Polling: Americans Uncertain On RFK Jr.’s Vaccine Stance, Very Certain That They Hate Him
In my many, many posts about RFK Jr. and his disastrous tenure as Secretary of HHS, there are two themes that have hopefully broken through all the noise. The first is that Kennedy is a miserable communicator, in a way that is totally purposeful. He talks out of both sides of his mouth all the […]Reply source -
Anthropic asks users to stop being mean to Claude
submitted by Powderhorn to technologyReply source
55 points | 25 comments
https://www.theregister.com/ai-and-ml/2026/10/09/anthropic-asks-users-to-stop-being-mean-to-claude/5302218Anthropic has updated its rules to stop people being mean to Claude, apparently deciding that its AI chatbot needs protection from the humans paying to use it.
The AI developer’s latest usage policy prohibits “sustained and needless abusive or cruel behavior” toward its models. The rules take effect November 12, giving users just over a month to get any lingering insults out of their systems.
“The policy update is meant to apply only in extreme cases, where users repeatedly act cruelly toward our models, with no discernible purpose,” Anthropic said. “It does not apply to common versions of user frustration, pushback, dark creative themes, or model testing and research.”
So you can still tell Claude it is wrong, but repeatedly berating it for the sheer pleasure of doing so could land you in trouble. It’s not clear how Anthropic intends to distinguish between legitimate frustration and gratuitous cruelty, though it says Claude’s existing ability to end abusive conversations will remain its primary enforcement tool.
Anthropic gave Claude the ability to end certain conversations back in August 2025 as part of its research into what it calls “model welfare.” The feature lets some versions of Claude cut off users who persistently subject the models to abuse.

📝 0047ea8 — fix(preset-eleventy): write posts where the advertised URL resolves
Reply sourceCommit sur main · 0047ea8 · @rmdes
getPostTypesput the date in the filename but advertised it as path segments: path:${collection}/{yyyy}-{MM}-{dd}-{slug}.mdurl:${collection}/{yyyy}/{MM}/{dd}/{slug}Eleventy derives a page’s URL from its input path and makes no such translation, so the URL returned in theLocationheader and shown as “Post will be created at …” does not resolve. The file is written correctly and the request succeeds, so nothing surfaces it. Write the date as directories instead, so the path Eleventy serves is the URL Indiekit reported. Theurltemplate is unchanged, so the URL scheme itself does not move. Verified against Eleventy 3:content/notes/2026/08/22/hello.mdbuilds to_site/notes/2026/08/22/hello/index.html. Refs #902 -

📝 0e900a7 — fix(endpoint-auth): use publication me when signing authorization code
Reply sourceCommit sur main · 0e900a7 · @aciccarello
Previously, the me value supplied by the client in the authorization request was signed directly into the authorization code. If that value differed from publication.me (e.g. a redirect URL), the issued token would fail verification at query time. Per the IndieAuth spec (sections 5.2, 5.3.2, 5.3.3), the authorization server may ignore the client-supplied me and return its own canonical profile URL. publication.me is now always used when signing the code. The client-supplied me is still echoed back in the redirect response for backwards compatibility. Fixes #911
