably planning to roll it out to subscription users too.

I didn't see any notes but I guess this is also true for "max" effort level (https://code.claude.com/docs/en/model-config#adjust-effort-l...)? I only see low, medium and high.
I've been comparing various platforms and discussing them with ChatGPT—for instance, why Python's execution is slower than JavaScript's V8. It claimed this is due to mtechnical debt and the inability to change because libraries like NumPy bypass public interfaces and access data directly.
I'm wondering how much of that is true and what is just a hallucination."
Btw: JavaScript seems to have similar complexity issues.
Edit: Python has no JIT
It is not that numpy bypasses public interfaces. It uses documented C APIs. V8, as far as I know, does not have that.
ayhanfuat commented on Tell HN: Bending Spoons laid off almost everybody at Vimeo yesterday · Posted by u/Daemon404
From "Vimeo to be acquired by Bending Spoons in $1.38B all-cash deal" (https://techcrunch.com/2025/09/10/vimeo-to-be-acquired-by-be...):
> Bending Spoons has a pattern of acquiring companies, then laying off staff and cutting features. For example, Bending Spoons acquired note-taking and task management app Evernote in 2022, after which the company laid off most of its U.S. and Chile staff and moved operations to Europe in 2023. Evernote then shut down the Linux and older legacy versions of the app, and then proceeded to place heavy restrictions on the app’s free tier in 2024.
> In another example, Bending Spoons acquired WeTransfer in July 2024 and then laid off 75% of its staff a few weeks after. A couple months later, WeTransfer began limiting free users to 10 transfers per month.

I’ve not used duckdb before nor do I do much data analysis so I am curious about this one aspect of processing medium sized json/csv with it: the data are not indexed, so any non-trivial query would require a full scan. Is duckdb so fast that this is never really a problem for most folks?
If you are going to query it frequently then json/csv might become an issue. I think the reason it doesn't become a problem for duckdb/polars users is that we generally convert them to parquet after first read.

Isn't this the basis for every web framework? E.g., Vue Templates?
Frameworks generally change those to standart tags at build time. Vue can be used without a build step so it indeed uses custom tags for components in that scenario but it is not very common to use Vue without a build step.

From TFA last paragraph
> Ultimately, if you already have the second-generation Scribe, I don't think you need to upgrade.... you might as well upgrade to a reMarkable tablet.... a pretty big investment for a still-limited device.... neither of them would be my go-to pick.
Don't think reviewers are getting paid to shill for Amazon.
If you look at the query parameters of the Amazon links you can see that they are affiliate links. It might be more or less an honest review but they do earn money from it.
