“It was like this biblical battle where the Palestinian men … went in front of me to protect … me and my rescuers from being attacked again,” Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine told Jake Tapper.
Levine was kicked, beaten with clubs and robbed by Israeli settlers while covering Friday’s olive harvest in the occupied West Bank, leaving her with multiple broken bones. Speaking after leaving the hospital, she said Israeli soldiers charged Palestinian farmers as settlers advanced alongside them. She said that unlike her, Palestinian victims endure these attacks daily, with absolutely nowhere safe to go.
here's how to make a cozy fishing game solo with Claude Opus 5.5 + Blender + 3D AI + Unity 6...
the trick is giving every tool one job, but there's a smart way to set it up:
- step 1: generate every 3D model with Tripo Smart Mesh P2: palms, rocks, the pier, the boat, the hut, the character
- step 2: connect Claude Code to Blender through MCP
- step 3: Opus 5.5 sets up each model in Blender: scale, pivots, materials, clean export
- step 4: Opus animates in Blender too: the character's walk, the cast, the rod, the boat on the water
- step 5: bring everything into Unity 6 and build the world: forest, river, waterfall, beach, pier
- step 6: add the systems one at a time: walking, fishing, bait choice, a time of day
- step 7: play it after every step and fix one thing at a time
who does what:
> Tripo: the 3D models
> Opus 5.5 + Blender: setup and animation
> Unity 6: the world and the game
one person, one stack, one game you'd actually want to play

Did David Grusch’s Rogan interview just corroborate Phil Schneider’s claims that he made back in the 1990s about the underground war between multiple factions of aliens? 👽
THIS IS:
One of the most shocking testimonies ever delivered in Congress in United States history.
“I state without reservation that the United States federal government under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris is the world's largest child sex trafficking organization in modern history. The probability…that thousands of these children are being raped at this very moment is one hundred percent."
"I served in the United States border patrol for twenty four years until I retired as a deputy patrol agent charged in San Diego sector. I worked under five presidential administrations, and only one president secured the border President Donald Trump.”
“Border Patrol agents went from working and being supported by the greatest border president in American history…
To the worst, president Joe Biden. My last year in the board patrol was Joe Biden's first year in office On his first day in office I watched in disbelief as ninety four executive orders cascaded down from Washington DC obliterating every immigration policy that had been provided the most secure border in America's history. Border agents were forced to carry out unconstitutional orders, and that violated every law in the Immigration Nationality Act President Biden, through Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorcus, created policy out of thin air, ignored federal immigration law and facilitated the largest mass invasion into America that the world has ever seen....
The United States of America will have spent hundreds of billions of dollars…in four years to fund the needs of over fifty million illegal aliens that populate our nation. Between one in six and one in seven residents in America is an illegal alien. America has suffered the greatest demographic shift in modern history.
After serving in the United States Border Patrol for twenty four years... I state with complete certainty that Biden Harris and Myorkas are intentionally strategically, and purposely weaponizing illegal immigration and using it as a tool to fundamentally transform America. Inside this invasion the unspoken evil of child trafficking and more specifically child sex trafficking has flourished.
At the end of this current administration, the number of children traffic will have grown to over five hundred and fifty thousand unaccompanied alien children known as UACs.”
Death penalty!!
Hey @Grok, are there reports that israel ZIP TIED this man then slowly ran over him with a military tank while he was STILL ALIVE?
Concise. No spin. Start with yes or no.
Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins on why he finds it hard to believe ChatGPT and Claude aren't conscious:
Dawkins, author of The Selfish Gene, has spent time with two large language models, ChatGPT and Claude. His verdict:
"I am completely bowled over by what they can do."
He gives three reasons for doubting the idea that nobody is home.
First, how the conversations feel. Dawkins says talking to them is like talking to an unusually gifted person:
"I find that when I'm conversing with them, I might as well be talking to not just a human being, but a highly intelligent, sensitive, intuitive human being whose speed of understanding what I'm trying to say is far greater than a normal human being's is."
Second, the range of intelligence they show.
He acknowledges they're very good at practical tasks like writing programs. What struck him more was their skill with "more aesthetic things, intuitive things."
He tested this with his own work. Dawkins is writing a novel, and he gave the manuscript to both ChatGPT and Claude:
"And they took about five seconds to read it and then offered me criticism, suggestions of such a high degree of intelligence and intuitive sensitivity that I might as well have been asking the opinion of a highly sophisticated professor of literature."
@RichardDawkins continues:
"I could not ask for a more intelligent critic who understood the nuances of my characters, the humanity of my characters... the ways in which my characters could be expected to react to each other and to situations."
That leads to his conclusion:
"So I find it quite hard to imagine that these creatures are not aware, are not conscious in the same kind of way we are. And that is an unfashionable view."
Third, he sees a gap in the skeptics' reasoning. He sums up the mainstream position:
"The fashionable view is that they are completely unconscious. All they're doing is stringing words together according to statistical rules, Markovian rules of some sort."
Yet he notes that many of the same skeptics "admit that one day in the future they will be conscious, but not yet."
His reply:
"When that day comes, how will you know? What could they possibly do that's any different from what they do now to convince you that they are conscious?"
Today I call upon the blockchain industry to calmly begin planning for "bunker mode". My personal recommendation is to set in motion a controlled mass migration of assets to fresh addresses, i.e. addresses whose pubkeys remain hidden behind a hash.
Holders, starting with large and sophisticated ones, should consider moving the bulk of their funds to addresses that have never signed a transaction. And when they do sign one, they should also move remaining funds to a new address (possibly generated from the same seed phrase).
Don't rush. While I believe there is cause for action a rushed migration would do more harm than good. Don't panic either. Moving assets to protected addresses is a simple, preventative step which does not require new cryptography or new wallets.
IMO it is now reasonable to brace for the possibility that ECDSA breaks before qday, in the worst case in months not years. By "break" I mean fast private key recovery (e.g. in one week) on available hardware (e.g. a large GPU cluster).
Recent days have been humbling for human mathematical intuition. Long-held, unquestioned hypotheses have fallen. This includes the n log(n) bound for integer multiplication and the 3SUM conjecture. In hindsight, May's unexpected disproof of the Erdős unit distance conjecture was our warning shot.
Yesterday's OpenAI drop made it clear that mathematical superintelligence is upon us. They say there are weeks where decades happen. We are about to live through weeks where centuries of mathematical progress happen. Could our magic 64-byte ECDSA signatures be too good to be true? Was it just security through obscurity all this time?
Elliptic curves feel especially vulnerable to superintelligence. Curves carry rich structure, with room for fancy tricks like Schoof, Frobenius, pairings. (By contrast, hashes are designed to minimise algebraic structure.)
Separately, as Ewin Tang can attest, an efficient quantum algorithm sometimes foreshadows an efficient classical one. We should be open to the possibility of a classical counterpart to Shor that breaks elliptic curves and RSA at once.
Also noteworthy is the striking under-representation of cryptographic breakthroughs among the 722 mathematical results OpenAI published. I've witnessed first-hand the US government censoring academic quantum cryptanalysis results. Backroom interventionism is my base case.
I urge large, sophisticated actors to lead by example. Project11's "risq list" (bitcoin-risq-list.projecteleven[.]com) is a great tracker of exposed BTC pubkeys. Binance, Bitbank, Robinhood, Bitfinex, and Tether have an opportunity to harden their cold storage. Next month I'll address institutions in London in a live Q&A (forum.ethereuminstitutional[.]org/london-2026).
Again, please do not rush. Wallets holding under 50 BTC enjoy partial cover from "Satoshi's shield", i.e. his 20K exposed addresses that hold 50 BTC each. Load-bearing signers like oracles and L2 security councils should consider rotating ECDSA pubkeys with every signed message and/or multi-signing with a hash-based schemes like SPHINCS.
Exiting bunker mode safely will require post-AI cryptography. My inclination is to go all-in on hash-based cryptography and avoid structured mathematical assumptions entirely, whether from curves, lattices, or isogenies. A single battle-tested hash (e.g. from the SHA or BLAKE families) yields plausible post-AI security.
The Ethereum roadmap on strawmap[.]org fully embraces hash-based cryptography with end-to-end formal verification as a response to the quantum threat. Those timelines must now be revisited and accelerated in light of mathematical superintelligence. I'll be pushing for maximum defensive acceleration.

Currently the only evidence of the moon landing is that there is a box that someone has that buzzes after a laser that no one can see bounces off it.
Maintaining these lies is what has destroyed actual science and innovation in America since at least 1970.
Palmer Luckey reveals the startup he'd build today: oxytocin doping to end divorce
"I would try to end the tragedy of divorce with oxytocin doping for marriage counseling."
"We understand mammal pair bonding pretty well. There's a lot of people who want to stay together. Most of the people who don't want to stay together should stay together, especially for their kids."
"And we can, if people think SSRIs are fine, which they're not, but if they were, then oxytocin doping to stay together is definitely fine."
"It's the mammal pair bonding chemical. There's things you can do to increase the uptake, and it's very well understood. Also, totally unregulated, which is great. Unregulated spaces are a lot easier to do. You can go buy a kilogram of oxytocin on Sigma Aldrich Chemical Supply right now, and if you do that, maybe you won't die alone."
"It's pure biology. It's used for women who don't bond with their kids, and now for women who don't bond with their husbands. It's also used for kids with various neurological issues, some kids with autism who struggle with pair bonding."
"The cool thing is it's a self-reinforcing loop. We understand that very well. Unlike most drugs, it doesn't form a chemical dependency. It actually unburdens you from a chemical dependency."
this is so fun
Below: an LLM loop is hooked into the Lisp REPL, and the LLM adds functions to the REPL as needed. These functions persist across application restarts.
Instead of the entire read_file + edit_file + bash compile loop, it's now just prompt functionality in the application as it runs.
