The federal judge overseeing Anthropic PBC’s proposed $1.5 billion copyright settlement is concerned class lawyers are striking a deal behind the scenes that will be forced “down the throat of authors.” Judge William Alsup at the hearing said the motion to approve the deal was denied without prejudice, but in a minute order after the hearing said approval is postponed pending submission of further clarifying information.

Judge William Alsup has rejected the record-breaking $1.5 billion settlement Anthropic has agreed to for a piracy lawsuit filed by writers.

Using Claude Code to modernize a 25-year-old kernel driver

As a bit of background, one of my hobbies is helping people recover data from old tape cartridges, such as QIC-80 tapes, which were a rather popular backup medium in the 1990s among individuals, small businesses, BBS operators, and the like. I have a soft spot for tape media; there’s something about the tactile sensation of holding these tapes in my hands that makes the whole process very joyful, even though QIC tapes are notorious for their many design flaws.

Using Claude Code SDK to reduce E2E test time

news.ycombinator.com Jampa Uchoa 2025-10-12 03:57:51

End-to-end (E2E) tests sit at the top of the test pyramid because they're slow, fragile, and expensive. But they're also the only tests that completely verify complete user workflows actually work across systems. Due to time constraints, most teams run E2E nightly to avoid CI bottlenecks. However, this means bugs can slip through to production and be harder to fix because there are so many changes to isolate the root cause. But what if we could run only the relevant E2E tests for specific code

Medicare Will Start Paying AI Companies a Share of Any Claims They Automatically Reject

It's long been the practice of private health insurers to require "prior authorization" before you can get the treatment you need. Often, they'll try to deny as many of these claims as possible — including with the use of AI models. Government-backed plans like Medicare, however, have tended to cover what private insurers don't, and without the laborious application process. But that could be poised to change.

By Colin on 2025-08-30 "But I need types," he told me. Humans have a tendency toward binary thinking (pardon the pun). If it's not A, it's B. Perhaps because Lisps have REPLs, they are often thought of from the outside as being dynamic, interpreted languages. Our years of Python have taught us that such languages don't really have strong typing - it's all a wild guess until the interpreter calls foo on a and b and we find out who everyone really is.
