The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

Anthropic statement:

We received the directive from the government today at 5:21pm (ET). The letter did not provide specific details of its national security concern. Our understanding is that the government believes it has become aware of a method of bypassing, or “jailbreaking” Fable 5. We reviewed a demonstration of this specific technique being used to identify a small number of previously known, minor vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities all appear relatively simple, and we have found that other publicly-available models are able to discover them as well without requiring a bypass.

Hey founders! 👋 Let's talk about something most SaaS teams get completely backwards — Domain Rating.

DR is NOT a success metric. It's a decision tool. 🎯 Yet so many teams obsess over hitting a specific number instead of using it to make smarter link-building choices.

Here's what DR can actually do for you ✅: 🔹 Compare your backlink profile strength against competitors 🔹 Spot whether your authority is growing in the right direction 🔹 Audit if your link acquisition quality is improving over time

And here's what it absolutely CANNOT do ❌: 🔸 Guarantee your pages will rank by a specific date 🔸 Promise traffic growth on a fixed timeline 🔸 Tell you if your link sources are relevant to your ICP

So what's the smart workflow? 📋

The best SaaS teams use a multi-signal scorecard — DR trend reviewed monthly, referring-domain relevance checked weekly, and commercial keyword movement tracked alongside qualified traffic. That combo connects authority signals to actual business outcomes. 💰

For early-stage SaaS, focus on building a consistent baseline trend and keeping sources relevant. Growth-stage teams should work on improving the quality mix. Mature products need to protect against profile drift.

One thing that trips up a LOT of teams is execution. They know what to measure but fall apart on consistent submissions and tracking. That's where a structured workflow like the one described in this practical DR checker guide for SaaS teams comes in — it breaks down exactly how to standardize submissions, classify sources by quality, and keep your reporting clean. 📊

Bottom line for founders: treat DR as one signal in a bigger system, never as the finish line. 🏁

I just launched Serena a productivity workspace that combines tasks, notes, calendar planning, time tracking, and AI in one place.

Website: https://withserena.ai

I built Serena because I was tired of constantly switching between different apps:

Tasks in one app

Notes in another

Calendar somewhere else

AI chats that don't remember what I'm working on

Serena brings everything together around your projects so planning, context, and execution stay connected.

Some of the features:

• Tasks & project management

• Notes and documentation

• Calendar planning

• Pomodoro & focus tracking

• AI chat that understands your tasks and notes

• Goal breakdown (describe a goal and Serena turns it into actionable tasks)

• Recommended next actions on your dashboard

• Daily planning emails

• Shared workspaces for teams

The main idea isn't just storing information. It's helping you decide what to work on next without losing context or jumping between tools all day. Based on your projects, tasks, and notes, the AI can provide more relevant assistance than a standalone chatbot.

I'd love feedback on:

Does this solve a real problem for you?

What feels missing?

How does it compare to tools like Notion, ClickUp, or Motion for your workflow?

Thanks for checking it out!
