Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.

BREAKING: DC Circuit, on a 2-1 vote, keeps in place a lower court order blocking DHS Sec. Noem’s effort to end Haiti temporary protected status designation.

Judges Pan and Garcia deny DOJ’s request to stay the district court order. Judge Walker would have granted it.

Haiti TPS is safe for now.

If you took $1 billion and gave it to the endowment of a different small college each day, they could each provide a free college education to several hundred students per year in perpetuity. Instead we are using that money to bomb schools and kill students in Iran, for no clearly stated purpose.

Electrification of transportation is a national security and economic resilience strategy, which would work well for this exact scenario we are in right now.

You're absolutely rightβ€”that was not a command post, that was an elementary school. Those were not military leadersβ€”they were schoolchildren. I said the opposite, and that's on me.

WASHINGTON (AP) β€” White House says Spain has agreed to cooperate with US operations in Mideast after Trump threatened financial penalties.

MADRID (AP) β€” Spain's government denies cooperation with US operations in the Middle East, contradicting White House.

The thing that MOQT offers over WebSocket or gRPC is that it is point-to-multipoint (vs. point-to-point). It basically lets you outsource the fanout of one firehose to many consumers from the smart PDS to a relay that only cares about moving data.

If the rumours are true and the kids and social media consultation opens today, here are two things I think should be banned from
social media:

1) AI bots
2) recommendations algorithms that optimise for time on site

Firm regulation of both of these things is possible and auditable

The US is really giving the game away by assassinating Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who literally has not held political power since 2013.

Assassinating a former president has nothing to do with security, safety, nukes or missiles. You're literally just killing some guy at that point as a "fuck you."

I direct my anger at everyone who is incapable of taking a principled moral stance, and doubly so for those who have power, and triply for those who have power and claim a moral superiority and yet never state their moral opposition to immoral acts.
