The moral of the missing Fable
An Argument for the EU’s Digital Sovereignty On 9 June 2026, Anthropic introduced Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5. Three days later, Anthropic announced that it would suspend access after receiving a U.S. government directive restricting the models’ availability to foreign nationals.

Introduction to prompting
Last updated: 25.3.2026. Preface “Prompting” (communicating with a computer using natural language) is a change in the way people do computing that is equivalent to the introduction of the computer mouse into the everyday life of a PC user.

Military AI
US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth wants AI that has no built-in constraints, and that is not surprising at all. War and humanism aren’t homies.

For a keycap more: SayoDevice OSU O3C
My trusty old G613 keyboard started showing signs of age, multiplying or omitting keystrokes. It’ still not a big issue, I don’t mind occasional extra “e” but it does annoy me when copy paste combination replaces the content in a way I can’t undo. So I bought this nice little keyboardling.

Unrestrained child
Do you believe that AI is going to hurt us? Should it be closely monitored and its performance checked and corrected if necessary? Or should we let it evolve with little to no supervision. What could possibly go wrong? An executive order It turns out that US President Trump has signed an executive order revoking…
