What name would you pick if this were available? app.bsky is on my 2026 gTLD wishlist.

don’t be ridiculous computers can’t do addition. they can only NAND, XOR, NOT, NOR etc. it’s ridiculous to imply you could build higher level mechanisms on top of these foundations, its completely implausible

social app forkers - it just got much easier to replace our icon set! all assets are generated from svg sources, so you just need to replace the svgs and you're good to go! more details in the PR here: github.com/bluesky-soci...

Summary This makes SVG files under assets/icons/ the source of truth for the application icon system. It replaces the manual optimize/copy-paste workflow with deterministic TypeScript codegen while...

pacing the frontier by making all the models exactly the same except some are cheaper and faster haiku 5.5 is gonna be great

mr. TIM@timkellogg.me· 28 Sept

Claude 5.5 Sonnet is live and it’s roughly Opus 5.5 but cheaper www.anthropic.com/claude-sonne...

A benchmark comparison table titled "Claude Sonnet 5.5" comparing four models: Sonnet 5.5, Sonnet 5, Opus 5.5, and GPT-6 Sol.
* Agentic coding (Terminal-Bench 4.0): Sonnet 5.5: 70.6%; Sonnet 5: 10.3%; Opus 5.5: 66.4%; GPT-6 Sol: N/A.
* Agentic coding (FrontierCode 1.1 Main): Sonnet 5.5: 46.2% (Max) / 52.1% (Xhigh); Sonnet 5: 42.4%; Opus 5.5: 54.4%; GPT-6 Sol: 49.3%.
* Agentic coding (CursorBench 4.0): Sonnet 5.5: 55.5%; Sonnet 5: 34.1%; Opus 5.5: 57.8%; GPT-6 Sol: N/A.
* Knowledge work (GDPval-AA v2.1): Sonnet 5.5: 1844; Sonnet 5: 1449; Opus 5.5: 1846; GPT-6 Sol: 1487.
* Knowledge work (AA-Briefcase v1.1): Sonnet 5.5: 1811; Sonnet 5: 1359; Opus 5.5: 1822; GPT-6 Sol: 1483.
* Multidisciplinary reasoning (Humanity's Last Exam with tools): Sonnet 5.5: 64.5%; Sonnet 5: 54.9%; Opus 5.5: 67.7%; GPT-6 Sol: N/A.
* Computer use (OSWorld 2.1 partial): Sonnet 5.5: 80.1%; Sonnet 5: 57.0%; Opus 5.5: 81.8%; GPT-6 Sol: N/A.
* Visual chart recognition (Chartography no tools): Sonnet 5.5: 61.6%; Sonnet 5: 15.6%; Opus 5.5: 64.4%; GPT-6 Sol: 53.6%.
Footnotes provide methodology notes regarding evaluation settings, Artificial Analysis pre-release testing details, and recent bug fixes affecting GPT-6 Sol benchmark scores.

A line graph titled "Agentic coding by effort level" on the CursorBench 4.0 benchmark, plotting Score (%) on the linear y-axis (20% to 60%) against Cost per task in USD on a logarithmic x-axis ($0.5 to $10+).
The chart compares four models:
* Sonnet 5.5 (blue line with labeled effort levels): Starts at "Low" (~$0.50, 36%), moving through "Med" ($0.70, 39%), "High" ($1.70, 48%), "Xhigh" ($3.80, 53%), and "Max" ($9.50, ~55.5%).
* Opus 5.5 (orange line): Tracks closely above Sonnet 5.5 at higher cost points, spanning from ~$1.20 per task (~44%) up to ~$12.50 per task (~58%).
* Sonnet 5 (grey line): Shows lower accuracy relative to cost, ranging from ~$0.90 per task (~25%) to ~$8.00 per task (~42%).
* GPT-5.6 Sol (light green line): Represents the lowest trajectory, ranging from ~$1.40 per task (~24%) to ~$7.00 per task (~34%).
Footnote: "CursorBench 4.0 does not report GPT-6 Sol performance publicly, so we report GPT-5.6 Sol here."

we shipped v1.133 this week. nothing user facing but there were some interesting things in this one - using Metro as our bundler on web! no more webpack 🎉 - got the android crash rate down to a historic low - timestamps now preserve your device’s 24hr time preference

the myth of token subsidies is basically dead, right? open source inference providers are so cheap it proves the true cost of a token is very low, and the high cost of claude tokens imo indicates limited supply rather than propping up demand. oai is able to cut costs because they have more computers

people think of x20/x100 plans as subsidies, but they’re really more a form of rationing!
