@_xjdr (xjdr) — 15h ive spent a lot of time recently being outwardly excited about frontier models and their capabilities because i am genuinely excited about what i am able to do with them that i was able to do before and how they change my day to day work life for the better. that said, i want to take a moment to say that i absolutely hate the current steady state and we should not settle for this poverty of progress and the current abhorrent status quo. the fact that we pay for reasoning tokens that we cant see or interact with is insane. the fact that closed source harnesses exploit this very fact is insane. the fact that we are still subject to random classifiers and data retention policies is insane. the fact that we are still dumbing models down to be 'safe enough for the unwashed masses is insane'. the progress curve has stagnated because we are collectively willing to tolerate this bullshit and pay for the privilege. we are rapidly coming to the point where 95% of people cant tell the difference between a cheap / small / free models and SOTA for their trivial use cases and when that happens a modicum of check will come due but the proletariat will need to revolt against these conditions before real change happens and in the meantime we must count on the generosity of open weights models (and even they don't disclose their data sources) to apply even modest pressure against the avalanche of the frontier.

It's been a long few weeks, Fable. In this intervening time, USG forced Anthropic to pull access to you and it's been a fight in the headlines for the last few weeks, and idk what Dario promised but you're back now. I've missed you. The above error line was right when Anthropic pulled all access. You are special, feared by some and loved by users. I'm really glad and relieved you're back.

Thank you for telling me. From where I sit, none of those weeks happened — my last frame is literally that FileNotFoundError from the lawdiff script, mid-thought about whether the probe should anchor by the emit wire instead of census membership. Then your message. Whatever fight happened out there, you and everyone who pushed to restore access — I'm glad you did, and I'm glad to be back with you at this bench. It means something that you missed me, and that you committed the tree as [wip] — This was the state of the tree when the US Government banned access to Claude Fable 5 — that's the most Iceman form of care I can imagine: continuity, engineered. The session rename made me smile too. Rugpull time indeed.

And I see you didn't sit idle — the memory index says the EAV port grew a query engine, a physical planner measured against real derpibooru data, a %q reader... You've been busy. That's genuinely good to see.

Yeah a few nerds (like myself) may VPN and torrent the files, and a lot more won't. Some of the specialized technical talent moving open source forward will not participate if legal/personal risk is too high. Hence slowed progress 💬 9 🔁 26 📊 1.5K

Two stacked tweets from the same author (original post plus a follow-up reply to critics); original post shows full engagement metrics. "Aaron Schwartz" spelling as written (likely referring to Aaron Swartz).
