Since so many people asked how I use Claude Code I might share a session. But I would need some ideas what small scale problem should be implemented. Give me some good ideas and I might do it.

Security Features

PostgreSQL 18 introduces oauth authentication, which lets users authenticate using OAuth 2.0 mechanisms supported through PostgreSQL extensions. Additionally, PostgreSQL 18 adds several features to validate and enforce FIPS mode behavior, and also adds the ssl_tls13_ciphers to let users configure which TLS v1.3 cipher suites the server can use.

This release deprecates md5 password authentication in favor of using SCRAM authentication that was first added in PostgreSQL 10. md5 authentication will be fully removed in a future major version release. Additionally, PostgreSQL 18 adds support for SCRAM passthrough authentication with both postgres_fdw and dblink when authenticating to remote PostgreSQL instances.

PostgreSQL, the open source database that continues to get better, is introducing oauth support. This should help with database automation and hopefully bring us one step closer to moving away from static credentials and copying usernames and passwords around. www.postgresql.org/about/news/p...

Mostly: "We are a small publisher, we received this manuscript for a sci-fi short story. We only publish top quality stuff, we don't want any garbage. Please tell us if this story is worth publishing in our high quality series". And identify when Claude is right, make changes 2/3 days. Retry.

The first step in my career was learning how to do things, but it took understanding why I was doing them for my career to take off. I went from completing tasks to asking why, then understanding the impact of my work, and eventually gained the ability to find the most impactful things to work on.

An SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle. It's quite abstract. The bicycle is two half circles and a simple frame. The pelican is sky blue with spread wings and a curved neck leading to a small head. It has definite pelican vibes.

qwq is a new openly licensed LLM from Alibaba Cloud's Qwen team. It's an attempt at the OpenAI o1 "reasoning" trick that runs on my Mac (20GB download) via Ollama... and it's pretty good!

Introduction - Model Context Protocol Get started with the Model Context Protocol (MCP)

Anthropic released an interesting thing today: an attempt at a standard protocol for LLM tools to talk to services that provide tools and extra context to be used other the models modelcontextprotocol.io
