Strangely enough, my first test with Sonnet 4.6 via the API for a relatively simple request was more expensive ($0.11) than my average request to Opus 4.6 (~$0.07), because it used way more tokens than what I would consider necessary for the prompt.
This is an interesting trend with recent models. The smarter ones get away with a lot less thinking tokens, partially to fully negating the speed/price advantage of the smaller models.
The FBI was investigating the daycare fraud in February 2025. Unfortunately, some of the investigators got moved off this investigation to do anti-immigration work instead, reported by NYT last week.
The right complains that "fascist" gets thrown around on by the left so much the terms loses meaning, but soon you'll be able to say the same about "domestic terrorist".
This has been a tough nut to crack, conversationally. My strategy lately has been to flip tue script: Do you think Fascism is bad? How do you define it? What would Trump need to do for you to consider him a fascist.
Its interesting to see at what point and how people try to wiggle out. Its a fun one because common counters of eg "Biden is a communist" are so easy to disassemble, ie im happy to define communist, agree it would be bad, agree we should fight against it, provide specific examples of things Biden could do to fit a communist description, etc.
It helps so far to help the right at least admit to their biased world view. not change it, but at least sort of see it.

ok i didn't think about this, that's an underrated benefit
It doesn't. You might be thinking of libraries that you wrote, not packages from e.g. npm, which are distributed as JavaScript + type definition files not as TypeScript code.
In real IDEs, not glorified text editors like VSCode, it does. I use this often in IDEA, it's muscle memory so I'm not even completely sure what to press, but it's likely "go to definition" and by default is tied to ctrl+alt+b.
IDEA adds its own analysis on top of that provided by the language server.
Works on JS + every variant of type definitions I've ever seen, among many other things (not only programming languages, but also database objects, etc).
> IDEA adds its own analysis on top of that provided by the language server.
IDEA implements its own analysis and doesn't use tsserver at all. Its semantics diverge in subtle ways, I believe in both directions (some code that tsserver considers valid IDEA will consider invalid and vice versa).
assuming they were able to acquire customers and dominate the world with that business model, would that have prevented them from doing algorithmic feeds and promoting clickbait and poisoning politics and the rest?
sure, people would have been able to cancel their monthly facebook subscriptions if they didn't like that stuff. but we can effectively do that now just by not using it.
So if you don't want to pay the significant premium for Opus, it seems like you can just wait a few weeks till Sonnet catches up
