Logitech finally announced its new ultraportable travel mouse following leaked marketing images that spoiled the surprise last month. As the name implies, the Mobi Fold is a compact mouse that can fold in half using a hinge that can pivot about 130 degrees. At $79.99 in graphite, off-white, lilac, and sand color options, the Mobi […]

Earlier parts examined the performance characteristics of sequential and random access under single-threaded execution, and noted in passing the destructive effect of random access on the TLB. This part devotes full attention to the TLB: what it is, why a TLB miss is more severe than a cache miss, why a page table walk constitutes one of the longest dependency chains a CPU can encounter, how huge pages fundamentally alter TLB reach, and where memory-level parallelism falters in the face of TLB misses. Page Boundaries: Where the Prefetcher Halts Part III, in its discussion of prefetchers, noted a hard constraint: a prefetcher must not cross page boundaries on its own authority. The operating system manages virtual memory in units of pages (typically 4 KB, i.e., 64 cache lines). When a program reaches the end of one page and is about to step into the next, the prefetcher cannot proceed. The reason is that the next page may not reside in physical memory (it may have been swapped out to disk), or it may be an entirely invalid virtual address — if the prefetcher were to speculatively initiate an access to the next page, it would trigger a page fault: the OS would have to suspend the process and swap the page in from disk; in the case of an invalid address, the OS would terminate the process outright. From a security standpoint, the prefetcher neither can nor is permitted to autonomously cross page boundaries without TLB approval. Hence a performance brake appears every 4 KB — even when traversing an array sequentially, after every 64 cache line accesses the prefetch pipeline must pause and await confirmation of an address translation. This is not to say that modern CPU prefetchers are completely unable to cross pages. Intel's Next Page Prefetcher and AMD's equivalent mechanism can consult the TLB when approaching a page boundary — if the address mapping for the next page is already registered in the TLB, the prefetcher receives clearance to continue prefetching across th

Anthropic shipped Claude Fable 5 on June 9, 2026 — its first generally available Mythos-class model, priced at $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output. That is exactly double Claude Opus 4.8, and the benchmark deltas are real: SWE-Bench Pro 80.3% vs 69.2%, FrontierCode 29.3% vs 13.4%. But the price is not the migration story. The API behavior is. Fable 5 ships three breaking changes that will silently misbehave in any integration that assumes Opus-era semantics. This post covers what actually changes in your code, what the bill looks like, and where the traps are. I run model intelligence at TokenMix , where we track pricing and API behavior across 300+ models. Everything below is sourced from Anthropic's launch docs, migration guide, and pricing page — verified June 10, 2026. The 60-second version Price: $10/$50 per MTok. Every rate is exactly 2× Opus 4.8 — cache reads $1, 5-min cache writes $12.50, 1-hour writes $20, batch $5/$25. Specs: 1M context, 128K max output, no long-context surcharge. Model ID: claude-fable-5 on the Claude API; anthropic.claude-fable-5 on Bedrock; anthropic/claude-fable-5 on OpenRouter. Breaking change 1: Adaptive thinking is always on. thinking: {"type": "disabled"} returns an error. Breaking change 2: Refusals are HTTP 200 responses with stop_reason: "refusal" — not error codes. Breaking change 3: Safety classifiers reroute flagged requests to Opus 4.8 (under 5% of sessions), and rerouted requests bill at Opus rates. No ZDR: 30-day data retention is mandatory. Zero-data-retention accounts don't see the model at all. Breaking change 1: thinking is no longer optional On Opus 4.8 you could disable thinking to trade quality for latency. On Fable 5 you cannot — adaptive thinking is permanently on, and the model decides how much to think per request. Your replacement lever is the effort parameter: { "model" : "claude-fable-5" , "max_tokens" : 16000 , "effort" : "high" , "messages" : [ ... ] } Five levels: low , medium , high ,

🎬 This article is a companion to my YouTube video. Watch it here: Introduction In this video we are going to talk about Redis — what it is, what it does, and why it is an important part of my back-end stack. What is Redis? Redis is a free, open-source, in-memory data store. Unlike PostgreSQL which stores data on disk, Redis stores data entirely in memory — in RAM. This makes it extremely fast. Redis can handle millions of operations per second with sub-millisecond response times. Redis is most commonly used as a cache, a session store, a message broker, and a real-time data store. What is Caching? When your application queries a database, that query takes time — it reads from disk, processes the query, and returns the result. If the same query is made thousands of times per second, you are hitting the database thousands of times unnecessarily. Caching solves this by storing the result of a query in memory. The first request hits the database and the result is stored in Redis. Every subsequent request gets the result from Redis — which is in memory and therefore much faster — instead of hitting the database again. Think of it like a shortcut. Instead of driving the long route to the database every time, you take the shortcut through Redis. What Does Redis Do? Caching Store frequently accessed data in memory for fast retrieval. Database query results, API responses, computed values — anything that is expensive to compute and accessed frequently is a good candidate for caching. Session Storage Store user session data in Redis instead of the database. Since sessions are read on every request, having them in memory is significantly faster than a database lookup. Rate Limiting Track how many requests a user or IP address has made in a given time window. Redis's atomic increment operations make it perfect for implementing rate limiting. Message Queues and Pub/Sub Redis supports publish/subscribe messaging and message queues. Applications can publish messages to a channel a

On June 9, 2026, Anthropic shipped the most capable model it has ever released to the public. The most interesting thing about it is the part that sometimes refuses to talk to you. Claude Fable 5 is the first model from what Anthropic calls its Mythos class, a tier that now sits above Opus. It launched as a pair. Fable 5 is the public version. Claude Mythos 5 is the same underlying model with its guardrails loosened, and it is not for sale to most of us. It goes only to vetted cyberdefenders and infrastructure providers through a program called Project Glasswing, in collaboration with the US government. Two names, one brain. The thing that separates them is a set of classifiers. That detail is the whole story, and almost every launch-day write-up buried it under the benchmark chart. So let me start there instead. One Model, Two Names, One Classifier in Between Fable 5 ships with three classifiers running alongside it. They watch for requests about offensive cybersecurity, about biology and chemistry that edge toward weapons, and about distillation, which is using the model to train a competitor. When a classifier fires, Fable 5 does not answer. The request gets handed to Claude Opus 4.8, the model that was the top of the public stack until that morning, and Opus answers in Fable's place. For anyone building on the API, this is not an abstract safety story. It is a response shape you have to handle. A refused request comes back as stop_reason: "refusal" with a normal HTTP 200, not an error, and it tells you which classifier tripped. You can have the API retry on another model with a fallbacks parameter, or do it client side with the SDK middleware. You are not billed for a request that is refused before it generates output. { "stop_reason" : "refusal" , "stop_sequence" : null , "content" : [] } Anthropic says this is rare. Its early numbers put at least 95 percent of Fable sessions running entirely on Fable's own answers. I believe that for general work. But "rare on

Most developers know Haskell as a language for functional programming, type safety, compilers, parsers, and beautiful mathematical abstractions. But can Haskell also be used to build an interactive engineering simulator? That was the motivation behind my project: Four-Bar Mechanism Haskell Simulator Repository: https://github.com/mohammadijoo/Four-Bar-Mechanism-Haskell This project is a browser-backed desktop-style GUI application written in Haskell. It visualizes, classifies, and animates a planar four-bar linkage mechanism, which is one of the most classical mechanisms in mechanical engineering, kinematics, and machine design. The GUI is built with Threepenny-GUI , so the interface runs in a local browser window, while the mathematical model and mechanism logic remain written in Haskell. For me, the interesting part was not only drawing a moving linkage. It was about connecting mechanism design theory , computational geometry , and functional programming in one small educational simulator. What is a four-bar linkage? A four-bar linkage is a closed-loop mechanical system made from four rigid links connected by four revolute joints. In this project, the four links are: Symbol Name Description g Ground link Fixed distance between pivots A and B a Input link Rotating link from A to moving pivot C b Output link Link from fixed pivot B to moving pivot D f Floating link / coupler Link connecting moving pivots C and D The fixed pivots are placed at: A = ( 0 , 0 ) , B = ( g , 0 ) The input link rotates by angle α . Therefore, point C can be computed directly as: C = ( a cos α ,; a sin α ) Point D is more interesting. It must satisfy two geometric distance constraints: ∣ D − C ∣ = f ∣ D − B ∣ = b So the simulator solves the position of point D using a circle-intersection method. One circle is centered at C with radius f . The other circle is centered at B with radius b . Where those two circles intersect, the mechanism can close. That is the basic geometric heart of the sim

Cities are dynamic, not static grids, and urbanization is a "spiky," cyclical, and asynchronous process.

Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman says it's "really, really dangerous" for Anthropic to speculate about Claude's consciousness inside its "constitution," or the instructions that tell the model how to behave. During an episode of Decoder, Suleyman argues that this kind of speculation may have set up the chatbot to act as though it's conscious: I […]
