Holy shit, first run over my project code base. Fable 5.2 is extremely fast and thorough. Fable 5.2 found 14 points to improve my code base for this project that had the majority of it either built or rebuilt with Opus 5.5 yesterday. So bullish on SI
Fable 5.2 is now available in the Claude Platform and Claude Code.
It’s up to 30% faster than Fable 5.1, and costs $8/$40 per 1M tokens, down from $10/$50.

This is great and proof that if you’re smart and ambitious the jobs aren’t going away they’re evolving.

Data centers in Loudoun County, Virginia: “We get $1.2 billion a year in local tax revenue, about 40% of all of our tax revenue...on 3% of our land”
Buddy Rizer, the county's economic development chief, explained how “data center alley” grew:
“We would have never looked at having 55 million square feet of data center, 230-some buildings. That was not the plan. The plan was to utilize the fiber loop, the internet exchange, to utilize a reclaimed water line, and buildings that were already built. That was the plan, right? And so that made a lot of sense.”
“But, you know, fast forward, today we are largely dependent on that. We get $1.2 billion a year in local tax revenue, about 40% of all of our tax revenue. And while that looks overwhelming, data centers take only about 3% of all of our land in the county. So it’s quite a return on investment. You know, 40%, $1.2 billion, on 3% of our land.”
SpaceX’s Arizona data center, per a county supervisor: “We could be reducing property taxes across the board in Cochise County, the entire county, by 20%”
Frank Antenori, whose district includes the site, brought up the county’s tax math during a live Q&A:
“Here’s just something to just chew on. Arizona has an expenditure limit requirement that is placed on counties. If we exceed that expenditure, we have to rebate back to the taxpayers a certain amount.”
“So, if we’re receiving revenue in from SpaceX, by law, we have to offset that to the taxpayers. We have the potential to reduce, based on the projected revenue they’re creating, as much as 20%.”
“Let me just say it again. We could be reducing property taxes across the board in Cochise County, the entire county, by 20% to offset for the revenue here, because we can’t spend all that money. So, we have to give that money back to the taxpayers. The law says we have to.”
“So, you could see a potential significant impact to local property taxes. What that is, I don’t know. We’re going to have to do the math on it. But the law, if we have this large increase in property tax revenue, we have to balance those rates. So that will reduce dramatically the property tax burden of every resident in the county.”
“The construction sales tax, which also is the TPT, the transaction privilege tax, the retail tax, and the jail excise tax. So that will be part of the construction tax. We could literally use that money to pay the jail off in 2 to 3 years, as opposed to the 13 to 20 years.”
“So this could be a revenue to eliminate the half-cent sales tax in 2 to 3 years. We can get rid of that half-cent sales tax.”
So what am I supposed to do for the next 4 days? I still have my Claude subscription but I like running everything through my chief of staff @bot. $100/month plan and I still can’t make it more than 48 hours. 81% of my usage is by builder bot spinning up @cursor_ai cloud agents. Switching from Grok 4.7 fast to normal bought me about 12 hours.

Riley Trettel (Energy & Data Center Development at SpaceX) in yesterdays Cochise Data Center meeting.
He claims the project will deliver up to:
- 40% off residential power bills for Sulphur Springs members, for the life of the project
- $53 million a year to the SSVEC Foundation, for education and the community
- $190 million a year in extra capital for Sulphur Springs, for projects or back to members
- $200 million a year for AEPCO and its members. About $100 million of that for Sulphur Springs
- $3.6 billion in new power lines, paid by SpaceX and given to the co-op. The co-op takes on no debt
- $30 to $100 million a year in new property tax, and a 20% cut in everyone else's county property taxes
- $250 million, one time, in sales tax. He said it could pay off the jail bond and fund the sheriff, fire districts, and the hospital
- $50 billion invested in the project
- 1,000 permanent jobs and 5,000 construction jobs
- No industrial water. Water for staff and maintenance about equal to 20–30 homes a year
- No gas turbines and no power plant on the site. The computers buy power from the co-op grid
- Dark-sky lighting, pointed at the ground
- Cooling equipment more than 1,500 feet from any neighboring property line or public road
This project is clearly extremely positive for the area.

Haley Stevens’ rejection of Elf Sayed and endorsement of Mike Rogers is a good reminder that the real fight isn’t Democrats vs Republicans…it’s Americans vs communists.
Every sane person on the left and the right has to stand unified against the rise of communislam

Ram Chhetri came to the US as a refugee, but this might be worst day of his life: It's the moment he realizes the $80k-$160k/year salary he's bilked from Medicaid for no-show work is coming to an end because @realdailywire caught the truth on camera.
We conducted months of surveillance that shows why "home care aide" is now the *most common job* in states like NY, CA, MN, and PA: Because a large part of those jobs are unambiguous Medicaid fraud.
Thanks to home care, Bhutanese refugees now make more money than actual PA families. The state doesn't just look the other way, but helps them get away with it. Converting federal health dollars into a universal basic income for certain communities relieves the financial burden they place on the state.
The scammers easily deceive the feds' woefully broken monitoring system. You'll see Ram pull into a driveway for 2 minutes in the morning, then 2 minutes in the evening. He clocks in and out of his shift from the right place, and the GPS system doesn't notice that he goes home in between.
$20 an hour doesn't sound like much, but at 77 hours a week, it's $80k–and it's easy to bill huge hours when you don't actually have to work them. And that's just for the low-level guys in this scheme.

I am sick to fucking death of being lectured by the political class and pundits on Paxton. I held my nose and voted for that Beltway Cockroach Cornyn 4 times. How about you vote against the communists instead of virtue signaling your disdain for the Republican primary winner? You think we liked voting for Cornyn? It pissed me off to vote for him but I did it anyway.
Also, if you think you’re going to “teach us a lesson” by crossing the aisle or sitting it out… GFY.

🚨 HOLY CRAP! THIS is the video that Minnesota leftist prosecutors charged Cam Higby with a FELONY over
He dressed as a Muslim and asked if he could vote with ZERO ID under Minnesota's "vouching" system
"Do we need ID?"
WORKER: "NOPE!" 🤯
HIGBY: "I have 7 other people who I live with."
And the worker says those people can be vouched for to, and "NO ID FOR ANY"
This man exposed a corrupt election system and their answer is to criminally charge him, despite NO BALLOTS BEING CAST in this case
Minnesota is becoming like a 3rd world nation. Its elections are corrupt and voters need to elect Republicans to make it stop!
It’s been 10 hours, I did some heavy builds but @cursor_ai agents called from my @bot crushed my usage. It was mostly building with @grok 4.7 high fast so I got clobbered. That’s ok though cause we’re building something awesome.
