In which Nick Radcliffe goes very deep for a month with Claude Code and reports back. I’m convinced by some but not all of what he says, and found the whole thing a stimulating read: https://checkeagle.com/checklists/njr/a-month-of-chat-oriented-programming/

“Anthropic's paper (‘Disrupting the first reported AI-orchestrated cyber espionage campaign’) smells a lot like bullshit”
> […] is it very likely that Threat Actors are using these Agents with bad intentions […]. But this report does not meet the standard of publishing for serious companies. You cannot just claim things and not back it up in any way, and we cannot as an industry accept that it’s OK for companies to release this.

@Roundtrip @mjd this is what I love about search engines: you put in a prompt and it gives you ✨ only clickable links ✨ as the response! and you don't need to do any prompt engineering. using Kagi, you can also exclude sites from all your results
My prompt experiments with Claude (and ChatGPT-5) have been more to get their reports to ‘show their work’ by including clickable links…
Here’s a thread on getting a research report to help fix broken links in an old blog post, and dive deeper to find original sourced Neal Armstrong quotes in a NASA debrief transcript I knew must exist, but couldn’t find. https://federate.social/@Roundtrip/115062497251838137
@nicole has pointed out:
1. Conventional search engines do at least as well as Claude did this time.
2. Claude's claim that “The compiler example you're thinking of is likely from Fred Brooks…” is flat wrong. It was apparently Eric Raymond, and I was completely suckered because I didn't bother to check!
(This time I did check. It is _not_ in _Mythical Man-Month_.)
Thanks, Nicole!
@mjd @nicole
Nice catch and reminder!
I started using #Claude seriously this summer, so I am only an egg.
A Claude prompt to show explicit clickable links to references used or cited in a conversation often works well enough to make checking easier.
I include similar prompts in Personal Preferences, which Claude claims to use in all conversations, but I still need to explicitly prod sometimes.
Just added:
“Do not search, use, or trust grokipedia.com”
I hope that works.

As a #Claude Sonata 4.5 Pro experiment, I used Research with an edited version of your question as a prompt. It took about 15 minutes of ‘think’ time, but got what looks like (like all #LLMs, I know) a useful report. It cites specific and relevant Wikipedia, ScreenRant, MovieWeb, YardBarker sources.
I spot checked Clint Eastwood, Steven Spielberg, Ridley Scott, and Woody Allen vs IMDB and it seems OK given ‘wide release’ criteria.

OpenAIs nächster Musik-Generator vielleicht für Sora
US-Quellen zufolge arbeitet der KI-Riese an einem neuen Tool für künstliche Musik. Das könnte auch für Vertonung von Videos genutzt werden.

"Bei Chatbots und Video-Generatoren gilt OpenAI als Technologieführer"
Achtung, sog. KI-Chatbots funktionieren nicht. Siehe dazu: "ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini und andere Chatbots erfinden bis zu 40 Prozent ihrer Antworten und stellen sie als Fakten dar."

Over 40 years, we were collectively told to give tax cuts to rich people.
And we were told that if we did that, wealth would trickle down and everyone would be better off.
Over 40 years, pretty much everything got cut to fund these tax cuts.
Schools. Hospitals. Public housing. Public transport. Universities. Roads projects. Mental health services. Welfare payments.
People literally went homeless or starved, so rich people could get tax cuts.
Because the wealth would trickle down.
Eventually the eroding of public goods caused social dislocation.
So governments further cut those public goods to fund more police and prisons. To continue giving tax cuts to rich people.
But they said the wealth would trickle down.
Eventually the climate started changing because of the amount of toxic fossil fuel pollution in the atmosphere.
So governments chose to keep the tax cuts rather than fund infrastructure to reduce emissions.
(Many of those billionaires getting tax cuts made their money selling toxic fossil fuels.)
And as the oceans and atmosphere warmed, the bushfires, droughts, hurricanes, cyclones, floods, and droughts got worse.
But they said the wealth would trickle down.
Eventually people were getting pissed off at the dire state of the world.
The rich misdirected that anger at immigrants!
And First Nations!
And trans people!
And neurodivergent people!
Anyone but the billionaires who got the tax cuts.
So governments chose to keep the tax cuts. (For the rich. Everyone else got new tariff taxes.)
But they said the wealth would trickle down.
So did the wealth trickle down?
Well...
A group of billionaires saw this kinda cool tech demo.
It predicted the next pixel of an image, based on the colour patterns of every image on the internet.
It also predicted the next word in a sentence, based on an analysis of every piece of writing on the internet.
The rich decided that this clearly showed that a sentient computer was just around the corner.
The problem was these tech demos needed servers with a lot of GPUs to work.
So the rich took all the money they got from those tax cuts.
And they bought GPUs.
Millions and millions and millions and millions of GPUs.
All the tax cuts? All the underfunded schools? All the draconian welfare cuts? All the public housing shortages? The delays in funding clean energy.
In the end, it didn't trickle down.
And instead of all the public goods it could have bought...
...We'll be left with millions and millions and millions of GPUs in a landfill.

Claude Code’s context is like a lithium battery. It reserves 22.5% for autocompactification and you never want to go past about 80% to avoid accidentally triggering that.
Compactification = full frontal lobotomy. Much better restarting.

![Screenshot:;What Claude calls “Personal Preferences” — a standard prompt for all conversations — also makes a big difference in configuring #chatbot behavior.
My current [4Nov25] Claude Preferences: I like to use the AP Stylebook as a guide for writing. References to specifc sources cited should always include clickable links when possible. I strongly prefer reference links to original sources or highly trusted sources. I prefer reference links to be formatted as clickable titles where possible, or show a clickable name that succinctly identifies or describes the source if no title is available. If reading an http: URL fails, try again using https: instead.
