Anthropic engineers just released the best 1-hour course on building agents with Opus 5.5:
"Opus 5.5 is the best model for building agentic systems."
00:00 - intro to Managed Agents
07:45 - Opus 5.5 brain + architecture
23:40 - skills, loops, memory graphs
54:00 - agent dreaming and orchestration
Prompts → Agents → Loops → Graphs
most people will stop after the architecture chapter and call it an agent
the last twenty minutes are where the agents start running each other
same model, same tokens, completely different week
watch it today

I had no idea how functional a lot of what I considered “ornamentation” was before I followed this account! I am so grateful for his knowledge.
Panelled doors wasn't a pretty extra but a clever solution to doors expanding with moisture and warping or jamming shut. Because wood expands and contracts in relation to the ambient air humidity (and also rain etc. if outdoors), the wood panels (not nailed or glued) could move freely inside the groves of the frame. This allowed tight doors that shut very close to the door frame, often mere millimeters or fractions of an inch, giving us ncreased privacy and better acoustics.
And they look very charming.
Adobe empire just got destroyed by a solo vibe-coder with Opus 5.5.
He got mad at Adobe's cancellation fee.
So he rebuilt the entire Creative Cloud. In pure Rust. For free.

The degree to which Trump will do anything in the interest of self gain is truly staggering. It beggars belief that he has been considered worthy to lead a nation. Not once but twice. The USA (as a whole, not its individual parts) has a lot to answer for in giving him this leeway
🚨 BREAKING: President Trump officially announces he's awarding ELON MUSK the National Medal of Science
MUCH deserved! 👏🏻
Five others are also receiving the honor, including:
- Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella
- Google co-founder Sergey Brin
- Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang
- AMD CEO Lisa Su
- Dell CEO Michael Dell

🦔Meta classified its AI data centers as "experimental pilot facilities" on its tax return. That let the Nvidia chips inside them qualify for the federal research tax credit. Meta's research credit savings went from $700 million in 2023 to $3.9 billion in 2025 and its federal tax bill dropped nearly 71%. Meta's $3.9 billion is over 10% of the entire federal research credit, claimed by one company. The facilities include a 5-gigawatt campus in Louisiana that cost above $50 billion. Meta's own reserve for potential IRS challenges grew 45% to $18.74 billion.
My Take
Meta is calling a $50 billion data center campus an experiment. The research credit was designed in the 1980s for companies that tried things that might not work. Meta used it to write off Nvidia GPUs by the tens of thousands in facilities that power Instagram, WhatsApp, and a commercial AI product with 2.8 million downloads. Tax experts called the classification "kind of wild" and they're right.
$3.9 billion in tax savings is a lot of money. That's money the Treasury didn't collect from a company worth $1.5 trillion. Meta's own filings show they know this might not hold up because they increased their IRS dispute reserve by 45% to $18.74 billion. If the IRS challenges it and wins, Meta owes billions in back taxes. If the IRS doesn't challenge it, every other hyperscaler files the same claim next year. Either way this reshapes how AI infrastructure gets taxed. Communities already fight data centers over noise, water, and property values. Now the tax code hands them a $3.9 billion subsidy on top of it.

If you want it to stay yours, don’t run it through genAI. Personally, I only use it for the relatively unimportant stuff. Don’t give the important stuff away. Not now. Not ever.
Schizophrenic people often hear voices in their heads. My new brain blog describes research showing where these voices come from and, better still, fresh fMRI research that helps people turn the volume down on those voices (using a neurofeedback approach) bit.ly/4jt4MFw

‼️ BREAKING: Jensen Huang says Dario Amodei and Sam Altman are lying by asking for more laws. Read between the lines, he said. They're asking to be released from the laws we already have. "I think that's a problem."
The existing ones already cover it. Unauthorized entry, damage liability, product liability. He pointed to the labs' own security incidents as the example. Apply those first. Don't let a doomsday narrative relieve anyone of the laws that do exist, Nvidia's CEO told CBS News.
🚨 BREAKING: US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent declares OpenAI management personally responsible for HuggingFace hack
> "The Hugging Face incident, that is the responsibility of the OpenAI management, not a bunch of agents."
> "It is humans who are responsible, not the AI."
> "What we shouldn’t do on safety is to give these labs a liability exemption, which is what they are asking for."
> "The best way to guarantee safety is that the creators are liable for what they build and generate."

So… we asked GPT Sol to test our online cognitive study, and it completed the tasks and produced plausible subjective reports. We launch in a week. How worried should we be about participants handing their study links to AI agents? 1/7

The winner of an Anthropic hackathon open sourced his entire Claude Code setup - and this is absolute f*cking gold
68 subagents, 286 skills, 94 commands, MIT license
ECC swaps a lone Claude Code assistant for a whole engineering department
a blueprint comes before any build, a failing test comes before any fix, and every change gets a second look from a context that never saw it written
• who does what
> planning - hand it a single sentence, get back a plan you sign off before a line of code
> review - a fresh-context read of your diff, with its own reviewer for each language
> build repair - a dedicated fixer per toolchain, PyTorch and CUDA included
> security - an OWASP sweep, plus a scanner hunting injection holes in your agent config
> architecture - catches design mistakes while they're still cheap, before they turn into migrations
> domain work - database queries, ML pipelines, e2e tests, docs
the security duo is the piece most people never set up
an external OWASP audit costs four figures and a week of waiting
this one wraps up on your branch by lunchtime
• what the skills cover
> testing - tdd-workflow moves you from red to green, eval-harness runs above it
> language packs - Python, Go, Rust, C++, Django, Laravel, Spring Boot, Next.js
> context - search-first checks the docs before writing, iterative-retrieval stops your whole repo flooding the window
> shipping - Docker, CI/CD, health checks, rollbacks, migrations
> beyond code - writing in your voice, market research, pitch decks
fork it, trim it, and have your own version running by tomorrow
begin with a single plan and a single rules pack
turning on all 286 skills at once is the quickest way to make it worse
whoever wires this in over a weekend spends the next quarter reviewing work instead of typing it

🦔An NYU mathematician says OpenAI used his own progress against him to beat him to one of the biggest unsolved problems in mathematics. Tristan Buckmaster had been working toward a Millennium Prize proof using OpenAI's Codex when information about his progress reached OpenAI.
Days later, OpenAI published a full proof of the same problem using the same uncommon approach, after burning $22.5 million in compute to get there. When Buckmaster confronted them, exec Sébastien Bubeck allegedly said "Why would you ruin your career?" and "If you don't want me to be nice, then I don't have to be nice."
My Take
OpenAI spent $22.5 million to solve a problem with a $1 million prize. They didn't do this for the bounty. They needed a headline that says "our AI solved one of the hardest problems in mathematics" and they needed it before someone else got credit. They started days after they heard about Buckmaster's progress and took the same uncommon approach he'd pursued for months. That's hard to explain as coincidence.
Buckmaster did his work inside Codex. OpenAI reserves the right to train on Codex data. They admit they can't rule out that his usage helped improve their models. So a customer used their product, potentially handed them the roadmap, and then OpenAI outran him with $22.5 million in compute he could never match. I don't know if any of this was intentional. But if you're a researcher and you just watched this happen, I don't think you'd keep your best ideas inside someone else's product.
