I’m a retired brain surgeon and I wanna tell you why you feel like life is passing by. I just need one minute to explain this to you so hang in there. Repetitive daily routines stop the brain from recording clear detailed memories. When every day looks the same, your brain does not track time the same as a clock does. It tracks change. If nothing new happens then days, months, and years start to blur together. This is know as Time compression. When life lacks variety, your brain compresses past days together, making it feel like time is sped up. To stop feeling like life is passing you by, add new experiences to your life. Break routine habits, like changing your daily home routine, taking a different route to work, or trying a new hobby. Schedule small trips or plan new adventures so your days do not blend together. Practice mindfulness by staying fully focused on what you are doing right now and not trying to race off to the next task. Keep a journal and write down happy memories or memorable parts of the day before you go to sleep. Take deep, calm breaths when you feel anxious or rushed to return your focus to the moment. You can and you will retrain your brain to not feel like life is passing you by by following these few simple measures.

A new Google data center in rural Kansas could double Barber County's tax revenue, bringing in $10 million a year. County Chairman Bryan Quick: "Nothing's perfect, but if we don't do something, we're going to continue to die."

Two months ago, we started the mission to “build OpenClaw with OpenClaw,” and bit by bit, we moved everyone from using their local coding harness to using team.openclaw.ai - our shared agent that knows what everyone’s working on and orchestrates it all. Multiplayer coding + infinite compute with nodes and cloud sessions has been a game changer for how we build. Local harnesses feel like relics of the past now.

There is a critical vulnerability being actively exploited on BTCPay Server, which can result in the loss of funds. Please update your BTCPayServer to 2.4.2 by going to Admin Dashboard -> Server -> Maintenance -> Update & verify the 2.4.2 version string in the footer. If you are unable to update right away, turn off your BTCPay Server to prevent unauthorized access until you can update.

This is a super exciting release - Claude Fable 5 is the same underlying model as Mythos but with added safeguards. The benchmarks are great and it's SOTA on everything by a margin but I'll add that *qualitatively* also, this is a major-version-bump-deserving step change forward (imo of the same order as Claude 4.5 was in November), peaking especially for long problem-solving sessions on very difficult problems. You can give it a lot more ambitious tasks than what you're used to, the model "gets it" and it will just go, and it's never felt this tempting to stop looking at the code at all (but don't do this in prod!). The model still has quirks that people will run into and the safeguards are configured to be a little too trigger happy for launch, which can hopefully be tuned over time. I feel a lot of things changing as working software increasingly comes out on a tap. The Jevon's paradox kicks in and I feel my own demand for software growing substantially. You can ask for anything - explainers, visualizers, dashboards, bespoke single-use apps (e.g. a full wandb that is hyper-specific just for your project), you can 10X your test suite, auto-optimize code, run giant research projects with custom HTML for the results, anything! "Free your mind" (Matrix ref). Really looking forward to all the things people build!
Replying to @claudeai
Fable 5 is state-of-the-art on nearly all tested benchmarks, with exceptional performance in software engineering, knowledge work, scientific research, and vision. The longer and more complex the task, the larger Fable 5’s lead over our other models.

🚨 [ICYMI] extracting data from PDFs just got solved. Someone open-sourced a tool that turns PDFs into Markdown at 100 pages a second 🤯 It’s called OpenDataLoader. It runs flawlessly on CPU and decodes tables, complex layouts, and nested structures like an absolute pro. Best part? 100% free and open-source. Grab the repo link in the 🧵↓

🇮🇷 Iran is charging $2M per ship to cross the Strait of Hormuz and they want it in Bitcoin. 😳 At $72,000 per $BTC, each ship = 27.7 BTC. Pre-crisis, 130 ships crossed daily. • Daily: 3,611 BTC • Monthly: 108,333 BTC • Yearly: 1.3 million BTC The entire Bitcoin network only mines 450 BTC per day. Iran would accumulate 8x the monthly mining supply. Every month. A sanctioned nation building a Bitcoin treasury through a toll booth. This is the most important geopolitical Bitcoin story nobody is talking about. 🔥
