Twilio UK Phone Numbers: “Bundle status is not twilio-approved” Error (21649)

Summary A Django SaaS application failed to provision UK phone numbers during customer onboarding due to regulatory compliance workflows. The core issue was attempting to provision numbers immediately after creating a regulatory bundle, ignoring the mandatory manual review period enforced by Twilio’s carrier partners. The error Error 21649: Bundle [BUxxx] status is not twilio-approved explicitly … Read more

I am having trouble training a SetFit model using a variety of embedding models and logistic regression

Summary The issue at hand is low accuracy in training a SetFit model using various embedding models and logistic regression. Despite attempts to adjust parameters such as epochs, iterations, and learning rate, the model consistently outputs the same label for all inputs, suggesting overfitting or collapsing of the embedding model. Root Cause The root cause … Read more

Are compilers allowed to merge nested virtual calls inside a “final” class?

Summary The issue described is that even when a class is declared final, compilers like Clang and GCC often do not merge nested virtual calls into a single direct call. In the provided example, Base::Call invokes DerivedStatic::Call, which in turn invokes UserStatic::CallTyped. Despite UserStatic being final, compilers fail to eliminate the intermediate virtual dispatch. The … Read more

Any way to restart Claude Code without losing the context?

Summary An operator attempted to upload a 13.5 MB image to a Claude Code session, which triggered a persistent API error loop. The input exceeded the API’s strict 5 MB payload limit. Because the client session retained the invalid request in its context window, every subsequent interaction—regardless of the new prompt—replayed the full error history, … Read more

Implicit surface mesh creation using Meshes.jl

Summary The core issue is not a lack of capability in Meshes.jl, but a misunderstanding of the mathematical topology of the implicit surface defined by $f(u,v)$. The equation $w = \pm \sqrt{1 – v^2 – (u – v^2)^2}$ describes a surface with a pinch point singularity (specifically, a “pinched torus” or “self-intersecting” topology). It is … Read more

How to apply effects to audio that is streamed via Apple Music

Summary When engineers face DRM-restricted audio streams from Apple Music via MusicKit, they encounter a fundamental limitation: no direct audio URL access for AVFoundation manipulation. This prevents applying real-time effects like pitch shifting and reverb through traditional pipeline approaches. The workaround involves intercepting system audio output through privacy-compliant screen recording capture rather than direct stream … Read more
