Dead Poets Society is less of a film and more of an urgent wake-up call: logic and duty keep you functioning, but art and passion are why you stay alive. Don't forget to contribute your verse.

For centuries, the residents of Matmata, Tunisia 🇹🇳 have lived underground—carving full homes and connecting tunnels straight out of massive sunken pits.

From simulation to physical reality in real time.

Watching Hugging Face's Microducks execute complex motor controls like a somersault, powered by AI agents on NVIDIA RTX Spark, isn't just a great stage moment; it’s a masterclass in modern sim to real reinforcement learning.

The friction between digital training environments and physical deployment is vanishing. When autonomous agents can synthesize physical dynamics this seamlessly, the timeline for edge robotics accelerates dramatically.#NVIDIA #Robotics #HuggingFace #SimToReal #ArtificialIntelligence #TechInnovation

A mother in Bihar, India threw herself over her two kids on a railway track at Shahpur Patori station as a train passed directly above them. She took the injuries herself so both children and two accompanying women could walk away alive.

@MadsTheTrader Media sees French people mad about their own government and immediately goes “must be the foreigners.” Peak pattern recognition failure.

Watching Western media react to this Fox News clip like it’s a new revelation. He said this exact same thing months ago. It’s the standard cycle: float a frozen border to appease Western donors, collect the check, then revert right back to maximalist victory speeches.

NEW: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy tells @kilmeade he would accept a peace deal that freezes the war along the current frontlines, calling it a realistic way to stop the fighting.

He says Ukraine would then seek security guarantees from President Trump and European allies to ensure peace and security.

"We call it ceasefire or stop killing like President Trump called it. Freeze and stop. And of course this is minimum what we need from Russia today." | @foxandfriends

@JamesLucasIT The elite class always sells out its own people. While the political class fled and made deals, regular citizens got left watching an foreign army parade down the Champs-Élysées. Same script, different era.

@historyinmemes Mass murder and extortion were fine, but stiffing the IRS was an actual war crime. The state only hunts you down when you forget to pay their cut.

In October 1931, federal prosecutors finally brought down notorious Chicago mob boss Al Capone, not through murder or bootlegging charges, but by securing his conviction on five counts of federal income tax evasion. The verdict marked the beginning of the end of his powerful criminal empire during the Prohibition era.

Unable to convict Capone for many of his alleged violent crimes, federal investigators instead focused on his hidden income and unpaid taxes. He was ultimately sentenced to 11 years in federal prison and ordered to pay substantial fines and back taxes. The historic case demonstrated how financial investigations could be used to prosecute powerful organized crime figures, transforming the way American law enforcement pursued criminal empires.
