Anthropic's Claude Passes ChatGPT, Now #1, on Apple's 'Top Apps' Chart After Pentagon Controversy

"Anthropic may have lost out on doing business with the US government," reports Engadget, "but it's gained enough popularity to earn the number one spot on the App Store's Top Free Apps leaderboard."


Anthropic's Claude AI assistant had already leaped to the #2 slot on Apple's chart by late Friday," CNBC reported Saturday:


The rise in popularity suggests that Anthropic is benefiting from its presence in news headlines, stemming from its refusal to have its models used for mass domestic surveillance or f

The person in your life who never panics, never raises their voice, and always has a plan isn’t naturally calm. They’re running an entire operating system that was built in a house where someone else’s instability was the weather, and calm was the only thing that kept the roof on.

The person who never panics didn't win the temperament lottery. They built an entire operating system in a childhood where someone else's instability was the weather, and their calm was the only thing keeping everything from falling apart. Read more

Как быстро встроить MAX в свои системы

MAX в России постепенно превращается не просто в «ещё один мессенджер», а в канал, который всё чаще рассматривают как рабочую точку контакта с пользователем: для уведомлений, сервисных сообщений, внутренних ботов и групповых сценариев. И как только компания доходит до реальной интеграции, почти всегда начинается знакомая история: сначала один скрипт на отправку уведомлений, потом второй на обработку входящих сообщений, потом отдельная логика для групп, потом ещё пара «временных» костылей. Через месяц... Read more

I grew up being told I was too sensitive and I spent the next twenty-five years building an entire personality around not reacting. Now I’m the person everyone calls steady and nobody calls close, and I can trace the distance in every relationship I have back to a single word a teacher used when I was nine.

The most emotionally stable people you know may have built that composure from childhood suppression, not wisdom. When a single label at age nine teaches a child their feelings are wrong, the next 25 years become a construction project that earns admiration but costs intimacy. Read more

Коммуникации с пациентами в 2026 году: полный крах привычных каналов и новая архитектура взаимодействия

Еще пару лет назад казалось, что формула успеха проста: WhatsApp Business для рассылок, Telegram для срочных уведомлений и немного email для галочки. Но к 2026 году рынок медицинских коммуникаций в России вошел в фазу идеального шторма. Мессенджеры один за другим уходят в зону нестабильности или блокировок, регуляторы требуют не просто согласий, а их безупречного юридического оформления, а пациенты, уставшие от вала спама, научились мгновенно блокировать любые каналы, вызывающие малейший дискомфорт.Мы...

Weekly poll results: the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro is the fan favorite, while the (4a) takes a step back

Last year, the Nothing Phone (3a) was voted as having a better value than its (3a) Pro sibling, while people that might have bought the Pro were instead pulled towards the then-upcoming Nothing Phone (3) flagship. So, when we posted last week’s poll, we were sure that the (4a) would prevail over its Pro sibling. After all, the Nothing Phone (4a) closed the camera gap to the Pro. But look... Read more

A new study reveals that farming in Argentina’s Uspallata Valley was adopted by local hunter-gatherers rather than introduced by outside populations. Centuries later, a stressed group of maize-heavy farmers migrated into the region, facing climate instability, disease, and declining numbers. Despite these pressures, there’s no sign of violence—instead, families stayed connected across generations, using kinship networks to survive. The research shows how cooperation, not conflict, helped communities navigat Read more
