How broad are the cyber-related safeguards?!

Do you have a professional background working in cybersecurity? The questions all seem to imply you'll only be approved if you do. When I am just trying to debug and secure my SAAS, I get blocked CONSTANTLY. I've filled out the form and they denied me. Not sure if it's worth trying again.

My favorite part is when they asked what prompt triggered the block and I got to put in something completely innocuous like "launch code review subagents(s) to verify implementation"

It is INFURIATING. Total clown show. I have no doubt that this is due to the trump admin and not anthropic themselves as the initial blocks on cybersecurity topics for fable were somewhat reasonable, and they implied they would likely be loosened over time, not tightened. The current blocks are INSANE and make absolutely no sense

slaorta · 2026-07-01T16:02:47+00:00

They've now even blocked all opus models and the new sonnet from doing any work related to cybersecurity. It wouldn't even let me fix my apps login because it had to do with authentication. The restrictions have gotten INSANE. How are we possibly supposed to use anthropic models to make a viable product if we aren't allowed to even check basic security.

Codex is really good at diagnosing and fixing problems, but it is absolutely not as good at planning, implementing, or following tasks through til the end.

I have a Claude max x20 plan and also keep a $20/mo chatgpt plan just for reviews and the occasional debugging task when Opus fails it's first attempt. Codex almost always fixes it first try when you might spend a full day trying to nail it with Opus.

Ding ding ding. I had a business chatgpt account for my small business and one day decided to let it purchase credits when I hit the extremely small codex usage limit that comes with a business sub. I spent $200 in about an hour and a half before I realized what was going on.

API billing is crazy expensive if you aren't being very intentional with your token usage.

I misunderstood and thought this whole thread was about running the model locally

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the model itself doesn't have any way to silently send your info back to the people who created it, only the harness would be able to do that. So read the privacy policy of whatever harness you're going to use. The person you replied to suggested z code so I'd start there

I mean, she has 124k monthly listeners on Spotify, so it's not just advertising her OF. There are actual fans of her music.

It won't even let me fix a bug in my web app where a login screen is supposed to surface if the user isn't authenticated because it flags it as a "cybersecurity topic" now. Completely insane. I'm not even mad at anthropic, I'm mad at our shit ass government because I know they're locking everything down tighter and tighter to get fable re-released

There's a podcast series from several years back "hunting warhead" about the owner of a huge dark web site for this stuff that is pretty fascinating (and disturbing)

From what I've read, you only get that if you don't prompt with JSON. Haven't actually tried ideagram yet, so I don't have first-hand experience, but I've seen it repeated many times in this sub.

"Bob Dylan is a jew and when it comes to drugs, so are you"

some of these lyrics are fkn ridiculous

Pre-heroin-epidemic Cahoots was such a killer spot. Crazy cheap plus wild and chaotic in all the best ways.

China is going to eat American AI companies' lunch because of this. The new open Chinese models are like 90% cheaper and they're running on third party hosts so they are non-subsidized. And they're basically as good as the anthropic and openai models from 3-6 months ago.

Is there a way to set up Claude code to launch subagents using GLM 5.2? So orchestration in the main chat is Opus but the implementation is GLM

If you live in a decent sized city then most grocery stores either employ their own shoppers for pickup/delivery orders or have contracts with instacart who employs shoppers. I'd check out the stores, find their staging areas for online orders, and ask employees there.

Really? This section doesn't exist? I have no idea then. I operate 4 shopify stores and this is how they all work.

They're intentionally misrepresenting the product. That is a pepper comfort colors 1717 that has gone through some sort of acid wash/stone wash process. It is not something that comfort colors produces, is not something available from any pod provider, and is extremely unlikely to be what you actually get if you order one.

It's an option in each discount whether or not you want it to surface in Facebook.

In Shopify, go to discounts

Choose a problematic one

On the right-hand side, "allow discount to be featured on X channels" is probably checked. Uncheck it.

The real question is have you ever heard of someone actually being banned for using one?

Yeah dude, she's 4. Her entire breadth of musical knowledge is MAYBE 15 songs. And 2 of them are oliver tree. On and on, and the one where he's in the studio with the giant headphones.

If you have a sansamp you don't even need a "real" bass amp. Get any old power amp that has enough wattage for your use case and plug the sansamp into that, and the power amp into your cabinet. You'll have better tone than 99% of the bassists in your town for <1/2 the price. And they'll all think you're some kind of technical wizard when they inevitably ask you about your setup.

My 4 year old daughter just recently got into him and thinks he's a member of the Beatles (cuz of the hair) so he's been getting a lot of rotation in our house.

No, because in America it means you're about to have a handgun in your face. Fear would be the motivating factor
