Sonnet 4.5 being decommissioned

I don't know if this has been mentioned already and sorry if it has but I haven't used Claude in a while and I just found out today that Sonnet 4.5 is going to be thrown out today (15 May). For my creative work at least (aside from coding), Sonnet 4.5 was a really fire model. Sad me😫

Need help: Claude account disabled during work

My Claude account was disabled after an automatic review while I was actively working. This happened unexpectedly and interrupted my workflow. I’m looking for the correct appeal path and any advice from people who have successfully recovered access. Would appreciate any guidance.

I turned 50 popular apps into Claude-readable design specs. Here's what actually makes Claude nail a UI clone.

Over the last few weeks I reverse-engineered 50 popular apps into structured markdown design specs and fed them to Claude to rebuild the UIs. Some clones came out near-perfect, others drifted. The difference came down to a few things that aren't obvious until you do it at volume. What made Claude nail it: \- Exact values, not ranges. "#1A1A1A" works. "dark gray" produces five different grays across five screens. \- State coverage up front. Listing every state (empty, loading, error, filled) stopped Claude from inventing its own. \- Spacing as a scale, not per-element pixels. A 4/8/16/24 s...

I built the smart speaker we always wanted

I wanted to see if Claude can handle Vibe Hardware Engineering to help me make a smart speaker. Turns out, it can! I call it boxBot. It helped select the hardware set, raspberry pi, Hailo , respeaker mic, pi camera, waveshare screen and speakers. Helped me calculate thermal loads and dissipation rates for a passive cooling setup. I made the box by hand out of walnut. The agent inside is custom as well. You could probably throw openclaw on it and call it a day but I wanted to craft something that was tightly coupled with the hardware more secured considering it’s sitting in my living room ...

OpenAI’s Codex is now in the ChatGPT mobile app

OpenAI is going to let users access Codex, its desktop AI tool that can write code and use apps on your computer, from the ChatGPT app on your phone. Following the surge in popularity for Anthropic's Claude Code, OpenAI has been working quickly to try and catch up, including by cutting back on "side quests," shutting down projects like the Sora video-generation tool, and focusing on growing its enterprise business. The company's push included the recently released major update for Codex that lets it operate apps on macOS - a potentially major step as part of its ambitions to make a desktop "s...

Microsoft starts canceling Claude Code licenses

Microsoft first started opening up access to Claude Code in December, inviting thousands of its own developers to use Anthropic's AI coding tool daily. It was part of an effort to get project managers, designers, and other employees to experiment with coding for the first time, and sources tell me that Claude Code has proved very popular inside Microsoft over the past six months. Perhaps a little too popular, as Microsoft is now preparing to walk back its Claude Code push. I understand that Microsoft is planning to remove most of its Claude Code licenses and push many of its developers to use...

I used Claude to make a free app/site that lets you see the statistical divide between Americans per state and all the relevant details on elected officials (who they're funded by, bills they voted on.. etc)

There's alot more than what i mentioned, and alot more to add, but figured i'd share as it's currently a work in progress and could help educate people and make it an easy source to get this type of information... Link: [Culture Wars — the data behind America's divides](https://culture-wars.vercel.app/) [culture-wars.vercel.app](http://culture-wars.vercel.app/) yes, it's currently a vercel app haha.... both links work. There's alot of information in here and i'm open if anyone has any suggestion's or criticisms on what to add to it. I tried to keep it as objective, fact based, and neutral...
